catchup!!

Man it's been a long time since i've been able to update this...and a lot has happened.
Sorry to do this folks, but since i'm on borrowed time in an internet cafe in Anchorage for my day off, the update will have to be in bulleted format.
(figures, when i have so much to say and not enough time to say it)

-i've been working 50-60hr weeks with usually a day off. You know what that means...lots of naptime between breakfast and dinner shifts, and then dinner to breakfast shifts. Not even enough to constitute a full nights rest...so i call them powernaps. But the pay is worth it.

-I've seen wildlife!!! A couple of moose between Cooper Landing and Soldotna and then BEARS!!! Two happy little cubs playing by the Kenai river when i went on a float trip with Ryan for $15 (yeah employee discounts!) and I swear I met the river guide at a party weeks ago. He looked familiar but I figured under the circumstances of said party (alcohol consumption..shame shame) I shouldnt inquire.

-Lots of little trips, hikes, walks, etc. around Cooper Landing. Walking to the cemetary, community center and library is about a 1-2 mile venture one way and when the sun is out, I feel like I could just keep on walking. But then I would miss work the next day and that would not be good.

-I, Ryan Yohe, am addicted to bingo. Sandy and Tiana took me to Soldotna last week to play Bingo with some wild and crazy old Alaskan beauties. I was definitely the youngest person playing and ALMOST won about 3 games, including the $900 blackout by 3 numbers. Ugh, next time I will strike it big...and yes there will be a next time. I am hooked.

-Still need to work on my internship project, but dont have to turn in any paperwork until i return to columbus...thank god. That takes a big burden off me, but the project still needs to get rolling...ASAP? You betcha.

-Possibly buying a new digital camera which will make picture uploading about 12491234 times easier....theoretically. We shall see, and i will inform the masses if pictures are uploaded onto my Webshots site.

-workout/exercise regimen up to 75 crunches and pushups 2X/daily. Still pushing myself everyday on top of lifting crazy amounts of weight on trays and such. Hopefully it will all pay off when i'm taking my two weight training classes this quarter...yes, we're talking 3 easy credits right there.


I thought I had more to say before i blanked....but here we are.

I'll be home in 4 weeks, it feels so weird to say that. And I will live up the rest of my time in Alaska while banking at the same time.

...and to think in one month i'll have to be RESPONSIBLE for the rest of the year....hahahahahahahaha

-Yohe
