I think…

…I’m going to join the Peace Corps when I’m done with this leg of school. My friend Kelly just came to visit for about 24 hours, she got back from her trip/mission/whatever the Peace Corps calls it, in Africa. I’m trying to suck as much interesting and amaze out of the time I have here, and this is looking like a good next step. So Education and Youth Outreach, hopefully in Peru (really, anywhere is fine, though I really want to visit central/south America). Oh, and Juli just got back from a medical mission trip in Guatemala. Sitting in the Bay is beginning to make me very antsy, though I do appreciate the variety I have available within an hour drive. I really love being young, unmarried, and able to forgo comfort.

Other than that, I’ve been rummaging in my mom’s book collection (she’s been amassing a large-ish library since the seventies, I think, and there are some real gems), and pretending to learn the guitar. Pretending because I need new strings and haven’t pulled it together enough to get someone to help me restring. But my dad’s Ovation is sitting within reach, along with several exercises just looking at me plaintively waiting to be delved into while I waste time messing on facebook. I can play the two chord song from Juno.
