It has been two years since I first began applying for the Peace Corps--boy they were not kidding when they said the application process can take a while. I officially leave for the Peace Corps July 22nd (staging in Philadelphia) and flying to Benin on July 23rd!
Everyone keeps asking how I am doing? If I am excited? In all honesty I have just felt extremely anxious. Also I do not think everything has quite hit me yet, and I am almost certain there will be a distinct moment when I will be in Benin and have this exact thought, "What have I gotten myself into?" Only time will tell.
