Easter Trees







Ewww I want to make one of these so bad. I am afraid once I start Easter will be over. Next year.... I will have an Easter Tree. My favorite is the Martha Stewart cherry blossom branches. I found the others on google images. I love the bonsai and the picture was just too cute.

A Farewell to My Free Week

Well spring break was last week. I had a nice time lounging around. I did take a spring break trip, but it doesnt sound as exciting as it really was. Me and my friend Sonya took a 2 hour trip to Burger King on Yokota Airbase. lol
I know it sounds lame, but when you havent had Burger king in almost 2 years plus the shopping was excellent. There was good shopping all the way to the base. Their BX is huge! It was really nice out there too; the base was set in the mountains and there was just so much space to just breathe in. Here in Yokosuka we are packed like sardines! I also spent some of my spring break gardening and finally caught one of those Dive in Movies at the gym. All in all good vacation.
This week I am back to school. I started my Marine Biology course on Tuesday with Dr.Fiedler. I am particularly excited about lab days, we go on field trips! Every Sat. we go some where, 2 weeks we go to a tidal zone, another week a sand marsh, the next an aquarium, and lastly we get to go to one of the biggest seafood markets in the world. I so excited I love animals so I am all giddy about the exspierence. Well it is getting late and need to start my day. Just felt an update was in order.

What I've Been Up To











Right now I am on spring break. I made A's in my latest classes and am impatiently waiting for Marine Biology this upcoming semester. I have been trying a few new looks with my hair, but have turned up nadda. I have been trying to get in shape, but some how gained pudge.


Recent Projects and Latest Excursions:

*Decorated my house for Easter and my cat is looking more and more like a white rabbit.

*Cody and I rearranged the furniture and it looks gooood :)

*Sonja and I went to Ikea and I found some snazzy place mats.

*Sonja and I put together a 1000 piece puzzle over during this deployment. I refuse to take it apart.

*Sonja and I drove 2 hours to eat Burger King. It was worth it! We went to Yokota Air base, the biggest base I have ever seen, you could fit 3 Yokosukas in half of Yokota. It was refreshing to finally be in a wide open space. It was so pretty the base is set near a mountain range. We shopped at the BX for almost 4 hours oogling all the new products. It was like a vacation. :)

* And lastly before Cody deployed he built a shelf for all the game systems and computer. We are going to put a computer monitor in the back of the shelf and hook it up to the TV so we can watch our downloaded movies on the big screen :) Can't wait.
