This is the end of the first week of In Service Training (IST). Essentially it’s an opportunity to learn some new skills, share initial experiences about our home sites and orgs, and provide feedback about our needs to our supervisors. Some requested to learn some Income Generating Activities to teach in the villages,so, as you will see below, we learned how to make Passion fruit and pineapple juice, and environmentally friendly cooking briquettes.
We are staying at a place called Ulrika Guest House, on the road from Kampala to Entebbe. It’s part of a pretty large complex, and run by nuns, who are pretty cool. They sell us beer. There are crucifixes everywhere. I don’t think I am ever out of Jesus’ eyesight. The nuns gave us older guys and a few others single rooms.
It’s been great seeing everyone in my cohort for the first time since our August swearing in. Training activities in the day, soccer or volley ball late afternoon until dark, and social stuff or relaxing in my room after dinner. We’ve had individual meetings with the PC supervisors, during which I indicated no real problems for me. Compared to stressors of the past two years, and my tired old law practice, I continue to view the Peace Corps as a long adventure vacation. I think I have the personality, skills, stamina and attitude to be a good volunteer. With 22 months to go, I only worry about my job getting boring, so I will try to keep it interesting. Of course I do miss my “family life” in the evening, but with grown kids leading their own independent lives, it wouldn’t be that much different in Denver. Lately I’ve been watching Game of Thrones at night on my computer.

I’ve learned other PCVs have counterparts that don’t give them the time of day, NGOs that are running out of funds or don’t have challenging work, or there is too much work. It has really hit home how many of these PCVs plunged into the Peace Corps immediately following their college graduations, so probably it’s a bit of a jolt. The main psychiatrist for the Peace Corps visited us. He said last year 4,000 were chosen from over 20,000 applicants. He said when employers look through submitted resumes, they all show similar backgrounds but the fact you state you were in the Peace Corps will always stand out and give them something interesting to discuss in your interview. Not taking anything away from my own children, who could easily fit in, I continue to be impressed with the quality of the kids I am serving with.
