Well I'm flying to Houston tomorrow to meet the Maersk Constellation. I'll be out for 120 days, which brings me home about two and a half weeks before my Son is born. The first trip after I get on board is an Aid trip to Djibouti Africa. When I get back I'll posts some pictures, but from what I understand there is nothing that memorable, except the poverty and corruption, about Djibouti. I hope that everyone has a good summer and I look forward to hearing from everyone in the Fall.

Here are some recent pictures! We went to Shimoda beach south of Tokyo for Memorial day/my Bday. The fat guys are from a Sumo match we went to in Tokyo.

So this week is prep week for me, next week I have finals and the week afte that I have training for my Summer job and the week after that I start summer school. I just got my housing assignment for summer and I get to live in one of the campus apartments, so Im not in a dorm for the summer, I get a kitchen and all that whatnot. (Visitors welcome!)

Here some recent pictures. It has some from Easter, a few random things, the Bulldog Jog (a 5K I did, I tried to run the whole way, but I got sick just before it and there were too many hills!!)

Im starting the process of applying for the Italian Visa to go abroad. (Remeber my Italy Blog is found here and if you want to get e-mails when I update it, just let me know! Ive only blogged about my class schedule thus far, but I promise it will get exciting when I get to Italy!)

I can not believe that I am halfway done with college already! Its so mind boggling for me to think that there will be a time when Im not a student anymore. And all the things Im going to miss while Im studying abroad are really starting to hit me. Like Gonzaga could be totally different when I get back. Hopefully my classmates can hold down the fort for the rest of us who skip out on junior year in spokane.
