I'm back...maybe?

So I have not updated in a long time. Really, I haven't been involved in the community as much as I would like. Since I haven't updated I guess I will give an update on what I have been involved in recent years.

Safe House:
The thing that made me want to help women. The place that made me shine with leadership...closed down. Yes, it was official. Sadly. It closed down for real around July of 2007. I received a grant for the computer class project that I was working on and have not used it yet. I know the 1 year deadline to use the money is approaching...So I need to make some executive descissions and see if the battered women's shelter would like some computers. If you want a more detailed update message me and I can provide more.

Mexico:
So as the blog shows, I went to Mexico in the summer of 2007. St. Joseph's Academy, my old high school, is making planes to return in the summer and once again I am on the list of potential people who can go. Will I have to pay a lot of money to go? Probably. What will we be doing? As of now I am not sure. It sounds like we will work more with the orphanage this time, rather than the schools. However, what ever we decide to do we are going to work in some sort of lab.

City Year!
So I recently signed up to be a team leader for the non profit organization City Year. I have to say I have an awesome group of high school students. Tomorrow (January 21st, 2008) will be our first service project. The team leader position is until May 2008.
Along with team leader I am going to fill out an application to take an internship with City Year. I need to get on that. The deadline is Feb. 15th...I need to revoke my old one though and start the one for Boston...I think that is where I would like to be stationed. See how it goes and such.

College?
Yes, I am in college. My second semester at that. I am majoring in computer science and international studies with a focus on environmental issues and secondary education...yeah...

So I guess that is all that has been happening. Slowly things start moving and I'm taking small steps in life. Who knows what is next. Maybe.
