After only one week of freedom I am already bored out of my mind. With no job to fill up my free time and with half of my friends already starting college or working, it’s been difficult to find ways to pass the days. By now I know the tv schedule from 8 am until about 11 pm and I’ve already gone through two decent sized books. After a conversation with my mom it was decided that I would fly back to Okinawa for several reasons (one of them being my complete and utter boredom, another being my parents loneliness, and yet another being the nearly 5 weeks I still have remaining until I move into my dorm).
When I left in the beginning of the summer I didn’t expect to return until winter break. However, in a short matter of 2 hours, my whole summer plans changed. Now I’ll be back in Okinawa (driving off base), helping my parents, and not wanting to die of boredom.
The thing that really sucks about going back is the 11 and a half hour flight from San Francisco to Tokyo (plus 3 hours of extra travel and 7 hours of layovers).
Although it wasn’t originally my plan, I’m still pretty excited about how this next month will go.
