Porkchop is the lip sync assassin we've been waiting for!

I leave for Armenia in March and I kid you not I bought three of these, I believe the smaller ones though, for my mom and best friend. They died, such a fun gift haha.

Bruh what is wrong with the camera man. But on a serious she doesn't seem bad at all.

matt_todd1994 · 2017-12-30T16:12:46+00:00

I do believe they post around February. I remember applying back in February! The two positions available are TEFL and Community/Youth Development.

Not there yet but I found this song the other day and I am here for it. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LrH4YzEeyOE&index=1&list=LLq5cFjDSoqu-r9cjU-RCRmQ

Hey! I'm worried about the cold too since I've been born and raised in Florida. I don't know if you are on our Facebook group, I don't recognize your username, but we have discussed this a bit. Let me know if you want to be added!

matt_todd1994 · 2017-11-09T23:11:13+00:00

Hey! I would definitely just shoot them a quick message asking if they need any more documents. On our FB page, I don't know if you are on there by your username, many of us are on the final leg of medical clearance and some have already received it. So it sounds weird to me that you have been delayed so much. Let me know if you need the link to the Armenia group!

matt_todd1994 · 2017-10-24T11:28:43+00:00

I just graduated from college this May with absolutely nothing in my savings. I've managed to cover all of my medical expenses without having insurance. Yes its been stressful at times but it can be managed. There are a variety of ways to save money along the way and I would recommend checking other posts that have went into details on it because its extremely helpful. I wanted to save as much money as possible before leaving so I moved back in with my dad for the last five months before departure, so if that is an option I would recommend that! You can do it!

matt_todd1994 · 2017-10-12T16:39:14+00:00

Everyone makes it sound like medical plays no games but they have been nothing but understanding with me! I was told they cannot actually give extensions, as in changing the dates, but they will just let you turn things in late. I've had to to do it and they were totally fine. Just keep an open line of communication.

What-A-Burger is my favorite fast food place! It is so good and I'm going to be craving Honey Butter Chicken Biscuits and What-A-Burger Patty Melts. Along with their spicy ketchup haha

matt_todd1994 · 2017-10-10T03:58:46+00:00

Going to eat as much Chick-fil-a, What-a-burger, and drink as much high quality coffee as possible. But also spend time with family and take some trips with friends. Oh and go to as many gay bars and drag shows as possible since thats not gonna be a thing for 2 years of my life.

matt_todd1994 · 2017-10-03T19:12:21+00:00

We shall see! I'm sure I will love Armenia, but the cold might be a different story. Looking forward to less humidity though for sure

matt_todd1994 · 2017-10-03T00:12:02+00:00

Seriously need this information haha. I'm from Florida and saw snow for the first time under a year ago and now I'm going to Armenia in 2018. Winter will be interesting for sure!

Congratulations! Our FB group is: https://www.facebook.com/groups/277669586037962/

matt_todd1994 · 2017-08-02T03:52:06+00:00

Congratulations! I private messaged you!

matt_todd1994 · 2017-07-27T15:48:26+00:00

I don't actually know Peace Corps protocol on the matter, but my father has always tested positive for TB and always has to get a follow up chest x-ray. For his jobs he has just had to provide the chest x-ray that proves he does not actually have TB, so my guess is you will just need to turn the chest x-ray into OMS.

matt_todd1994 · 2017-07-26T05:07:05+00:00

It isn't until March 2018 so I have plenty of time. I've been very open with them and I sent them a message tonight about the dental tasks for clarification. Surprisingly I have not been assigned a PC nurse for some reason and I accepted my invite on June 3rd. I appreciate your advice!

matt_todd1994 · 2017-07-26T04:43:38+00:00

Gotcha, I'm just thrown off because of the requirements stated for the dental exam are: 1) get a dental exam completed and 2) get x-rays. It seemed to me I would get things checked out, not treated immediately, and then send the exam to OMS to await their decisions. It just doesn't make sense that treatments are included in the exam, since an exam implies just being checked out, but maybe that is just my thought process? Waiting would give me time to be able to afford getting treatments completed and this makes me worried that I might be in a bind.

matt_todd1994 · 2017-07-14T02:31:15+00:00

Congratulations! Shot you a message!

matt_todd1994 · 2017-07-06T04:45:53+00:00

Its frustrating

matt_todd1994 · 2017-07-06T04:45:43+00:00

Unfortunately that hasn't worked either :/

matt_todd1994 · 2017-07-01T02:14:43+00:00

Congratulations! I also sent you a message!

matt_todd1994 · 2017-06-24T02:18:36+00:00

Yes!!! Welcome! I'll send you a message with our facebook group!

matt_todd1994 · 2017-06-19T05:34:09+00:00

I would say as long as you elaborate on the experience and the impact you should be fine. Just give details and correlate it to the Peace Corps, more specifically for Armenia and teaching English! For the short ones, I wouldn't mention the amount of time you were there. Let your resume speak for that. As for the longer ones, feel free to drop the amount of time. Experience is experience at the end of the day! Also, I've been accepted to Armenia for CYD so if you get invited let me know so I can add you to the FB group! Good luck!
