I think one of the best days of my life is when I became a senior. I'm so ready to get out of school so I can start college and get my own apartment. Another time is when I traveled to Cali to visit my family. It was so beautiful....And when I met my boyfriend.... |

One of the best days of my life would probably be July 7, 2008. It was the day that went off to boot camp for the U.S. Navy. I was so excited to actually venture out on my own; away from the drama. Also, April 11, 2009. That was the day that I met the love of my life. Have been goin' strong ever since. |

The best day of my life was when I moved out of my refugee home and was able to live in a village. those days we'd get ice cream delivered were like magic and very rare. I think people can learn a lot just from denying themselves something so wonderful for a while. You truly appreciate it more in the end no matter your age. |

Classy lies? It doesn't seem like you were from here? Where are you from? And that seems right about people denying themselves but at times it's for the best. |

KJ? I was just getting that war and bootcamp thing straight because since i was little i always thought it was like that. But was it necessary for you to go to bootcamp for the navy? |

What made you choose the navy? Alot of people on my mothers side were in the navy or some type of army field....if that's the correct term for it? |

I think you mean 'Branch of Service' :) But umm, I don't have an exact reason as to why I joined the Navy. I actually left for bootcamp right after high school. I had no scholarship for college and the economy really sucks right now, so a good paying job was no where to be found. So, I joined the Navy. I get the GI Bill once I get out for college so I will have no worries. But really, I think that the Navy was the right choice for me. |

Well in bootcamp I learned a lot of the Navy's history and I also learned discipline. I had to learn to just listen and obey; even if it is something totally ridiculous that I am being told to do (do it). Lessons of the Navy: learn to live life without regrets. Try to get everything that you can out of each day. |

Nah, that sounds like the Air Force. Navy is the protector of the seas. We are the ones with the big flashy ships ;) lol. But I am in the aviation field. So that means I work on aircraft. I dont fly, just maintain. I am a rated Aviation Structural Mechanic. We make sure that the planes or jets are ready to take flight without any malfunctions eh. |

Wow that means you are VERY smart. I don't know how anyone could work in the fields that they do without being confused by their work.... |

Yeah, well it's really not that hard. All you have to do is listen. I mean, it's not like they put a F-18 in front of me and say: "fix it, Sailor!". lol. We have to be taught everything before we are able to touch $40 million aircraft eh. But what is your occupation? Or are you in school? |
