how much does a pound of anxiety weigh?

I went to most likely my last Marine Corps Ball last night... and drank like a 21 y/o LCpl again.. lol
during the ceremony, my eyes may have gotten a little misty... the pride and tradition will forever mean the world to me..
you can look around to the dates of most the Marines and watch them sway, look around, mess with their hair, and not pay attention.. but you look at every squared away Marine in their dress blues... standing at complete attention, not moving a muscle.. respect and honor for what we stand for... it was pretty nice to be there again..

an for the rest of the night.. double jack an coke's took away most my memory ... but what I do remember is that Lynnie started the dance floor :) and it was amazing...

but what I did realize is that I am happy to be out. and that this chapter ... this part of my life... this prideful part of my life... its okay to be over with... its okay.. and I'm okay with it being done.


I'm gunna do big things in life... and thats how they get accomplished... you have to close chapters in order to start new ones...



I went home to Michigan for the 1st time in 2 years a few weeks ago.. and I had a blast... so so many people that mean so much to me..asked all the time when i was moving back to kalamazoo..
unfortunately, thats just not in the stars for me...
you cant do big things when u are in a stagnant lull and i feel like kalamazoo has me in a lull... a lot of memories that I am happy to have forgotten...

why cant we have our cake an eat it too? like-- a BIG ICE CREAM cake... mmMMmMmmm nom nom nom.... ice cream cake.....

my college qtr is almost done... i can't wait.. cuz this 0700 to 2200 everyday sched is kicking my ass...
