A Little Island Called Okinawa

So it's been a while... what can I say? I've been busy which is no real excuse but it's the truth.

Anyway, as the year is coming to an end, let me sum up what has happened since my last post (and pretty much the entire year):

• Graduated Tech School and FINALLY left Texas... I was kind of torn here because it was both good and bad- good because I got out of Texas and got to get on with my real life/job; bad because I had to leave all the friends I made... But I guess there's always Global :)
• Went to lovely ol Maxwell where I made even more friends and learned how to play an interesting game of "Icarus"... And as a not so fond memory, the early demise of my poor car... *tear* For those who don't know, Alabama drivers are CRAZY!
• Went home on leave and got my motorcycle license... yes, that's right. I'm a BA
• Packed up my stuff and moved to Japan but went back to the States for another month of training the week after I arrived on island
• Got back to Japan and finally started settling in... which seems to be a work in progress that may possibly never end. Who knows at this rate!

But yes, that's the whole last year in a nut shell... well, at least most of the significant events that I can remember. I'm sure there are some other details in there but you know how the saying goes: "If I told you, I'd have to kill you."

Perhaps at another time soon in the future, I will post some pictures of my new place but until then, you can use your imagination. As for now, I've worked a long day and it's time to veg out and eat dinner. Ciao!
