A Chronicle of my Changing Times.

About me

User: mjmarble
Name: M. Marble
As the title suggests, this is a chronicle of my changing times. I currently live Arlington, Virginia and I go to graduate school at ESIA at GWU. I was a Peace Corps Volunteer in Haskovo, Bulgaria. Now I'm what's called a RPCV. I see this as an open diary of where I was, where I am and of course where I hope to go. It's a record of the daily trials, tribulations, successes and distractions of my journey. I hope you enjoy it. Welcome to a slice of my world. I'm also obliged to say that this is not an official Peace Corps website and the views and information presented here are my own and do not represent official Peace Corps views.

The Coming End

There's a sense in the air lately that things are beginning to wind down.  Whilst somehow we're busier now than ever before, there's a quiet calm that has seemed to come over the volunteers.  People seem more sure of themselves.  You can see it in their faces, hear it in the tone of their voices, understand it because I - for one - am feeling it too.

There's an independance that's contagious, like we're done with was has been and ready to begin what is to come.  In two weeks we'll be official Peace Corps Volunteers (not the Peace Corps Trainees we are currently) and already at our sites.  We'll take that leap into the abyss of being alone with very little direction on what to do for the next 2 months.  But we'll succeed, I'm sure of it.

The next couple weeks will be busy, but I hope to be able to publish two posts that have been on my mind these last few weeks.  First, I'd like to look at what I see as my short comings and what I feel I need to overcome.  The second will be what I hope to accomplish these next two years, where I want to work and have hopes to achieve. 

Now, I have more Bulgarian to learn.
