Since last update:
-AOBICR
  *  Indoctrination Class covering life in Japan, driving, cultural ettiquette, how to use chopsticks.
  *  Passed Japanese Driving Exam.
-Sortie for Shanshan
  *  Typhoon "threatened" CFAY (Commander, Fleet Activities Yokosuka), so we all took out.
  *  Dozens of ships out in a matter of days--impressive
  *  I stayed behind to attend a Navy school
-Found a house!
  *  Two stories
  *  4.6 miles from the gate
  *  Wood floors
  *  Back door
  *  Full oven
    +Japanese ovens are the size of shoe boxes--finding a US size oven was a huge accomplishment.
-Ja-Pun!
  *  GREAT musical play about life in Japan as a foreigner.  
  *  It's a little odd for me every time I realize that I am the foreigner
  *  Went with three school teachers from Ikego Naval Base--an absolute riot
-Division Officer Leadership School
  *  One important piece of information a day
  *  Each cushioned by five hours of boredom
  *  Met some great people
-Going away party for PS2(AW) Kevin Oneth
  *  PS2 is one of my favorite people on the ship...only he didn't show up to his own party
  *  Despite the fact he didn't come, we still had an awesome karaoke contest, good food, and a good time overall
  *  My renditions of Dancing Queen (ABBA) and I'm Too Sexy (Right Said Fred) rocked the house
  *  ...but PS1(SW)'s rendition of Delilah worked me over...but he had the advantage of having had a few beers.
-Asian Bizarre at CFAY
  *  Tonnes of furniture from Korea, China, N. Japan, Thailand, and...Ireland(???)
  *  Lots of other more random stuff
  *  Bought some great dishes and mugs for cheap.
-This week
  *  Morale Officer School (Yes, I am the morale officer in USS COWPENS)
  *  Paperwork on the house (until I do the paperwork, I'm stuck on the ship)
  *  Navy Ball?
  *  Church

I hope that you're all having fine Navy days...I hope more that you all update so I know what's going on in your lives.  I hope most that Kyle updates--what happened to that guy?  Take care, God Bless.  DSC
