I guess I just can't relate to how you feel because I have had to grow accustomed to being the "only one" in the room at times, depending on where I frequent. Being a minority is something I assume a white person doesn't often experience. I have just learned over time to be more tolerant of people that are "different". Just a word of advice from a random stranger try to be a little more patient and accepting of other cultures and it will get easier over time.3 Cupcakeshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07015192358295493063noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7814740137597406278.post-37034653942557528012010-08-17T15:34:41.540-04:002010-08-17T15:34:41.540-04:00I hope you start feeling better soon.

Bad idea! I had to re-do my makeup!<br /><br />I had some bad feelings about Hawaii at first but over time, it's gotten better.

Rig...Sad and grumpy always go hand in hand with me. Right now it's what we call "pink pill week" which has made this whole field exercise thing much more difficult than I expected. I've been irritable all weekend when the poor guy was being clingy because he was leaving. <br /><br />FROCONUS... :) That cracks me up! :) Lots of the things you are talking about are things I have wondered about. I think you're right, our expectations do determine a big part of our experience. Like, I know this is on a more minor scale, but we had talked to some people about this class and what we could expect, since it's our first chance living together again and all...and of course, no one else had this stupid CC with his experimental methods, so no one else spent 11 out of 16 weeks in the field. Not to mention that when we got here, the XO told us wives at orientation the guys would only have field training 5 or 6 weeks TOTAL, and that most of the time it would only be for a couple of days at a time. So this has been a huge challenge because we were told one thing and prepared for one thing when it turned into another. I mean, I still think that it's possible to bloom where you're planted no matter what, but man, it's easier when you have an idea of what's coming.<br /><br />And BTW, I just want to clarify, that 30 blogger is the sponsor's requirement. :) She originally said 50, and I was like, "Uh, that won't work!" :) I feel so much pressure because I really want to do this giveaway and she's the kind of person who would be like, "You only got 29? Sorry, we agreed on 30." So thanks for mentioning it! :) I really want to hit that goal!JGhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03116405895683599572noreply@blogger.com
