island report

I'm well into my second week now on this island paradise.. and it's really too bad that I'm here and soo close to vacation-land but can't really bask in any of its glory.. some freinds and co-workers have partook on some of the scuba activities but due to my dislike of water, fish, coral, sharks, and overall fun in the salty and sunny ocean, I relunctantly passed. And instead decided to work instead and spend time in my room watching internet video's, reading manga, and money saving books. I think I may eventually venture out to the mall and see if I cant find the (supposed) anime store that's there. Speaking of witch, I'm always called anime stores, or places that sell things from the otaku genre, anime stores. But wouldn't they have a different name then that? (technically speaking of course). Maybe they could just fall under the catagory or Japanese/ Asian Subculture-(or maybe Hobby) Shops? I dont know. That just popped in my mind for some reason. Mostly because if I go there and find said store, i will in fact not really be looking for 'anime' so-to-speak, but rather anime related items.. such as Figures, Toys, Posters, etc, etc.

I guess since I dont like much in the way of sports and such, I could always take on some golfing activity, cuz I have been known to try that, and have liked it in the past.. and there is a course literally about 200 ft from me. I may try that later this week, I'll take some pics if I do.. good thing I brought a collared shirt,, hahaha.

Well more to come I'm sure.. in the meantime, here's the pics I've taken soo far.

Guam

Well I've been here on this island for a few days now.. had to suffer a little bit at first with a bad sinus thing that was causing some massive migrain headaches, but am better now. I'm somewhat restricted to the place that I'm working at for now, but will eventually venture out as soon as I'm capable.. I'm pretty sure there is an Anime store somewhere on the island and my goal is to find that. Another thing I want to find is the micro-brewery that has a live jam band that plays there.. cuz that would rock to try a few types of locally brewed beverages while listening to some music in the style of Phish or the Dead.. of course during the times I'm located those places I'm sure I'll try and hit up some historical landmarks as well and take lots of pictures. Soon as I can do that, I'll be sure to share some here. Till than it's just work work and more work, but hey, that's what I'm here for. This is no vacation after all, and would be totally unfair to have too much fun here without my family.
