I have begun posting more regularly and find it to be a nice break from the monotony of work. You see, I am working less hours in the office, as most of the things that I am working on can be done at home. So I bring it home with me to get some of it done, and it goes by rather quickly. I don't know if I just like working at home better or that there are less immediate distractions. You know the constant barrage of e-mail, the phone endlessly ringing and people coming into your office to see if you boss is there, not say one word and then turn around and walk out again. I find it rather annoying really. But I digress.

Last night, I happened to turn on the TV and to my surprise I heard a familiar voice emanating from the screen. A friend from college was on the popular show, "Deal or No Deal". I knew her as Kacie Wooster, but she is now Kacie Bell. She looked good, if not different but her vivacious spirit was still very evident. She went on to win almost $200,000 dollars. It was fun to see another person, from what seems another life, doing well and making something of themselves, even if it is on a game of luck.

As Janeen has finished up her masters degree, it has got me thinking about people and what motivates them. What is it that pushes people to do the things that they want to in life? Is it solely the motivation to buy and sell goods to each other or are we more aware of ourselves than that?

It has got me thinking about what I want to do. I had a conversation with Janeen about attempting to take the MCAT's. The draw to become a doctor has always been on the back of my mind and I don't believe that it was put there by accident. I am just trying to figure out what to do with that. I am thinking about taking a MCAT study book to the Peace Corps and studying that while we are there to see if that is something that I am capable of doing. If I fail the practice exam a few times, I think that would be answer enough. Until that time, I am left wondering...
