This is the first time I have ever done anything like this. Communicating or expressing myself in a public setting. Going into peace corps I figured it be a good time to start simply to keep friends and family informed of the whole process. I submitted my application on June 30th. Emotions needless to say all over the place. Joining peace drops was something I talked about for years and now I actually started the process. Crazy to think that possibly in a year I could be somewhere else, entirely differnt culture starting a new chapter in my life. I went from being super excited to slightly worried. I have place almost all my apples in this basket. Future plans hinge on peace corp.
It took peace corps roughly three weeks to call me and inform me that, They have received my application. I also received mail for all the finger printing and legal clearances. Also found out that they don't accept professors as close friends so I need to have a actual friend write me a letter. Lucky me Kara, my room mate and close friend since I started college, agreed to help me out.
So here I sit, waiting for clearances and paperwork to be finished. Then I can hurry up and wait lol. Good thing I got a year left of school to occupy my mind!
