Motivation

I've been in transition mode for the last several weeks.
I quit my part time clinic job, for a full time one at a different hospital. It feels really good to get more hands on experience, and I am so grateful for this opportunity...however it's been quite the adjustment. There are some catty bitches that work there that really -are- out to get you.

I haven't figured out why, but I know one of them refuses to acknowledge my existence because I'm going to veterinary school. Is she afraid I'm going to take her job? Is she worried I'll soon know more than she because of my education? I have no clue; all I k ow is she feels threatened despite my best efforts to be friendly and try to get to know her. It's ok, it is. Because I am fully aware that not every is going to get along. I just would like my work/professional life to be pleasant.

I see any challenge at this hospital as an opportunity to learn and become a better person. I hope to squeeze every drop of knowledge from this place before I leave.

All in all I've been lacking major motivation lately.
Somehow I've developed this kind of tunnel vision where I'm only looking at my end result: Texas move. ndnd as my desire to leave this place continually grows, I've decided I must be proactive. I don't want my final year in hawaii to be laced with negativity.
I'm determined to find the beauty of Oahu. Now obviously there is a lot of "natural" beauty, but as a whole -culture, people, land, and day to day life- I'm determined to find the beauty.

This project will be called Operation: find aloha.
My job is to take a picture everyday until I move. It doesn't matter what the photos are of as long as it's something that I'm attracted to and that I find interesting.
The point is to force me to stop and pay attention to my surroundings; to not pass through this last year with blinders on. I don't want this part of my life to be associated with negativity.

It's been a pivotol moment in my life and I should soak in as much of it as I can.

Another goal I have (something I've been wanting to do since I moved here is go sky diving over North Shore. (and then when I return to Texas I'll be sky diving there too.)

School starts in 6 days. Better start giving myself a pep talk early. It's gonna be a crazy semester!
