A Story.
A man fires a rifle for many years, and goes off to war.
When he comes home, he believes he is done with the rifle, and hands it in at the armouries.

But no mattar what else he might do with his hands... Love a Woman, build a house...change his son's diaper...

...His hands never forget the rifle...

-Jarhead

I've been thinking of this quote lately. And I hope it's not actually true, noit taken from some sort of quote...But I hope it is only a movie quote. A movie.

The Armed Forces called again. Called on Friday. Just another Recruiter, but that changed.

My choices: Infantry Soldier. Artillery Soldier. Armoured Soldier.

"Your first choice, Infantry Soldier, do you accept?"
"I accept."

I was hooked. December 4th is the day I get sworn in. I swear to be an Infanteer.

I leave for basic Training in January. I'm nervous but excited. I've been dreaming of this day for so long, and it's finally in the horizon.
On december 4th, Private Lynch will stand were Chris Lynch stood.

I'm a Soldier now.

Oct. 5th, 2007 @ 07:12 pm Three wooden crosses
A farmer and a teacher, a hooker and a preacher,
Ridin' on a midnight bus bound for Mexico.
One's headed for vacation, one for higher education,
An' two of them were searchin' for lost souls.
That driver never ever saw the stop sign.
An' eighteen wheelers can't stop on a dime.

There are three wooden crosses on the right side of the highway,
Why there's not four of them, Heaven only knows.
I guess it's not what you take when you leave this world behind you,
It's what you leave behind you when you go.

That farmer left a harvest, a home and eighty acres,
The faith an' love for growin' things in his young son's heart.
An' that teacher left her wisdom in the minds of lots of children:
Did her best to give 'em all a better start.
An' that preacher whispered: "Can't you see the Promised Land?"
As he laid his blood-stained bible in that hooker's hand.

There are three wooden crosses on the right side of the highway,
Why there's not four of them, Heaven only knows.
I guess it's not what you take when you leave this world behind you,
It's what you leave behind you when you go.

That's the story that our preacher told last Sunday.
As he held that blood-stained bible up,
For all of us to see.
He said: "Bless the farmer, and the teacher, an' the preacher;
"Who gave this Bible to my mamma,
"Who read it to me."

There are three wooden crosses on the right side of the highway,
Why there's not four of them, now I guess we know.
It's not what you take when you leave this world behind you,
It's what you leave behind you when you go.

There are three wooden crosses on the right side of the highway.

-Randy Travis




This song is one of my favourites. I think it's a very powerful song, If you have the means to download it and hear it, I strongly suggest you do.

Last night was beautiful. Danielle came over after cadets and she took my breath away. Seeing her just made me forget all my troubles, everything was just so perfect.

I love you so much Danielle, I hope you didn't get in trouble for coming home late. I'm still thinking about last night, it was so amazing.

It's been quite along while since my last post, so I thought I'd do a upgrade or two. So, enjoy!
Well, becoming the Infantry soldier I want to become is pretty hard. On October tenth is my medical and aptitude, so I'm hoping I get in. The medical is all I'm really worried about, because it's thorough and a full medical. the aptitude is just to make sure you're able to think. I just gotta spruce up on my fractions and long division.

Danielle is in University. I am so proud of her. I sure couldn't sit in a classroom and do that kind of work. I really think it's challenging, I truly admire her for doing it.

Come on, INFANTRY!

Well, I'm out
Chris

Jan. 8th, 2007 @ 04:03 pm For you, my love
Current Mood: In Love
Current Music: Every Love song I have
I swear by the moon and the stars in the sky
and I swear like the shadow that's by your side

I see the questions in your eyes
I know what's weighing on your mind
You can be sure I know my part
Cause I stand beside you through the years
You'll only cry those happy tears
And though I make mistakes
I'll never break your heart

Chorus
And I swear by the moon
And the stars in the sky I'll be there
I swear like the shadow that's by your side I'll be there
For better or worse
Till death do us part
I'll love you with every beat of my heart
And I swear

