Officially, my handsome, wonderful, loving boyfriend is a solider! I can't even think of how to describe how incredibly proud of him I am! AND more good news, he will be home in 2 months!!! just in time for our 1 year (: In the mean time I'm practicing being a good student, and I have to say, doing this whole school thing correctly is a ridiculous amount of work! I have almost zero free time since I work too, which I have to say... HOW AWESOME IS THAT! Still the hardest part of every day, no matter how preoccupied I am, is when I fall asleep every night looking at that gorgeous boy in his camouflage, smiling, it's hard not to smile and think of him when I think of how happy he is and how he has already accomplished a dream.
I got a phone call yesterday from him, and more good news is that he gets his cell phone permanently when he moves to black phase which I believe will happen on Thursday. Geez I can't wait until then. 2.5 more months to get in shape and master my cooking skills as much as possible and save enough money to get a plane ticket to Missouri to see him graduate AND my goal for the semester is to get all A's. I think I can do it, staying motivated is going to be the key. If he can stay positive and motivated through basic training and his a-school then I can do college. So here goes. week 3 of classes and I'm stayin strong.
The Art of Staying Busy is a project I'm trying out to in fact, stay busy. My boyfriend of 7 months, and friend of 6 years joined the Army Reserve and while he is away training and enjoying the freezing winter months in Missouri I will be cozy and warm in my house here in Virginia, improving myself, trying new things, and staying busy so I don't "wallow" this entire 5 months he's gone. Wish me luck!

the christmas glow still hasn't left
where to begin... it's been quite a while since my last post so you lucky readers can enjoy this bit of writing thrown randomly together, apologies in advance to the jumpy-ness.
so how was my christmas you might ask?
well, factoring in that it is in fact CHRISTMAS the most jolly of times of the year + 2 weeks of vacation from work + no school + the fact that my handsome solider boyfriend came home for TWO WHOLE WEEKS + presents + fattening foods + snow... i have to admit it was the best christmas vacation of my entire 20 years of living. in all honesty it's going to be hard to top, and if in my hopefully long life it can't be changed, i am perfectly happy with that.
i dont even know where to start. i know i didnt sleep at all the night before he came home, we were both so excited i think we texted/ called each other atleast 5 times an hour. i was downstairs, with the tv on as background noise, looking at the twinkle lights on the christmas tree, cuddling with my dogs thinking to myself how wishes do come true. yes yes incredibly cheesy i know but my dearest reader if you could only feel my feelings for christopher james gefell you would understand. so the next day i busy myself along, waiting, anticipation and nervousness building to see him, what if he doesnt like me anymore, and then at the first sight of that digital printed camo boy walking down the terminal hallway time froze, nothing else mattered other than me hugging my handsome prince charming, okay okay and kissing him too yeah yeah of course.
the two weeks passed so fast, its almost a blur, but a blur of the best kind. above is our last kiss for 4 whole months, a time during which i will be staying busy and thinking of him always.
