I haven't had too much to blog about recently. Last weekend I spent a lot of time writing the report for the Volunteer Advisory Committee (VAC) Annual Survey. Each year the co-chairs of the committee send a survey out to all the volunteers in the country to get feedback about their service. This information is then presented to Peace Corps Romania staff at one of the VAC meetings. This year, as one of the co-chairs, I have been weighing through the data and making all sort of bar graphs and pie charts. To be honest, I enjoy being able to deal with easy things like number and percentages. I love having definitive answers unlike teaching, where it seems there is never a clear-cut answer.
After finishing the report I then looked to the week ahead which included Valentine's Day. On Valentine's Day I had parties in the three 11th grade classes I teach on Tuesdays. I especially enjoyed the parties in 11A and 11B as this is the second year I am teaching those classes and I have gotten to know them quite well.

As the week concluded I realized that in the midst of celebrating I had procrastinated on the Volunteer Report File which is due on Monday so I am headed back to the computer this weekend. The Volunteer Report File is a document that each volunteer must fill out around the world each trimester showing their activities and how many host country nationals. It can be a little daunting the first time as you count the number of students in each class and activity, but as I realize I only have a couple more to do I am feeling more hopeful.