I'll give you every thing I can
I'll build your dreams with these two hands
We'll hang some memories on the wall
And when (and when) just the two of us are there
You won't have to ask if I still care
Cause as the time turns the page
My love won't age at all

And I swear (I swear) by the moon
And the stars in the sky I'll be there (I'll be there)
I swear (and I swear) like the shadow that's by your side
I'll be there (I'll be there)

For better or worse
Till death do us part
I'll love you with every beat of my heart
And I swear

And I swear (I swear) by the moon
And the stars in the sky I'll be there (I'll be there)
I swear (and I swear) like the shadow that's by your side
I'll be there (I'll be there)

For better or worse (better or worse)
Till death do us part I'll love you
With every single beat of my heart
I swear I swear I swear





Every now and then I get a little lost
My strings all get tangled, my wires all get crossed
Every now and then I'm right up on the edge
Dangling my toes out over the ledge
I just thank God you're here

'Cause when I'm a bullet shot out of a gun
'Cause when I'm a firecracker comin' undone
Or when I'm a fugitive ready to run, all wild-eyed and crazy
No matter where my reckless soul takes me
Baby you save me

It's hard lovin' a man that's got a gypsy soul
I don't know how you do it, I'm not sure how you know
The perfect thing to say to save me from myself
You're the angel that moves me like nobody else
And I thank God you do

'Cause when I'm a bullet shot out of a gun
When I'm a firecracker coming undone
When I'm a fugitive ready to run, all wild-eyed and crazy
No matter where my reckless soul takes me
Baby you save me

I know I don't tell you nearly enough
That I couldn't live one day without your love

When I'm a ship tossed around on the waves
Up on a highwire that's ready to break
When I've had just about all I can take
Baby you, baby you save me

When I'm a bullet shot out of a gun
When I'm a firecracker coming undone
When I'm a fugitive ready to run, all wild-eyed and crazy
No matter where my reckless soul takes me
Baby you save me




I Love you Danielle.

Well,
This new years was really awesome, I got to go to Danielle's house to spend it with her and her family. It was really fun, we watched countless movies that have formed a fear of mine to go on Planes( lol jk)

It was the best, looking side by side out the window at the fireworks, and laughing with her parents the next day. The cake was really good. Mmmmmm

It was a great night, it will be really hard to top it next year! Happy new year everybody!

With love,
Chrissssss

Dec. 21st, 2006 @ 09:26 am The Best night, That I could have asked for...
Current Location: Home:(
Current Mood: Great
Current Music: Rolling Stones
Last night, was amazing...

So the second the Danielle walked in and my parents right after her was a special moment. My dad loved her, and you could tell by the look he gave me...and the nudge he gave me.

We got out on the road and began talking. She had given me an awesome gift, one that infact I am listening to right now. I love it. It is the best gift she could have got me. :) I'm so happy.

The mall is not my place to be. It never is. But with Danielle their, it was amazing, We were laughing the whole way, and in the end it was only for a movie. I remember thinking..."I'm gonna get lost....I know it..." But we never did. She just took my hand, and walked. Side by side.

Then we went to the place of Irony, it was hilarious, We walked in, only to find that the only person serving was Julie. (Of all people) Afew entries ago, myself and julie were engaged in conflict, those of you who have not seen, feel free to take a look. Anyway, she was the only one serving, and I remember as the line was going down I couldn't stop smiling, It was just so ironic! I told myself to be nice, not rude, and don't mention anything. Just order and leave.

But as we were the next one's in line, a new line opened up, and we got to get served by this new guy. I was like, "THE IRONY!"

Then, as we sat down by our window seats, and eating our very greasy burgers, Danielle's song came on..."AND I WILL ALWAYS LOVE YOUooooooOOOOOOOOOooooooOOOO"

We had a good laugh over that. And it just happened to be the street their litle accident happened on. And their was a sign beside the street that siad "CAR ACCIDENT?" yet again....more irony.

We left McDonalds to rent Garfeild, and go back to her house and watch it on her laptop. we watched half the movie and the laptop kept acting up so we decided to drop me off back home...

