My posts are kind of few and far between right now (mainly because not much is going on) but once I start basic I'll be writing my roommate and asking to post updates for me so this site should stay current.
We had another future soldier training today. We broke up into 4 teams and played softball. Each team played 2 games and my team won both of them. It was fun overall. I think what I enjoy the most from our future soldier training is not the actual sports we play but getting to know the other soldiers. It's exciting to get together with other people who have the same goals and are all training for the same purpose. When I go to these training days it makes me want to ship out right now. I have 50 days left. I'm sure that, in reality, the time will go by very quickly but right now it feels like 2 Nov will never get here.
There are only a couple of other things to update on...first, I told my work that I would be shipping out in a couple of months with the Army and they fired me. Yes, you heard right - they fired me. I asked them if I did anything wrong and they said absolutely not. I was a good employee but they wanted someone who could give them a long term committment. So now they're leaving a future soldier without any kind of income 2 months before I ship out. Sounds kind of like a cheap deal to me. Anyway, I'm not bitter. The Lord will provide.
Secondly, my roommates and I are planning a trip to Oregon the first week of Oct so if there are any OR readers out there who want grab some coffee while I'm in town then just let me know.
Lastly, I'm adding a couple pictures from our last future soldier training, but if you want to see more I have them on my facebook.
