Jane Goodall

I decided to do my research on Jane Goodall. iQuest requires me to research about someone in respect to the field I'm currently in. Jane Goodall has worked with monkeys/chimps for a long time, trying to learn more about them and save them from human destruction. I wasn't entirely thrilled, but last night I did a little extra research to pump me up for today's seminar and learned that Jane is also an Environmentalist and (I'm pretty sure) a Humanitarian!

Before my friend recommended Goodall, all I knew was that she worked with monkeys or chimps. I'm not a huge fan of monkeys but this environmentalist/humanitarian stuff really catches my eye. I really want to learn about her journey to become who she is today. Right now she looks like Gandhi to me- she believed in something and promoted it to the max extent. She gives no crap about what others think of her and easily brushed off a comic that mocked her that was distributed to a mass of people. I'll be looking forward to seeing how she dealt with her failures and how she impacted people all over.

Lacking Enthusiasm?

There has been very little to say lately. My internship frustrates me. I went on Friday and it took me a few minutes to realize... my mentor was missing! Quel domage! I didn't know what to do so I asked the vet techs and I ended up shadowing the doctor covering for my mentor. I introduced myself and what not but I don't think he's had a person shadow him before because he went on into appointments without telling me! I spend a lot of my time watching vet techs in between appointments so Dr. Dowd usually comes around to warn me when her next appointment arrives. AHHHHH. I didn't want to barge into an appointment! I had 20 minute intervals where I wasn't learning anything. There wasn't anything to do. On the upside however, there's a kitten up for adoption that's SUPER nice. Her name's Anna she's maybe 3 months old and cuddles like no other. 

Hoop wise- also disappointing. I did indeed get a polypro hoop off of hoop mamas about one or two weeks ago. I'm not very sure. It's been very hard to transition from a clunky hoop to a feather light super small one. I can't do half the tricks I used to and now my old hoop is practically useless to me, it's way to heavy to go back to. The thing that's bugging me is that I can't dance for my life. I'm proud of what I can do, but I cannot incorporate everything into a smooth looking dance. 

Also, I've been feeling disconnected. There's nothing to do, then there's a lot that I haven't done that I need to get back onto. I think I'm using this blog as a decoy, I want to stay on the internet and do nothing. I need a personal motivator or a life changing event for insight into what I need to do next. 

Instead of leaving this post so dreadful, I think I'll make a few goals for myself.
1. Finish the last college application

2. Enjoy company
