CuteBoyRandy... Off To Become A Man

Randy left about two weeks ago for Marine Basic Training. He is in San Diego and will be there for 13 weeks. It's hard but everyday I remind myself how proud I will be to stand next to my Marine once he gets home! I am so excited to see where our relationship will go from here!
The first day he left he was allowed to call home within the first 24 hours so he called him dad and told him he was safe and loved him, and that he would be able to contact home for two weeks. But somehow he was able to call me that Thursday to tell me he loved and missed me! I felt so good after that! Please pray for him to stay strong!.........
OH MY GOSH no joke right this second while I was writing this blog my phone rang and my Grandma called to tell me I had a letter from San Diego! I cannot wait to go home and read it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I am crying slightly not gonna lie...

Attention Classy Ladies

With the summer months passing by and temperatures at a high, all of us ladies are rockin our favorite tanks, off the shoulder and open-back tees, etc... While this is all fine and dandy, let me just say that it is never acceptable to wear any ensemble outside of which your bra, bra straps, or any part of your bra are visible in any form or fashion. I don't mean to go pooping on anybody's white-trash party or anything, but I feel it imperative that I make an attempt to alert those who continue to overlook this problem. And no, a bra strap is NOT the same as a tank top or camisole, and there is quite an evident difference between the two. Furthermore, some of you may be thinking that a brightly colored or patterned bra is more acceptable... this is not the case.
There are many ways to eliminate bra strap blunders, and here I will list a few...
1.) Bra's with convertable straps can be purchased at nearly any store on earth, including Wal-Mart.
2.) A more properly fitting shirt is sometimes highly effective.
3.) If the front or back of your bra is showing, put on a freakin' camisole, please, or just burn that shirt and dance with joy; for it has now been eliminated from your wardrobe! It probably didn't look very becoming (and may have been quite skanky) anyway.
4.) Lastly, there are bras with clear straps, and upon the rare occasion that one may notice them, that person will only know that you are aware of just how uncool it is to reveal your bra straps to the general public. And they will thank you for it.

To Laugh Or Not To Laugh

I'm on my way to class the other morning, and a maintenance man gets in the elevator with me. He looks at me extremely seriously and says, "I'm going to two," after which he looks intently from the "2" button to my hand, as if I should push it for him so that we may continue on with our morning elevator ride. This incident caused me to question the man's level of sincerity, since there are, in fact, only two floors in the building. I don't know where else he expected to go... there really isn't much to contemplate when you reside on the first floor of a building, and you need to go to the one just above it. Nevertheless, after studying his face which, I may add, did NOT flinch or crack so much as a slight smirk, I merely stated, "me, too." and pushed the button.
