Au Revoir?
I'm at Java Joe's right now. It is approx. 4:30pm June 9, '08. Officially got my license today. The police officer that escorted me had me drive a long ways away from the Motor Vehicle Bldg. I took a right at the Bldg. and headed towards Garapan, then right towards Middle Road where I drove through Gualo Rai then left towards San Vicente. He then had me take a right into As Lito through Kanat Tabla and up towards Dandan where I curved down-left towards San Antonia and back to the Motor Vehicle Department. I made obvious head movements towards the rear-view mirror as a show of my 'alertness'.
I can only recall one power outage occurring over the past two days. That was really strange to me. Black-outs on Saipan have grown to be so morbid that the occurrence of at least two outages in a single day uproots a sensation of unfamiliarity.
Oh, guess what?! I heard Beautify CNMI is holding a Boonie Dog Pageant next month. Lol! Man, if I wasn't due to leave four days from now then I'd surely mark my calendar for that event. Hai adai...
Sonia, Anita, Caroline, Xiao, Jesse, John, Ryan, Hazel, Ryan, Richelle, Adeleyah, Frank, Andrew and I (Did I miss anyone?)leave for Vegas on the 13th--that's four days from now. WOW, does time fly by or what?! Right after Vegas, I'm leaving straight for college. I'll be in Portland, Oregon-- ;) --staying with my cousin Mark all throughout the summer until classes start in August. Mark lives 4 miles away from my school! My dad will be flying over with Mark's dad--my uncle Frank--in July. I've got another cousin and two aunts staying in the Portland area, too. I'm excited to leave, but pre-departure nostalgia is already starting to take it's toll.
My MHS friends and I want to do something before I leave. Ah, how I love 'bon voyage' rituals. I'd like to have a bon fire at the beach on Wednesday night: put my bare feet in the sand, wade in calm black ocean water, lay prostrate in the sea while gazing up at the stars... Then plant my wet-clothed buttocks in the sand while warming myself by the fire with friends and familiar faces surrounding me. I like the sound of that...
:O
Ok, I've got to go. I mentioned that I'm at JJoes right now, but I did not mention that I've been working my ass off building my FX tub this whole past week. Pardon my French.
Oh, Hi Caroline and Mel! They walked in, then left.
Back to work...

I've got a ton of books in my room I'm either planning on selling or giving away. Anyone interested? If not, they're going to the library at the hospital. Or my school library.
