Finally Home safe

My man is finally home and I couldn't be more relieved and happy !! Homecoming was the most exhilarating experience of my life. Let me tell you a lil bit of how it went !!

Well first I was so thankful I wasn't all by myself in a strange town. My man has this great family for me to stay with and they were very familiar with homecomings. I was briefed on EVERYTHING you could imagine about homecomings including the jitters and hormone craziness. I don't know what I would have done without them.

So this whole thing went down in a huge field and it was at night so it was dark.  My man contacted me and told me what bus he was on, or so I thought.  When The buses finally got there my heart was racing  and my whole body was shaking like a leaf.

I was standing as close as I could the the "supposed" bus that he was getting off of. I was getting really nervous when marines kept stepping off and none were him, it was getting to the end and I was like where is he did me get the buses mixed up?  While all this stuff was going on in my head all of a sudden I was completely airborne and I screamed  bloody murder ! I have never screamed that loud EVER!  He had given me the wrong bus number so he could sneak up behind me and wrap me up in a hug before I saw him, what a sneaky marine.
After I got done screaming I turned around and held him for  a few seconds before kissing him senseless.

Oh the rush of feelings going through me at that moment cannot be explained, I didn't want to leave his arms for anything.

Well I guess that is all for now I am just really happy he is safe and that I am in the same state as him. :)  Now to spend the next 2 weeks  with my Marine and love!

PS I have pictures coming but it will be a few days.

Letters, Homecoming dresses, and April fools

        I bet you can guess from the title that I got a letter today !!!!  This marks the very first letter I have received from my love in sand-land since he left ;). Let me just bask in this glorious moment... can I say right now that my man is AMAZING.  He is a very talented writer ( though he may deny it), reading his letters makes me feel incredibly loved. The letter was marked march 9th and it only took 23 days to get here (I think thats a record)  :)

msg. on the back of my letter... just a teaser I'm not telling you what else he wrote.. ;)

       Today has also marked another GREAT moment, I have been searching for a dress for homecoming. One that suits me perfectly and makes me feel beautiful and as always I look for comfort first. :)  Well I found the dress !! its perfect and I feel beautiful in it and I know my man will think I"m beautiful no matter what I wear but its important for me to look and feel amazing.
 heres a sneak peak..... picture to come with ME in it eventually

Last, today is April fools day and I was at the mall for a short moment to get something for a special gift... but I found out that said thing was ILLEGAL in NY (stupid rules).  On a happier note I found my dress ... Anyway I found a very funny car in the lot that was pranked upon, haha and I took a picture. but my camera is being stupid so you will just have to deal with my lovely description.  You know the extra heavy duty plastic wrap ? .. well there was a car COMPLETELY covered I mean wrapped up tight in plastic wrap and then they put sticky notes all over the wrap and then in big bold letters on the back it said 4 sale. (I personally would have put free.. but thats just naughty me.)
 Well there you have it Hope you enjoyed !

Who had an AMAZING morning?? ME !!.... Who got a call from her amazing, wonderful, thoughtful, handsome, Man?? ME !!!!!!!!!!!!! I cannot express the excitement I was in and still am in from my wonderful man's call this morning. I am sure I will be floating on cloud nine until he calls again. :) Have I told you how amazing and wonderful my man is?? well he is.. end of story!!  I will go through anything to be his girl no matter how hard life gets. Living life to the fullest is not for the weak hearted. Being with a marine is HARD don't get me wrong but I would choose him a zillion times over again. he is my match, my love. I am so very thankful that God has brought us together.
Heres me floating on cloud nine..... Semper Fi, Amber joy In love with her man :)

Communication is the KEY

I left for class a little early so I could stop in to see my Bio Professor. I wanted to talk to her about having my phone on in her class. I told her how my boyfriend is a Marine and how he's deployed and that I have missed 2 phone calls from my man in her class within a week. She was extremely caring and understanding I almost broke down and cried right there in her office when she said it was ok if I left her class to take a call. Moral of the story; always be in communication with your professors (there not heartless people) you will be surprised how kind hearted many of them are but they have to hide that in there class so as to keep order. There are way too many kids in college who don't want to be there and need a drill instructor instead of a teacher.
I am so full of joy right now I could dance and cry and laugh and sing all at the same time, most likely I'll just cry.
Thank you to my wonderful Bio teacher for understanding.
