It is officially my last 26 days of my life as a Peace Corps Volunteer.
It's so weird that this "title" that has defined me for the past 26 months of my life, will no longer be. As Americans, we define ourselves with our job titles and work positions and how much we make. Well, as of May 27th, I'll be "unemployed". The worst title in the book as far as our culture is concerned.
However, I'm going to make an hontest effort to not worry so much about the "title" of what I do and more on who I am. I'd prefer to think of myself in terms of the good I'm doing then just as "unemployed."
Just a little food for thought.
Today is the start of May and almost all things summer related! If you're from Maryland you know that means the start of crab season and Old Bay going on everything!
Which means amazing afternoons filled with friends, sun, laughter and good food. I. Can't. Wait.
However, until then I have alot to accomplish here, and alot of goodbyes (or hasta luego) to start saying. I'm fairly busy trying to finish up my various projects (english class, business plans, tourism groups, boy scouts, etc, etc,etc).
BUT...I really need to get back into the habit of exercising atleast once a day. This is going to start tomorrow. Today I was a complete and total bum.
Easter candy got the best of me today and so did the rain, which means I was feeling lazy and still haven't changed out of my PJs. oops.
Tomorrow I'm going to charge up my iPod and attempt to work on some Couch 2 5k business and get this program started (and also the exercise/weightloss business going again)!
And let's be hontest...I have not only my wedding (in however many months), but I also have a few friends (really great friends) weddings coming up as well and I'd prefer to look great for them also!
Here's to a healthy and happy first week of May!

May is my favorite month of the year! It always seems like the busiest too, but that's because there are so many fun outdoor things to do, cookouts, and yes, Crabs and Old Bay!!! Can't wait!!!
