- My full-time internship at La Junta ends 7 August.
- I'm out of university a year now, at age 22.
- Looked at several outdoor education jobs for next year. Ran into difficulty because of housing and Richard's lack of work permit / green card 'til December. Frustration, tears, throwing things, etc.
- Was made aware of AmeriCorps City Year program from a good girl friend. Went through the application / interview process, was accepted. Decided it almost wasn't worth it (my heart was set on PeaceCorps and had been so since early high school.)
- Changed my thinking. Did more reading on City Year. I'm committed for 2009 - 2010 and thoroughly and completely ready.
- Will finish the summer running the stables and being part of the camp program staff. Possibly last (and fourth) summer here = sadness.
- Getting married to pretty awesome person on 14 August, a Friday. Super-brief honeymoon plans involve camping gear, canoe, and Silly Yellow Dog.
- Plan to move to inner-city San Antonio if not by August, then by December, once Richard can work. It'll be my first time in the middle of a big city— but I'm ready.
- After City Year? I'd like a camp / outdoor ed. job out-of-state for a few years. Possibly seasonal traveling.

I am thoroughly excited about you getting to move into downtown! As you know, once I moved away I really became to appreciate downtown so much more. Now that I'm 1000 miles away I like to go a few times a year. ha.
ReplyDeleteI think it's also pretty awesome that you've been able to be involved in so much in only a few years! I've been thinking about what I could do that would be different and fun for awhile. Hmm. still clueless on that front.
