And what an honour to be chosen for the Feast of the Force.

I'm happy to ...A wonderful experience, Sharon. <br />I'm happy to see that you have a constant "date" with Italy every year! <br /><br />About me, don't know how much a military life can be a source of inspiration for a civilian but - however - I can say that, professionally and humanly, I'm very satisfied by my life. <br />I wake up every morning and I'm proud to wear our famous uniform, the one that fights financial illegality. <br />I wake up every morning and I'm happy to see my colleagues, my new family, because we are together 18 hours a day. <br />I love laughing with them, going out with them, going to parties, dinners in sophisticated restaurants where everyone recognizes us and feel respect for what we do. <br />I'm becoming more and more good at formal training (march, etc.) and I always reach the maximum score at the shooting range. <br />On September I'd like to start a karate course. <br /><br />Plus, two important events are going to change my life in few days: <br /><br />June 18th - we'll get our first rank (financier) and there'll be a ceremony with our parents where another officer will put the so-called "flames" (the symbol of the Force) on our shirt collars. A solemn event. <br /><br />June 23th - I'll take part to the Official Feast of the Force. I'm really honoured since the students of the 1st year are seldom called to take part to it. I'll wear a new uniform and I'll "shine" under the sun of a great ceremony located here:<br /><br />http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stadio_dei_Marmi<br /><br />What can I say more? At my age, it's pretty awesome. <br /><br />P.S. Italian version of KAT'S PRIDE is on my desk!Michelanoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7625290842452474467.post-59359085536566210902011-06-08T08:45:17.953+01:002011-06-08T08:45:17.953+01:00Aw, thanks for that, Lesa - I loved Malik, too.

Leave it up to your heroine to tame her sheikh. If he is anything like Malik in "The Desert King's Virgin Bride" he will be divine. Enjoy New York you lucky girl. Try and catch Diana Gabaldon (my OTHER fave romantic fiction author) she is speaking at the conference. Am still coming down off the high that was Sharon Kendrick's 2010 Writers course at the Watermill. Be very tempted people - it was an amazing week.

We may break 100 degrees (F) today.<br /><br />This past weekend, I attended one of those parties where everything just seems to click. The weather, the guests, the music, the food....and the drink, just seemed to combine into what was a beautiful, magical night under the stars. I had an incredible time.<br /><br />This weekend I'm off to visit an old friend who lives in Southern California. I haven't been there in a while and I'm looking forward to the trip.Dannoreply@blogger.com
