I figured that there wasn't anything to update but I was told other wise but many different people.

I also want to take the time to say that,
ALL INFORMATION THAT IS POSTED ON THIS BLOG IS THE THOUGHTS AND VIEWS OF MINE. THIS DOES NOT REFLECT THE VIEWS OF PEACE CORPS, THE US GOVERNMENT, NIGER, OR ANY OTHER ORGANIZATION.

So here is what has been going on. I am currently trying to learn three languages at one time French, Hausa, and Zarma. French is a lot like Spanish with has helped and hurt me. The structure and flow of French is the same but words that are similar are confusing me greatly such as counting. I have a private tutor that I see two times a week and have been studying privately everyday. Hausa and Zarma are provided for my through the Peace Corps website. They are both very similar languages but are not overly hard to learn.

I will hear in the week where my staging will take place. There are a few places that this can happen at, Florida, Washington DC, Philadelphia and one other place that I can not remember. Staging or pre-departure orientation will be two or three days then i will be shipped off to Niger. I will be in training for two months where I will learn everything that I will need to know about my job, Niger, language, safety, health, and much more. If I pass this I will officially be a Peace Corps Volunteer. I am scared that I will not pass the language but I know that it is all irrational and that I will be fine.
