I got a letter from UT about becoming a member of the Alpha Eta Society, a national honor society for allied health professionals. It costs $15 to join. I'm always wary about societies that want money! Y'all think it's worth it? I guess it's cool to have it on the resume, but have no idea if it's like, prestigious, or one of those crap kinda things where you get invited if you showed up to class once in thirty years. It LOOKS like you have to have a 3.8 or above at the very least, but not sure if that was specific to a random school or in general.
I've been messing way too much on Facebook tonight.
Had a pretty good couple of days overall...don't feel like writing much else for now I guess. It turns out I can't interview for my special hope/dream job until after I pass boards which is at hopefully only about a month away, so I am SOMEWHAT playing the waiting game for now. Not really though because I am using the time to investigate/explore job options, study for boards, volunteer, and possibly take a crash immersion course in Spanish for health professionals, we'll see.
Ok I've hit my limit for the night. Good night.

Karen,
I am so very excited to see your blog....and to hear that you haven't taken a job offer yet! I haven't read all of your blogs.....but would REALLY love to speak with you about joining our group of Private Practice Occupational Therapists in Akron, Ohio.
I have just put together a website (that needs some professional help, but I can't afford it right now, so it really isn't for public viewing), that explains what we are doing. I'll post it here for you just because I figured you'd enjoy seeing it in progress!
I know it's a long shot, but HEY.....maybe you have family or friends in Akron....OR, maybe you'd like to be mentored by a group who will give you GREAT freedom (you need freedom, Karen, you are TOO good to be pushed into a mold)....and support.
Check out what we are doing:

You give me hope for the profession, Karen.
