I know that who ever actually reads this shit, really doesn't care about me or my life since it has no impact on theirs. So I'll just put this out there for those who are legitimately interested in my life. It's been almost a year since my last blog posting, and quite a bit has happened that has made me think more about my life and how I want to conduct it. I'm actually deciding to remain in the service as a Marine. I'm sure a lot of people who I talk to about this matter think I'm crazy and that I should really think about it first, but what they don't understand is that I've been thinking about it already for the past 4 1/2 years that I've already served. I'm not expecting people to understand why I'm doing this since everyone has their own motives for either getting out or staying in. All I know is that it is my decision and really no one else's business as the reasons why I'm deciding to stay in. I could right some more but my time limit is almost up and I've gotta allow other people to use the internet so that they can contact home. Because right now, I'm currently in Iraq. More will follow.
