Howdy all,
It's the one and only Kevin. Yes it is I: Kevin, Pippy, Greasy, Bruiser, The Baby, and whatever else you might know me as. I'm underway and I decided, "Hey, why not post a journal entry even though I know no one reads it." So I decided I'd do it anyways...so I'm here on my ship, and it's not that bad. We're underway and I can't say where but I'll let ya'll know what kinda stuff we did and where whenever I come home. Things are pretty good, I don't get sea sick unlike more than half the boat. I'm almost qualified on all my basic stuff so that's good. This Friday will mark my one month onboard. Not a long time I know, but hey...it's a step. I just wish I had more contact with everyone at home, yes I do have my cell so if you've got the number gimme a call alright? I can't access my hotmail account from here so that sucks cause I can't see if anyone written to me or not. I won't post my military email here, just cause ya never know who'll see it. But if you know Tuan you can get it from him, and if you don't know how to contact him, then ask anyone else you know who knows me and they'll do it. But everything's goin' pretty well. I miss not bein' able to just drop what I'm doin' and go hang out with the boys and have band practice or hit the pub. So I'll just have to make up for lost time whenever I get home. heh Ya know the worst part about bein' underway though? I'm on an all male ship so...there's not a single female onboard. I mean I wasn't expecting to meet anyone while I was in the military...but now it seems like the military is out to prove me right by placing me in a situation that offers absolutly NO opportunity. Just my luck huh?! So many of you(the one person reading this, if that) are sittn' there goin' "Would you stop complaining already?" And I will...after I finish this. :D I just sucks ya know, so many of the guys here hook up with a girl(or 2) durn' our port calls, and some guys have wives or girlfriends back home. I'm basically one of the only people that doesn't have someone waiting for them back home. And in way that's good cause I wouldn't want anyone to just sit around and wait for me to come home after 2 months or something, but still. I kinda sucks known' that when I get back to Boston, the only thing waiting for me is a barracks room and my car. No friends in Boston(besides my shipmates), no family, no girlfriend. And I know my friends and family are only 2 hours away, but still. It's not like I can just call them up and say "Wanna hit the pub?" And ya'll know me, I don't meet people often and I thought..."Hey maybe bein' in the military I might get stationed somewhere and meet someone in the area or in the same yard." But I guess I just won't, maybe some time in the future. I don't know...I guess I'm just gettn' a little depressed from listening to the other guys. No worries though. Well ya'll take care of yourselves, feel free to leave comments for me on here okay? It'd be nice...and then I'll figure out a way to get in contact with you and get you my email. So, until next time youngn's.
