Testing, testing...

Here's the deal, folks. As most, if not all, of you know, I somehow snagged an internship through the gov. at a base near Atsugi, which, in turn, is near Tokyo. I will be working on a base library for three months on several projects.
This blog has been created to keep you all on top of what I am doing in Japanland. As such, it will be about my about my internship and how I am navigating the scary world of military life. Chances are, it will quickly devolve into talking about good things I ate and places I want to go, but we can pretend that it will be all professional anyway.

Here are some quick to-date factors (I will catch you up on the official process later):
-Everything I know about the military comes from stories from my AF girl cousin, TV, and books. It confuses me, so this will be fun.
-I have never actually worked in a library before...huh.
-Being by Tokyo, the base I will be living on is also close to my old home of 生田 (Ikuta), 5 Ships Women's Dormitory and Golf Studio, a giraffe river water measure (see below), one elementary school, one middle school, and the OK Supaa Supermarket.
-I really don't speak as much Japanese as you think I do. Seriously.
