Imagination never took me here.

I decided on a whim to study business administration for my associates degree.
I chose marketing as my concentrated study for my bachelor's degree, solely because my cousins had done really well after college when they studied it.
I joined the military on a day when I did not know where to go in life after college.
I decided to put all (or as much as I could) of me aside and befriend the unlikeliest of people to make my relationship work.
I chose to bite my tongue and have faith that this is what life was leading me to.

Overall, I am more than pleased with the outcome. 

My new job doesn't deal with business administration for the most part... nor does it deal with marketing.
I rarely made honor roll throughout college, though I was working full time, studying full time, and partying overtime.
I have done great in the military. It has given me the best experiences of my life, and is what I am most proud of.  I am so sad to see it go. 

Thus is life, and so it goes on.

Testing waters with "new" friends who I was not so certain about has pushed me to my limit, only proving to myself that I have no limit.  Oprah said it best, "anything is possible to those willing to make the sacrifices."
My relationship has grown into everything I had hoped for.  I have never felt so comfortable with someone before.
I recognize that I take my luck for granted. 

Greg deserves credit for keeping me sane and driving me to the brink of insanity all at the same time.

In a few days, I will be in the Bahamas with Greg and his family. I'm most excited to spend time with his family. We could go anywhere... But the Bahamas is a nice option. :) 
Hopefully I will start my job soon after that... Still waiting on a start date.

Life is amazing.
