About Me

Let's see where do I begin? I am from the little town of Scituate, RI I have lived here for over 20 years and I love it here but it is a big world. I graduated from Scituate High in 1999 I was class president, homecoming king, voted most respected I played baseball, soccer, basketball, and I tried volleyball for a year. I didn't make any team because I was talented it was because of my work ethic. After high school I went on to study criminal justice at Johnson & Wales but enlisted in the United States Marine Corp before I got my degree. I spent almost two years in Iraq. I loved the Marine Corp and the friends I made while there. Presently I am trying to pursue a career in law enforcement. It is such a competitive and frustrating field. My family and friends mean the world to me. When a friend or family member calls and is in need of help or needs an ear to talk to I drop everything and go running to them. I tend to hold my feelings in because I don't really like to bother people with my problems. I had or I thought that I found true love but I was totally wrong. Usually I have good hunches about people but with this one I was wrong. I still love the girl with all of my heart and probably will always love her or at least until the next one sweeps me off of my feet. Ok enough about me..nametext, .whitetext12, .lightbluetext8, .or

Heroes:

I was making a difference in the world, in the lives of every American, in the lives of every human, whether or not you believed in the occupation and Bush’s reasoning behind going to war. I was doing what I wanted to do and I loved my job. I loved everything about it. I went off to war. Naturally afraid of the unexpected but ready to accept it. Naturally afraid of death, but ready to accept it, Naturally afraid of leaving everything I have ever known , but ready to accept it, Naturally afraid of never coming back to the American way of life, but ready to accept it. While I was there and when I was given the opportunity to call a place I called home, you were on the other side of the world crying and telling me to hurry home and get home safe and I love you. While I was there and when I was given the chance to call a place I thought was home you were on the other side of the world saying you were worried about me and you missed me and you could not wait to see me so hurry home and get home safe. While I was away on foreign soil fighting a war, fighting for something that I was proud of, proud of the fact that I was making a difference. I loved my job being a United States Marine. During my second deployment I heard all of the same lies, hurry home and we all love and miss you, As that deployment came to a near so did my time in the Corp, I mentioned re-enlistment to you because I loved my job and I loved wearing the uniform of a United States Marine you told me no, come home, we love you, you have done your duty. Hearing your cries and knowing about your stress I hesitantly decided to pursue other options and careers. Unfortunately I did not re-up on a dream job. Now that I am home I kick myself in the ass everyday for taking your feelings into consideration. I kick myself in the ass every day for not listening to my heart and fight for your freedom and the freedom of my nieces and nephew, I kick myself in the ass everyday because I wish I were to the right or to the left of my fellow Marine’s who are in Iraq fighting for our freedom. While being home I feel as if I have just burdened your life with my presence, I feel as if I am not wanted around here and there is no place for mein your life, you have hardly talked to me since being home, all you do on a daily basis is bitch about everything and how bad everything is. All I can say to you is to put yourself in the shoes of a soldier or Marine, better yet put yourself in the shoes of an Iraqi citizen the tell yourself how bad you have it. Receiving the Eagle, Globe, and Anchor was the best feeling I ever felt in my life. I could feel the Marine Corps being tattooed on my soul forever. It’s worth every ounce of blood, sweat, and tears you put into it. It’s a pride you can’t buy and one you become addicted to. You have to earn it. I am sorry for burdening your life with my return. I am going to go back to doing something I believe in soon enough and I will not interrupt the pattern of your every-day life anymore. Sorry for being an inconvience , sorry for being your son.
