Then and Now

*Whew*

I didn't realize it'd been so long since my last blog...November 2006, where has my mind been? Hmm...let's see:

November 2006, I was in the Middle East--an interesting place--I can't go too far in depth about what went on over there, I'll just say the media has a way of putting a twist on things. If one takes a step back and observe the big picture, it will have your mind racing. Somethings I just don't understand.

December happened--my birthday, the holidays, and the "New Year". All the same given my location in the world at that time.

January 2007--gotta admit, I felt different. This is the year that my life will change, I am separating from the military, moving the Philadelphia, going to school, and transitioning to a "Real Job". The road that was once a place in time is now a reality...initially, it was a scary feeling. I thought to myself, "I am getting out of the military, I need to find a job, a place to stay--What Am I Going To Do?" First things first, create a plan and stick to it. Funny how if you just do it...things start to happen.

February 2007--Feeling kinda froggy. This was interesting month, a lot happened in a short period of time. I returned back to the states from the Middle East, visited my family down in Florida, returned to VA. As soon as my feet hit the ground, the video production jobs came rolling in--sigh, what a lovely feeling. My film partner and I headed to Philly to visit and also to look at my house and check out Temple. Things were coasting along with ease.

March 2007--Return to VA, return to work. Same thing, different day. I am a believer that everything happens for a reason. My job allows me to do things such as "Work from work". I am grateful for that, however sometimes this job can be a bit...just a bit annoying. Technically, I have no room to complain, I get a lot of stuff done given my schedule...so, in short, guess I'll leave this situation alone.

April 2007--Time grows near. Now working on my resume, the "Real World" is becoming more of a reality. My plan is to make a smooth transition from the military to civilian life style. Although I know it will happen, the beforehand or the unknown is the part that leaves one with a little uncertainty. Failure isn't an option.
