Step into my time machine. This will unfortunately require bullets, as a full-length analysis is just not possible at the moment, nor will I justify stressing myself out trying. But here’s to the past, and what has happened over the last several months:. These days I am quite content. Honestly content. How nice! I’m...

Courtney's Cape Verde Experience.and then some. The opinions expressed belong solely to the writer and do not represent the US Peace Corps and its philosophy. Monday, December 31, 2007. It’s one of those mornings where the daylight creeps in and under your bed sheets in such an intrusive way that your fingers are released from their obligatory routine, the uncovering of your protesting need for rest, forcing you up and at “them”—the things of your day. I let you help me decide. Together with them, to...

Courtney's Cape Verde Experience.and then some. The opinions expressed belong solely to the writer and do not represent the US Peace Corps and its philosophy. Sunday, October 19, 2008. Can't look away from a train wreck. I don't know how to start this. I'm not only backed up on events but backed up on emotions. This may end up a series of entries, randomly processing the craziness that things have turned out to be. Yes What can I do about it? Reading books and drinking too much coffee? I am passionate, o...

apple pie life: May 2005
http://applepielives.blogspot.com/2005_05_01_archive.html
In Search Of Something More. Or Less. Vodka on that Tuesday. Originally uploaded by apple pie life. This is the photo I was speaking of in an earlier post. I look at it, and I'm still impressed I was able to drink that much by myself in the late morning/early afternoon. Well, in other news, only four more days to go at the office! Well, I need to go decide if I want to go drinking on Friday to celebrate my last day of work. ;-). Posted by jende turtle at 11:01 PM. Well, I am only partway through my to-do...

Goodnight, sweetheart, well it's time to go. I tried to write this blog twice. Difficult to formulate words…and then once formulated, I lost the blog I had written. So here I am, attempt #2. I was pretty sad about it all at first—really more exasperated, because as if I didn’t already have enough to do? It’s finally ha...

Parabens to me and my girls! The Fotovoz (Photovoice) exposition came and went this past Saturday, July 5th (ironically also my official 2-year anniversary in Cape Verde), providing the culminating moment of over a year's worth of pondering and planning this elaborate photo project.

Courtney's Cape Verde Experience.and then some. The opinions expressed belong solely to the writer and do not represent the US Peace Corps and its philosophy. Thursday, April 24, 2008. Can't think of a title. Contrary to my last entry, I am confident and in forward movement. How quickly I change, you say, and I offer no excuse. So be it. Life is such: changing moment to moment and I am allowed to have shifting moods and experiences. Friday, April 18, 2008. I know staying here would be logistically easy, ...
