It's Been A While

So quite a bit has happened since my last posting. I had my interview, which went pretty amazingly. I'm serious. The interview is supposed to only be 1-1.5 hours. I was there for over 2 hours and had a great conversation with two female volunteers. One of the girls served in Turkmenistan while the other one served in Romania. They were really nice, but they asked me a lot of questions that was meant to measure how dedicated, flexible, and capable I was. At the end of the interview the lead interviewer told me that she was planning on nominating me later that day for the Eastern Europe/Central Asia Region around the Caucasus mountains. If given an invitation I will be leaving in late May of this year. This would be VERY soon. All I had to say was "Sweet". They explained to me that be nominated does not mean a guarantee of me going, and I still had a long medical review process.

I immediately made me appointments for the doctor, eye doctor, and dentist. I got my medical forms about 2 weeks after my nomination. So about a week and a half ago I had all my appointments, but I still needed some shots and I had to find records of my immunizations. I also had to get some titers done. Then the snowstorm hit, and put me back a day or two. I just sent in my forms, about 25 days after receiving them. Now I'm freaking out about getting clearance.

Oh, I found out through all this that I have an extra wisdom tooth.
