My adventures out west!

And then there were 5

My team is dropping like flies. Ok, so I now have a teammate who is living at different housing in Biloxi, thus switching projects as well. He is still a part of Gold 1, and has to drive back with us, and do all our paperwork wrap-up stuff with us, but now there are 5 of us here at Hands On. He switched because he has kind of brought it upon himself to have people not like him here, and to take precautions before someone does something to him, to "retaliate" or whatever, he requested to be moved so nothing would happen. Yeah. . . i don't even know what to say.

I really wonder what this year would be like had they not taken all the applicants. I may have mentioned this before, but i learned recently that only 2 people on my team, including myself (and excluding my team leader) were not wait-listed to get into the program. So in a normal corps year, 6 people on my team most likely would not have made it into the program. Of course there would still be problems, hello, we live together 24/7 but i really don't think it would be the same. Is it too much to ask to actually want to do the service? To care about more than when you are drinking next? To actually care about people in general?

16 days left here, and 3 of them i'll be in New Orleans with my friends, on other teams, for someone special's 23rd birthday! =)

    Thanks for your comment. TLT is going good so far, but I can already see that there are going to be divisions amongst the TLs. Yeah, it's inevitable with 44 of us, but by day two I was already hearing snarky remarks and complaints about this person or that person. AAAAHHHH! Can't we all just get along? Wish me luck for PT with Willie starting Monday! Love you gobbles!

    Hey you!!

    You sound like you need a hug!! :-) So, um, just imagine me giving you the biggest bear hug ever... I can see it now... Haha. Anyway, just remember that we love you and are constantly praying for you here at home. And we are also counting down the days til you get back!!! (As soon as you know an exact day, let me know so that Sarah Roe can put it in her phone and we can count down the minutes too!! Haha!!)

    Love you girl, and I miss you bunches!!
