Big steps =)

So yesterday i went to Fort Drum to "check in" cause thats where i'll be stationed. Its HUGE up there. My recruiter and I spent an hour getting lost.. fun right? nope. So i got fitted for my acu's. and also my dress greens. Now i just need my head fitted for a hat.  I felt so out of place being a new soldier without a uniform. Everywhere i went i saw soldiers and then family of soldiers who are on active duty.

Thats what brings me to my next topic. I have recently swayed Derek to join the Army with me. Recently as in today lmao =). Hes going to be doing active duty, and i am Reserve. So the plan is, that were getting married this summer. So far we only have the date set which is July 20th. =).  My plans are to save up from my summer job and get my dress, our license, and my family will help with wedding bands. Yes, some of you are like "get married out of high school? are you FUCKING NUTS!?>.<"  The answers yes. like i said in an earlier post. I do honestly love Derek, and hes someone that i share alot in common with so my question to you is why not?

Once we are married, i will be stationed with him, so we both will do alot of traveling, and then once we get out, we'll be able to get a house and get remarried. Yes yes sounds that easy in words right? well... its not, but were both willing to put up with each others shit all the time, i mean we live together, we dont get a break from each other except in school. So joining the Army will give us that distance time we need, and we will still be together.. make sense?... good =).

Im definietly stoaked to be in the Army Reserve. I have a wonderful future ahead of me, and i get to do what i love doing, which is playing with guns. I live by routine, and take direction very well, so i think i'll do very well in the Army. =D
