Changing the world - Day 18

Today I registered with the United Nations to be a volunteer. I know! How globally aware of me!

I stumbled across their website http://www.unv.org/en.html and discovered that you can volunteer all sorts of ways online - trés convenient. So I offered my services as a translator for some document (on obstetrics apparently - how appropriate) to write it up in English from French...Frenchy said he'd help me so no fear :-)

Of course, being the United Nations, you have to answer all sorts of in depth questions and send in a CV, so no doubt I'll eventually be rejected as a volunteer - how ironic. Nevertheless I have sent my application off and am waiting eagerly for a reply. You'll be the first to know of my success or otherwise.

I feel like Angelina-friggin-Jolie!

Until tomorrow do-gooders xx
