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.

George Washington

The good folks over at George Washington University apparently have seen fit to let me study at their University.  I got an email yesterday inviting me to the "admitted students" open house on April 10th.  I still haven't got a letter from them or any other communication, but upon checking I realize that I had all correspondence sent here to Haskovo.  So I'm thinking it might take a bit longer to get the official notification.  So nothing is "official" yet, but it appears that I will have a choice to make.  Still waiting on American University and SAIS at Johns Hopkins.  I have to pick a date to end my service by next Wednesday, so let's hope I hear from them soon. 

All in all, a great way to start a weekend.  And with the downpour of rain we had these last two days, Spring has finally and completely arrived.  Everything is green and lush and beautiful.  I head to my end of service conference (COS) next Wednesday to go over all that needs be done before I finish up here in the end of June.  And next Friday I fly to Egypt for spring break to visit the venerable James in Cairo.  It'll be my 11th or 12th trip outside of BG since coming here 2 years ago.  Oh, how my life has changed in the last few years.
