This article says that 75-80% of Peace Corps Volunteers come back from their service, married, engaged or in love

I'm guessing I'm going to be one of the 20-25% because
1. I'm pretty happy with the Goober* right now and it would be hard to replace/find a guy like him in South Africa
2. My program seems to be about 95% female. The only male that I have found so far is married to another female
3. In South Africa, I'm going to have to learn another language to communicate with most people. I have a hard time communicating in English
4. I'm kind of a spaz. And by kind of, I mean I eat like I'm five years old, trip over everything, cannot function without my coffee, don't wear makeup, can barely remember to brush my hair. All that sounds really really attractive

As I said at dinner the other night, I'm probably more likely to get evacuated out of country than find love.
Oh well, I'll get a dog to keep me company

*The Goober is my boyfriend, but I'll refer to him as the goober or goobs, gooberino, or gman because our relationship status is going to change once I go to South Africa and this is my pet name for him.

64 days until I board the plane to Washington D.C., which will be the first leg of my trip to South Africa.

For more fun day calendar facts, my birthday is in 7 days, I have spent 8,393 days alive, and I will spend approximately 793 days in South Africa. Approximately 9.5% of my life, as of now will be spent in South Africa.

No wonder why I'm freaked.
