So soon, so so....not soon

here we are on the first day of me aknowledging the future. Peace Corps service fast approaches, and yet it doesnt. It looks as though ill be stateside until at least sometime in july, but then making others wait seems to be the raison d'etre for the PC, so i am supposedly content in doing so. with a vauge " maybe west africa'' as the only bit of geography i can currently pine away for, i really dont know how to feel other than joyous at the prospect, but I might as well be going to space, because i know as much about that as i do about anywere else they may send me.
Nervous? NO. although my french is coming along slowly and not speaking the local language does render me somewhat usless. I do study everyday, but my god! how many homonyms can one language have, and they certainly dont seem to care much for economy in there use of the alphabet, but its so darn purty so i plug away. these entries will be spare between now and the time i leave, maybe an update pre trip, but once abroad i hope to use this as a link to life as i knew it. for what ever it was worth.
