long time
wow it's been a long time since i've taken the time to put something on here.
and i dont really know why i'm bothering
maybe somebody still reads this occasionally, hoping that i will start updating it again.
but i doubt it.
here i am, nearly midterm at USD. school is alright...i'm probably not studying as much as i should, but i've had a few tests and i've done pretty well...so maybe im one of those lucky ones who doesn't have to study hard. they always told me in high school that i could get away without studying then, but once i hit college, there would be no way. HAHA who's laughing NOW?!?!
ROTC is awesome. i mean, yeah it sucks. i don't get to have friday nights because i have to wake up at 6am on saturday mornings...i know i know, maybe you do too, but work isnt the same as drill. drill freakin wears you out. stand at attention in a thick, wool, hot uniform, with a 10-pound rifle spinning around your face and at least one person yelling at you to get it right. but i love doing this stuff. its always been my dream to be a Marine. now here I am. not very many people actually get to live out their dreams. im lucky.
wanna know another dream that is coming true? kristen. yep ive been dreaming about her since like my freshman year in high school. now she's mine! i love her to death and i am so thankful for her. she is so supportive, more so than any other girl could be in our situation. seriously, girls, would you stay with a guy who lived 100 miles away, was a Marine and therefore an arrogant asshole at times, and also since he was a Marine he would have to leave you for as long as a year, also has a part-time job that takes away the free time that he used to have to come up and visit you, plus has to get at least a 3.0 in his first semester of college, which hardly anybody does! he started college dirt poor and has $40,000 in student loans to pay back, and he's only making maybe $400 a month with his part-time job, and IF he gets the scholarship he'll start earning $300 a month extra. he isnt very good looking except when he's in his uniform, he isnt very buff but is working on it...just picture a guy who is not your dream guy. well. thats what Kris is putting up with. and i cannot have asked for a more dedicated girlfriend than that. even if i had...i dont think even God could have gotten me a more dedicated girlfriend.
and because of all that, i have a huge responsibility to give her the life she deserves. i guess i can start by encouraging her as much as she is encouraging me. stay by her side through her own busy life. she loves me enough to have me as a part of her life. i owe her mine.
goodnight.
