Half-way

In two weeks, I will be halfway thought my year of service.  As with most things, the time has gone by slow and fast at the same time.  There have been a lot of great moments, but I cannot think of any bad moments right off hand.  Well, maybe the food stamp process, but that was minor. 

So now that I am halfway through, I need to start thinking about what I am going to do next.  First off – am I staying here in Portland?  Yes.  I really do like it here and I would like to stay longer so I can experience more of the Pacific NW.  Next, do I have a job?  Nope, not yet.  Do I know what I want to do?  Again, nope, not yet.  If a job does not present itself, I am considering doing another year of AmeriCorps VISTA.  I do not know if I will stay in my current position (I have a meeting with my boss and VISTA Leader this week to talk about this)  or try for another VISTA position within Portland.  I might even look into a VISTA Leader position but I do not know if that is my cup of tea.  I would get paid a little bit more though.  Stay tuned to see how things turn out.
