Place AND Purpose!

after a ridiculous hiatus AND having a required something for which i can procrastinate, i'm resuming BLOGging (it's fun to say if you say it slooowly)
i can't promise this will be interesting or amusing, but it IS me.

i have my Peace Corps placement! I am going to Rwanda!! i'm going to work with the ministry of health and approved organizations and agencies to work on HIV/AIDS awareness and prevention! there will be a large element of working with orphans and vulnerable children(OVCs) and especially those at highest risk for transmission...young women.
of course, this is just a word description, a blurb on an experience that will be all-consuming and all-encompassing and will take over my life...likely for the rest of it.
it's a commitment beyond two years and as of right now, i could NOT be more excited to undertake it! let the preparation begin!
