My cousin Tremaine was sweet and funny, smart, one of the few quiet people in my family. I didn't get to see him much recently; he was in the army. He wasn't at my grandmother's funeral, so the last time I saw him was at his wedding about five or six months ago. It was a low-key affair at the last minute at my aunt Ethel's house. I was tapped ( Read more... )

So, my mood has started to definitely pick up. I think that sometimes I just walk a very fine line and I don't always do such a bad job of it, but every now and then it all just gets to be too much.

Gosh, 24 seems so... I don't want to say old but I'm going to have to go with old anyway because I feel old. So, old. No offense if you're older than me but I just don't think I'm going to care for 24 too much.

Okay so I finally get a span of time to myself and I spend an HOUR typing this fucking post and it fucking gets eaten. EATEN!

FUCK!

Hey guys! Not that anyone's had chance to miss me yet since I'e only been gone five days, it feels like I've been here longer. Training is so unbelievably hard and while I'm hanging in there okay, it's still really hard to see the people who don't make it go home. Today, our class of 29 lost 7 people to the exams, despite my best efforts. It's ( Read more... )

I got my call today as I was about to go on shift at the flick house. Apparently, I need to be ready to go by Thursday night/Friday morning, so I have the week to pack my bags and go get a passport (yeah, I know it takes longer than a week to get a passport but I just need to apply before I go so they can reimburse me). All this, while still ( Read more... )
