FIRE 6!

That’s my team!!! We found out our permanent teams tonight. The anticipation was killer. We were supposed to find out on Friday, but because drug test results hadn’t all come back they kept postponing it. Finally today after a long day of diversity training they put us on a scavenger hunt to find our teams. I have such an amazing team leader named Pita. She was a team leader last year and is mad chill. She seems lenient on the ridiculous policies (like swearing in uniform). So, I’m pretty happy with the corps members on my team. Actually, mixed feelings. Like most of the people are really cool, and one of the girls (Gina) is someone that I’ve been friends with over the past 3 weeks. But honestly, there are a couple people who have already been annoying me. I hope it’ll be something that I can just laugh about. I need to learn to be more accepting/patient of people anyways. I just get so annoyed with obnoxious people. Ha.

MCALLEN, TEXAS. We’re heading there for our first round project (November 12-December 13). It’s the most southern point of Texas. It’s a border town. Our project is doing wildlife recovery work. We are responding to a flood that happened last year. Not totally sure on the details. But I think we are living in trailers with kitchens. Pretty sweet! I’m so freakin pumped! Bring on the country music!
