So graduation IS about 3 weeks away and though i knew i had the option of going to Sierra Leone and finding a job there, I was looking for something here too. At about 3:48pm today I got a call for the NY State Health Deparment AIDS INSTITUTE!!!
SO THRILLED!!!
I have a job and i get to choose when i start work…did i already say that i’m thrilled and excited that i’ll be working and in NY of all places. Though this means i wont be moving to SL permanently its an opportunity to learn not only about health and public policy…I will also be learning more about HIV(AIDS) and I need not say how important this issue is.
Before I start work on September 1st 2006, I will be embarking on a journey that will take me and a friend from Sierra Leone to Niger by road….and i cant wait!!!
I FEEL SO BLESSED RIGHT NOW…SO LOVED…I LOVE LIFE…I LOVE GOD
JUST SOO FABULOUS!!!
