Profile Information:

A little about me:: My name is lucy and I am 19 years old. I am supporting my fiancé Alan who is completing aircrew school right now in Pensacola, Florida. :) We met 8 years ago and have been dating for 4 years. He recently propsed at the O'hare airport in Chicago. My love graduated from RTC November 23. It was amazing seeing him then and for the holidays! I can't wait to find out when i'll see him again!

"There are millions of people in this world, but in the end it all comes down to one. I still panic sometimes, forget to breathe, but I know that there's something beautiful in my imperfections; the beauty that he held up for me to see. The strength that I will never be able to say." <3
I am here to support my: Spouse/Significant other
Stage of (Sailor’s) Navy career?: Enlisted
When I heard “Navy,” I...: Was proud and encouraged it
The Navy offers opportunities that...: I miss you so much, I need you right now
I try to stay strong but some days I just don’t know how.
The weeks seem like months, and months like years.
I try to hold them back, but down flow the tears.
I keep myself busy through out the day
And when I am alone at night I just pray.
I pray you stay safe while your serving over seas.
At night while I sleep I see you in my dreams.
I think of happier times when you were here
When I could kiss your lips and hold you near.
I miss your smile and your warm embrace
When I see your name on the caller ID my heart begins to race.
Your in all that I see and everything I do
I cant wait till you come back and its just me and you.
So baby stay strong and I will do the same
Because to give up on a love like this would just be a shame.
.:always let your sailor know that he has your heart and love him with all the love God allows us to offer!
Our Navy experience so far...: It was positive and maturing. Our relationship has grown stronger.

Yeah he signed up for 4 years...8 years is a long time your a strong girl! Is he graduating from A school?? And congratulations that is so exciting you get to see him for thanksgiving.. I have no clue when i'll see him next, he left yesterday which was rough... He was on a ten day leave after A school and now hes in norfolk, thatll be his permanent station but I guess he might be stopping in a few places around the u.s. And then the cruiser leaves in march for a few months... Soo he told me he heard theres a slight possibility he might be home for christmas but hes not for sure about it... Are you planning on moving near your sailors base?

I really mean it thats so great how close you are and how in love you two are. I ty otally agree about growing stronger dan's made me such a better person and im so thankful I lucky I have such a great boyfriend and I can tell u feel the same way abur yours. It was much harder to go through a school than boot camp, I was able to talk to him texting and he was able to call pretty much every night. It was much easier. After A school ull find out where his permanent base will be. I dont know about marriage yet,but I want to move nearhis home base but im playing the waiting game because I dont graduate from school til october next year, but I obviously dont want to wait that long.. So its frustrating.. But yeah it really is cool were the same age cuz we can relate so much more

Emily (Dan's Girlfriend)

Hes undesignated.. A school for him was about a month and a half I dont know if that varies or not. Anyway, if your wanting to move by him definitely wait til hes done with a school and is positive about where his home base will be than I would start looking into schools that area... Im trying to find out if I can transfer to a school by him... Its frustrating cuz he isnt shipping out til march so all this time til then I feel like im wasting by being back in wisconsin, when I could be near him. I hope that helps a little like I said a school is a breeze to bc u can actually talk on the phone whenever hes not on duty or sleeping or at a meeting, itll all go smooth. Im excited for you two, congratulations once again, I hope that helps a little. Whats your boyfriends signed up for?

Hope you have fun at the graduation. I know you're excited to see him :)

Bryanna

Aw that's so cute. I can't wait to see Zack. This holiday is really hard for me this year since I lost my 14 year old cousin and Zack isn't here to help me. I'm hoping to hear from him soon but I still haven't gotten anything. I heard that he may need stamps because they don't provide them. Did you have to send Alan stamps or did he get his own? Should I send him some?

Nov 24, 2011
Bryanna

I'm trying to stay happy but its just so hard. I don't think Zack knows to buy stamps. Tell Alan thank you. I may just send him some just in case. Better safe than sorry haha. My family has been telling everyone that I'm depressed. Its not that I'm depressed I just miss my cousin and Zack being gone makes it harder. I am trying my best to stay strong.

He proposed! :) what a sweetheart...did it at the airport! I love my
Fiancé!!! Ooo it feels perfect saying that.

Nov 25, 2011
Bryanna

I am trying to keep a smile on my face for the both of them and I agree with you God wouldn't put us through it if he didn't think we could do it. I got my first letters today!! I am so excited I have read them at least 3 times today. It feels so good to finally hear from him. I even helped clean the house with a smile on my face, haha I hate doing that. I actually have two envelopes of letters to send out this time since I didn't get to mail some out this past week. And he asked for pictures so of course I put some in there too. I did like you said and sprayed them with my perfume. And congratulations on the engagement!! I'm so happy for you! I know you are very happy

Hey I am glad you had a good time at PIR. And I see you are now a FUTURE MRS. SAILOR!!! <3 I am very happy for you!

