Day 10 : A picture that you or your significant other took on webcam or cell phone

**Check out that tan line!!! :)

Talking to Jason when he was in Thailand.

Loving on those tan lines! This amazing guy of mine waited in line EVERY day to talk to me!...Im beginning to think he doesnt care as much! lol JKKKKK...I know hes busy and the situation is a little different this time which sucks but I know he loves me and I hope he knows just how much I love him...

Day 9: A picture of your favorite thing that you or your significant other has made and tell what it is.

This is a blanket that Jason made for me before he left for training... I absolutely love it! Also in the picture (but really small) are his name tapes that I have made into a bracelet and wear with pride! I'm so proud of my marine!

Yesterday was so exciting because I FINALLY got an email from Jason! I cannot even begin to describe how happy it made me to hear from him as it has almost been a wholeeeeee week! I don't know how the military wives do it! I am sure it will take some getting use to and I know this is kinda our first REAL time apart considering when he was away for training before, I got pretty lucky and pretty much talked to him every day....he spoils me :) I love him so much and miss him more than anything right now and I constantly find myself checking my email to see if I have heard anything...buttttt nothing.... Oh goodness this month needs to go by fast! I cannot wait until I am in his arms again!

Day 8 : A picture that is your favorite from deployment, or if he hasn’t been deployed yet, a picture of see you laters, him coming home, or him deployed, and tell why it is your favorite.

love this picture because its a picture of Jason and his "other woman" lol and two of his best friends that mean the world to him! These are some of the greatest guys and I am so glad that he has them in his life and that I have had the pleasure of meeting them! (ignore the middle finger lol)

Day 7 : A picture of a wonderful friend that you’ve made because of your significant other being in the military.

A picture of Blair and her marine!

Breandy!....(Breanne and Andy...cant wait to see them when I come visit again!)

Heather, a sister from the CW and a fellow boilermaker! 

Jess! Love her!

These are pictures of some of the most amazing people I have met since being introduced to the military (marine) life....I dont know what I would do without them! 

Also everyone on the CW who I left out! I LOVE YOU ALL!

Day 6 : A picture of the base your man is at and tell 5 cool things about that base.

This is a picture of the transient barracks I believe *which is where we stayed when I visited! :)

ahhh I miss it so much! (You can see the ocean in the background too!)

1. All MALE... 2. Beautiful beach 3. Home of the 4th Marine Regiment 4. It was dedicated in 1959 in honor of Albert E. Schwab who was killed in action during the battle of Okinawa. 5. There is a small little PX with awesome trinkets...and some great restaurants with taco rice right off the base! lol (not sure what else!)

Day 5 : A picture of the branch he is in and list your favorite thing about him being in the military.

I miss him so much and I love that he is doing what he loves.

He truly is my hero and I miss him so much every day.

Not being able to hear his voice is killing me but I know in time, everything will be ok. Sooner or later we will be together and it will all be for good reason that we are apart.

Semper Fi!

Day 4 - A picture of the family he had to leave behind to protect his country.

Jason and his family as we said goodbye at the airport...that was the hardest day...I was falling in love with someone so fast and they were leaving to go thousands of miles away...I don't think I really spoke to anyone that entire day. I was completely numb and had no idea what to think, do, or say. It was such a relief to know that he was back in Japan safe and sound and that I could finally hear his voice and see him on skype.

I kind of feel the same way right now because it has been 3 days since I have heard from him which I know is nothing compared to most couples in military relationships but I miss his voice, i miss everything that makes me smile...I miss him so much...and school is so crazy right now and stressful and I have no idea how to cope with all of this because the one person that can cheer me up is so far away and un-contact-able....I just wish I could hear his voice. Every time I hear that sound that notifies you when you get an email on your iPhone, I get so excited hoping, praying that it is him...but every fricken time, its nothing but junk mail or class/purdue email....I am so stressed and completely looking forward to this weekend and going home for break the only thing is that I really am not sure if I ever want to go back....going to oki again after this next month, its going to be hard for me to come home. I honestly do not know how much more of this I can take...I am at my breaking point and I can only think of one thing that will make all this stress go away, and thats to be with him...but I don't have that option (at least according to my parents)....I am so lost...
