Cash Flow...Or Lack there Of

I need another job. I’m trying to do to much to just have this little part time bullsh!t. I finally got my nomination package from Peace Corps. Now I have to schedule and pay for (w/o insurance mind you) a dentist, eye and physical exam. I was going to play with the money I got from this mutual fund from my granny but, doesn’t look like that’s going to be happening. Part of it is going to my car and part to this doctor stuff. If there’s anything left over, I’m getting my guitar. I finally decided which one I want, now I just have to get it. I found one on ebay for $120 which is great considering it’s a $500 guitar.

From the description my recruiter gave me, sounds like I’m going to be working in Madagascar instead of Fiji. Evidently, that was the only place that an environmental program opening within my time frame. When I interviewed, I was very adamant about going anywhere but Africa. At the time I didn’t give her a reason. I just would prefer not to go to a place I have connections with. Im not prepared to see people that look like me struggling. Now granted, I’m very aware there are many affluent people living in Africa, however, the chance of me working with them are slim to non. The whole purpose of Peace Corps is to help in an area that NEEDS it. ie: wealth is not where I’m going. But for some reason, I’m cool if I go to Madagascar, maybe because it’s technically not connected to Africa, and that it’s an island. I don’t really know. Im not even sure if that’s where I’m going. I’m just taking a really good guess with the description of the program they gave me. In all honesty, I’ll be happy where ever I go...I’m just ready to go!

I’m trying to do a lot of traveling in the next few months. First trip on the list is Philly. Time for me to go back out and visit Simone. I’ll probably go out sometime in March. After Philly comes Hampton, gotta go hang out with the besti and experience Greek life at and HBCU. So I’m assuming that will be end of March, beginning of April. Then I gotta head back to the almamater for the Step Show. Last stop on the list is Chicago. Never been before but I have a few folks I’d like to spend sometime with. All this traveling means, I need to have some money set aside...Hence my need to get another job. Any offers?
