Things I've learned so far...

Things that I have learned so far...
1: Everyone in Hawaii that is a caregiver of any sort is either Auntie or Uncle
2: If a word in Hawaii starts with the letter V, it is pronounced like a V. If the V is in the middle of a word it is pronounced like a W.
3: There are only 7 consanants used in the Hawaiian language.
4: Hawaiian's hate the military and whities
5: Ditty Mo is my favorite saying that I learned here...It means "ball out" pretty much! :)
6: Being married to Cameron is amazing! :)
7: Having a puppy is much harder than anyone could ever think...
8: The Marine Corps wants you to do everything for them in a timely manner while all they do is make you wait...
9: In order to make friends in a new place you have to open yourself up no matter how hard it is.
10: There are some people who tell you that they love you (friendship wise) but they never really meant it.
11: Who my true friends are; distance tells all my friends.
12: That having to pay bills really sucks and is very stressful.
13: I should have finished school when given the opportunity because now I can't afford it.
14: A new car is wonderful until you have to pay for it for 6 years. Uck.
15: Finding a job in a new place when you're involved with the military is very hard to do because they are tired of hiring people for short periods of time.
16: The Marine Corps messes up pay left and right and you're lucky if it has never happened to you.
17: The health insurance through the military could NOT be better! :)
18: How to stay in a home alone with no one there to keep me company.
19: How to be content with myself and how to be happy with myself.
20: That being away from all my family and friends is really hard but has taught me a lot in life. :)
