I'm Back and more

Okay its been a while since I have updated my posts so I thought I would finally take the time to write an updated blog. To begin I am back from my long and dragged out deployment in the Med. in which it was more political than anything where we were attached to the NATO forces for about four months. I did get to see a lot of places though which were all unique in there own way. Some really awsome places that I do have to mention are Rome, Italy, Mykonos, Greece, and my favorite out of all the places is Palma, Spain. Out of these I would more likely would vist Palma and or Mykonos, of course not on the Navy's terms. And I would like travel Europe for like a month or some going all over starting North and ending South somewhere.
Okay so now I am back in the U.S and have been since the 16th of September, I went back home where I visited my wonderful girlfriend and of course my family. I got to spend some much need time with her going up intot he mountains twice, once camping but only for one night because of the time limitations (thanks Navy) and then we went four wheeling one afternoon. Which was also awsome. Spent some time witht the family catching up in all the I missed like for one my mom's car being stolen the day after I arrived... hmm yeah so that was interesting but all in all it worked out in the long run. All of this was short lived because I had to get back to the Navy, yeah for me. I really hate... really hate the fact that although I am only like six states away I have to have permission to go home and even then its counted down like some big time clock.
So here I sit and though it has been siven months since I last updated this it seems like I am back doing the same thing day in and day out as I was before I leaved for my wonderful deployment. However I feel like I have a fire within me and thanks to my girlfriend helping me realize what I need to do in the near future I am now but slowly getting started on my next career or what I really should have done in the first place which is college and also getting thing lined up for my job which will hopfully be a firefighter\EMT. I have a lot to thank her for because I now have something more to look forward to in the future. Having her in my life and soon getting out of the Navy which has been quickly becoming a dead end so getting out I would have the freedom to get the actual job I want.
People say that the Navy is what you make of it, I thought that was right at first and being over in Japan for the time I was I took that advice but now that I realized and woke up from all of that I now see that there is much, much more to life than this, One the freedom to live.... ( yeah non military) two I have such a wonderful girlfriend that I love and chersih and whom I want to be with, I think we are doing good so far being that I have been with her for almost two years my longest relationship ever. Three, being away from my family Ihave missed so much out of there lives that I don't even begin, I feel like I have abandon them because of the since of responsiblity that I left behind. Yes some told me that I chose this fate and like my father said we have to live our lives. Yes true to all but we can change what we have started for the better and that is what I plan on doing.

Okay more to come......
