Hey Hey Hey...
I'm beyond exhausted...spent way too much time being awake, I got poked and prodded in places you don't want to know. Military Physical...not as bad as it is made out to be, just don't plan on being modest at all, because you are stripped down to skivvies in a room full of people...and you have to do the funniest stretches and maneuvers wearing nothing but underwear. It's amusing...but yea, I passed the physical. Now all I have to do is finish paperwork, send it to MEPS, and then as soon as they call me, I have to get there within 2 hours to swear in, and get my job, sign the contract, and I will officially be in the Navy. I'm excited...like severly. I am going to basic in November. And then I'll be so set for the rest of my life...it's not even funny. Okay...I'm like beyond tired...I need a good movie, and my bed...night all~~Nicole

I went to God's Bath today
I swear I just spent the day at one of the most beautiful places ever...it was gorgeous...called God's Bath, we drove half an hour into the canyons behind where I live...and then stopped at a bridge, climbed down to the river, and then hiked almost a mile to the place they call God's Bath. Seriously imagine about a 20 ft waterfall heavily falling into this pool that is surrounded by high rocks...high smooth rocks, like the smooth marble of a bathtub. And then the pool being deep, like 30 feet...it was beautiful. It was refreshing, and gorgeous...the water was so clear...you could see about 20 ft down in the water before it got too dark...there was a ledge under the waterfall that you could sit on...it was just so beautiful...I'm so taken away by it...still. Next time I go up, I'm going to take pics, and post them...everyone should see that place...

soreness, tired...and still going
Okay...so I've been busy lately...I wake up anywhere between 6 and 8 am, and head straight to the gym, where I spend the next two hours of my day. First of all running, then lifting weights, then swimming...and of course I need to wind down by sitting in either the hot tub or the sauna for 20 minutes. I have to say that the jets in the hot tub feel oh so good on my back...I need a real massage. The sooner the better...But yea, here's the update on my journey in the Navy...tomorrow morning, I'm going down to the recruiting office, at which time I will be starting my paperwork, and on the 19th and 20th, I'm heading up to Sacramento for MEPS...the military enlisting place...the 20th will start my career in the military, I get my job, I get sworn in...I get the date that I ship out... I plan for the future, and I get the hell out of this town...but for now I need to go to bed, I have to be up at 6 am...so night all...~~Nicole

The only thing they are good for right now is to piss me off. If they don't want to hang out with me, then fine...I don't need them, Just don't lie to me. Especially when I end up at the same place you are at. And then telling me that you'll call back, and then you don't, and I run into you out and about. So you invite me over, and then ignore me. Fuck it...I don't need them. Just one less tie to my old life. I'm changing, and so is everything about me. The only thing I want to keep the same is my family. They will always be there for me, they support me, and love me. And I'm not going to make any kind of effort to keep friends...if they care about me, they'll call me. I'm willing to put money down to say that Jenn will call as soon as Heather leaves for school again. No, she'll call me on Wednesday when Heather is in San Diego. I'm pissed...and I won't answer the phone. If she can't call me unless she's bored, then I don't need to be used like that...I'm going to go and eat...I'm pissed...I need a distraction. ~~Nicole

I have found my way out of this town. I've found a destination in my life. I have found something that is going to make me happy. Something that will point me in a direction, that will give me a goal, and something to focus on. I'm going into the military. I'm still not sure as to what branch, either Navy or AirForce...but I'm still going. The Navy keeps sounding better and better, so that might just end up as my choice. Okay...I have to go, but that's my news for the day. ~~Nicole

My day was pretty normal...I went with my mom to the theatre and worked on costumes for the West Side Story...mom can't figure out how to recreate accessories, so I got to help. And then I went to work. Nothing major. Pretty simple actually. Tomorrow I'll be up before the sun, so that we can go to Travis AFB. Getting our military id's renewed. I'm looking forward to seeing guys...in uniform too. Oh yea...I'm excited. Well not about the being up early part. That's gonna suck slightly. But yea...I'm done rambling, so I'm out for the night...later gators...~~Nicole

This is a peak into my life. I need a place to deposit my thoughts and feelings where no-one really knows me. My friends get a live encounter and explanation of it all, but I still need a place where I can go off on random shit, and know that they aren't going to laugh at me. So know that if you are reading this, that it is your own choice. That everything on this page is either a thought of my own, or some other piece of literature or art that has somehow brought forth emotion from me. Seeing as that I am a fairly emotional person, there should be a lot on here. I'm a fairly open person, closing up only on things that I can't handle myself. There are a few traumatic events in my life, nothing super major. Nothing I didn't survive. My life is pretty typical. I'm a 19 year old girl, desperately wanting to be out of my parents house. And so close to doing so. I went away one year to college. And it wasn't for me. I couldn't make it there. And I'm going to try a different route in life. Definitely taking a year off to figure myself out. Working, becoming independent. And not a toy for my mother. As I have been most of my life. I know that I can do it. With a little support from friends, that's all that I really need. And I have the right friends to get that support from. They are all a year or two older, and have already moved out on their own, and have promised me all the support that I need. So here I go, on my own. And with that I wrap up my first entry. Peace~~ Nicole
