Well as the title says, its been a while since I’ve updated this blog on my life and my adventures. Just a few months shy of two years actually. Its wild to think how fast time flies. I’d like to blame my lack of updates on the slow internet on Kwajalein Atoll but thats onlyContinue reading “Its been a while”

One day I swear I will be better about keeping this blog up to date. I definitely go up and down with my commitment to it. Which should be evident by how sporadic the post are. Maybe the answer would be making a schedule and sticking to the schedule for the post. I know whenContinue reading “Forever Playing Catch Up”

Like I said in the last post, after The War Run, life didn’t let up. The week after being in North Carolina, I was at the Nashville Airport waiting to catch a plane to Denver. It was going to be my first time in Colorado and I couldn’t be more excited about it. I wasContinue reading “Still Playing Catch Up”

Once I got back to the states, life turned into a mad rush for a little while. In my typical fashion I didn’t tell many people I was coming home. Papa & Nanny Hill were two of the first ones I surprised. I worked out great, they were both caught off guard. It was great.Continue reading “Always Playing Catchup”

As the title states, its been a good minute since I’ve posted on here. Antarctica’s internet really wasn’t super conducive to this site. That ,combined with some of the struggles I faced while wintering over, made for the perfect concoction for me not to post on here. So this may be a long post sinceContinue reading “Well…its been a while”

So I know its been a little over a month since my last post. I can give several excuses as to why its been so long, but like all excuses, they will all stink. Life is good here, I’ve settled into somewhat of a routine. We are still working 24 hr shifts for now, butContinue reading “2nd Update from The Ice”

I’ve been on the Ice for almost two weeks and life has been hectic to say the least. Luckily I’m generally good at adapting to new situations quickly. It also helps that most people here know how it is to be the new guy who doesn’t have a clue about whats going on. Luckily lifeContinue reading “1st Update from The Ice”

I’ve been in New Zealand for 5 days now, and I’m enjoying it. My ice flight is suppose to be in the morning. I’m excited about finally flying down to the ice, however I am slightly anxious too. Its a rare emotion for me, it may be due to the fact that I’m finally startingContinue reading “Pre-Ice Flight Post”

What a last couple days it has been, both privately and professionally. I trudge on though. I met 3 of my co-workers yesterday, including my Captain/officer in charge for the duration of my deployment. I like all three of them luckily. Only 8 more of them to meet, fingers crossed. I have faith, plus I’mContinue reading “Airport Boredom = Blog Post”

Fortune favors the bold is one of my favorite quotes and one I use very often. Whether it be in my own life or when asked advice by my friends. It happens to be a very fitting title for my first blog post, especially at the time I’m writing this. The idea of a blogContinue reading “Audentis Fortuna iuvat”
