Back At It

Ok, so the last time I worked on my Peace Corps application was the end of April, 3 months ago. I originally had to stop filling it out and figure out how to get ahold of previous employers to be able to put their contact info, but I got all that info in May... I am in love with my life and my friends and thinking about leaving them, even though it most likely wouldn't be for over a year (or more), I know that was a part of what was keeping me from working on it. Then there was a trip to Europe and having mono. Now I am back and well and tomorrow my friend leaves for Africa for 5 months. My admiration for and jealousy of her motivated me to start working on the application again! So I started back at it tonight. Now I am waiting to hear back from a couple people who were in charge of my volunteer experiences. Other than that, I only have my practical experiences and essays left before submitting the online application. When I realized I only had 2 sections left, it scared me again so I stopped for the night. But I promise to get back to it soon. Feel free to keep me accountable to that!
