2012 So Far
13 years ago
Figured it's about time for an actual journal.
(Warning: Nothing really interesting or furry in here :p)
For the past couple of years I've come to understand that 2012 was going to be a very defining year in my life. It's my last full year in the military along with my last deployment. So it basically means this year I have to choose where I want to go, what I want to do, and when I want to do it. All these things taken into account, I could only assume that it would be a year of both stress and happiness. I couldn't be more right. So far this year I've gone through a rollercoaster of emotion and stress both in my personal and professional lives.
Work has been nonstop and intense. I've wrapped up the first month of an X month deployment to Bahrain with my minesweeper crew. You hear about Iran and all the drama over there? It's Naval minemen that it primarily directly affects and so things are hectic. The stress is taking a physical toll on my body, I'm starting to have sleeping issues and the military is taking steps to treat me, but as of yet I haven't recieved a diagnosis, but I do have a study coming in the near future. I think I can count on one hand the number of days I've had off this year aside from my vacation to my shep.
Personally my mind is in the future. Aside from working out, which I do often, I'm talking to my mate or surfing the internet on my little free time. I don't like this place and all so mentally I'm not really 'here'. My future after the military is starting to take shape, though. I'm saving money, I know where I want to go, what I want to study, and what I want to do. But I'm not going into this, this future may be soon or later this year but in any case it's more so for me and the others involved :p
The short of it is that times are rough but the future is bright. I'm doing my best to blow through this deployment headfirst and make it to the end of it all but the home stretch is a difficult one. Thank's to those of you who are supporting and helping me, you all make this much much easier!
