So, I have been asked by a lot of people if I plan to blog while I work with Teach for America in New Mexico for the next two years. I've never blogged before so this is all new to me, and it's entirely possible that after this post I will completely forget I even have a blog to update. But I'll do my best. As of right now, it's a week before I leave for the intensive two month training session in Phoenix, AZ, so basically I'm just attempting to sort everything out before I leave. It's already feeling very overwhelming, and I'm realizing that for the first time in my life I will soon realize what it means to be an adult. Should be interesting. For those who are willing, I'd love some prayers for safe travel (what with all the road tripping I'll be doing in the near future), for guidance in my job and appartment searches, and for a support system down in New Mexico. That's probably the thing that is worrying me the most - the lack of family and friends I will have around me to lean on when it gets challenging (as the corps has assured me it will).
Anyways, nothing very interesting to add as of yet. Hopefully I remember to post again later.
