Well, I am just now counting down the matter of days I leave Turkey (for security reasons, I will not give specific dates).

End of this month I fly back home to spend about a month of leave back in the Philadelphia area...back to driving the MR2...maybe selling it...seeing family and friends...being lazy.

End of November I catch a flight to Seattle to grab the military "rotator" that is Yokota AB-bound. If you don't know, Yokota AB is 40 minutes from downtown Tokyo...basically in Tokyo suburbs. I'll be stationed there for at least 2 years or [if reenlist] longer. I cannot live off-base since I am single so I live in a dorm....again, like I do currently here.

Once there, I plan to get a car. MR2, ITR, Skyline....something along those lines will be mine. Unfortunately, taxes are so high there that it will hurt me monetarily in the short run.

Work-wise...the systems I'll be maintaining I have already worked on for several years...best part is I'm fully qualified on these systems so I'll just be kicking back and enjoying Japan.


I won't turn this into a "what JDM goodness can I send you!?!?!?!" thread.



Well, that's what is going on with me.
