yeah yeah, i know...i've severely neglected this journal but with good reason! it's not easy attending training for like half a year, then moving to an island in the middle of nowhere, the world.
seriously, okinawa is pretty sweet. i miss my hippies and tech geeks of the northwest, but the people here more than make up for that. they're quiet and respectful, and i have yet to get a sloppy teriyaki burger from mcdonalds :D. i've had soba and all sorts of unidentifiable seafood. i live on the beach and spend what little time off i actually have watching all the surfers. it's pretty much paradise. i even like my co-workers much better over here. we run too much, though. my shins are seriously about to split right down the middle.
my job is actually interesting. i'm going through a pretty intense upgrade training. i just keep remembering my mother telling me before she died that she will be in the planes with me while i take care of my patients. and that's kept me pretty calm and pretty confident through this training.
i'm seriously just biding my time until THE SIMS 3 comes out :)...
