hey again.... well i know Becky wont put this picture on hers, cuz she doesnt wanna make a big deal bout it, but i think its pretty sweet. today Becky got enrolled as a senior soldier... thats exciting!!!! she hates photos, but i made sure i took photos cuz i know she hates them so much!!! and i decided i would put one here for the whole world to see!!! she is gonna hate me... he he.
sooo proud of you Becky, u r sooo cool!!! but seriously, how good does she look!!!! ha ha ha!!!

Missing Home alot!

hey everyone,
well the past week has been really hard.... i have been sooo blessed with a family to spend Christmas with.... sooo blessed. Becky's family has been really good to me. but it has been such a hard week.

i have been missing my friends and family like crazy. i cant imagine what its going to be like to go another 9 months without seeing all of my friends and family other than Andy and my mum. i cant imagine spending another 9 months away from everyone. i got told the first 3 months were always the hardest when away, but i have found the first 3 months the easiest. now its the hardest... especially now that Denise is not going to be in Vancouver... i will miss her heaps and heaps. Last night, i was crying heaps and heaps. all week i have been trying to act strong and pretend that i am not as homesick as i am, but it didnt work. last night, i cried alot. i was with Becky and i am glad that i am with her, cuz she just seems to get it.... like not necessarily understand but she just gets it. she knows i am thankful that i get to spend christmas at her house, but she also knows that i am homesick and there is nothing wrong with that. she just gets it when i tell her, i feel as though some ppl dont. some ppl dont really get it... they think i either have to be feeling totally blessed or totally homesick... there is an in between.

so to all my friends back home in Aust, i love u soooo much and i miss u sooooo much and wish i could see u.... even for a day.

First Blog ever

sooo i thought i would conform to what everyone else is doing and start a blog.... mainly because its sooo hard sometimes for people to keep up with me, especially my friends in Australia. so here is a way that people can keep up with me and i can hopefully keep up with you.

sooo whats new with me? well i am in Saskatchewan, specifically Saskatoon. i am with Becky, one of my session mates from war college, which is sooo cool. she is sooo great. i love her heaps and heaps. we have had some really fun times here, like getting a piercing together, that was fun!!!! so yeah just resting and just relaxing before going bak to war college and getting back into my crazy insane routine....

so thats my life at the moment.... i love u all heaps and heaps and hope u get some enjoyment out of reading my blogs over the next months.
