Walkin' The Line

If any of you were wondering, listening to those Army Study Guide MP3's is only barely more tolerable than actually reading all this crap.
I'm sipping sparkling grape juice and listening to this stuff, trying to clear my head and relax. Historically, as long as I'm calm, I can handle anything. I rarely make a total fool out of myself unless I freak out. Had I known tomorrow was only going to be company-level, I doubt I would have given it a second thought. Now, I get to make a trip up to Seoul after the board, even. Ummm, awesome. I'm grateful that my supply clerk is one of the soldiers here I genuinely like as a person, because tomorrow is going to be a very long day. I have no idea what time we'll end up getting back, as it looks like we'll be leaving several hours after we'd like to. Such is life. Books and a fully charged iPod are clearly in order. If you think I'm going to listen to a single Army Study Guide MP3 tomorrow, you're clearly smoking something stronger than tobacco.
Slim is clueless, and seems to change his mind weekly as to whether or not he wants to be part of my life. He already made my mind up for me, I wish he'd just move on.
Hoping to see Pretty Ricky this weekend, we'll see. Bones is trying to convince me to go to Yongsan, though I'm relatively sure that he'd stay here if I said I'd see him here. Wish I could trust him, but I can't.
I've finally had some luck getting in touch with some Baha'i folks in the area. There's three English-speaking Baha'is locally, and I'm really excited to meet them. I should get to meet one of the three- all male so far- some time this week. He's the only one I know of so far that works on post. I'm nervous, as I feel like there's a standard I'm expected to be living up to already that I'm not, but at the same time, I really, really need this. I need that community, especially with fast coming up. I need that support, the knowledge that other people believe and feel what I do. I know there are a few Baha'is in the local community- a few Korean women at the least- and that will surely make my last 6 months here more interesting. I'm really excited about this. It also makes the thought of Feast much more exciting. It all seems more tolerable with this in sight.
I'm so grateful God has brought these people into my life.
