More and more.

Still here!

Yesterday, I had a decent conversation with my friend Patrick on our drive down to Fredonia.  Pat is the friend who urged me to join AmeriCorps and who now has a full-time position through them!  He’s doing PR work which involves a lot of media stuff, so it’s right up his alley.  

So our discussion mostly centered around AmeriCorps and what its members mean to it as a whole.  I ended up really excited and hopeful for what I’m about to do.  My interview is on Wednesday and honestly, I couldn’t be more excited. I’ve also been reading some personal blogs of people who have been in AmeriCorps and are sharing their experience. First there is Soni’s blog which was the first one I stumbled upon. She’s been going pretty steady and has a lot to offer. She’s considering writing a book full of individuals and their experience with AmeriCorps. I spent about an hour reading her blog and then found Capitol Rear View. This one reads like a novel. I read it in it’s entirety in one sitting.

But more than anything both of these blogs have just made me feel more confident with my decision and that it’s exactly what I need to be doing right now.

So that’s that! I’ll more than likely post on Wednesday after my interview. After that I imagine my postings will be a bit more scheduled.
