I'll start us off, my name is Nicole, i'm almost 16 years old, I was born in December. I was raised in Illinois, I find it pretty much the most boring state in the world! My mom passed away of cancer when I was 3, and my dad recently disowned me, so I live with my Grandma. I grew up with alot of pets, I have 3 labrador retrievers, one of each color, brown, black, and white, and two cats. I have loved horses my entire life, and when I get older I intend on getting one, because riding is my favorite past time. I graduate highschool next year, my junior year, because i'm getting my credits this summer, then i'm enlisting in the Navy, and i'm currently thinking I want to go the route of Navy Diver. I have a boyfriend in the Navy, though we're currently on "break"(this will change i'm hoping) and he's an OS(operations specialist), I call him C(on here at least). He's also trying for SEALS. He's in A school now, which he's pretty excited about. We've been together about 3 months now, and we've known eachother for quite awhile. I have done numerous sports in my lifetime. I have done gymnastics, cheerleading, tennis, golfing, and I have been doing MMA(Mixed Martial Arts) for awhile now, I love it. I also do modeling for a local modeling agency. I'm definitely a people person, and I love making new friends(: That's me!

This is the coolest!
Major props girl! You can do it! I hope MEPS goes well for you!
I wish I was already graduated and could be on my way to MEPS! -

I know, that's why I kinda figured, ehh, I'll probably not come across with a girl who also has a man in the Navy..but hey, here you are! Me and my bf are currently on "break" but we still consider ourselves commited to each other. So we'll see what happens(:
You can do the ASVAB, no issues(: I wouldn't worry! I know how you feel though, i'm studying like crazy too!! I'm also considering AIRR(: Do you have a FB? if so, go ahead and add me facebook.com/nicoleleex3

Hhaha, me either, but I grew up around cars, so I should be at least okay with basics.
I plan on signing with parent permission next december, when i turn 17, i turn 16 this december. I am a sophomore right now, and i'm graduating after junior year, getting all my credits early. so then i'm taking the 7 months or so to get really really ready, focus on just having a job and hitting the gym daily, just to get in shape and be ready for this. Hoping to leave around my 18th birthday(: December of 2012 -

I'm Tiffany and I'm 21. I was born in a small town in Michigan but I now live in Oklahoma. I've only lived here for about 3 years now. My parents divorced when I was younger. I have 3 sisters and 1 brother. I don't currently have any pets. I love to sing and I do it all the time. I miss the winters back home. I love bright colors. I work at a health and wellness spa. I have the most wonderful and supportive family and friends in the world! This does include my boyfriends family as well. They are all amazing as well! I played many sports in high school and I love to watch football and UFC. MICHIGAN STATE! :) I'm creative and I'm always crocheting or working on small project. I've mad a couple photo collages lately. I met my boyfriend on my 21st bday back in March. We'll ball him BM. :) We've been inseperable ever since. We met though some friends. We've been together 7 months officially as of yesterday. He's my better half. He enlisted in the Navy a month before we met. And I've been supportive of it since I met him because that's what he wanted to do, and from my call last week and letters he's really liking it. I'm excited to get to see him again. Only 28 days until his PIR 11/05/10! He's in Air Traffic Control. He's my world and I wouldn't change him for anything. Even with him being so far away he makes me smile just thinking about him and the day I'll get to see him again. :)
