proud to be an army brat!!!!!!!1

havin done wid my first semester of MBA suddenly reality has struck me big time...
I am goin to be in the corporate sector soon and will cease to be a fauji kid, a title which gimes me immense pride n joy.
Being an army officers daughter the fauji culture is a part and parcel of my life which all the army kids consider their birthright.
But seriously, some encounters with many non defence people( read civilians) leaves me bewildered sometimes because the slight mention of the word ' army' leaves them gasping and they ruthlessly call us 'The Army Brats'.
The reason why we are called so is still ambiguous but as far as i can guess its because of certain vibes that we give out which they find different.
But they wont ever understand wat it means to change 10 schools in ones schooling life of 14 years, making new frends every year and saying goodbyes too soon.How difficult it is to adapt to a new place, alien environment and complete strangers.
Despite all this we are always welcome to new challenges and never ru out of energy to evplore new avenues.
We are brought up with values which we shall never part with, we are a small part of an organisation where ones fellowmen are brothers and where service is before self....
and if all of this makes 'Army Brats'...I am really proud to be one.
