Peace Corps: Step 1

I have just submitted my Peace Corps application. This is step one in the process of becoming a volunteer. I am very excited. Being a Peace Corps volunteer is something that I have dreamed about since I was a small boy. I have been waiting, since I was 12 or 13 for the time when I am ripe for the experience. I believe that volunteer service has much to offer me, but also that I am a good candidate for service and that I have just as much to offer to the people I would be serving.

New Year’s Resolution

Five things that I’m going to do in 2012:

    1) Practice saying “no” to unnecessary and extra commitments.
    2) Make more time for yourself:

      -Exercise in small increments throughout the week instead of trying to make up for days of remaining sedentary
      -Play more ukulele
      -Enjoy more video games (my two most-passionate hobbies)
      -Go to shows
      -See friends
      -Read for pleasure

    3) Eat more fruit
    4) Get more A’s
    5) Go abroad
