been a long time...

i feel like it's been an eternity since my last post..these last few weeks of training have been pretty hectic and nearly all of our time had been accounted for until just last week..this week we've had a bit more free time on our hands, and as such, we've spent a lot of it together..there are 50 of us, and we know that once we all leave for our permanent sites we won't be seeing each other nearly as much..it's definitely bittersweet..we're all ready to get started working, but it'll be hard to just leave these 49 other people behind after spending so much time with them over the last 10 weeks...

so, we have our swear in this thursday...then i get to go to my future site...once i get there i'll have fairly regular internet access, so i'll be able to e-mail/skype more regularly....and will definitely be expecting some calls...

anyway, just wanted to give everyone a quick update since it had been a while...

talk to you all soon!


ps..almost forgot to mention, with all the time i spent on studying shqip, i actually somehow did a fairly decent job on the language test..i scored in the "intermediate medium" range...not sure how it happened, but i'll take it...
