So a little about me... I am 22 years old. I graduated from college with my bachelors in social work and currently work as a social worker in a nursing home. You would think that I have my life on track but unfortunately the most important thing in my life is missing. My boyfriend is a United States Marine and our entire relationship has been long distance and that distance will be even longer as he is getting ready to deploy. Since this blog will mainly be based on my feelings during our first deployment, I will give you a little background to us.
We met in September of 2009 at a party. Noticed him when we got there and thought that he was a freshman and that was why I had never seen him before. Later on in the night, a mutual friend (his bestfriend) introduced us and I guess you can say the rest was history. Our relationship has been based mainly on Skype Dates, which I love. Of course its not the same as being together but it is all I can get for right now. This deployment will be the first as a couple and also his first. It feels like it is right around the corner which makes each day harder. So if your following, get ready for the good, the bad and the sad because I can only imagine what this deployment is going to bring!
