Your birthday was almost two weeks ago, why are you bringing it up now. I did not forget we talked about during that whole talk about New Years. I just didn't want to call and then get the whole, "hey, can I call you back later" response. Either way Happy Birthday and sorry I wasn't there, I promise I will wish you a happy birthday until I can wish no more. :)
Just found out like two days ago that Mom is sending me to Europe this summer before I leave for the Navy. It's freakin' awesome and my uncle asked me to go the the dunes this summer also. It's going to be weird not being around everyone, this is all really surreal, but that's what "Leave" is for. It is still hard to believe back in ninth grade I would not have been able to imagine all the things that have happened to me, both good and bad. I always wanted a life in the military ever since I was eleven years old, but then I wanted a "keg cooler" but we all know how that one worked out so now I am back to the military life. I have a feeling this is going to be a great opportunity for me and hopefully I can set a good example for my brother, he's one of the main reason I wanted to do this. I want him to look up to his older brother with pride, I don't want him to fall to the temptations of mediocrity. I know this all sounds sappy and dumb but it is true, I'm not claiming that what I have done or am doing is a great feat, I just want him to surpass me in his achievements. These are just the ramblings of a crazy man, most of these sentences aren't even formatted correctly and who knows how many words I've misspelled. I'm ending this now with a simple:
