Days Left

64 days, 13 hours, 49 minutes and 23 seconds


I can't wait to go home. It's gonna be amazing! Switching to 12 hour days again... just for a few days, but it's still gonna suck.
Sean comes to my base in a couple days, so hopefully I'll get to see him without being too tired.
I started watching The O.C. It's so addicting yet predictable.
They took my "computer bed" out of our little cubicle that we sleep in. It turned out okay though. Now we have more room. Although we don't really NEED more room. We spend all day in bed so...
I started reading my Bible again. I'm glad I bought it online back in July. It has the daily chapters set up for you already, so you just look for the date and it has what you read all outlined with a daily devotion. So, I'm on... Day 4 or 5 I think.
I was having trouble eating, but I'm doing better now. I took my mom's advice and grabbed a bunch of little things I knew I could eat instead of going to the main line for things I'd likely not eat. I grab a couple pitas, some fruit, a salad, a yogurt, and milk or gatorade. It's been working out good so far. THANKS MOM!

I LOVE YOU SEAN!

The Shemagh Wrap is the NEW Do-Rag

I got a "Shemagh Wrap" and this is how it said you wear it. It's for out at where we work. The air is always really gross and dirty. So, I thought it might be healthy to get one of these.

I had a dream the other night that my teeth were falling out. After reading some dream interpretations on the internet, I feel like it has to do with all the changes that are coming up in my life soon, as well as the financial problems this country seems to be going through. I feel like I'm growing up and I think I'm just afraid of messing up. I want to live a good normal life, and I think I've been worried lately that I'm not going to live up to my parent's and societies expectations. I'm worried about so many things. And the fact that this country's economy is going down the drain doesn't really help ease my mind at all. I'm so worried that I'm never going to get my credit card paid off... That I'm never going to live the life I want to live, or that I'm going to fail at being financially capable. I don't know. I'm just all messed up in the head... LOLz...

But, I've decided that I will be fine. I will do alright. I have a good head on my shoulders, and I've made it this far. I always find a way to make sure everything works out alright.

Seeing Sean.


So today on watch, I got to spend some time with my man. He came and hung out with IT1 Whiting and myself. We watched Scrubs, Monty Python & The Holy Grail, and The Office. I would say that it was an eventful 8 hours. We had such a good time. I found out some things that I never knew about Sean before. Ha ha. It was a good time. We even had a good breakfast; French Toast and Turkey Sausage!!! Yum! I miss him so much! And I hate that I forget sometimes. I get so caught up in staying here and sleeping, and working, and sleeping, and working... that I forget that I have an AMAZING MAN here too. We talked about a lot of things. When we want to have kids, how we're going to decorate the house, what we're going to do as far as celebrating my return, etc. We decided on waiting for the kitten I want. We'll just wait until later on that... Maybe I'll end up bringing Shelbi home with us. We'll see I suppose.

As of Lately.


Watch has been totally boring lately. Although, I've been able to get a lot of my Watch Supervisor qualifications done. It makes me look pretty good to my supervisor and watch officer. My mom is still recovering from her surgery. It worries me. I want her to be better. Jen dislocated her thumb the other day on the boats. But, some good things that happened! I got the place for sure. Ramadan is almost over which means i can start going to the pool again and get my tan back. I'm trying to decide whether I'd rather have white or tan skin. I guess the choice is mine really. I don't wanna look like a raisin when I get older. So maybe I should embrace my white skin. Sean's been back here for the last couple weeks, and in a week or two he'll be back again until he leaves for America again. GOSH! You don't realize the things you miss about America until you leave.

THE THINGS I MISS ABOUT AMERICA
  1. My Blackberry (Texting, Talking, Emailing, EVERYTHING)
  2. Cuddling, Kissing, and Hugging my fiance.
  3. Walking around and not feeling all hot and sweaty.
  4. Breathing FRESH air.
  5. Champagne Thursdays
  6. Restaurants (Really, I just miss good food.)
  7. Being girly. (Being able to go out, get my hair done, do my make-up every day.)
  8. Television.
  9. Sleeping in a COMFY bed.
  10. PRIVACY.
  11. Not having to carry a gun everywhere I go.
  12. Having normal work hours.
  13. GOOD TV stations.
  14. Family and Friends.
  15. Being able to do what I want, when I want (for the most part).
Anyway, That's just a short list.
I miss home.
