I am officially a Peace Corps Volunteer. Everyone passed the
language exam and I scored one level above the requirement, which I was very
surprised and very happy! We had our swearing in ceremony November 25th
at Sunkoshi Adventure Retreat and Nepal group 200 has 24 new volunteers (three
people have gone back to America since the initial 27, for various reasons).
The Ambassador was there and a man from Peace Corps Nepal 14 was the guest of
honor speaker (we are group 200). Also one member from each of our families was
able to come which was fun for them and us. My dad was the person who came from
my family; I really have enjoyed both my mom and dad here (I can only hope I
have the same relationship with my next family). It was very peaceful to be in
the middle of nowhere and have some time to actually relax without pressures of
classes and language tests. The
unfortunate part is that we had this big ceremony and now we are back at our
training village for another week because our counter part conference isn’t
until December 3rd so we just have this week of in between time. It
feels like we are just in limbo. Lets just rip off the Band-Aid already and
send us off to being on our own! I may regret this statement the week at
permanent all alone haha.
