Weird item freewrite

The blue plastic milk cap ring. Seems irrevlevant, but really it may just be the most important part of the milk gallon. I hate warm milk. And I hate soured milk. This little plastic piece is what seals all the deliciousness of milk that everyone loves, and keeps it fresh. Atleast until the ridiculously short expiration date is up. I remember when I was a kid and most the milk gallons had the little tab that you had to pull to get the cap off. That was this little plastic piece. This is really all I've got on freewriting about a blue plastic milk cap ring.

I don't have my backpack and the only things I have in my pocket are truck keys and my phone. So my phone it is. My phone is an iPhone 4s. It's pretty cool I guess. I'm sure in the hands of someone extremely techy it has endless possibilities for use but for me it calls and texts. My screen is cracked awfully bad, which just gives it character. Really its like a built in security system because nobody is going to steal a broken phone right? Other than that its just a phone. Maybe that's weird that were in an age where a cell phone is no longer cool. I'm sure people in the pre-cellphone era would have loved to have literally the world at the touch of their fingertips. It probably would have made their lives easier in lots of ways, and complicated in lots of ways just how it is for us now. Still, we take forgranted such a great technology item simply because it is so common. There's still alot of people today in the world who don't have cell phones, let alone running water, or even electricity. It really is crazy how we can have so much cool stuff as a society, and just not even think twice about how lucky and thankful we should be to have those things. I guess my first sentence shouldn't have been the only 2 things I have in my pockets are truck keys and a phone. I should be thankful that I have things like those available to me. Life wouldn't neccesarily suck without them, but it would be difficult to adapt.

Creedo

The creed I try to live my life by was introduce to me 3 years ago, and while it is not unique to me, the meanings of the creed are. While it seems very straight forward, I believe the values it calls for transfer to everyday life as well. 

I am the Infantry.
I am my country's strength in war.
Her deterrent in peace.
I am the heart of the fight...
wherever, whenever.
I carry America's faith and honor
against her enemies.
I am the Queen of Battle.
I am what my country expects me to be...
the best trained solider in the world.
In the race for victory
I am swift, determined, and courageous,
armed with a fierce will to win.
Never will I betray my country's trust.
Always I fight on...
through the foe,
to the objective,
to triumph over all,
If necessary, I will fight to my death.
By my steadfast courage,
I have won more than 200 years of freedom.
I yield not to weakness,
to hunger,
to cowardice,
to fatigue,
to superior odds,
for I am mentally tough, physically strong,
and morally straight.
I forsake not...
my country,
my mission
my comrades,

my sacred duty.
I am relentless.
I am always there,
now and forever.

Find time to relax

The biggest problem for me is letting go and relaxing. Between work, and school, and military duty on weekends and on call, I never seem to make anytime for myself. The amount of stress my schedule puts me under probably demands a little break away sometime just to clear my head and realize that there's more to my life than running around with a packed sschedule. I could really use a weekend back at my parents house where I could go hunting with my dad, or just sit around and talk with my parents and relax. I kind of thrust myself into commitments without ever thinking about how I am going to get enough time to sleep, or study and it really causes quite a bit of stress in the long run. Even as I sit here and type this about needing to maybe find time to destress and relax, I know I won't ever sacrifice something else I have committed to in order for me to have a lazy, laidback day. I'm sure that over the summer when school is out I'll have some free time after work to relax and be a noraml 20 year old kid, but for now, my relaxation time is slim. Honestly, one of the more relaxing things I've done the past few weeks is write in this blog. I thought it was a stupid idea at first, but I suppose it does help with your writing in some way.
