My Future is Calling...And it's Ringtone is Britney Spears...
So, I received a phone call from my boyfriend while at work last night and came to the sudden realization that time is flying. What once seemed like an eternity is suddenly speeding towards me at an alarming rate. In about 2 months, my life is changing huge. Koa called to tell me that he and Ikona were at the Hilton in Albequerque, on their way to Arizona. For those of you who don't know, Koa is my boyfriend and Ikona is our chihuahua. He will be in Arizona today...presumably sleeping in our apartment tonight...well, maybe not since it is without furniture. But then I thought about it...he got this dog for US...this apartment for US...that's us in capital letters...not as in United States. Okay, stay with me here...what I'm saying is that I'm about to be so domesticated, it's sick. Let me clear things up though, this makes me very happy! I have some fears, but they are just silly worries...I am just so happy and also SO in disbelief that I'm actually leaving Michigan again...and this time it's to be with a guy. Not only that of course, I had planned on joining the Army again anyways, before I even met Koa, but I altered my destination and I'm not feeling any doubt. I think that I can finally be happy and that's amazing. We have a lot of differences...but we fit well together. I worry because he's very superficial...I'm not talking bad...I have told him this and he agreed. I worry that living together, he's gonna see me at my worst and that he may not always like what he sees. OMG...run-on paragraph FMLAB! Let me fix this.
There, that's better! Anyways, who knew that I could find happiness so randomly. I never wanted to date a military guy again...not after crazy Patrick...but there was something about Koa that I couldn't resist. I am just REALLY happy and I can't believe that in 2 months, it'll all be real! I'll be there every night and waking up every morning to that same, beautiful face that I stare at when I feel lonely here. I lucked out to find someone so amazing and I am glad that I don't have to let go. Instead, I prepare to embrace harder...embrace on this journey. We know a lot about each other...if distance does anything, it makes us talk quite a bit...but I have also purposely avoided topics so that there will be things to talk about once we're together. I want to know more about his past...his adoption, his childhood, his family...those sorts of things. I can say that love is so much better when you really know someone and take risks to find true love. I have a backup plan anyways...if for some reason we don't work out and I don't wanna pursue the military as a career...I will finish my contract and head on over to Nashville to live w/Rachel. For now though, I await eagerly as my future quickly transfers into my present. :D
