Sondra is going to Iraq!
| Thu, 08-05-2004 - 6:41pm |
I just have one thing on my mind... I am going to Iraq in a few weeks. I have accepted a position within KBR(Halliburton) in their human resource department that is located in Iraq. I have to fly down to Houston, they wanted me this Monday, but I have to much to do before then, so they allowed me to fly their on Aug. 16. From Houston, I will be flown into Iraq. This is something that I thought about long and hard, but I feel I have made the right decision for me.
Anyway, for some reason I just thought I should tell everyone. While I am scared, I am more thrilled and excited to worry about the risks. Wish me luck!!

My goodness! This is certainly a shock!
From what little I know of your background, it sounds like you will be a valuable asset to Iraq, and we all know how desperately they need every asset they can muster.

Once again Wish you the best of luck...

They cant tell me where I will be in Iraq, but they did tell me my camp name. So I emailed my freind, Eve, so she can tell me if that is where she is and if not if she knows anythng about it. She emailed me last week a picture of her and Colin Powell. Obviously no one is allowed to leave the camp, so basically nothing but work. They have areas set up for fun, internet cafes, pools, bars, etc. but only the internet cafe appeal to me.
Hahaha, so I wont be that far away. I am trying to set up my website now, so it is easier for my friends and family to contact instead of emailing everyone....
Sondra!
This is great!
