Attempting to sign away 27 months of my life.

I'm applying for the Peace Corps. I have actually been trying to apply for for about a month, but have gotten lazy writing my essays and following up on letters of rec. And unfortunately one of my letters is kind of lame. A former boss of a supervisor (who had moved, as seems to be the trend with my old employers) seriously wrote three short sentences about me more or less saying that I'm friendly and have a positive attitude. Thanks.

But these are important qualities and maybe the short pep-talk of a note will be sufficient enough to spark the interest of the recruiters. Thankfully my other letters will be (SHOULD be) much much better.
