Christmas Eve @ Tokyo Disneyland

This is waiting for the train to come. I don't know what she is fixing on me or what Heaton is looking at, but I will say that while the trains are always on time they are SO CROWDED! I had to stand for forty five minutes on the way home...and they actually do pack those Japanese people in there like feesh! Then we its time for them to get off you better hang on to your little ringie thing or your going to get sucked out of the train by the wave of pushy people!!! its a war zone in there!
Nightmare before Christmas!
Thunder Mountain!
The one and only churro stand in the entire park! Seriously I went on a savage hunt! Team leader right here...and no fresh baked cookies! OMG!
Us having a ball!
Heaton pretending to have fun with me
Me telling heaton to have FUN! at least fake it for the picture! Think "happiest place on earth on Christmas Eve with ME!" Hello....lol
Another set of ears....and one for you too! On its way but currently residing in the box with all your stuff from Korea, Guam, and the Big Buddha!
Their castle is bigger! But our fireworks is like a million and three times better and longer and they didn't have music with it! Laaame, I know!
MERRY CHRISTMAS!
Friends....Tokyo Disney
First buying the ears before we enter the park
They're just too adorable photogenic people!


So that was Christmas Eve. Christmas day was a lot like thanksgiving: lonley. I had Randy still. We saw each other and extanged gifts...little thoughtful gifts. None of that $500 i pod touches or coach purses! lol. We had dinner at TGI Fridays, even thought it wasn't friday :( It still tasted exelcente and then we had crepes. Which in Japan are like a sweet burrito full of ice cream or cheese cake. Mine was chocolate ice cream, strawberries and cheese cake. I think Randy got vanilla. Then i bought a cute pair of boots to wear tomorrow when I go SNOWBOARDING!
HOLLLA!
Yes i have to wake up tonight at 1ish and be there by 2am! The bus leave at 230am and we snowboard all day! The whole thing was mad cheep. Like 55 for the ticket, (transportation) and 40 for the lift ticket, 15 for snowboard and boot and google rental. I have a brand new pair of snowpants and Victor in the kind giving (cough** buzzed) state he was in while i was telling him that i was going boarding let me borrow his jacket. Its really nice. He took about 20 minutes showing me all the secret pockets and cool "tricks" that this jacket can do. The next day i saw him at work and he was like Sam, I know what i did last night...and i dont regret it, but please just dont loose it or hurt it because it means a lot to me and it was super expensive. It was so cute! Poor kid. Ex-boyfriends arent always a bad thing :)

So talk to you guys soon i hope!<3>

Picture Updates

Command Christmas Party 2008
This is me and Jay in a nutshell. Besties

Take One For the Team


Let my people GO…
Yeah, it’s five thirty and my division isn’t even off yet. I don’t care because I have duty and I am stuck in this metal box anyways. I still worked really hard though. I had painted two huge spaces. They are so big that they were supposed to be sprayed down. Long story short we are getting screwed again. He won’t let anyone leave so people couldn’t go pick up their uniforms for the ever important huge inspection that was supposed to be tomorrow. Now the inspection is next Friday. WOW I just paid eighty dollars for a new uniform and had my stuff rushed so they would be done in time for this inspection! He isn’t kidding either. Neither am I.

So jeez another duty day already. I am sorry I haven’t been posting lately. I have been busy everyday and every night. Last night…OMG…we went to Chili’s for my friend Rivera’s birthday and WOW every person at the table was having fun. I really mean having fun. It was insane we were all buying big fish bowl drinks and using our empty shot glasses to take shorts out of the “fish bowl.” A lot of the guys were Latin and they had me ROLLING!
Then…we went bowling. Seven dollar pitchers: Enough Said! Me and Jay are hanging out again!! I’m super happy about that…its like Kara, Kelly, Kaitlyn, Kim and Kylie all in one. I have so much fun with this girl. When her and I were in A school I remember walking back from the NEX with our arms full of groceries and we’d just start laughing so hard we couldn’t stand and we’d be on the sidewalk laughing out butts off! I guess what they say is true: Guys will come and go…but your girls will always be around. :)
After bowling I realized that they deactivated my key to my freeking room. So here I am all tipsy and I’m trying to break in my window with Jay n Jeremy. LOL It looked funny. The next day, today, was supposed to be crappy because of how crazy last night was. So I get to work and Teronnes is like “Aker…get over here. “ I thought he was going to yell at me for talking to Randy or something like everyone always does…but NOPE! He had made me an egg and ham breakfast sandwich with a Sunkist. Man I love that kid. He just made my day.
I have pictures from Bowling and Chili’s. They’re HILARIOUS! Gamble took my memory card from my camera so I don’t have them with me but I do have a picture from painting at work today.

