| Peace Corps update:
I got my invitation to serve in West Africa (I will find out details later this week) helping with Environmental Education and my departure date is July 7th. A little far, but I know it will come fast. I plan on writing more when I get my packet of info this week. So until then....

| One more semester left... and I am done...
ready.... sure?
though I think I finally found a niche here, but it's hard.
Rough because I want to leave here for another country for TWO years....
difficult maybe? But I want it... I NEED IT
But it's weird, I've changed so much, I keep evolving into different persons (?)... I'm not saying it's a bad thing... But it is different... really different.
I'm still mentally trying to figure that one out, so I will leave it hanging.
I just had one of several different GOOD talks tonight... and it was definitely needed and leaves me in a spot as it has in the past where I'm thinking... what to do... (this sounds deep? maybe? but in reality, it's just one of those much needed discussions. It's the first time in awhile where I'm not thinking on how to memorize the next material for a test. whatever)
anyways... once again.. I leave with a very inadequate post... but I really just want to sit and think... my mind is going a million miles a second, yet I still feel.... feel?
what are you going to do? going home should be real interesting?

| Well.. break was well needed.. a much needed break, yet I didn't get what I wanted to get done. It's wierd to be back home. I used to go home and still have the feeling that I could conquer everything in the town.... Now I go back.. and I don't know where I would really like to hang out... what I like to do... I spent most of break with my parents.. which isn't horrible.. just different.
But it was not horrible. I still saw friends.. which was good... and Beowulf... which obviously wasn't... but worth the laugh...
I had a much-needed eye appointment.. which was annoying.. but the doc finally figured out that I have a slight astigmatism in my right eye, so he gave me a new contact for my right eye. It definitely does not feel right.. so I am pretty excited about getting my new glasses. It will be weird to wear glasses finally though... glasses with the correct prescription....
So I guess we will see how that goes...
I officially applied to the Peace Corps. I really need to do this. I have to set up an interview tomorrow to get this up and running. They really need French speakers in Africa, so that would be cool if I get in.
If I don't? I don't know what I'm going to do.
Other than that, not a whole lot new. I'm just trying to finish up this semester. Not much time left.
Hopefully a better quality entry sometime shortly... I should work on my French

| GOOOODMORNING FRIDAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Today is a great day, because campus doesn't call my name until 9 AM. I finally got to sleep in until 7:30 and here I am... Blogging.
There's not much new around here. Well some new faces, which is always fun, but other than that... It's been pretty quiet. I feel like once again I have taken too much for the semester... but I am still floating... Maybe next semester will be better? If not, that's alright... I just want to get a job...
Though that's already causing some problems... Damn books keep making me think too much... If you want to discuss it, it would be much easier face to face. Though I just babble incoherently no matter what time of day it is.
I got some sweet paychecks this week, but only because I forgot that I worked more than I could handle... but the large paycheck does make me feel better about it. Now I can pay bills, bills, and more bills.
We (housemates) keep trying to keep our roommate Kevin in Morris for next semester. He came up with the brilliant idea to brew beer. He just wants to find someone that would let him do that as an Independent Study. I told him he could brew beer and I would run the restaurant, making foods to match his beers. OHHHH dream jobs....
If someone would have told me in high school while I was working fast food that I would want to cook for the rest of my life even though I would have had a degree in biology and French... I would have laughed...
Unfortunately... since I feel that I would be wasting my degrees...I can't do that yet... not until I change my mind. But here's what could work.... I work at an environmental education French camp where I teach kids how to cook outdoors? hahah it's worth a shot.
Well, I suppose I could get ready for the day?
Over and Out
