Decision time

So once again I am in limbo. I spoke with a placement officer yesterday and she gave me a few options. The first is a secondary teacher training program leaving in June to Central Asia. I don't think I want that particularly. The second is a secondary teacher training program leaving in April to Asia. My best guess is that it would be to Indonesia. It sounds good, but it's a recently started program, which means I will most likely be the first volunteer ever in the area. That makes it exponentially more difficult. Also, although it would be really far away and expensive for people to visit.

The third option is a primary environmental education program to Central/South America, the part of the world I REALLY want to be in. It looks like it's probably going to be in either Peru or Paraguay. That would be pretty awesome. But the catch is that it doesn't leave until September. That's an awful long time to wait... Also, if it's Paraguay, we'll forever be identically identical twins. Same AP classes in high school, the Double Reed Twins in band, went to the same college (though different majors so it wasn't so bad), and now possibly the same country and SAME PROGRAM for Peace Corps. On the plus side, I've been to Paraguay before and I already know I like the country, and I know people there so it will be a little easier. And Gabi says I am not allowed to be more guapa than her. That's okay, I am lazy and will do my best to be exactly as guapa as her, if not even less so.

I have some serious thinking to do. I'll have about a week to make a decision, but unfortunately it's just about the busiest week of the entire year. So welcome stress, I guess you're here to stay for a while.
