I never thought I'd be a blogger...

goodness gracious... i always read and kept track of amber and lauren's blogs but i never thought i'd have one myself. i'll be perfectly honest, i'm not quite sure how good i'll be at this! i'm always criticizing lauren for never keeping hers up to date but i will probably forget a few times to write. oh, and i apologize in advance- yes, amber and lauren have nice and neat blogs that are grammatically correct, but mine won't be. it's faster and easier for me to type how i do without going back and checking every little thing i've done! so, let's work with it!
anyways, the reason behind my blog is that i have been accepted to join americorps nccc (i got my official welcome package in the mail yesterday!). i am really really excited! i'll be stationed in denver, colorado BUT i will be sent off on at least four different "spikes." i will be assigned at least four spikes throughout my ten months of service. a spike could be in any one of the seven states in my region. at the spike we could do anything from helping kids learn to read to help building houses to helping clean up after a natural disaster.
my group will consist of eight to twelve people with a group leader. my group will travel together to spikes and work them. but there will be five or more groups stationed in denver with us. we'll all be living at an old air force base where we will meet for training when we first arrive and where we will go back to regroup after a spike is over.
ermmmmm i'm not quite sure what else i need to say at the moment... BUT if i remember anything else i will add to this!
oh and please work with me on the blog... i'm trying to figure this jank out... i'll have to get amber to sit down and give me a lesson!
thanks for keeping track of my adventure! i hope i do a good job of informing yall!
xoxo, B