Catch-up

Hello
Sorry it’s been four days since I’ve posted. I have had a lot going on. Last blog before the Britney Spears one I was heading off to a hypnotist show. I got hypnotized and I have videos of that. Which I watched and they’re funny. I want to wait for the guy to give me the video of the whole thing because my friends didn’t catch my Britney Spears performance. Anyways I need to post those.

The next day Brem and I went shopping and I found the cutest pup. Brem wanted to name him Tofu if we got him. He was so tiny and just wanted to play. I felt bad for him. It was hard to talk to him, what with the whole language barrier thing. I also found some interesting items of clothing. I took pictures. I will post those too tomorrow. I cant right now because I am on duty. :(

Friday was the command Christmas Party. I looked so pretty in my dress. I have pictures of that too. The party wasn’t that good. It was three floors and there wasn’t really any dancing. THAT’S ALL I WANTED TO DO! I didn’t want to drink or even really be with my friends I just wanted to DANCE. Everyone ended up at the Honch by 9 I’d say. By 11 I went home. I got bored really fast and felt super alone and out of place in George’s which is weird, because sadly that’s my second home.

So basically I’ve just been trucking along. Of course doing some retail therapy which is going to get me into trouble. But I had a little money put away so DON’T WORRY DAD! Beer budget on wine taste, right? That will always be me. I say… “Money can’t buy you happiness, but it can create such a close facsimile that you can’t tell the difference.” Just Kidding! But honestly its always going to come…money that is.

Sorry I’m so boring. Tomorrow the pictures will be fun to look at. AH I’m so beautiful. LOL

L0ve You

Wow. This is one of the many reasons I LOVE LAND! New videos come out...like this one

Yeah that was funny. I love Miley. This blog was supposed to be all about Britney. Because I LOVE HER AND THIS IS HER REAL COMEBACK! So she was on the cover of (OO) and she looked so pretty. I was reading it walking across the flight deck and I was like LOOK VICTOR. THATS BRITNEY he was like no its not that girl is hot. I showed it to Andy and everyone in my division! I am so happy. Lol I sound like Mandy with all that "You have to see Britney through her darkest hours, days, years it seems like but she's good now. Here are her two new videos which are AMAZING! I am so happy. She looks hot again! That girl really knows how to make a buck. This is why she is my idol. Wow I sould like a goober. I'm going to stop.

Budddhhhaaaa


Sunday we went to the Big Buddha. It cost 200 Yen to get inside the "park," and it only cost 20 yen to actually go inside him. He is hollow. Not many people would think that by looking at him, but its true. Buddha is empty. Anyways it was a really fun trip. Brem and I were so proud of ourselves that we got there all on our own. Of course we asked a couple of people for help, but it doesn't count because we couldn't understand a word that they were saying. 

We went to the Big Buddha. 
I'm not sure what this is, or what it says. It was really pretty and I was so mad that I didn't know how to read it!  
Me and the Buddha.

This cat was so cute. I'm not a cat person but this cat was illin'. He and I were hanging out in-front of the heater. He let me pet him. I loved it, he loved it.

Golden Internet

At any one given time there are about five free internet connections all over this base. You could probably stop anywhere and get internet. Tonight I tried everywhere and couldn't get any at all!!! I tried the bowling alley, the food court, starbucks, the barracks.... at each place I had full signal but could not connect. So I'm all upset and I sit down in the middle of nowhere at a Gazebo and guess what....MWR Hot Spot Park Gazebo, I got full internet. The only down side is its freezing and my dumb ass didn't feel like wearing a jacket. But I am so excited to blog that I dont even care.
Ok. Everyone. I got skype. Its free. Download it ASAP so we can video chat! Just go to skype.com and follow the directions!! So get it kait, before next weekend so I can see my baby momma all plump and cute!! LOVE YOU!! :)

That weekend is going to be so busy because Friday night we have the Christmas Party and then we have to be at the Outdoor Rec at 230am that night because thats when the snowboarding trip starts! IM SOOOOO EXCITED! I cant wait! I should buy a jacket, for now I mean. Because its super cold. Why is my computer such a brat! so picky where she wants to get internet.

I got a new Toaster!!

This is my very own toaster, of course I will share it with Brem, (there are not two, not three, but FOUR bread toaster slots!) I am very excited about my new purchase. OH and I bought that silverware too! 

Last night Randy and I went grocery shopping. Something we havent done in about nine months together, not since we lived together in VB. It was so nice. I'm like I want this, this and that and I dont care how much it cost, and he's taking stuff out of our cart being like "You cant buy that this one is cheaper and you get more." or feeling the bread trying to get the softer ones. LOL I'm like I want what I want and we arent sharing our money right now so let me! hahh in the end opted for the "more bang for your buck" option, as he says. 

