Hello September!

Hey there! Things sure have been busy for me lately! I have been traveling back and forth attending drills in Perrine, FL. I love that I get a get-away every month! It was so nice to see my battle buddies. It was the first time I had seen them since the end of our deployment to Afghanistan and everyone is doing well in the civilian world. We completed a 3 mile company run during the weekend. A solider asked me what sports I played. I laughed it off because as much as I would like to be, I am not athletically inclined at all! My supervisor stated that my sport was pageants! He is so right! =)  I also started the paperwork process for becoming an officer! I'm really excited about it! At the end of the drill weekend I was awarded the Medal of Good Conduct at drill. It was a pleasant surprise =). It felt great to know that my superiors recognized how hard I work to be an excellent solider. 

My semester at Nova Southeastern University has also kept me busy! I am taking 3 classes which equates to a full times work load. There is no denying that my classes are tough but I enjoy how challenging they are. I'm shooting for a 4.0 GPA so I do a lot of research and I take my time when completing my assignments. My first 2 research papers are due in 2 weeks!  I’ve been slowly but surely completing them and I am anxious to get feedback from my professors. 

School is back in session here in the Virgin Islands so its time to start my volunteer efforts again! I’m looking forward to working with S.P.A.R.K.S, Habitat for Humanity and My sorority Delta Sigma Theta!

I have a surprise for you but I won’t tell you what it is just yet! =) In my next post I will be sure to let you know all about m next endeavor! I promise =). Until then Live. Laugh. Love.