Hey, actually my husband and I are from San Francisco so we got married out there. The ceremony was at a country club. I forget the name and the reception was held at a friends garden.

Nov 29, 2011
bella [mrs. ae2]

Haha! One: DONT STRESS!! It is very hard to plan a wedding when you dont know when your SO will even be home! I planned our wedding in 2 weeks! I asked for a military discount everywhere we went and most places accomidated us. Me and my mom and grandma and aunts did everything ourselves. We rented all the tables, linens, chairs. the dollar store has TONS of tea light candles. lol. Really it will be your dream wedding no matter what. And his. I would say the only part I really remember about our wedding was the dancing, the speaches and the cake cutting. Those were the important parts for me. Our first and Last dance and cutting the cake I wanted to be very romantic and they were all on their own. We danced to L.O.V.E. by Nat King Cole for our first dance (one of our many songs) and we danced to the cinderella song for our last dance. Anyways, point being, focus on what you want to be special and the rest will fall into palce. :) We got all of our stuff from craft stores and our cake was from a grocery store. We had my uncle DJ us and a family friend marry us. I think the more personal and intimate everything is, the better time you will have. Plus its cheaper hahah :)

You should post a pic of the ring, I wanna see :) I do feel better now that I've heard from him. I got another letter on Monday that he wrote on Thanksgiving. He said that its getting easier. He does not like down time though because he is constantly thinking about everyone here and it makes him even more homesick. Everything has been going wrong for me lately. I have a severe infection in my tooth which has caused my face to swell up really bad. I haven't been able to go to school so I'm hoping my professors will understand and let me make up everything. I am also having surgery on December 16 to have my thyroid completely removed and it is my first time staying in the hospital overnight. I also went to the ER for the first time today and I was so scared. I wish Zack was here to help me but he isn't.

Dec 1, 2011
Bryanna

So yesterday I got my first phone call from Zack!! I am so happy. I wish I could smile the biggest smile ever but a swollen face just won't allow it. It was so good to hear his voice. :)

Dec 5, 2011

Bryanna

Yes I do! I didn't think I could love someone this much. I think this has made both of us stronger. I'm hoping to get a phone call before my surgery since I didnt get a call last week. He said he would try to call depending on when he has watch. He goes to connecticut after basic.

Dec 17, 2011
Bryanna

I bet it is. I usually don't like surprises but im sure I would like that kind of surprise. So where does he go to A school

Dec 18, 2011
Bryanna

Awww yeah. I wish zack was going somewhere closer to here. Do you know how long he will be there

Dec 18, 2011
Bryanna

Yeah haha. I know the feeling. I told Zack im putting myself through this because I love him haha. He has to do sub school and a school so he will probably be there for a year also.

Dec 18, 2011
Noemi(Ship 12, DIV 054)Colin<3

I got to see one of his pictures on his DIV today it made my Xmas so much better. Oh and wanted to Wish u a marry xmas and a happy new year :)

Dec 26, 2011
Bryanna

Aww haha you're so lucky! I wish I could see Zack. It's driving me crazy! His mom went up there for Christmas and spent the day with him. I am glad he got to call me and text me but it still wasn't enough. I cried during our last phone call and I feel so bad because I'm sure it made him feel bad. I just keep reminding myself that its only 11 more days till I see him again. I hope you enjoy your time with Alan, I'm sure you will. I hope you guys had a great Christmas also.

Dec 26, 2011
Bryanna

Thank you Lucy. That helped me a lot. I'm glad to have someone to talk to that understands. I hope you and Alan have a great new years :)

Dec 28, 2011
Bryanna

Thank you! And I'm here for you too. I'm not as good with advice as you are but I will certainly try. Make the best of tonight. I know you're probably not looking forward to seeing him go but at least you have more communication now. And pretty soon you guys will be together again. :) My journey to Chicago begins Wednesday, I'm getting nervous about seeing him again. I hope you and Alan had a great New Years. Tell him thank you for being a sailor.

Jan 1, 2012
Bryanna

My New Years was okay. It would have been nice to have Zack here to share it with me haha. I'm glad you guys had a great New Years. I am very very excited. I think I will have fun. I just wish he wasn't leaving for Connecticut the next day. But I'm glad we get to talk more. :) I'm very excited for this trip. Do you have any suggestions on what to do while we're there?

Jan 1, 2012
Bryanna

I wish I could just cuddle with him all day but our parents are going to be there, so we will probably have very little alone time. And from what I heard sailors aren't allowed to even hold hands with their girlfriends in public and if another sailor sees them then they get reported and punished when they get back on base. I think that's just weird. Haha. But I will definitely try to take a lot of pictures. I thought about ice skating since we both love it.
