this weekend, chris and i sent in our placement acceptance emails. it was awesome this morning to log in and see that we finally have a name of a post on our toolkit!
look at that happy little map and link to our specific post on the right! squeal!
the best part of receiving so much information is that you can find conflicting accounts.
to begin with, how you should accept your invitation varies. one document tells us to call the education desk within seven days to accept or reject. another says to email within ten days of receiving the invitation to accept or reject.
we went with the email option because it provided an exact statement for us to prepare, and thus seemed more official.
another wonderfully hilarious piece of conflicting information is whether or not we should bring/wear flip flops in country. in no fewer than three places does it mention that we need sandals with a back strap (no flips flops! it says in bold letters). in another two places, it explicitly recommends bringing 1-2 pair of flip flops.
le sigh. hilarity.

Congratulations! This is the first invitation to Cambodia I've seen. I'm nominated for Asia in July and/or August (it's unclear), but am waiting for medical clearance.
I look forward to reading your posts as you prepare for service.
Congrats on your invitation! I am nominated for Health Extension in Asia July, so i've been keeping a heads-up for other Asian nominees! I hope to have an invitation like you with-in a few weeks to months!
It must feel so good to sign in and have that view! It's funny that there's conflicting answers regarding flip flops!
PS Is your full name Katey?
Congrats! This is so exciting.
