Going Home, Mo' Money and Wonderful Friends

I have a 4 day weekend this weekend and I am going home. A cousin of mine is getting married on Saturday so I will get to see a lot of my family which will be nice. Am I excited about going home, Yes. Am I homesick, No. I have only been in the Air Force for 6 weeks now but I really like it and I am looking forward being an officer for at least the next 4 years.

I went to the finance office yesterday to ask some questions cause I thought I wasn't getting paid enough and low and behold they hadn't been paying me all I was supposed to get. Not that I deserve more but I'll definitely take it! They had left out 300 dollars out of each pay check so far. Which is a pretty significant amount. The only reason I caught was because a girl in my class had told me what her last paycheck was and it was 300 dollars more than mine and we should've been getting the same. Anyway... I will be getting my money.

The weekend after I get back from the Labor Day break, two guys in my class have told me they want to go to church with me. Even though it is hard living amongst non-Christians it is rewarding and humbling at the same time when God uses me to reach them. I couldn't do it by myself. The encouragement I receive from friends and family at home is awesome. And the encouragement I receive from my new online friends is awesome too. I thank God everyday for the wonderful people He has put in my life to help me continue to live for Him.
