Dear Kimmy,
I hope that everything is going fine in your training though I know that it probably is. I'm not sure if I've told you yet, but I am proud of you. I'm proud that my girlfriend is so strong and ready to fight and protect other people because it's not something that everyone can say. Not everyone is willing to be so selfless and amazing.
I still miss you though and wish that you were here. No matter how proud I am of you, I'm not that selfless to want to share you with my country. I'd much rather that I could see you each day or at the very least even talk to you on the phone and hear your voice since letters never quite seem to make it fast enough and never quite seem to give me enough of you. But given the choice between letters or nothing, I'd choose the letters any day. Still, it's kind of hard to watch all of the couples around knowing that I still have a while before I'll even be able to see you face to face let alone be able to hug or kiss you. I'm not complaining though since it'll be worth it when I actually get the chance to do so.
The start of the school year has been nothing exciting, nor is my new doormate really. I'm rooming with Jared Greene, he was new last year so I don't know if you remember him but he doesn't seem too bad so far. There is, however, something that happened the other day that is worth drawing a bit of attention to. I got a letter, from my mom. Apparently she's in rehabilitation for drinking. Ah such an amazing family I come from, drugs and alochol what amazing genes to have around. She wants to talk, wants to try and make things better. After six years of no word, she decides that it's her time to try and get things back to normal between her, Daniel and I. I'm not sure what I should do or if I even want to write back to her. It probably doesn't help that I really can't talk to anyone about it since with the exception of you, no one around has even been through a similar type of issue. I suppose I could ask Daniel what he thinks and what he plans to do but we've always viewed things on such a matter differently and it probably wouldn't be very helpful. So I'm asking for you advice, what do you think I should do about it? What's your take on things?
I should go start on my homework now, Anderson has already assigned an essay that's due in a couple of days. Bet you're pretty glad to be out of his clutches and I can't wait till I am too, just one more thing to look forward to with graduation.
I love you and can't wait to hear from you.
Brett
