I'm very excited  I found out that I got the 1 year assignment. So that will be 1 year of a steady paycheck and 1 year of set work hours and 1 year of working. I'm so excited. And true, I won't be able to make it to my sister's 18th birthday, but I'll atleast be able to send her a present and I might even be able to go visit during Christmas, who knows? But also, this means that depending on my first pay check I might be able to move out within 2 weeks, or before September is over, so I'm REALLY excited because that means I won't have to live with my boyfriend's family anymore!!! I never thought I'd be this excited about it, I can't wait until I get my paycheck, I'm pretty sure I'm going to be even more excited.

Also, this couldn't have come at a better time. Because his mom was going to have us move downstairs into a room and just pay for part of the utilities so I told her that we're only going to pay the amount that it would be for 2 people, of course she got upset and mad and everything and did her usual thing. But now I won't have to worry about it because she isn't going to move us downstairs until my boyfriend's grandparetns leave, which is 2 months away. So that gives us 2 months to save up and get an apartment.

Also, knowing how much my boyfriend procrastonates it will probably take him about a year to finishes studying, testing, signing up…etc. for the army or navy, so even if he gets into the army or navy a month or so befoer the 1 year is up then it's ok, because I figure that once he's gone to the army or navy then I'll have plenty of money saved up and can go back to California and start my life over there again. I'm SO excited!

Hopefully everything goes as planned
