I've come to the conclusion that I really haven't been myself lately. I've been tired, I've been stressed, and I've really been missing my old REAL life. I want to be able to give my mom a hug and go shopping with her ( Read more... )

I find it quite humorous how some people can swear up and down that something is unbelievably difficult and when I come to this impossible obstacle, it seems incredibly easy. It has been said that not many people are as "god-like" as I am, but the outside world of reality is definitely beginning to open my eyes up to a thousand different aspects ( Read more... )

I have only 17 more days until I see my mommy!! I am so excited. My 2 brothers are coming to see me graduate and life is going really well at the moment. I'm on the soccer team now which is different because I've never played any other sport but I'm sure I'll be fine. I always need to be playing some kind of sport or else I feel like 'blah'. It's a ( Read more... )

I took a ( Read more... )

I can't stand people who would purposely enter a stressful organization such as the army, and expect it to be easy and for people to just lay down everything for them because they feel a ( Read more... )

Okay. So, I finally got to go off post and San Antonio is magnificient. My parents bought me my ultra high-tech brand spankin new cell phone which is on its way as I type. I love it. I am so grateful for everything--the army has definitely taught me that. All of you reading this--you're lucky. I have rigourous PT every morning--about 430 AM mon-fri ( Read more... )
