Latest Plans

K, well the whole getting healthy thing is going extremely well. I am actually losing some weight. Hopefully I will have to buy a new wardrobe for this summer. Of course I exercise everyday for the Military. But I don't eat out anymore. If I do then it's once every two weeks. I went shopping for food bout a week ago. Bought celery, baby carrots, apples, bananas, blueberries, ham, roastbeef, bread, milk, V8 juice, well along those lines. I wouldn't let myself buy snacks like chocolate or anything unhealthy. Even the mayo is fat free! I never thought I would buy fat free Mayo! But I usually have either a bowl of cereal or oatmeal for breakfast, sandwich for lunch and dinner. I will snack on the veggies. YUM!! I actually don't mind.
Well my newest plans are to go to Hawaii. If I can get pin point orders to a specific Unit, then I will re-enlist for three years. If not then I will get out of the Military and go work in Hawaii in 9 months. I should find out everything by the end of next week.
Mel, I got my check, FINALLY!!

Fashion

Well I am sitting on a bench in a small field where we form up at. The sun is shinning, birds chirping and I am waiting on formation to start. There is a brick building to my right and I notice a young woman walking to the entrance of that building. She was wearing her brown hair in a ponytail, with a "bump" on the top of her head. Had on a vertical striped white and blue long sleeve shirt, blue "skinny" jeans and flat bright blue shoes on. Oh yeah she had on the brown bug eyed glasses. I then started to think, "What happened to being your own person?" I must have seen that same girl EVERYWHERE! It's bad enough that they are mixing the 80s style into today's, but now they all have to look a like? COME ON! The other day I was going to Sears and saw another girl with skinny, STONEWASHED jeans! What is going on? I just don't like the new fashion era coming to us. Maybe it has been this way for a while and I just missed the start of it. At the mall last week, a couple of girls walked by in that same fashion, I had to look twice, I thought they were twins. Nope! The thing that caught my attention was, they had bright pink and green high tops on. I use to wear those, but I was 11. They were the coolest thing back then. Mine were white with some pink in them and has two laces per shoe. I like the skinny jeans if they are worn with knee or calf high boots, but flat shoes or high tops don't look to good. Well that's my opinion.

Livin' Life!!

O.K., I am now back in Arizona, FINALLY!! I am slowly but surly bettering myself, which was the first thing on my list of things to do when I got back from the "Sand Box". Started with my physical self. First my hair, ouch!! Dying it one too many times, so now it is fried. So I have to wait for it to heal so I can get it to the color I want it to be. Then last week I went in for a dental cleaning, double ouch!! I am sitting in the chair and the dentist starts to put the scraper, poker in my mouth. She completely misses my mouth and stabs my bottom lip! I knew I hated the dentist for some reason. She seemed to be going to war with my teeth and gums. Then about half way through, she started singing along with the radio. She started to calm down then. Of course throughout the cleaning I am gagging on the ICE COLD water that is spraying on my sensitive teeth. I couldn't wait for it to be over. Then when I thought the worst was yet to come, she held up a mirror and showed me my freshly cleaned teeth. I was shocked! And excited at the same time. I didn't realize how bad they were. No more stains. :) Now I am being more careful on what I eat. The next thing I did was mad an appointment for a facial. I was having a hard time cleaning "Iraq" out of my pores. That was awesome!!! I never felt anything so good. Think I am going to have to go back and get a back massage or something. I have another appointment on the 16th. The good thing is, my face is starting to clear up and the pores are getting smaller. She told me to just keep washing and make sure to use a toner with no alcohol in it. Neutrogena works wonders. Use it for my face wash and toner. Don't have to use much lotion for my face. Just my nose. Also I started working out again. Bought an ab ball along with a sit up thing that screws on the bottom of your door and holds your feet. Learning self-defense too! And went to Walmart to pick up some vitamins. B12 and Calcium. Just have to find the iron ones and folic acid. On the 21st I will talk to my Doc about the smoking sensation class. They will give me some pills that will help me quit smoking. Then on the first of June I will start going to school for the next six months, full time! Oh yeah, I got promoted to SGT on the 1st of April.
