John-Kun's JournalWednesday, March 16, 20115:34AM - Wow...almost forgot about LiveJournal.Hello all. Its been a looooong time since I updated on here. Thought id say hi. Not much new, at least from my perspective. Ive been in Egypt for the last 6 months and I got 6 more months to go. I am sooo tired of this place. At least I can visit Israel whenever I want. Tuesday, April 7, 20095:14PM - ooh, also...Forgot to mention...On the nerd side of things, I play everquest 2 now (got banned from WoW). In EQ2, I got a Companion Cube the other day! For anyone who has played Portal, this is kick ass. Much more going on on the nerd side of the John, but ill comment later. 5:09PM - EEEP!Today after Sarah and I went house shopping, we stopped at a shopping center to look around, so we checked out PetSmart first(plus i had to go peepee). Longstory short we ended up adopting a kitten. He's the newest addition to our little family, even if he is tiny and crushable (sniffle). His names Tigger. Sunday, March 29, 20092:59PM - Ooh, good story.Apparently the worlds smaller than i thought. Friday, February 6, 20094:02AM - WOOOO!!So, Im finally outta the Army. Just got honorably discharged and am pursuing some job opportunities and some schooling opportunities open to me. God it feels like forever since I've been out, it's almost scary. Sarah and I are planning a trip to Oregon, hopefully itll work out. Anyways, there is plenty more going on but not enough time to type it right now. Gotta do stuff with the family and stay up late playing PS3. I realized i bought waaaaaayy too many games for it while in Iraq. Gotta catch up and beat some of the ones i havent finished but i cant stop beating Metal Gear Solid 4 over and over for unlockables. I WILL GET YOU STEALTH SUIT!!! Thursday, November 20, 20084:19PMYawn...Oh yeah, im back in the US now. Hit me up sometime, ill have my cell up sometime today. Friday, November 14, 20082:16PM - Also...Also, me and about everyone i know over here are totally pissed that Obama won. Thank god for presidential assassins right? 2:00PM - Hey all!Hiya Everybody! Long time no update, i know. I just wanted to let everybody know i should be back in the states in a week or less. Ill be getting out of the Army around the beginning of January and droppin in to good ol Oregon (just kidding, i hate oregon) to pay a visit. I hope to see as many people as i can while im there because its gonna be one of the last times im in oregon for a long while. Of course my wife is up for convincing, so if she decides she likes it alot there, maybe that will make her wanna move there. Current mood:  chipperTuesday, October 7, 20087:29PM - Been a While...Hey all, it's been a while, thought id update. Only a month and a half left over here in beautiful Iraq. About a month after I get back to the states ill be getting out of the army once and for all. Sarah and I are planning a road trip up to Oregon from Oklahoma for a couple weeks in January, so i hope to get to see you guys then. Ill have more to update soon. Friday, July 11, 20084:39PM - Looking for My Doorway To SummerSo, having beaten MGS4 for the 4th time (and, dear God, it is epic Wednesday, June 18, 20087:02PM - Hmm...Capitalism is an interesting monsterSo I was bored and thinking about my options for after the Army one night, when i decided to look into Blackwater Worldwide. Sounds interesting. Obviously not a sure decision, nor one at the top of the list, however it is a venue I didnt consider before, and a lucrative one. Sunday, June 8, 20089:55AM - "In His Last Battle, A Hero Must Stand Alone."OMG, OMG, OMG, OMG, OMG!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Only 4 days til it comes out!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I have been in a constant state of geekasm for the last 2 weeks!!!!!!! Ladies i can totally sympathize with you in sex now. I am eagerly bouncing in anticipation over Metal Gear Solid 4 (aka- God in video Game form), and having beaten GTA4, I now have nothing to stand in my way. I will be glued to my television for as long as it takes to beat it, ignoring everything else, and i will need at least 2 weeks after i beat for all the time it will take in the fetal position sobbing and repeating "Its finally over!" (hopefully not "What does it all mean?") EEEEEEEEEEEEPPPPPPPP!!!!!! Solid Snake! I Wanna have your baby!!!! Current mood: Explody Wednesday, May 28, 20085:56PM - Hiyo!Hey guys, long time no update. Nothing much new going on here. Been having some minor headaches and memory problems since the accident, also some irritability resulting in major assholeness, but all in all good. Got some pics from the Wedding reception, thought id post em since everybody was yelling at me for them shortly after the wedding. Tuesday, April 29, 200811:56PM - My TestimonialSo heres what happened. Current mood:  sadThursday, April 24, 20088:02PM - Death is a scary thingI came closer to death last night than ever before in my life. Ill update again in a bit about it. got another debriefing to go to. Monday, March 31, 20088:50AM - Still alive.well, im still around, but damnit, this deployment is taking too long to end. Ive been constantly busy, running tons of missions, and it still only adds up to days. Im so tired of the army. I cant wait to be out. I cant wait to have a normal job and a normal life again. Current mood: contentFriday, February 29, 20086:08PM - Married = SlaveWell, Sarah and I got married yesterday. it was nice and small yet destroyed my nerves. Was nervous as hell. Right now were chilling in Joplin, MO right now and heading back to Oklahoma in a few hours. I dont know if im gonna have the money to fly back to Oregon while im back but we'll see. I got my cell phone working again so call me. If you dont remember my number its 503-756-0529. Current mood: goodMonday, January 28, 20081:03AM - Still AliveAlright, alright. Im still alive, sheesh. So certain people, you know who you are, can stop worrying and flooding my email/myspace with tears of fear. I am in fact still here, with no small amount of luck, mind you. Been super busy doing super dangerous thingys. Part of why i havent updated lately is the loss of three of my buddies on an operation we were on. We were air assaulting in when my bird started taking fire. Their bird landed so that they could attack the guys shooting at us. When they got on the ground they were ambushed. My bird dropped myself and several others off about a kilometer away. We ran the whole way to their position to support them. When i arrived, two were dead already and one really close. Saturday, December 29, 20072:31PM - Celebration Bitches!hi all, long time no update. Things are alright here. Could be better, but could be worse. Its been a month since my buddies got killed, but im actually over it for the most part. Im excited, ill be back in the states on R&R in a month. Be getting married soon and were already house shopping. Not much else here new. Iraq is the same old garbage dump it was last time i was here. im gonna try to stop by Oregon for a few days while im back, so hit me up if you wanna chill. Friday, November 2, 20071:12AM - Soldier InterruptedSo here i am...in a mental hospital in Balad. Living in a prison would be kinder. At least there no one puts on a fake face of caring and interest. Their talking about pulling me off combat operations, when thats when i feel most alive. I feel more at home on the streets of iraq, than i do in the safety of our base.
