The Peace Corps, especially the first two months, when we are doing our "community assessment"-(which my clinic insists on calling a diagnosis, and sort of makes me laugh as I have no idea what sort of medicine would save this place...) where we try to determine potential project areas, is an often confusing array of various tasks that you are asked to do that you may or may not be qualified to undertake, and are requested of for any number of reasons. Top on my list right now are the following, and I would appreciate any info people have on any of these topics as I am not an expert on any of them!
1) I have been asked to give a seminar on aerobics. Why me, I have no idea. I was walking from the post office to the clinic one day and a woman in a nice car stopped me and asked if I would give a seminar on aerobics to the teachers at one of the schools. The savings gram is in the mail, I would imagine, as are details to follow. Other than taking aerobics to fill out my schedule my senior year of high shool I have no experience in this field, but will give it my best ;-)
2) YWCA. As in forming one. Apparently there once was a committee to create a YWCA in Seronga, and by inquiring about it, I have fired the committee back up, and thus am the expert consultant. Lord help us all.
3) Still a secret, TBD, but the one I am most excited about. Just know that I have something cooking!
