1 Month into it
Aww yes, it is that time of year once again. The has turned crisp, the wind a little blustier and the leaves on trees are starting to turn colors. But it is also a sign that I have started school once again. I'm already a month into my senior year of college, and it feels as though school began not that long ago. How does time fly when you are busy. Cliche, I know, but it is the honest to God truth. Between 21 credits, the National Guard, ROTC, and my job it is a wonder that I have any time left to do anything. Fortunately, there is a light at the end of the tunnel, and hopefully it is not the headlamp of an oncoming train. Graduation is now 7 months away, provided that nothing goes horribly wrong, and I can't wait for that day to come so that I can continue my life and close this chapter.

Of course it doesn't help things that over the past few weeks I've been very distracted in my thinking, I find that my mind has liked to wander to one subject over and over again. Of course there is only one thing that can possibly distract a man like that over and over, and it not thoughts of food, sports, fast cars, guns or hunting, but a woman. A couple of months ago I fell for an amazing girl, and I can't get her out of my head. Of course I don't have the courage to tell her though. It's strange, I have the courage to run into a fire fight, handle explosives, and getting shot at, but I don't have the courage to do something so simple as talk to a woman. She's is everything I could possibly want in a woman, she's a good Christian, smart, beautiful, has common sense, confident and knows what she wants. Thankfully we've become good friends over the last couple of years and get along well. The sad thing is, is that no matter how much I love her, she deserves a much better man then myself. She deserves the best man she can find. I want to talk about this with someone, but we pretty much have the same friends and anything I say will end up back with her, so I have nobody to talk to about it with and it is frustrating.

Alright, enough of that before I knock myself into a tizzy. Though I do have to say that it feels good to get that off of my chest. This summer I finally did decided on a career path for myself though. Much to my satisfaction. I've decided that in congruence to my career in the National Guard, I am going to serve as a police officer - hopefully as a sex crimes detective. After at least a few years as a cop, I plan on going to get a masters or Ph.D in Archaeology and teach Archaeology and go into Biblical Archaeology. I've come to the conlcusion that that has to be one of the most unique career tracks ever devised.
