kuwait

so were in kuwait now. really exciting... haha. its not too bad here. its not super hot yet which makes it a lot less miserable than it could be. the only major problem is that my tent is like a mile from everything else ( that really isnt an exagerration, its really that far). it makes it very hard to motivate myself to do anything or go anywhere. i did however find out about a shuttle after walking about 5 miles the first day. this place is pretty built up, got fast food joints like burger king, subway, taco bell, and some different things. There was a Camp Beuring american idol last night. So there are people around and a lot of different things going on.
We started doing some more training today. Driving around MRAPs (more up-armored vehicles). well do some training here and get some more gear issued before we head to iraq. Cant really say when we leave but once we get there ill be able to let you know.
its crazy being here, the first day when we walked outside the sun def blinded me. you can see forever out here. i mean, you would expect it but it is still weird. i feel like im still in the states at just another training site, dont really feel like im in another country, continent and all that good stuff.
sorry its not too informative, just a quick update. love you all

  1. It's just amazing to think that you're in places most of us will never get to go to. Soak it up for the rest of us, KT!
