It's been a few weeks since I've posted on this blog and I know all my avid readers must be thoroughly disappointed with me (aka, my mother.) However, I assure you this isn't out of laziness but rather because I have extremely busy. My very limited access to technology is also not a helping factor; I'm writing this from the Milwaukee central library. Beautiful building but not the fastest computers. Also won't let me upload pictures, which is a bummer.
So, last I posted I was just about to board a plane for Indianapolis, where I was meeting my JVC coordinators and fellow volunteers for an orientation. It's a good thing I happened to bump into this group of 50 or so people standing in baggage claim, because I had no idea where I was heading, how I was getting there, or how long I would be there.
After a flurry of introductions, few of which I remembered the first time, we boarded a bus for a quaint little retreat center in rural Indiana. So rural in fact that we had no cell reception, although it didn't matter as they collected our phones at the beginning of the retreat. After a few weeks of general informing, group bonding, and overall orientating, we were off to our respective locations, mine being in Milwaukee of course. But more to come on that later...
