NAME: kenneth kipper karlyle.
AGE: twenty-three.
HOMETOWN: ithica, new york.
ZODIAC SIGN: taurus but it doesn't matter.
MARITAL STATUS: married.
I WAS SORT OF A CRAZY RECKLESS TEENAGER, I FEEL BAD FOR MY PARENTS WHEN I LOOK BACK IN IT BUT THEY SEEM TO THINK I'M A GOOD ENOUGH KID. WE WEREN'T BORN RICH. MY PARENTS AND ME, MY BROTHER AND SISTER- WE HAD TO WORK FOR EVERY THING WE EVER WANTED AND MOST OF WHAT WE NEEDED AND THAT WAS JUST THE WAY WE WERE EXPECTED TO LIVE. MY PARENTS ARE SERIOUSLY THE SWEETEST PEOPLE- THEY'RE A LITTLE OLDER, YOU KNOW. MORE OUT OF TOUCH WITH THE GENERATION BUT THEY'RE A LOT OF WHY I DO EVERYTHING I DO. TO MAKE THEM PROUD, YOU KNOW. BE THAT GOOD SON I'M SURE THEY'VE ALWAYS WANTED. MY BEST FRIEND GROWING UP'S NAME WAS KENYON- WE DID EVERYTHING TOGETHER, RIGHT UNTIL THE END.
WE WERE SO FUCKING STUPID, BUT AS SOON AS WE WERE OLD ENOUGH WE ENLISTED INTO THE ARMY WITH THE BUDDY PROGRAM- MOSTLY BECUASE WE COULD STAY TOGETHER THROUGH BASIC. HONESTLY THE BIGGEST MISTAKE OF MY LIFE, BUT I'M STUCK IN IT NOW. I WAS SEVENTEEN YEARS OLD AND IN THE FUCKING ARMY RUNNING UNTIL I PUKED EVERY DAY, AND EVEN THOUGH I WASN'T THE SMARTEST KID- I WASN'T STUPID ENOUGH TO KNOW THAT COLLEGE WASN'T THE BETTER DEAL. AFTER BASIC I WAS STATIONED IN LONDON FOR A YEAR, IT SUCKED AND IT WAS RAINY. THE FOOD WAS REALLY TERRIBLE AND THE ENGLISH REALLY DO HAVE BAD TEETH. THAT'S ABOUT IT.
I ASK KAI TO MARRY ME RIGHT AFTER MY MOM DIES FROM BREAST CANCER. I’M TWENTY-ONEAND GOT MY DEPLOYMENT NOTICE IN THE MAIL. SHE DOESN’T KNOW ABOUT IT BECAUSE I DON’T HAVE THE HEART TO TELL HER. WE BOTH KNOW FIFTY THOUSAND DOLLARS ISN’T WORTH THE YEAR OVER THERE WITH OUT HER, BUT I TAKE THE ADVANE ANYWAYS. I PURCHASE MY GEAR AND I SPEND THE REST ON AN ENGAGEMENT RING I COULDN’T AFFORD BUT KNEW SHE DESERVED. I PUT ASIDE A FEW MORE DOLLARS FOR A WEDDING. WE WERE ONLY MARRIED OFFICIALLY FOR TWO WEEKS BEFORE I LEFT, AND THAT WAS THE LAST TIME I’VE SEEN HER SINCE. THE FIRST TOUR WAS HARD, BUT WE MAKE IT THROUGH AND AFTER THAT WE GO TO GERMANY FOR A YEAR. SHE LIVES WITH ME, AND THINGS AREN’T AS GOOD AS BEFORE BUT THEY’RE ALRIGHT AND SHE’S STILL THE MOST BEAUTIFUL WOMAN I’VE EVER SEEN. I START THINKING ABOUT HAVING KIDS, THEN I GET MY SECOND DEPLOYMENT LETTER. I’M PISSED.
THINGS I LOVE.
