My summer

During the past 6 weeks I have been yelled at, I have been trained, I have been dirtier and sweatier than I've been in my whole life, I have been turned into an Air Force Cadet.

haha, they're not treating me too badly. I get picked on a lot because my last name is hard to pronounce and because I went to school in Sweden, but I'm having a lot of fun here. The worst they do to me is yell at me or make me do pushups. My summer home was great, just way too short. And I definitely didn't get sent here. I wanted to come here.

Hope you're having a good summer!

Wow Alex, this is all really amazing. It's incredible that you can handle this, I don't think many girls could. If you can do this, you can do anything. You're one of those people that can say they've had a fufilling and exciting life. I hope you're happy, I hope you're meeting a lot of good people, and I hope that you'r enjoying yourself. You're working hard, and it's going to pay off and I know that everyone is so proud of you. I'm so glad you updated, this really gives me an idea what you've been through!
Keep them comin'

There were photagraphers documenting every day of our basic training and posting it on a website so that parents could get a better idea of what their kids were going through. Since we could only communicate through letters, I know my family really appreciated it.

Alexandra! How wonderful to see you haven't forgotten us, the little people.

And your comrades; so many women! You must be having the time of your life. I envy you; over here there's only one among the värnpliktiga, and she does Vakt o Insats. Which means that my entire squadron is male! Sniffing testosterone gets really old, really fast. Believe me.

Make sure you care for your hygiene, some of those soldiers looked decidly smelly. I wouldn't have you catch anything nasty.