...
...
...

:) So we got to my place and I got her some juice. We sat in the All-Glass room and looked up at the stars. It was amazing, we went over stories, and I loved having her there with me. Thanks for the great time Danielle, I loved it and had alot of fun,

I love you

Current Location: Home

Well,
Tonight I'm going out with danielle, shopping and possibly a movie. If we don't see one in town, then we are renting one....SWEET!
I'm really looking forward to this, because I can't spend too many nights going out and spending money, because I need a lot of money for the Cuba trip. AHHH!
So, I sucked up fire in the Vacuum, I was like "OH SHIT NO!" and took it outside and sucked up some cold winter air. yeah, that's my second "Bright moment" this year, aside from putting eggs in the deep freezer.

Well, I'll post tomorrow on how the date goes. C-ya's all!

Dec. 3rd, 2006 @ 08:47 pm My life...so far
Current Mood: Ticked alittle
Current Music: Satisfaction- Rolling Stones
OMG

I have a good one.

Okay, so friday I had to leave school early to go on the advance party for the cadet EXP this weekend. It was pretty cool to be picked up early by officers and taken out of school. Anyway...

So after arriving there and being there doing simple tasks in the deanery the staff (The rest arriving later) was pretty much on free time. I don't think I've ever felt so bored or excluded in my life. I don't fir in with the other staff(apart from Danielle) I do not feel asthough I am one of the staff. I have the power, why don't I feel like a staff cadet?

Anyway, as I explained in Newty's note, I realy craved some work to do. Work helps to take my mind of things, things that make me ponder. It makes me think of other things, such as getting the work done, or solving the world's problems in my head. I formulate dreams, goals, and feelings through working. It is when I get some of my best thinking done.

My Red Stars have taken a turn for the worst. They need to be taught a serious lesson in discipline. The sad thing is, I know that ssome of them have serious potential. But I know that I must choose one to scare the others with. I must choose one, pretty much rip his head off infront of everyone, to add the "fear element" into them. I hope I don't get CHAP'd.

The exercise went well, my Pun-cracking went well, I drove LT. MacMaster insane, and he chased me all over the place, and I punned Munroe right after the threatened me. It went as follows:

"Lynch, if you Pun one more time, I will give you a wedgy."

my response:

"Will it be 'Brief'?"

lmao. Told.

Yeah. Over and Out.

Nov. 23rd, 2006 @ 08:05 am Good night
Good night in cadets yesterday, we made some memories. I decided to give them my email, just because of the "friendship Persuit" the major wants us to do, so after writing down my email, I found out i did in permanent marker. Infront of the class, I was like "OOOOH SHIT!" they all laughed really long and hard as they watched me send cadets to get paper towel.

lol nice guys nice.

I have some people to forgive.

1. I have finally decided to forgive you of your foolish mistakes. I have decided to tear down the wall I put up between you and I. However I do not think many people will forgive you who live back here. Maybe it will put your mind at ease to know that I no longer feel hostile towards you. That you can talk to me on MSN again, and let me know how you're doing. I hope you get over your medical condition. However, yes I may let go of the hostile feelings, I still remember what happened and the way you acted. I would encourage you not to bring any of that up if you decide to talk to me.

2. I find it so cute how you think you screwed up. What you did at Aldershot, you did it for the better of us, to preserve our great friendship, that I will always cherish forever. Everytime I log on to LJ your the entry I look for most. I will always feel bound to you, and no matter where i go in life, you'll always be there and I swear, I will always be there for you, like the shadow by your side.
As time goes on we will figure out what we want, to be a couple or just friends. But I think we both know what's gonna happen:D:D:D
I will love you with all my heart, and regardless of what happens don't ever think that will change. I still care about you, and that was the cause of my mood, I tried to hide my feelings for you after the aldershot incident, and by covering it up it covered up the "Happy me". I don't ever want to fight with you, Nor do I want to hold grudges. The only thing I want to hold is you, and look into your eyes and see love. I think your amazing, and I will always support you and love you. I love you Danielle.
