Insight: 3 Paychecks Later

S20, Carberry and I all had our pics made at the beach before Schwab Fest. You can tell that it was rainy. Thats because it was Saturday. Haha.

So I realize that it has been 3 paychecks since I last updated. That is not my intention, however, I haven't really been doing much of anything compliments of all the rain. The "rainy season" is no joke. It never fails...it will be beautiful all week and then rain Friday thorugh Sunday (except during the 96 then it rains through Tuesday). I had a crazy experience this weekend. I went to bed rather early after range week on Friday. When I woke up the following morning I had a slight panic attack... I looked outside and it wasn't raining. I honestly thought I had slept until Monday.

I went to Schwab Fest since I last updated. They had some belly dancers perform, as well as a local band "Kentucky Rain" followed by the main event, LIT. Kentucky Rain rocks. LIT was just eehhh. I met some really cool people there, however, I never got their name. It really is a shame I know. However, I got to hang out with another Stokesian, Taylor Hall. Needless to say we had a good time.

Guitarist from Kentucky Rain. Also plays at a local bar (Al's Place) on Gate 2 Street.

Like I said early I had range week. I finished qualifying this past Friday. I shot a low expert. It wasn't what I wanted, but Schwab is the worst range in the Marine Corps so I guess I will take what I can get.

This past Saturday a couple people I work with and I went to our intern's high school graduation. It was pretty much like a graduation in the states, but somehow they make it last longer. I was glad I had the opportunity to support her nonetheless.
