update on my little sailor girl...she's still really really loving it there at A school. She is taking her final exam for the Basic Electronics today so wish her well. I asked her if she is understanding it all. She said she gets MOST of it, but there's so much information all shoved at her at once. Which she knew this coming into it, so she's handling it well. She is in the top 25% of her class she says. She broke up with her boyfriend (also in the Navy but a short lived romance, he's in another state). He had gotten into a bit of trouble and she said with her security clearance she didn't want to be associated with anything like that. I think it was just a good excuse for her to end it. She's growing so much as a person it's awesome to see. We text on the weekends and if something interesting happened or i see a cool little facebook meme, then I'll send her a quick text to which she will respond. She says "everyone here says I act like a mechanic, what does a mechanic act like anyhow??" I have no idea! She's an EMN, so I don't know lol
