Regent, Film, and the Iraq War

Well,  the first semester is complete!!!  Whew, who would have thought I would have survived this first semester.  As a student in the Communication and Arts program (with an emphasis in Cinema and Television) who would have thought I would have made it.  The program can be very grueling at times!! 

Since the Iraq War began and I happened to become a MoM (three times over since then) and that became my most important duty.While the other half of our family had IA's, deployments, workups, and much more I became the foundation.  The foundation should be steady, solid, and secure, RIGHT?  Well I can tell you sometimes the foundation was not as steady, solid but soft at times, and secure but insecure with all of the thoughts, fears, and anticipation one feels when one has to face all that these situations that get placed upon the individuals and the families.

So this is the 1st semester I have made it through since the IRAQ WAR.  Since the war I either had to withdrawl from college or forgo it as my PLATE became ever full.  So, who knows who is reading this because I don't have any subscribers and I write it mainly for myself......The blog gives me a voice as a mother, military spouse, student, and a christian.

In closing, all I really wanted to say is THANK YOU Regent for the support, guidance, and love that I have felt as I have finally received some PEACE since this journey from the war and back and to the film school began.......I MADE IT THROUGH the semester! YIPPEE!!!
