How to get addicted to Ingress.

-
Play.


That should be the end of this post but I'll elaborate. Ingress is extremely addicting and extremely fun. It's surprisingly satisfying to watch a Buster blow away someones defenses and claim it for the good guys *cough enlightened cough*

Here's what I've done for my home town from 01/02 to 01/06.



Ingress is a lot of things and has a lot of strategies. Not only are you actively moving to these portals which can be difficult in Maine winters but you have to think ahead about placing links and fields, It's like triangular Tetris. It would be more fun to play in a more portal heavy town like Boston, Paris, or London. I like holding my ground though. I've got 14 portals in my area to hack and link to my hearts content. This winter I'll be driving and running shortly through snow, but when Ingess goes into an open Beta, (I'm guessing this summer) I'll be actually jogging from portal to portal. It's going to be a great way to get outside and enjoy the world around you instead of just the one in your computer, I'm looking at you Lvl 85 paladin.

I've enjoyed my first few day on Ingress and I'm sure I'll continue to enjoy it. To request an invite just go to Ingress.com! and choose +Ingress Enlightened

Finally! I have in my hands my NREMT certification and my Maine EMS license! Thank you mail man! My pretty little certification Some swag! I don't know what I'm going to put it on. I might get a spring coat and put it on that. Last but not lease my NREMT card!  I'm also signed up for my Paramedic class in September which is good. It will be interesting to try and manage work, school, and life but i'm excited for the challenge. I would be interested to hear some poor medic student stories if People have them.

Reading 2014: Peter Pan.

-
Wow. What a fun book . At 200 pages it's a quick read. However! The book still covers a lot not seen in the Disney movie, shocker right? Well, I'm sure most everyone has seen the Disney movie of Peter Pan. So the plot of the book was used for the movie. What I enjoyed about the book so much more is the narrator acts like a living entity in the story! Suppose, to make her happy, we whisper to her in her sleep that the brats are coming back. They are really within two miles of the window now, and flying strong, but all we need whisper is that they are on the way. Let's. It is a pity we did it, for she has started up, calling their names; and there is no one in the room but Nana. ~ Peter Pan, Pg 188. It makes you feel like you're a ghost, quietly following the stories and adventures of Peter, Wendy, and the Lost boys. Only rarely whispering into their world, When you do though... Bone chilling. Even just reading that the narrator is doing it pulls you that much tight...

60 Hours a week.

Hello. My name is Nicholas. I work for a private Ambulance. Now that I am fully oriented I work 60 hrs a week. I couldn't be happier, or more tired. I'm making major bank. ------------------------------------------      Anyways.... So I'm working Delta for real now and It's both fun and tiring. I'm working nights on the BLS truck, I get to take care of your sweet hearted granny!..... And your crazy ass uncle that's a Vietnam vet... so it's a fair trade. After a week I was on Reddit EMS  and they had a good post about gear guys carry. pretty standard info. Good stethoscope, trauma shears, pen. well  I have all of those... but it's a lot to keep in your pockets and when you're trying to catch a quick nap  it sucks to have shears stabbing your quad. So I went and ordered a molle drop leg with some pouches. I'll see how it goes and post pics and such when I get everything in and running.      Now I know I should take some ...
