    I just seriously want to thank you for being such a strong, positive woman. I honestly believe God wanted me to watch this video tonight. You see, I am currently in that fresh military wife funk right now. But after watching you, I am motivated to "break the rules." I go to school full-time heading into my last year until I graduate with my B.S and I am a newly wed. I was working full-time the first couple months of marriage but I became too overwhelmed and I let that defeat me. Thank you for your videos, God bless you and your husband. I wish you both the best :)

      I am so glad I could encourage you through this video! I know it can seem so hard sometimes! I will pray for your strength and your pursuit in a degree! That is very exciting! God Bless! P.S where are you guys stationed in Washington??

      Thank you so much. Over the last past week, I can see the difference in motivation I have to even just get up in the morning to make coffee for my husband. Thank you for your prayers! P.S we are stationed in Bremerton/Silverdale WA. on the Naval Bases.

    I'm so happy that I found your channel! Because for a while I have been wanting to help my girlfriend with how she's been feeling recently with the whole separation thing ( I'm Navy too lol ) I just wanted to find someone she could kind of relate to. So she could see that she's not the only one feeling the way she feels. But we have both loved your videos! Keep up the great work and stay safe with your Sailor

    I just found your channel and I needed this video. My fiancé just joined the army and I recently graduated with my BA. I have been really down lately concerned that I was going to have to give up my career goals to support my fiancé. You’ve made me look at the whole situation in a different way. Thank you so much!!

    I'm in the middle of my sophomore year in college and my fiancé just enlisted I don't know what to do with school ....

    • @BritCon2
      @BritCon2  8 років тому +9

      If he just enlisted you won't be able to be with him for a few months anyways. Plus since you guys aren't married he can't live off base. Stay your sophomore year and if you can transfer to another school next year do that. But that just depends on how often he will be gone next year. Take it a day at a time.

    When I first started watching you it was videos of your younger self like this one and I thought “ I cannot watch this girl!” 😂😂😂 i think it was just the maturity difference or something but now I just think you’re so funny and adorable and knowledgeable and smart and all good things 😂😘

    I plan on getting married soon to my boyfriend (both are 21)who just got to his first duty station a few months ago. We know that we’re young (I’ve heard it from multiple people sadly haha but it’s we both know that it just feels...right)I just graduated with my associates degree in social science (elementary education) but realized that isn’t the career I want to go into. I really want to work once we get married but I’m not quite sure of what to do work wise. Do you have any advice??

    Thank you for this!!! I am in my senior yr of college now while my boyfriend is away at basic training & then tech school. It works perfect right now because we are both pretty much focusing on ourselves while preparing for the future. I am very career oriented so upon moving with him I am not comfortable with just not working. Whether it be a money issue or not, I enjoy it and want too work! I need to utilize the degree I paid for 😂People keep acting like that's not going to work out for me though while being a MILSO.. so thank you again. I needed to hear this ❤❤

    • @BritCon2
      @BritCon2  7 років тому

      @BritCon2  3 роки тому +1

      Cheyenne Allen I don't think so. However there are a lot of good online colleges! And for the military person, it will be paid for.

      Wendy Consoli I guess you missed the whole point of this video... where I have a job.

    • @reneebreckler9970
      @reneebreckler9970 5 років тому

      Wendy Consoli look you don’t know how hard it is to be a military wife. So you can just shut it. I love myself way to much to settle for a stupid low paying job that won’t work around my hours. That’s way I became a cosmetologist. But my license won’t switch to this state. I would love to work and go do my own things but unfortunately my husband can’t afford a car to get to work so who’s car is he using mine. You know what if you have children and want to stay home that is ok and you shouldn’t worry about other people life’s. Staying home all day taking care of kids is a lot harder then you think. I honestly would rather drop them off at a daycare and work but sometimes it’s better financially for the women to stay home. Btw again if you are not a military wife. Shut your trap because you don’t know a damn thing about what goes on in are life’s.
