Okay, so, the thing I was waiting for happened. A volunteer orientation at Newton Wellesley. It doesn't sound exciting, but it was! I don't know why, but for some reason I really want to do some kind of work and/or help out at a hospital. I have a weird pull towards it. I don't know why. Maybe it has something to do with my obsession over Grey's Anatomy? And ER? And House?
No, I don't think I want to become a doctor, or a nurse, etc. Or maybe I do? I don't know. I just really want to try something new, and my thought process is: If I like all of the above medical TV shows, what are the chances that it's just a coincidence? I like more than the drama, that's for sure. So maybe I like the medical cases in the shows, too (even if, as I've heard tell, they're often unrealistic and would be impossible in real life)? In any case, I do want to volunteer somewhere (don't forget those college aps!), and why not here?
I like Newton Wellesley Hopsital. It's got a nice atmosphere. And of course, I want to take any chance I can to learn something by doing it and by observing it, rather than from a textbook.
Speaking of textbooks, school starts in a week. I am NOT ready for Junior year. Or maybe I am, with all the SAT prep I've done this summer, and all the math I've learned (or have pretended to learn :-P) at Cape Cod - the camp. Wow, all this indecisiveness really tells a lot about my self-confidence. Great. Well, in any case, my strategy this year will be the same as last. Just more extreme. Homework will probably take over my life.
Bye bye, life.
Oh, eventually I'm planning to post a story I wrote last year - it was for English class originally. I really like it, and I'd love to get as much feedback on it as is possible, that is, with the squashable amount of views this blog gets and all.
I'm keeping the world in suspense until then.
