Shaina's Travel Blog

Okay, this is my first entry of what is going to be the most exciting travel blog in the whole WORLD! Why? Because I am writing it and I promise that I will have many exciting,breathtaking,neardeath,mindboggling adventures that will make you sit on the edge of your seat and read through the small spaces between your fingers as you cover your face in terror! but then you will wipe your eyes from laughing so hard and breath a sigh of relief because there will always be a happy ending (damn I hope so)...But for now I am going to bore you to death with paperwork, paperwork, and more paperwork...
so, I am officially an invitee, and for non-peace corps people let me explain what that means. When you apply for Peace Corps you have to go through 5 steps til you become a volunteer...I am on step 3.
I am filling out visa applications, peace corps passport applications, life insurance (in case I die out there in field), loan deferment papers, resumes, aspiration statements, and packing at the same time...So I am keeping myself fairly busy...As the date for departure nears...(scary)
On a sidenote I had a really cool dream in which Mick Jagger made an appearance and I got to talk to him about the album Sticky Fingers (my personal fave) over dinner...I woke up feeling like a close friend of Mick's and I had to remind myself that it was all just a dream (sniff) oh and ill probably bore you to tears as I recount my dreams which I am very fond of doing!
That's about it for now, don't forget to check in once in awhile...But I wont be leaving until Aug. 6th.
