Holy crap, im seriously leaving?!

So, as we all know, I'm peacin' out dis joint yo!
No, but seriously, I'm leaving July 16th, and communication with me will be...limited....to say the very least. For the first 9 weeks, it will be letters. (Don't look here for my address, I wont be able to post it, just ask around...) However, I do want letters, from everyone, That's how I'm going to survive the first 9 weeks. After that, I'll have my phone, and my email and AIM, however, my time on it will be, obviously, limited. Therefore, as I wont be able to call everybody, I can do the net best thing. Blog! (The Honduras trip gave me the splendid idea!!)
It's funny, I'm sitting in my room, and I'm missing this town already. I'm convinced Sewickley has officially succeeded in.....eating my soul....aw crap! (It's kinda like the gnat eating my soul before Honduras, right Alisa? sorry folks, try as you might, you wont understand that one!)
But seriously, I'm going to need tons and tons of support, and prayers, and letters, and prayers and more letters and more prayers....getting the drift here?!
Were can you get my address you may ask?
The obvious, talk to my family...their my peeps, they'll be the first to get it!
I'll also be sending a letter to Sewickley Starbucks, where I work, so customers can write to me....in case you haven't caught on, im dead serious about this letter crap!! haha
So, with all of that being said, please, just leave me some love for when I get out....
Leave me comments on here, because I'll be blogging thoughts before I leave, Facebook, Myspace and my email kurigerb15@hotmail.com
My phone will be disconnected for the initial nine weeks, but I'm going to call them the day I get out to reconnect it. Hell, I will barely even be GRADUATED and I'll be sneaking my phone around...oh Lordy...do you really think the military is ready for me?! We'll see...

For those of you who aren't so aware of my military agenda:
July 16th- I leave for the Ft. Indian town Gap in Harrisburg. (they refer to it as "The Gap," and I swear it took me two weeks to realize we aren't going to the mall...naw, I'm not a Sewickley boy!) Here, they will process me and scare the bejebus outta me......apparently it's harder than boot camp. We'll see.
Around the 20th, I'll be sent down to "Relaxin' Ft. Jackson" as they call it. apparently, if you WANT to go to a boot camp, it's Jackson. They say 9 weeks there, but we'll see when I actually graduate....
As soon as I get my address, my family will have it, around the beginning of August, start writing.....If you don't hear back from me, I'm sorry, its that I can't, not that I don't want to. And what ever you do....ABSOLUTELY NOTHING but letters in an envelope...I'm begging you, if you want me to survive this place, no packages, no pictures, no playboys, no nothing.....they will make me hate my life, and they will like it....and I'm sure they'll find enough reasons that I wont need help from someone sending me...whatever...you get the point...
After I'm trained killing machine (grrrrRRRRRRrrrrrrr) I'll be heading down to Ft. Gordon. Good Ol' Ft. Gordon Georgia...Been there...its boring...I want calls and texts out the wazzzzoooooooo.......once again, I wont respond right away, because I can't....
After however long they decide they want me there, I'll be home....Drilling once a month...You'd think I'd leave it at that...haha nope...As soon as I'm eligible (6 months after AIT) I'm going into Active Duty Air Force, or as one of my mature friends put it....Active Doodie...Yeah, real cute.
So, stand fast for more to come, and in the mean time, leave me messages on here telling me how freaking cool I am! haha j/k (that means just kidding for those who may not know...I need to remember I'm talking to a wide array of people....)
Peace, Love and smoke a flower (as the dear Cantor would say)
