Me too Buffy!!! Keep up the positive vibes :) 

Thanks Tracy! 

You know what Buffy; it's all about the attitude; if you keep it positive, then the rest will follow. Years ago, I won't say how many, but it was while I was in college. The summer I went to Army R.O.T.C. advanced camp, near Seatle, WA. I was one of about nine people from my school attending. A friend, whom I actually thought was a better student than I was, and also thought would do better that summer than I would; went there with the attitude that this was going to be a very difficult summer with the challenges we'd be facing. Having gone to Marine Corps Officer Candidate School, the previous summer, which was very tough; I went to the Advanced Camp with the attitude that it would be a fun, and easy, inspite of the challenges. I had a great time, and excelled, that summer, in all that I did. The basic difference between the two of us was, I had a positive attitude, and his was fearful and negative. Whereas, I went on to complete the program and get my commision as Army Officer, he left the program, giving up on his dream to be an Army Officer; it's amazing the difference your attitude can make. As triaby said, "Keep up the positive vibes". :-)
