No, not yet... please.

I don't want it to be over now or ever really. Yes, I could use a different location and loads more money, but i still dont want it to be over. My honeymoon. My sabbatical. My refresher. My sanity break. My bum time. My break from reality. Whatever you want to call it, I don't want it to be over. Unfortunately, i think it's about that time. I am officially on the market and I'm not coming off until an offer is accepted.

It was sort of dramatic as I was submitting the first application. My heart was fluttering. Memories were swarming. My hands were sweating. Panic was rising. Seriously, I needed to get a grip, but I kind of couldn't. I was trying to decide if i was ready to let the present go and move towards the future. I mean, do I remember how to interview. I know how to interview others, but it's been a minute since I was on the recieving end.

The mini panic attack lasted about 20 minutes too long, but all was well. I went on to submit a few more applications, and now Im playing the waiting game.

I made another decision that could change my life forever...literally. I'm applying to Peace Corps. A remarkable organization that i would be beyond thankful to be a part of. It's truly mind boggling though to think that I could be leaving in just a few months. I'm completely down for the cause and think i could be be of some help.

I can't really imagine what it would be like to completely give myself to another culture like they do in Peace Corps. 27 months living in and being a part of a completely different world. Those who know me know of all my ridiculous allergies and dislikes - Shellfish, fruit, grass, wood, bugs, sharing food, nature, etc. So know that the living arangement is not easy for me to wrap my head around, but the cause outweighs all that crap.. except for the allergies. I'll be talking with the recruiter about how I can make it out alive. I would like to do that. I haven't been extended an invitation yet, so I'm still pretty calm about not having the luxuries that America provides. Wathc the video below and go to the Peace Corps website for more info.



I'm really excited about where my life is about to take me even though I'll be losing this massive amount of free time. it will all be worth it though. I'm certain of that.
