PCV Cassie


Well folks, I´ve made it. I am now a full blown volunteer. I was able to pass my language test and now I speak Intermediate Mid level Guarani and Intermediate Low in Spanish. I can´t believe my Guarani is now better than my Spanish.

As Will Farrel said in Elf, ¨That´s Shocking¨

So I leave for my site on Tuesday. I am currently in Asuncion staying at a sweet hotel with my other 40 newbies, along with some oldies from our sister G, G-22. My group is actually G-25. G is our sector and my family. There are 3 waves of volunteers that come to Paraguay per year. So as we are swearing into Peace Corps as the newest "G", G-19 is signing out.

I've also got a phone now! I will expect tons of phone calls to me, as it's free to recieve calls! It is NOT free for me to make calls, so I might be calling on your phones and hanging up.

My phone number is 595-971-702-151.

CALL MEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Well, I will write later as I have to go get my ginormous bags back to my hotel and get ready for tomorrow. Tomorrow is the first day of my next 2 years. I can't believe it. It's a little crazy just thinking about it.

I think I'll go get some movie popcorn and Pizza Hut to celebrate!!!

HEy, I just talked to you and it cost $1.64 per minute! I will definitely investigate the international plan. Or I could just come and get you.
Love,
Your G-1 Daddy

P.S. Put a + before that number.

Hey Cass,

Hey lady,

Tried to call you today (on the 23rd) at about 7pm my time. I am dying to chat with you pretty lady!

By the way, if you get a phone card off of the internet, it is a LOT cheaper than calling from home! Let's start CCIP (Call Cass In Paraguy!) Keep it up folks!

Kisses and merry Christmas!
