Brimming with anticipation
I just got word the other day that my Peace Corps application is now beyond the dental examination phase. I'm pumped about this because I had to deal with way too much shit over the course of almost three months to get all my dental paperwork in order. That means that in the next few days I'll hear back about my physical exams, and (assuming there is no hold up) then I'll just be chilling and waiting for my assignment. Of course, I had a midterm this morning, a huge midterm tomorrow, and two papers due on Wednesday. This means that I have been drinking way too much coffee, getting way too little sleep, and am borderline delirious. So now I'm fidgety and shaky and can't stop checking my Peace Corps profile for updates. I've nicknamed myself Tweak for the moment, and not just because gnomes are stealing my underwear at night (although, I am in a prime position to catch them, since I can't get to sleep before 5 am). So now I just need to try to forget that I'm waiting to hear where I'll be living for the next two and a half years, try not to look at google maps to ponder where that might be, try to get some fucking sleep, try to put down the coffee, and focus all my energy on catching those fucking gnomes!
