Sooooo, let's see. First off, what's good everyone?? I know, it's been a long ass time since I've been here, but it's good to be back and I guess I have plenty I can write about now. So as everyone knows, I've been away in South Carolina doing training for the army. It's actually been the time of my life here. I've met some of the coolest people here and I only have about a month left so I am trying to meet some more while I'm here. I shipped out to basic training June 17th, and as soon as I got there, I immediately thought, "What the hell did I get myself into?" I've never experienced anyone yelling at me, rushing me like that in my life. That night had to be the worst night of my life with constant push ups, no sleep, and hardly any time to eat. Yeah, the rumors are true. You really get like 3 minutes to eat. But basic training proved to be the complete opposite of that night. I really did some things I would never do if I wasn't in the military, for example, exposing myself to gas. 30 seconds, 20 seconds, the time didn't matter to me. That was really the only thing I was worried about goin into basic training and it ended up being one of the more fun things I did. It's hilarious to see everyone coming out with the face of death, snot, spit, throwup hangin from their face. It really is a bad feeling, but I made it without dying. But yeah, Basic Training was pretty fun. Now I'm in AIT which is the school for my job in the army, and it's not bad at all. Everyone is pretty cool, and there's no drill sergeants here so we aren't getting smoked every time something is done wrong. I'm actually doing pretty good in class too. It seems like I care more about school here because I'm actually awarded if I do good. That's why I'm pushing myself here I guess. I graduate from basic training on October 29th, and I will be home that night. To everyone at home; be ready for a crazy ass weekend that weekend. Alright, I'm outta here. It's nice to keep you all updated.
P.S.: I have my phone now, so don't be scared to text me, even though it will only be after 5 everyday except the weekends.
