as my count down says, i have one month, two weeks and two days until i leave. the closer it gets to my departure the longer i feel it's taking to get here... every single day someone asks what i'm doing and i always end up telling them about americorps. every single day when i walk in my room i see that massive bag of all my stuff sitting in the corner waiting to be shipped to denver and i get more impatient.
luckily, i have my internship which has been taking up a very large portion of my time for the last month. i have to be up at six every morning in order to leave my house by seven and arrive in florence before eight. i think this has been good training getting me ready to be up super early for americorps! i work all day and by the time i get home (more than twelve hours after i woke up) i am so tired i fall asleep wherever i land. unfortunately, i have been so tired after work that i rarely even open my laptop during the week. so, my blogging has been sparse. my apologies. i hope this isn't how i will be when working with americorps... i was thinking about it yesterday and i came up with a solution- i don't know how my time will be spent during the weekdays or how worn out i'll be but i do promise to make a point of setting aside some time every weekend to update my blog and let yall know what i did that week. i think it's stupid to say i'll update my blog during the week since i know from the welcome packet and other things i've read online how busy we'll be, but i think aiming to update it during the weekends is quite possible! but don't be mad at me if i forget sometimes... but luckily, i've found on the facebook chats that it seems everyone else who is blogging is worried about this too so maybe we can hold each other accountable. oh, and there is talk of possibly doing a group blog. i have no clue how that would work and how we would go about posting updates but it sounded cool to me. that would give yall an idea of all the different things that americorps does. if we actually do this i'll post a link to it on my blog, which i would by the way keep.
alright, i'm not sure what else i have to say at the moment. i just felt like i hadn't updated my blog in a while so i was trying to get on top of it!
xoxo, B
