Peace Corps Swearing-In Ceremony

Europe » Macedonia

On December 12th the Mak13 group had our swearing-in ceremony. Let's see... I played a version of the national anthem of Macedonia on my guitar whilst the others sang. All I know is that I was glad to be done with our Pre-Service Training. It is nice to also be done with the middle school antics of many of my fellow volunteers. I can honestly say that the amount of ridiculous gossip that goes on in the Peace Corps, thus far, has been the most negative part of my service.

Me & Dynomike

I just bought this scarf, which Dynomike calls my "Pierre look." Cool guy. We rode on the plane together, were placed in the same training site, and now live in adjacent towns. I guess Peace Corps thought I needed a little "fatherly" advice from time to time.
