Dear Chelsea,

Well, Older me anyways... Hi, how are ya?! Things are decent here, still sort of shaky. I wonder how it is with you now? What's the love life like? What's his (or her) name? What kind of personality do they carry? Are they funny? Aha, anyways I'll stop the interrogation. Wait, do we have a dog?! What breed? Name?

I hope you stuck through with the military plan. It will be pretty cool to be a Naval firefighter... I think so anyways. Are we stationed on a ship or submarine? How many countries have we been to? (Have we kissed any foreign guys?!) JUST KIDDING... maybe. The way it's looking, if I sign my papers and swear in in January, I'll leave around late December or early January. That being said, I should have finished my environmental science degree in December. Oh how did Australia and New Zealand? What grades did you make?

Anyways, I started Jiu-Jitsu classes. Did you keep up with it? How fit are we? Can we beat dads ass yet? Aha, yet again just kidding. I hope with all my heart that things worked out for the better. I know I'm super stressed and completely unfocused on the important things right now. There's too much outside stress for me to even think straight. I do know I'm keeping Jiu-Jitsu classes and running conditioning with Alec up. I really don't think people know just how much this Military career means to me... I have so many memories in this area, that being around here literally hurts my heart. I need a change, and a drastic one at that. I need to be my own person, which I don't even know who she is because K leaving took her away too. I haven't taken the time to be me... I hope we change that in the future. I hope we found someone who doesn't mind the completely damaged past, and who accepts us for past and present. That's something we need, right? That's a touchy subject, so I won't delve too deep.


Keep your chin up. Queens don't let their tiaras fall, remember? I hope we learned our lesson, on everything. You are my biggest hero, and my goals to do great things are inspired by who I aim to be. I have so many goals for myself, and I hope and pray (to what ever deity) that we stick to the plan and make the best out of our-self.

New year, new semester, not the same old thing. This semester will be a semester to redeem all the mistakes made in the previous five months.

1. I will wake up (sorta) on time for class.

Let's face it, last semester you woke up with enough time to brush your teeth and get to class and even then you were about 10 minutes late and rollin' in with some pretty unfortunate bed head. This semester we will set our alarms, wake up with time to get ready, and get to class on time!

And so it begins.

1. Walk in motivated and ready to rock

Camping out at the library is not for the faint of heart. You need to go in as a warrior. You usually have brought supplies (laptop, chargers, and textbooks) and sustenance (water, snacks, and blanket/sweatpants) since the battle will be for an undetermined length of time. Perhaps it is one assignment or perhaps it's four. You are motivated and prepared; you don’t doubt the assignment(s) will take time, but you know it couldn’t be that long.
