Okay so i figured the you guys on my friend list probably think you know and understand me pretty well but to really understand me you have to look at my childhood.
to get a big picture of my child hood imagine a small girl being born in Japan on August 25 1995. Now skip one or two years and move that baby and her parents to north Carolina. Where in 1998 they have another girl. Now imagine them being raised. the eldest reads her first book[green eggs and ham] while her mother is deployed over-seas. The youngest takes her first steps while their mom is deployed over-seas. Now the mom is still over-seas and the eldest learns how to ride a bike and the mom still isn't back yet. This all happens over six months. Now in 2001 move them to Germany where the eldest is now in second grade and has basically been raised by her father and the youngest can only remember a time when their mother got back and had a neck surgery, and sometimes that her and her elder sister played in the fall in a pile of leaves. And some other times like a christmas when she got a barbie tent and a bouncy ball she could ride. Now They're mom deploys again over-seas. When their mom comes back it's all good times because they know that their mom needs to do this so they can eat. Now a little after their mom comes back from over seas their father travels up north for work and visits them on the weekends. This parting isn't as bad for the kids because they can spend some time with their almost non-existent mother. All of their found memories are with their dad. Now it's 2007 they spent christmas with their granny and stayed for new years while their parents went to Vegas. While their parents are gone the eldest has to comfort her younger sister who is sad that they aren't there. When they come back they take a long drive from Texas to California where they are enrolled in school and their mom seems to be staying with them for a while before she has to leave. After they settle in and have lived there for a year their mom begins to leave every week for TDY's [don't ask me to explain what this means]. then just when they think it's settling down their mom gets deployed again and while their mom is deployed the eldest daughter goes on a week long trip to DC. Leaving her sister and dad alone. When she comes back her sister has the guts to tell her it was more fun while she was gone because the computer was free. Shortly after the eldest daughter gets settled in again she learns after her mom gets back her father, the one that was their for all of the important mile-stones in her life, is going to go TDY when their mom gets back.
Now after reading my life up to the point you tell me if i am still the person you thought i was. Imagine making friends and having to leave them multiple times only to realize if you don't have their contact information you will never talk to them again. Now try to imagine that mental cut through your heart having to constantly make and lose friends over a steady period, then tell me not to feel the way i feel.
