So I totally quit my job as a car salesman (Yeah, I know, don't ask..) on Friday and started my new job today.  It is basically what I did in Blackwell only none of the crappy stuff and all of the things I enjoy.  Can we say "Dream Job"?  To top it off today we ordered my work truck.  A nice 2007 Chevy Silvarado Ext. Cab Z71.  Plus a few other bells and whistles.  I will take a picture of it when it comes in.  I am stoked as all get out.  I basically set my own hours which will allow me to pick up more courses in the fall semester.

Ohh-yeah!  I forgot to mention I am going back to college.  I only have two classes right now.  Biology and Business Ethics.  So I should be able to almost pick up a full schedule in the fall semester.  I would take summer classes but the deployment to Iraq is going to ruin that.  I got out of the military and 6 months later (October to be exact) I reenlisted, mainly to cover my tuition for college.  Right now I am an English major, why, you ask?  Well I used to love to write.  And someone got me inspired to write again and so I started writing again, but then it all went back to shit.  A very long story, but not really so much so.  I like to pretend that it is a long story if only to give it some validity.  Lets just say that my life as always is a roller coaster with horrific ups and downs.  I miss the easy days.  And if you wonder what the easy days were, well truthfully it is probably the life your living right now if you are reading this.

I love the introspective that Xanga has always given me.  Just browsing through the latest 10 or so recent posters in my sub list I see that some people have stayed the same and some people are evolving before my eyes.  Ash is getting married, OMG, WTF! .  Eartha is having the time of her life in the states while still be a tad homesick.  And Kara, well Kara is worrying about trivial stuff while building up to a life so awesome that us, the mundane, will be jealous of even the boring things she does, don't sweat the small stuff babe, you have years ahead of you to do that.  Your way to young to worry about the things you worry about.  Enjoy life while you can.

And where does that leave little ole me?  At 25, soon to be 26 I have set very few goals in my life.  Don't get me wrong.  I have set an assload of goals, most of them unattainable.  But as of recent I have tried to set some goals that will help to define who I am over the next 5 years, some attainable, some rather far fetched but a good goal none the less.  And now I present to you my goal of things to do:

1. Graduate with a Bachelors degree.
2. Obtain my officers commission.
3. Finish my novel.
4. Figure out what love actually means to me.
5. Determine what I want to be doing 10 years from now.
6. Make the 7 the car I have always dreamed it would be.

6 simple goals for now, well at least 6 goals of what should be simple.

On that note I think I will call it a night and I truly appreciate every soul whom stops by, even if you don't take the time to say hello.

Hopefully I can get back into the swing of posting again and thus reconnect with some of my own friends on Xanga.

I love you guys!

Hey! I didn't even realize you were back! Last year I kept on checking your page every now and then, but gave up eventually, thinking you were "lost forever!" :)
Thanks for that little "shout out," ... You're right.. I AM having the time of my life here, but feeling homesick at the same time. You couldn't have summed me up better...
It looks like you've been a busy bee yourself! College, the military, 6 goals... wow.. you've got your work cut out for ya.. :) Have fun!

Glad to have you back. Don't be a stranger!
