..??????â€?????â€!????????????????????!I'M FROM LAKE WORTH, FLORIDA (FLORIDA GARDENS) ORIGINALLY, BUT FOR MORE THAN 3-1/2 YEARS I'VE BEEN LIVING IN OKINAWA, JAPAN. I'VE HAD THE TIME OF MY LIFE IN OKINAWA, MAKING NEW FRIENDS AND LEARNING THE CULTURE AND THE LANGUAGE. IT'S A GREAT PLACE TO VISIT, AND I WOULD RECOMMEND THAT ANYBODY WHO ENJOYS TRAVELING AND SEEING OTHER CULTURES COME OUT HERE. TO ALL OF MY FRIENDS BACK HOME, HIT ME UP IF YOU NEED A PLACE TO STAY. SOME OF THE THINGS I LIKE TO DO OUT HERE WHEN I'M NOT WORKING ARE CAMPING, KAYAKING, SNORKELING, GOING TO IZAKAYAS(DRINKING BAR/RESTAURANT MIX), GOING TO KARAOKE BARS, AND CHILLIN WITH MY FRIENDS. I LIKE THIS PLACE ALOT, SO I DON'T PLAN ON GOING BACK HOME FOR A WHILE.
ABOUT MY WORK; SINCE MAY 2004 I'VE BEEN WORKING IN THE IT DIVISION FOR THE DEPARTMENT OF DEFENSE DEPENDENT SCHOOLS, WHICH SUPPORTS MORE THAN 14,000 WORKSTATIONS IN SOUTH KOREA, MAINLAND JAPAN, OKINAWA, AND GUAM. I STARTED AS AN INTERN AND NOW I'M THE NETWORK ADMINISTRATOR AT AMELIA EARHART INTERMEDIATE SCHOOL ON KADENA AIR BASE.
STONE HARBOR FAMILY REUNION 6/18-6/25
FROM 6/18-6/25 I WENT BACK TO THE STATES (NEW JERSEY) TO GO TO A BIG FAMILY REUNION THEY HAVE EVERY YEAR. THIS IS MY FIRST TIME GOING SINCE I WAS LIKE 15, SO IT WAS PRETTY TIGHT. I GOT TO KNOW ALL MY COUSINS AND GOT PRETTY TIGHT WITH SOME OF THEM. IT WAS A REALLY GREAT WEEK, AND EVEN THOUGH JETLAG WAS HELL, I HOPE TO GO EVERY SUMMER.
