(no subject)
Ah hello all. I'm on duty right now, which isn't so bad because I get some time to myself and I get to use the internet without a wait. It is super slow, but it's better than nothing. Wish I could get to a phone though.
Things are going well here. It's been nearly a month since I got on that bus and headed off to this foreign land, and I've already seen so much, and gotten much more than I bargained for. I miss all my friends and family and Kristen<3 so much. That's probably the hardest thing, and then they're saying we might be coming out again in August. If that is so, that means I'll be getting 4 months of rest, then heading out to the sandbox once more. Not a good time man. I guess I'll cross that bridge when it comes.
I have a few days off in the BAS right now, and thank goodness. I've been out in the country alot lately. I'm gaining alot of medical knowledge I didn't have before so that makes me happy, and I think when I get out I'm going to try and get a job at the airport as an EMT on a crash crew. It seems like it'd be really chill because, think about it, how often is their a plane crash? I figure I can do that, won't have to live at home, and can go to school. I guess we'll play it out.
Ah, I want do so much. I want to teach, walk the Appalacian Trail, live in Ireland or New York or Boston for a couple of years, you know, make my life full. Part of me still wants to serve a mission, and I would find it hard to justify to myself doing any of the above and not serve my mission...But I'm extraordinarily hesitant to go that route. However, I am finally rebuilding my relationship with Jesus Christ. You see, it's always been my rock, even when I haven't held onto it. Now, I don't have much else. I have my boys, my family, Kristen, and my God. I need to stay true to all of those. I talked to my bishop, and I'm clearing things up. I'm finally becoming the man my parents raised me to be and the man that God wants me to be, and it feels pretty terrific. I miss everyone and love them so much, please stay safe
