Good morning am Maria, just want to say Hi to everyone, wish you have a great Valetine day and the 2008

Am Vietnamese natural born, came to US in early 75, worked with DCASR Los Angeles since 1988, transfer to Atlanta, GA with Army. I worked with Gov't for 20 yrs. 2005 first time I sit on the other side of the table Commercial Contractor KBR Logcap III, Iraq. Am trying to seeking for CA position from another Company, any advice or info will be greatly appreciated.

Iraq is not bad as people have said. I always believe if I can come to US when I was 15 and grown up there, survice thru all these yrs, I can survice any where. Middle East is one of the worst place to live, but look at the positive way, don't matter where you at, make it home, make it confortable must as possible, don't ask for more then you can handle.

1) Work
2) Have a good meal
3) Sleep

Mainly, get some exercise, some good movies DVD, write Poem, do something keep yourself occuppy, don't wondering around BARs, places that could get yourself into lot of trouble. Don't forget your purpose (why you take that job to go oversea), then you can make it just fine.
