The Decision...

Over the last several days or weeks i guess i can say now i have been thinking alot. I have been looking over options and what things might appeal to me for my future. Back in may of last year i made a promise to myself to be honest with myself and to do things for me, Not to let other people be the deciding factor in stuff that i do or why i do them. I have had several opportunities present them self to me in washington, utah, alaska.... and the miltary.

For years i have wanted to do something meaningful with my life, i have finally made the steps to find myself with my move to montana and now its time to give my life some direction. One day i would like to have a family and what not so i would like a career and i feel for me the best way to do that is through the military.

Its crazy that it took meeting someone who is living there dream and loving it to get me to want to get off my butt and live one of mine. Even though we hardly talk now id just like to thank her for the motivation, i needed it. I feel like the decisions i made to move here and now to join the military, i am am finally following my heart. The goal is to lose 20 lbs by atleast march and than head out for basic. But just figured id let you all knows whats going on in the life of Garrett.

2009


Well a brand new year for all of us, how many of us stuck to our resolutions? I think i did ok i could have done better but i did manage to lose 40 of my 100 lbs that i wanted to lose so i am pretty happy about that. This year i have made a resolution with Kendall to lose 20 lbs so hopefully the choices in a career i make this year will help me get there.


My new years was pretty good I have been in washington since december 26th and will be here till the 4th. We met up with some of Kendall's friends and drove up to seattle around 5 p.m. We stayed at the sixth avenue inn up in seattle and i didnt smell it but some people said it smelled like urine but who knows lol.


Kendall was a few drinks up on everyone cause she decided not to waste time and get to it. We ended up playing a drinking game called kings which was pretty fun i guess your normally supposed to drink it with beer not hard A lol so by the time we got done doing that and started getting ready we were all feeling pretty good.


We got a taxi and went to a club i have no clue what the name was but it was alot of fun. And yes some how Kendall got me to dance dont ask me how but she did. That really is like once in a life time thing. But it was alot of fun. The walk home was intersting just cause of some drama that was going on with people but besides having to pee super bad and and it raining it was alot of fun.


Not really sure what time it was when we all atempted to try and sleep. But ryan ripped one of the longest and loudest farts i have ever heard i would have been proud to call it my own. All in all it was really fun. I am really glad who i got to spend it with she is an amazing person and just knowing her is pushing me to better myself. And i am really glad i decided to come and see her.
