All professional and stuff

Well, in an attempt to develop a professional identity online (and to have places to refer others to that I might meet through school/work/etc), I've created a professional webpage/blog/resource/research gathering site and a professional facebook resume.

My facebook resume is viewable HERE.

My website/bloggish thing is viewable HERE.

Link to the Conference Pictures !!!!

You can either click the title of this post or click HERE to view pictures and thoughts as they occurred in real time throughout the Baton Rouge-New Orleans-LCA adventure...:) Good friends, food, fun, and good times :):):)

New Orleans ... LCA... and FUN!

I'll be posting a link later that will lead to pictures and other fun stuff. I just spent the last few days (Friday-Mon) traveling for the local Louisiana Counseling Association conference. It was my first conference and a ton of fun! Here's just a brief run down of everything. It's a lil boring summarized like this, but I promise the next posts will be more fun:):):) (OOOOOOhhhh...pretty pictures!!!) :)

FRI - I went in to Baton Rouge and stayed with my friend Brittany, who I was riding with for the conference. We went out for sushi and checked out the local Buddhist temple! That was AWESOME. The temple I normally go to is in Lafayette and is a Tibetan based temple whereas the one in Baton Rouge has a large Vietnamese-American population and also centers more on Zen style while the one in Lafayette is more sutra based. It was a lot of fun to see and experience the differences and I hope to go back on occassion.

SAT - Me and Brit picked up Summer and headed into New Orleans. We went on a cemetery tour (which I'll post pics from in the link) and later that night we went to Port of Call (best burgers EVER!) and Pat O'Brien's (Mmmmmmmmm... Hurricanes!). That night we went swimming on the roof top pool:)

SUN - We met up with some other counseling-buddies and went to Cafe du Monde for beignets and coffee. Sessions started at 2, I went to HYPNOSIS (muhahahaha...) and later on went to the opening session (loved the clip from the movie UP!).

Mon - I went to 3 sessions (internet, co-ocurring disorders, and crisis intervention). For lunch we went to Lil Dizzy's (which was yummmy and not expensive ...I HIGHLY recommend)! And, after the last session I met up with everyone in Pete's Pub (where a grad student reception was going on) and we left back for Baton Rouge & then I drove home....:)
