Waiting: Life of a Peace Corps Volunteer
I can't believe that I have only One month and One week left until I leave for Kenya. It seems so surreal. I have put in my two weeks notice at work, however, it doesn't seem as though I will ever leave :) In a way time seems to go by so quickly, yet so slowly. I feel like I have a million things to do, and at the same time I have nothing to do but wait. It doesn't seem that it is humanly possible to carry around so many contradictions. I have all these worries, all these fears, and I feel as though I am powerless to fix them. I just have to wait until I leave. Wait. Wait. I swear, I am writing a book when I get back. I believe I will call it Waiting: Life of a Peace Corps Volunteer. I feel bad too, because, I want to spend time with all of my family and friends and all that, but life has me so stressed out right now that I just want to sleep and veg out in front of the television. There are so many people I need to call, but as I say every week, "I'll do it on my day off".

That is an excellent title for a book. Beats the heck outta "Mango Elephants in the Sun." I think it would go to the top of the reccomendation list, right above "So You Wanna Join The PC" by the Dillion guy.
awww, thanx.
