The Flume

Friday, 8.15.08
Okay so I'm working hard but also
trying to play hard. I work every other weekend
so I try and get out and do something awesome on
the weekends I have off. I was able to hike
to Massachusetts highest peak. I also went
and saw the Flume Gorge in the White Mountains, which
cost $12, but it had to be the most beautiful thing
I have ever seen. Lots of pictures of all those
fun events.
Last Saturday I finally go to Hike
Mount Washington, the highest point in New England. It
was phenomenal! Those pictures will be in my
August update. So patiently wait you
must.
I don't think I've gone into any
new details about my work. In summary, I have
totally switched careers. I'm now working as
a Mental Health Specialist in entry level position
at a world class Mental Hospital here in Boston.
I'm doing the job to figure out what I want to be
when I grow up. It's
been great so far, I actually feel like I'm giving
back to the world, imagine that. I love the
patients. I'm trying to decide between Psychology
or Nursing as a long term career goal. Right
now becoming a Psych Nurse Practitioner seems very
appealing. You can
do talk therapy, prescribe medicine, less schooling,
wide variety of jobs and security, and better pay. It
might be the route for me. We'll see. Right
now just enjoying learning about the field.
And don't worry, of course I saw
The X-Files 2 movie
on opening night! (I think I may have been the only
one who saw it). Of
course I loved it in all it's Mulder & Scully greatness. The
actual plot was rather average monster of the week
TV episode, but the Mulder/Scully moments were greatness. Haven't
seen Batman yet,
but that just doesn't excite me as much. I
did watch the first season of Dexter on
DVD, which was awesome. Love Michael C. Hall.
