Well, they did not announce what I'll be doing, but at least I finally know where I'm going. In a month and a half I'll be moving Yangasso, a town in the Segou region. I know absolutely nothing about it, so shoot me any information you find. I will be very close to a number of other volunteers, which is great. My town is just north of Sikasso region (where all the good fruit is) and west of Burkina Faso. Apparantly there's a great river festival in Segou every year. I'm so excited to finally know where I'm going.
In other news, I have to go the the Bamako med office this afternoon to get tests or whatever done. From what I hear, the office has good food, air conditioning, a dvd player and comfortable beds. Is it bad that I'm looking forward to it?

As of 2005, the area population was 49,000. World Vision New Zealand also has a program in that region, doing the same type of work as the Peace Corp.
Yangasso ADP(the New Zealand program) helps build classrooms, supplies study and teaching materials, trains teachers, and upskills management teams. Literacy teachers trained by the ADP run literacy classes for adults (especially women) and children.
Hey, Jamie!
Kathie Flanagan sent me a link to your blog after we discovered there are *two* class of 2003 SRHS graduates who have gone into the PC upon their college graduation: you and Emilie Greenhalgh.
I'm Emilie's mom (in case you couldn't guess!) I'm going to send the link to your blog to Emilie, who will be sworn in as a PCV on the 23rd -- in Cameroon. Sounds like she started about 4 weeks before you, eh? She's in the SED program.
BTW: You can find her blog at http://monsejouraucameroun.blogspot.com/.
It's wonderful to read about your adventures. I'll be following along here, too. I know we're all so proud of you both. What an amazing thing you are doing. Good luck with your final weeks of stage!
