This is the first time I've wanted to write since I got back from the dreaded bootcamp. I think I've been avoiding the whole situation. I serioulsy have only spoken to a few people...and that's because they have called me. Or text. Or whatever. I'm happy I'm back but there's a whole lot of other emotions that go along with that. I wish everything would have worked out but it didn't and I'm learning to cope with that. I made some friends. A lot of girls from New York...who knew I'd get along with the city girls? lol I have a reason to go to NY now. FREAKING YES.
Basic was everything I expected. Wish I could have experienced more. But now I'm home and I start school tomorrow. I have no idea how I managed to get enrolled in less than a week in a totally different state. But I did. Rick also gave me his GI Bill. He gave me a future basically. In case some of you don't know, the GI Bill not only pays 100% of my tuition, but it also pays for my books/supplies and I get a monthly housing allowance. So right now I'm going to some community college. Only until January though. Then I should be at IU. And I am so stoked. It's one of the best schools for my major. Plus, it's in Bloomington where the average age is 25.
Everything just kind of sucks right now. I know it will get better but I've never really been known for my outstanding patience. lol I want everything to be better NOW. I want a car. I want my stuff in my FL storage unit to be here. I want my monthly stipend to come so I have money. I want to know some people and make friends( may require a car...ugh.). I want to have a normal 21st Birthday complete with friends and lots of alcohol.
I've always known my life attracts drama but after everything all I can think is that I am the luckiest bitch. EVER. The weirdest, shittiest, most random situations ALWAYS happen to me and some how I ALWAYS luck out. So in a way, I'm unlucky because all this shit happens to me. But I always luck out in some way. Compared to other people. In my eyes, I'm luckier than the average person. I've just experienced some retarded shit and I always get something good in return. Cool.
I need to go to bed. It's past 11. Which is late to me now. Jeez. Here's the plus, I wake up early. Can anyone say Early Bird's Special? No? How about " The early bird catches the worm"? Probably not...Insert two paragraphs up...
Inglourious Basterds was the highlight of my life, Haley
