"Peace is not something you wish for;

it's something you make, something you do,
something you are, and something you give away."

Hi Everyone!

So here's the deal. I started this blog to keep track of all of these awesome projects that I've got going on in my life right now. I wanted to be able to document them and share them with friends, family, and anyone else even remotely interested in watching as I struggle to try make this world a better place. I tend to prefer to just jump right in, so here is your brief orientation.

I am currently:
- Preparing for a stint as a Peace Corps Volunteer in Sub-Saharan Africa (May 2010)
- Planning for and doing Fund-raising for Sustainable Harvest International in Piedras Negras, Honduras (Thank you, Hancock UCC!)(Feb 2010)
- Preparing for the HIV/AIDS Awareness Party that I'm hosting in Boston, MA (Jan 2010)
- Working in the Investigational Pharmacy at Dana Farber Cancer Institute

Projects in the works include:
- Figuring out what I can do to help out with Haiti
- Red Cross Re-certification in Adult, Child, and Infant CPR and First Aid
- Getting this blog up and running
- Chipping away at my mile-long List of Books to Read
- Learning some Spanish for my trip to Piedras Negras, Honduras
- Learning French to enable my travels around Africa (*temporarily on hold in order to focus on Spanish)
