| This was actually for when the day I got out the army butttttttt........I was lazy but here is my last blog for Xanga. Meant for May 10 2008. Goodbye.....
Cruising down the long winding road of life with my life packed in the trunk.
As the sunset beam and glisten my eyes providing a ray of hope and ambition. It's times likes these I cherish
and times like these i'm a wreck. Teardrops of sadness falls down my eyes with a hint of promise. Trails of laughters, trails of tears, trail of happiness, trail of peers. Drunken nights remembered more than sober ones. Everyone is brothers no matter where we from. Sent to a different country with a gun. Every night we prayed to all come back in one. To see the happiness from our family and friends. Time past but time will forever stand still behind a glass. "We must remember tomorrow will come after the dark so you will always be forever in my heart....with unconditional love" Cruising down the long winding road of life looking back at my rearview and only seeing a trail of made memories. It's times likes these I cherish and times like these i'm a wreck.
This was meant for when I was driving back from North Carolina to Wisconsin reflecting on the last for 4 years of my life. Good Riddance, Good Bye, Good Times.....
Peace out Xanga!!! | | |
| Hello 2008 and goodbye 2007. Good riddance. Since 07 was the worst year ever, 08 is going to be the best. Three more months until we go home. Oh yea, I think we were on CNN last night. | | |
| After two weeks of emergency leave for my grandmother's funeral, I am back in Iraq again. With only four months left, I am ready to get back to work and get this year and what's left of this 15 month deployment tour over with. My goal right now is to get home safe so I can see my family and friends again. I am so focused right now. | | |
| My whole deployment was going fine until this happened. Now I don't even know what to do but to reminisce about you and my early childhood of when you raised us. I remember when I was little when I disobeyed you, you would chase me around the house with a stick or when you would wake up early and fix us breakfast and waited for us until we left for school. I remember everything you taught me back then to this very day. When I was little I never would of thought that when I grow older you would mean so much to me. I never knew what discipline was until you taught me it. I never knew what it means to be loved until you loved me. I never knew how much we take things for granted until one day it leaves us. Nov 1 2007 the day you left us. Out of this cruel world and somewhere better I hope. You taught me how important education and family is and I've taken that to the heart because everything I do is always family first then friends. I know there was a 6 year gap where I haven't seen you physically and I'm glad I closed that gap 3 years ago. When I saw you in 2004 for the first time since 1998 you were still beautiful as I remember and your personality still radiates a dark room. The last time I saw you was a year ago during xmas 06 and you weren't doing so good. You said you were fine because you didn't want me to worry but I know you were very sick. All through out this year you were fighting like a soldier but you never gave up. You taught me to never give up. Before you passed, you went down swinging to the very end. I wish I could be there for your funeral but it's complicated. I'm trying the best I can but I probably won't be able to make it to your funeral. I'm sorry and I hope you forgive me becuase it's killing me inside knowing I can't be there to say goodbye to you one last time. There's alot of things I wanted to say to you but I know I'll never be able to anymore because your gone but out of everything I wish I could say, this is want I wanted to say the most; I love you and I miss you. From now on, everything I do I'll do it for you and make you proud of your grandson. I know your looking down at us now smiling knowing you raised 5 very good grandkids. I wouldn't be the person I am today if it wasn't for you and I love the person I am today.
R.I.P. I love you Grandma

| I swear no one is on xanga now a days. I need a life but it's okay 'cause I can't have much of a "life" here in good ol' iraq woohoo. yea right. I've realized something startling though....I'll be almost 2 frickin' 3 by the time I get out the army. I swear it seemed like it was just yesterday that I was just 18. Time flies really fast....too fast that I can barely hold on. Why can't time fly while I'm in Iraq? Haha funny thing is I'll probably say time flew in Iraq once my tour here is over. Woohoo 8 more fuckin months....shit. Take care ya'll. | | |
