Gooooood morning Maryland! Coming at you live from McKeldin Library after spin class 😎. And guess what? I gave away 4 more books and a pair of shoes already today! Well, almost... there are these little cubbies at the entrance of the library where you can leave/take stuff so that's their home for now but probably not for long -- someone just sat down across from me with one of them! Plus, people from facebook are coming to pick up a mug and another book later today 😁
Alright, let me get to the meat of this post so I can go home and eat plants. Yesterday I mentioned an interview with AmeriCorps -- it was the second program I've interviewed with and it went great! I don't remember how much I've talked about the other ones (if I have at all) so I figured I'd give the rundown today.
I've fallen in love with the idea of service, and with so many cool opportunities all over the country within AmeriCorps, I think it might be my next step after 4K. That said, I'm not sure that joining one of their programs is the most effective thing I can do to serve others and grow as a human, so I still have some tough decisions to make... but that's a discussion for another blog. As of now, I've applied to close to 10 programs and have interviewed for one in North Carolina that places members at one of 11 different college campuses and another called the Literacy Coalition in Palm Beach County, Florida. Both of these seem great and have their own unique benefits but I think the service I'd be doing would be relatively similar. However, now I have to wait to interview with the specific sites in North Carolina, so I'm sure I'll get a better idea of the work I'd be doing. I also applied to a FoodCorps program in San Francisco which I'm very interested in, but haven't heard from yet. There's way too many options to know if I'm applying for the "perfect" ones, but I know wherever I end up will be awesome.
Wish me luck on my future applications and interviews! 💛💙
We killed this one!
