Hmmm...

I have been thinking of ways to spice up my life lately.

I ADORE the kids I teach, and they fill my heart with so much love...it's a great feeling...but I am really in need of a challenge.

Yes, I take Mandarin lessons with a wonderful private tutor, and it's not easy, so I DO enjoy the challenge (although I am lazy about studying it!).

I REALLY want to go back to school, but I have been hesitant because I am not sure I want to pursue a teaching degree.

My first love always has been alternative medicine...well, I would rather call it Complementary Medicine. I have been thinking that it would be wonderful to combine a naturopathic "degree" with a Master's degree in Public Health.

Maybe this is a far fetched dream- but I would love to help integrate traditional and "natural" medicine in hospitals and clinics.

I KNOW the two can be combined. I am living proof that this combination works.

By the time I finish my training, we'll be ready to move back to the US (or not?).

I just want to study something I am passionate about.

Wish me luck!

  6. Sue ---- I think you'd be a NATURAL (;-)) for this. PLUS you've got the smarts (and the experience).

    I think you should go for it! You CAN do it.

    Sometimes I think I should've pursued a similar path.......

  8. I am at a crossroads, too.
    I am thinking along the lines of veterinary medicine - technician, to be exact.
    Good luck with whatever you decide, Sue!
