(no subject)
Hello everybody! I know it's been quite awhile since I did an actual post...and let's face it, who actually still reads this journal of mine...but I figure someone still reads this and I owe them an update of my life every now and then. So...here we go!
Just got back from leave in the States and it was freaking awesome. It was quite possibly my favorite stint back home since I joined the military. I had plenty of time to relax, and I really needed it after my six months in Iraq. I got to chill and read a lot. It was so much fun to relive that simpler time in my life where I had the time to sit down and finish a book in a whole day. Man was that day awesome!
I also got to hang out with my friends. Some not as much as others, but I feel like I've grown closer to a few, Sexy Couch and Erin being the chief among them. It was amazing just hanging out with those two and realizing how lucky I am to have friends like them. Like Erin said "Everytime I hang out with you I feel like I grow to know you a little bit more." And how right you were, little lady (and by little I mean FREAKIN SMALL! lol, i swear you shrunk atleast an inch). In fact, it was while I was hanging out with these two that I finally made my decision to get out of the Navy.
The Navy was a good time for me and a great stepping stone for the rest of my life. I've learned a lot of life skills and the job has cracked away the shy shell that I used to hide from the world. Life is so much more fun for me now. It is awesome that I am living in Japan but I miss the States so much. I just want to go home now. Only about two more years and I'll be back home. The only trouble is discovering what I want to do when I get out. I am thinking of being an English teacher. It might not pay that well but I think I would have a great time doing it. I really don't know though. We'll see.
So now I am offically in radio and I have my OWN radio show! It is so freaking cool you have no idea. I love it and I will miss it...but what are you going to do? I want to be a civilian even more.
Ok...that's about it for now. I'm outta here. I miss GA but its only two years away. Two years....I can't wait.
