Eisa and Orion Beer Festival 2009

This weekend there was an Eisa and Orion Beer Festival near the base. Alex went TDY on Saturday and should be back later on this week but I'm not planning on him being back anytime soon. So Liz and I went since the rest of the group opted out. We arrived really early so for next year the beer part opens at 4 and Eisa starts at 3. We had fun people watching and listening to Okinawa music. Also next year we are going to play a drinking game since the two announcer said Orion about 5 times in a sentence.

Hi-Ho Hi-Ho Off To Work We Go

Last week, I started working again at the school. Within the first 30 minutes be being at work I got a new job. I'm now the PSCD aide, which is the SPED Preschool. I really did not want to do it but I knew no one else wanted to be that aide. So I took one for the team and it has paid off. Since I have to be with the kids all the time, I will no longer be doing cafeteria or recess duty. I will help out the other aides when time allows. Plus, I found out today that my teacher put in a request for more work hours for me and it was APPROVED. I guess that means no more leaving early on training days with the rest of girls. I will miss my old kids but I know they are in good hands. I'm excited to work with my new kids. Another sad part about this new position is I wont be working as closely with the other aides. I will miss the talks in the hallway and eating lunch with them.
