False Alarm

Apparently the 6 month marriage requirement is just a recommendation, not a requirement. Not yet anyways. It funny how something you here somewhere can spread like wildfire in a matter of hours, expecially on the internet.

Lately I've been having doubts about what I'm studying right now. I think the Peace Corps might point me in the 'right' direction, if there is such a direction. I'm really hoping to teach english, but I'm also really hoping to get a nomination for Latin America, which would mean I wouldn't be teaching english as a primary project. I want to go to Latin America because I think that being a native speaker and knowing about Latin American culture would allow me to be a more effective volunteer. But I also want to learn a new language because I think that's one of the things I'm good at. Language class has been my favourite class since elementary school. Imagine me in Bulgaria... a pseudo-Cuban speaking Bulgarian! What a funny sight.

We'll have been married for 10 months by the time we go to Peace Corps in Sept.

But, we were told, that you can hand the certificate over the day you leave. Proly an exaggeration, but....

Don't worry about the six month thing.
