I seriously need to remember to update this thing more.
My friends have been goen for about a week now. And everything is so much more boring since they have been gone. No one can understand. Its just not as fun without them here. Its really crazy. But, I have talked to them since they have been gone. Things suck from what they say. I'm so glad I didn't have to go. But, they are thinking of sending me in Feb. I'm still kind of undecided about it all. They said they got hit by mortar rounds the first day they landed. But it was on the other side of base. So, no worries there. And they are constantly hearing machine gun fire. But, I know they'll all be okay. I have faith.
Sara didn't get to come in last weekend. Very sad, but I got over it. And she's coming this weekend. And its going to be awesome. She's such a sweetheart. And I'm very lucky. We still don't know what we're going to do for Valentine's Day. But, we'll figure all that out when she gets here. I do need to get her a present though. But, I'm so bad at buying things for people. I just can't wait. She gets here on Friday. Just a few more days til I can hold her.
I'm starting to worry about my friend, Roy, who is in the Marines. And he is stationed in Okinawa, Japan. He is getting extremely reckless with everything he is doing. He is spending money like crazy and his mom has had to bail him out several times. He needs to watch his steps. Things are worse over there. And I don't want to see anything bad happen to him. Granted, it is his first time overseas. And everyone goes crazy their first time. I know I did. But, theres a point where you have to slow down and recognize what you're doing. And, he's not looking at the big picture. I just worry about him.
And, come to find out, my teachers son died two weeks ago. No one even wanted to tell me. They didn't want me to worry. And then they told me not to tell Roy because it could make his overseas situation worse. I can't keep something like that from him. I don't know what I'm going to do about that.
