Preference and Updates

I don't really have any updates on any Peace Corps stuff. I did finally request Africa or Asia and said I would rather not go to Eastern Europe if possible. Most people from our program end up in Africa, so it would not surprise me if I do as well. My friend Sean got his placement though! He will be in Mauritania which is on the west coast of Africa still in the desert. He's the first one from our year to get his placement, and I'm really excited for him. I've been telling people I should get my placement in March or so, but I don't really know why I used that month. It used to be because it was far away, but now its only a month away, and I really have no idea as to when I'll get my placement. I guess if it doesn't come in March, I'll start telling people that I will know in July.
