Back to work

This is to chronicle my journey of applying and serving the Peace Corps

Hello All,
So for a while my posts will be few and far between. All I can say is that I finally asked my boss for my 3rd recomendation letter. She will write it. yay! So everything goes in, in september. I know its really early, but I want to make certain that I have everything I need.
My other boss ( I acutally have three) applied for PC, and talking with her really enforced my idea of what joining.
On the work front--still working for Orientation. I had a three week break. On this break I
a. went to a friends 21st birthday party and got to chat with Dutch saliors
b.looked after my cousins
c. Slept in and went to my class.
its going really well. Oh the things Ive learned.
I have a week of straight orientation work coming up and then another straight week! . so wish me luck
Lauren
