K-K-Korea =)
Well well... I haven't posted since I left Ft Huachuca. That could be because I'm either lazy, boring, both, or neither. Ha Ha. I'll instead save you the trouble and simply say neither. I'm not really one to go on and on about myself or what I do every day, but here I have the graciousness of anonymity. Well, not so much any more. At first I ( Read more... ) -
Christmas
During college I was really cynical about the holdiay season. I was of the great opinion that it was nothing more than a great and powerful materialistic gambit designed and perpetuated by the consumer driven industry.

Tales of Basic: Part 2
Moving on with the retelling of my BCT experience...
Oct 4 2005 The First PT Test and Hydration FormationBright and early Monday morning we took our first PT test which was a 1-1-1 assessment. What that means is that we had one minute each for pushups and situps, and had to run one mile in under 8:30. I passed the first two events, but failed to ( Read more... ) -
Tales of Basic: Part one
Well, I said I'd keep a journal...wait did I say that here.... *shrug* I don't rightly remember. It's been quite a while since I've been behind the screen, I've just gotten out from under the hat. The drill sergeant hat that is. I left basic training three days ago, and I'm back in Tennessee. As to how I should do my journal here I wonder if I ( Read more... )
