so far, its been fun. some things suck, but i like my job and the stuff i'm doing.
only real thing that sucked was being @ Keesler down in Biloxi for 3 months after Katrina hit. man what a depressing hell hole that was. (obviously, probably a tropical island compared to the desert, but really, there was nothing but destruction and death all around us).
stupid bitch.
but what was bad about it? your living conditions? the work you did? or the fact that you were there?

really just the fact of being there. it was a tech-schooling environment, and so we didn't work (just classroom stuff and PT). but whenever you went off base (and, really, even about 25% of the base too), all there was to look at was random shit in the polluted and infectious water of the gulf, demolished and destroyed buildings, and an overall aura of just depression.
everyday i'd see the same apartment buildings and hotels that had shit still hanging out their windows, and the bottom two floors were completely removed from the 30 foot waves that plowed into it.
it sounds rediculously nerdy , but i feel really in-tuned w/ weather...and my heart goes out so much to those people who lived there and lost everything.
