Well friends, the time has come for me to leave.

Remember, I'll should be back around July 4th, God willing. If I get injured or something else happens, I'll end up staying even longer, so let's all pray things go well.

For a long time up until now, I've had mixed feelings. I was excited some times, and most others I was downright scared.  But I've got everything I need packed, I'm in pretty decent shape, and I'm prepared mentally for the challenges I'll face. And it's all thanks to my friends, who have been helping me through it. We'll be far away from one another, but I know they've got my back, and they're supporting me and praying for me. Knowing that, and that they have helped me be prepared for training, I feel a TON more confident. It's even comforting knowing that my DA friends care so much. I love you guys♥

The good news is, I have a friend who's at Fort Leonard Wood right now, so I may at least get to say hi to him while I'm there. A familiar face should be a welcome relief to all the chaos.

It's going to be so different without being able to speak to my best friends though. Saying goodbye...was harder than I ever imagined.

But now it's time for me to leave the tears behind. Sulking isn't going to help me. After taking a deep breath and letting everything sink in, I'm forcing myself to look forward to all this. No worry. No fear. I'm going to make this fun.

Take care everyone! Wish me luck!
