I think I am going to apply for the Peace Corps. You have to submit an application about a year in advance, so if I apply now, I could start as soon as I graduate.
If I don't get in, I will try AmeriCorps. Which is the same thing except you go to poor Southern towns instead of poor Kenyan Villages.
If that doesn't work, I will enroll in a TEFL program (Teaching English as a Foreign Language), and go teach English somewhere far away. Preferably a non-Western country.
And if that doesn't work? Teach for America? I hear they are kind of a scam.
The point is right now I want to run away and never come back. So I think the solution is to run far enough to get tired, and then I will want to come back. Come back and stay.
