But yeah. I never post on here.
Anyway, I suppose this is sort of a long-term sign off. Sort of...long overdue. Yup.
I graduated on Saturday, so I'm a college graduate now. Final GPAs a 3.75. w00t. Something I've worked on for a long, long time. Crazy.
I commissioned on Friday. Something I've also worked on for a while, for which I've lost countless hours of sleep, endured weeks of physical pain, sweated, and bled. So yeah. I'm finally Jeffrey Clement, 2nd Lieutenant, United States Marine Corps. Crazy again. I'm still down in Atlanta, working at the ROTC unit on the logistics for next year's Freshman Indoctrination.
Plans for now? I don't report to my next command until October, so I'm hangin' out in Raleigh for a bit, doing home repair again and possibly the 3am shift at RDU for UPS. Then Alison and I are getting married in June, and I'll move up to DC, working for someone (current offers for EVS Movers and City Sports, still holding out for something that would use my degree, if only for three months) and then report to Quantico, VA in October.
I leave Quantico in like...March/early April for a few weeks of specialization training, and then to my final posting. So yeah...could be anywhere in the world by next July. w00t!
