Its Monday morning... the last week flew. I had my boss and some other guys from the U.S. here last week. I was with them all week and it was refreshing!!! Really nice to be around guys with the same thinking. But this week they are gone and I am back to being the lone American in the office. But its ok. Still it was nice to have some guys understand for real what I am feeling here. Its tough but has been interesting so far and I think I have learned a lot. But I have never worked in such a tense and stressful atmosphere in my life. So in many ways I am wanting my old life back. But that will come I know. So I am just trying to focus on the current situation.

I have been watching the world track and field championships in Osaka the past week. Very exciting and its really amazing to see what some of these people can do. So that was last week. This week is the US Open. I got the wow wow channel to watch the us open. But really disappointed!!! Only a couple hours of coverage every night. But starts at midnight and not all the matches are shown. I thought there would be more. So I find myself on the internet trying to get all the news. I wish I could find a way to watch online. I will just have to keep looking.