In other news my little sister emailed me and says my cousin wanted to join the Navy and he thought it was cool. Well here are a couple of pictures. Remember pictures cant lie! 
This will be your toilet.
This is the inside of your shower.
You will wait in line for that nasty, and normally not hot shower and you will shower with other people.
This would be your living room.  
This would be your closet, for ALL of your shoes and cloths and anything else.

I miss you and your Yams!

My mom sent me the cutest e-card for Thanksgiving. i didn't get it until just now. 

THANKS MOMMY! 

You have to watch it!  <3

WAKE UP AMERICA! WAKE UP!

I just tried to make Jason, Smith and Oliver watch this video. They weren't digging it. :( It's okay, I told them that everyone in my life starts off normal but by the end they are finding themselves singing Britney Spears songs and watching Hannah Montana!

Mexican in Japan

Strawberry Margarita
It was really good.

Last night I said I was craving some Mexican food...and the two times I had Taco Bell weren't cutting it. Brem found this really good Mexican food. The only downside is there are like three flights of stairs to get to it, which wouldn't be a problem if their margaritas weren't so strong!

OH Kait..I caught Benny RED HANDED!

He Lied to us Kaitlyn!! There is your sweatshirt, that he said he lost over and over again! 
I'm still at starbucks
Me feeling pathetic that I am at Starbucks, still, when I could have been camping with my dad or in the desert with my mom.
If thats not enough I went to George's last night and Breez had my Tin Benders sweatshirt on. lol he was like I knew this had to come from somewhere. 

I'm going to Randys house now, after I finish watching this episode of the Mandy and Miley show.

Horrible Thanksgiving

Today is Thanksgiving in Japan. Happy Thanksgiving everyone back home and in Michigan, and in VA....I don't know anyone else anywhere. 

So we didn't have work today. I woke up at seven, which is sleeping in to me. Randy called around 930. We were supposed to go meet my friend and have Thanksgiving dinner at her friends house, but Randy locked himself out of his room in shorts and a t-shirt.  So I came over all dressed up with red tights a cream colored sweater tunic and my cute new boots that I bought yesterday. Anyways we couldn't make it because he had to wait for this guy to come back from lunch so he could get a new key.

We ended up at McDonald's and I had a BigMac for Thanksgiving. :) lol its cool. The holiday is a little overrated. 

...yah, this does suck. I miss my family. 

Well we all went to starbucks. Smitty, Jason, Randy and I. Jason and Smith left and then Randy left me. So here I am. Out of $$$ because I had to HAVE those boots. There were $108, which isn't bad, but when your used to shoe shopping in Korea and street shops in Japan it is! 

I'm thinking about ordering another gingerbread latte and then go walk around the city. 

Randy went to shiboua, thats probably not how you spell it but you say it like Shoe-boo-yah. If you want to see where he went watch 2 Fast 2 Furious. The scene where they drift into the most crowded intersection in the world. 

im bored

Base Pictures

HI! We are at Starbucks right now. Just wanted to post some new, really new, like 10 minute old pictures! Enjoy!
This is pretty enough to be a Christmas Card Picture
Aw I LOVE HIM!
So they just walked in and I was like "OMG you guys look so cute." They said that they are kindergarten teachers and they let me take a picture with them.
The Starbucks on base that we are in right now!
The base, its all hilly and grassy... I like this picture! 
All the cars are so little. I could probably lift them....probably
This is HOME. The second window on the left. Outside one. So I came home from work and Brem got me presents! Along with the plants she got me gelly snowflakes to put on our window and a play dough scenery. 
This is my plant. She is a poinsettia, I named her Holly. I know its plain but its a classic Christmas name.
This is Brems plant. She couldn't think of a name but she knew she wanted it to start with a "T" so I named him Tenenbaub. 

In other news we got an unsat on our first inspection. I couldn't believe that they already had an inspection! We failed because we had cloths (dirty and clean) in piles on the floor and we didn't have our stuff locked up. First off wow its only been two days. The NEX and the 10o Yen store is out of hangers so all my dresses and coats were on the floor. Second...we have to buy a dirty cloths hamper. So whatever.... A girl already got caught with a guy in her room overnight. What a loser! People seriously just push the envelope.

We are about to go get some dinner! Brem knows this Italian place and I'm craving some Italian food! So were off...
PS We had to run our PRT and Brem did soooo Good She got a 1215 on her run and I got a 1230. Randy did 91 sit ups and 71 push-ups and he got a 1108 on his run! We all did good! 
Thank God that is over!
