Whether I intend to or not, I have found myself counting
throughout the whole Peace Corps process. At the beginning it was a countdown
full of excitement and anticipation - I was counting the days until I
heard from placement. Then I had to count down 6 months until I left for
Paraguay, 10 weeks until I swore-in as a volunteer, 10 months until I passed a
year in country, and most recently, I passed the one-year as a volunteer mark. So what
does that mean? It means that rather than counting up, I am now counting down. I
have passed the biggest time hurdles the Peace Corps job comes with, and now am
on the downward slope. It means that the countdown has changed from excitement to a ticking
bomb, moving fast towards the inevitable… I officially have less than a year
left here in Paraguay. But, rather than be depressing by talking about all I
have left to do and see, I am going to share with you some great moments from
the past few months. Moments that make this job worthwhile. Moments that makes
the timeline of the Peace Corps not so daunting after all.
