Well, at least I'm starting on it.
For those of you that don't know, I've been contemplating applying for the Peace Corps for a year. And yesterday I started the application.
My reasons are many and my explanations would probably take numerous posts. But the short end of it is that I have been blessed with so much and because of that I want to go and help others.
The timeline from application to leaving is about 6-9 months. So if I get accepted, I'm not leaving anytime soon.
Eek! This is a big step for me, but it's time.
Tyler Durgen would be proud.

It's just me trying to figure out this crazy life.
About Me

I know you all are dying to send me stuff so my address is: Jamie Konecny; Entrega General David, Chiriqui Panama, Republica de Panama And put stickers of the Virgen Mary all over it.

WOW Peace Corps!! Really?? Sounds like an adventure... details please!!
The Details....
Wow. I guess there are alot of them. First off, it's a two year commmittment in a foreign country. You live like a national there (i.e. not like an American), most likely learn another language, and help the nationals there in some area. I will be applying for the business area of the Peace Corps, which I hope will involve microloans, business plans, etc. If you have any questions, please post them and I would love to try to answer them! =)
