About Me

i am at my Temp. Duty station in Pensacola, FL at NAS for Aviation School. it fuckin sucks here but it is kinda nice out. it was fucking cold as shit in Combat School. I will be in FL for a while so if you are ever in the area please let me know and i would love to chill wit youall.-
.. i graduated from Parris Island,SC on November 21st, 2007. Also for you Civilans Marine Corps Boot Camp. I am a new person. I changed. Everything bout me is different. I am quite happy with myself. I look at everything in a new way. I never thought that i'd graduate from parris island. i was in complete shock that i graduated. it took me 9 months but i did it. i feel as if i can do anything. it's quite amazing. i ran for 1 hour and 1/2 the 1st day that i was home. i was in shock. i could not beleive it. the marine's changed my life.. it can change yours.
I was born on September 11th. It is a day that no one will ever forget. That year that it happened my life changed. I love the Military and everyone that is in it. Everyday they fight for our freedom. I dont many ppl who do that. They are willing to fight to keep you free. THey are willing to jump in front of a Bullit to keep you and your family safe. DO YOU HAVE THAT INSENTIVE? WOULD YOU DO IT? Have you even said thank you to one of them? IF you haven't you are a worthless piece of SHIT!
My life is an up and down kind of life.. I enlisted into the Marines this past September '06. I am still in shock that i did that. But then again I am not surprised. I am really glad that I did. I have a few friends here and there. Most of them are in the Military. That does not matter to me. I am just glad to have friends. I was raised in a small town that has now grown into a really big town. I am cool wit that. I miss home. I am a family girl and i love to be around friends all the time. I wish that i was a lot closer to my friends and family. I don't have any grandparents. When i moved here to Delaware i never noticed how close everyone was to one another. ITs a little strange. but that is LSD (lower slower Delaware) for ya.. everyone is related to you no matter how you look at it
you need to understand that this is an area where nothing goes on. Delaware is a Redneck capital of the world.. you either hunt, fish, live on a farm or use ducktape on everything.
if you wanna get to know me let me know~! Mo~

My Interests

Their are a lot of things that interist me. Such as Military life. Their is something about the military that keeps me going. I love to ride horses. I am currently in a internship up by delaware park and I train race horses. I love it so much. I am so glad that i got into it. I love playing paintball, I think that it is so much fun and i am so glad that i got into it. I sometimes drive up to Milford and i play with a friend of mine that has his own paintball field. It is so insane!

I'd like to meet:

........

I think that the person that i would like to meet is my grandfather. He was one hell of a soldier. I wish that i could be like him... he was a piolt in the Marines way back when. I also can't wait to meet my new mommy.... (thats my future Drill Instructer, if you didn't know that lame'o). I would also like to talk and here the stories of the Men that fought in ww2 in the pacific. That would be so cool. So far i met only one... and it was one of the greatest experiances in my life. We all have our stories and they should all be told in some way or another......
The marines are my life and you need to understand that if you want to be a part of that.

Music:

I am an all music kind of person... i will listen to anything that comes on the raidio... all sorts of stuff... mostly Rap hip hop and Pop.. some rock some country and some oldies..
American Cities That Best Fit You:
70% Honolulu

70% Seattle

65% Austin

65% Denver

65% Portland Which American Cities Best Fit You?

Movies:

I think that the best movie of all time is Ladder 49. The reason is any movie that can make a girl cry is a movie to see.

Television:

I love the OC,the first few weeks of american idol(then it gets kind of dumb),24,CSI,and Rescue Me.

Books:

Any war book will do. it really does not matter to me.the one book that i am reading is about Chad Clifton and his Mom.. Terri Clifton. Chad was killed in Iraq in Febuary of 2005. It will be 3 years this febuary. his story is amazing. you should pick up the book.. it might be hard to find. but you will find out that it is hard to put down.. "a Random Soldier"

Heroes:

The real hero is SGT Jason Irwin the US Marine Corps. He is not only my Recruiter but he is my friend. He keeps me straight and out of trouble. He is the only person that I can talk to and sometimes will listen to what I got to say. Others just don't care what I do. Except the ones that are my real close friends....BWade, Kim, and Beca... SGT Irwin has had a huge part in my life... WIthout him I think that my life would be worthless.... cause right now I would be applying to all the Colleges when I can take care of all of that later. . But the real heros are the ones that are fighting for our Country in Iraq. They are The Men and Women of the United States Armed Forces..

You crawl into your soft bed, with down pillows, and get comfortable.
He tries to sleep but gets woken by mortars and helicopters all night long.
If you support your troops, the click "reply to poster" copy all the codes, and repost the bulliten.
If you don't support your troops well, then don't re-post. You won't die in 7 days, your love life won't be affected, and you won't have the worst day ever. You don't have to repost. It's not like you know the men and women that are dying to preserve your rights.
.. .. .. .. ..
who are we going to use to fight our battles? everyone at least knows one person that is fighting for our freedom in Iraq. Just take a second or 2 and remember all of our fallen troops. They do so much for us. What can you do for them?
