Hey yall

okay so things are going great here st sheppard, classes are fun and the pool rocks. i'm currently working on the whole picture thing so hold ur horses on what the base looks like. i found out last week that i will be in japan for a coupple of years. i also found out what happens to us white boys when we go 12 weeks without any sunlight to our skins. we burn like hell the day after we finally see some. lets just say i don't care how much sunscreen i used yesterday i am still burn like a lobster. i put it on every hour and i still cooked. speaking of cooked. i was ask to be the "chef" for a group of females who are having an all female party on june 30th. how ironick. they want the birthday boy to cook for them. actually they don't know its my birthday. if they did they probably wouldn't have asked me to do it in the first palce. all i have to say to that is booya. so yes it's official i will be turning the big 20 at the end of the month and yes i know that it means i will be half way to 40. well to all of those out there who can't wait to say this all i have to say to u is........and ur how old? yeah thats what i thought.....older than me.

so my career field is going to be quite interesting. from what my instructor tells me... this is a group of brothers and sisters who like to play jokes on oneanother...especially if ur the new guy. well i still don't know for sure my arrival date home but i do know that i will be staying for about 12 days.

well i love you all and miss you too
Love
