About Me

I've been selecting to serve in Americorps in Sacramento, CA. I'll be spending ten months completing projects there as well as in other western states. I'll be updating this blog with all of the fun stuff I'll be doing.

SNOW DAY!

We woke up today to lots of snow on the ground and more still falling. We had just finished getting ready and were about to leave when Chika declared a snow day! I tried to go back to sleep but Sam insisted that we all hike a hill and he wouldn't stop jumping on my bed. I gave in and went on the hike/walk with everyone but by the time we got to the bottom of the hill my face was frozen and I few of us headed back. But it was still a very pretty walk!
We also found out about the next round last night! Out of 3 people on my team that applied for composite teams, none of us got it. But thats cool. We found out where our team is going! We will be staying in Sacramento next round (which is a relief that we don't have to pack anymore). We are assigned to work with two different highschools in Woodland, CA: Woodland HS and Pioneer HS. Our team will split between the schools and help with tutoring and such. I think I'll end up enjoying it even if it doesn't sound like the most exciting project ever. We'll see how it goes! (oh and I can't wait to have my car for 2 months)
BUT before we will be back in Sacramento, we are going to Chico Hot Springs right outside of Yellowstone! Our sponsor will be paying for us to stay there. The girls get a chalet and the boys have some sort of suite in the lower lodge. It should be awesome. Some people are going to splurge on massages or mud wraps....but it's pretty expensive! I'll have to wait and decide when we get there. Thats all the news for now!
