Administration Support

The school's administration has had such support throughout the deployment; I want to thank everyone who has helped me, before I graduate. They've exempted the students with military personnel deploying, a few times. These days included the family picnic, the activation ceremony, and now they are exempting my brother and I the day Alan comes home. I have so much to thank them for, and this is only the beginning. The faculty is awesome, and I've realized that no matter what you're going through they're there.

Though they may not know how it feels to go through something like this, they're willing to sit there and listen. Sometimes this is what these students need; someone to sit there and listen so they can let bottled up feeling out.

Exitement

I will be missing school in a few weeks so I can be at the airport when my brother comes home for his two weeks!! I am extremely excited, and so is he! We've been talking about his coming home for awhile now, and we've decided we're taking the bikes up in the hills with all of our friends. It shall be a great time riding in the hills with everyone!

The thing I'm not looking forward to, though, is saying goodbye for the second time in one year. At least next time he comes home it will be for good! :)
