However, I certainly could use some work improving mine.
Today I got just a tad more impatient than what I've been lately and decided to email someone in the Peace Corps Placement Office to get an update on my application status. I am not sure if what I know now is better or worse to know. The PC Placement Assistant informed me that everyone is experiencing delays in receiving invitations and being placed.
I already knew that there can be unexpected delays along the road of becoming a Peace Corps Volunteer. No big deal. However, what new information I gathered is that...I may not hear anything more for ANOTHER COUPLE OF MONTHS!
Oh, how my lack of patience is getting to me today. I orginally was nominated for a program in Sub-Saharan Africa that would depart in April 2012. The way it is sounding now is that I may not hear what program I will be invited to until March or April. Who knows when I will be heading to new parts of this world.
I'll continue to take care of the beautiful baby calves at home here and will keep y'all posted if anything changes!
