(Yeah, just like the show.)

Who's having the best week ever? That'd be me. Well, probably not the best week ever, but definitely the best week since being in Oklahoma. Monday and Tuesday was full of escape and evation tactical stuff. Basically we spent Monday learning hand-to-hand combat with an M-16, low crawl, high crawl, rush and roll, and ( Read more... )

Oklahoma's been pretty good. Very hot, and surprisingly humid. Getting up to about 100 this weekend. Work is ok, except having to be up and ready to go by about 0715. There are 40 cadets here. Actually about 3 from SC, even one from Lexington who goes to Clemson. It's kinda cool hearing about other Dets and how they're run -- the similarities ( Read more... )

Summer's been good. Lots of relaxing. GSSM graduation was fun, to say the least. Finished The Fountainhead. I didn't like the long, 3-pg philosophical speeches. But other than the few of those, the book was alright. Started 20,000 Leagues Under The Sea, book #3 of the summer. Sat and read out on the dock for about an hour today. Getting ( Read more... )

1. I ended up with all As except one B in chemistry. Somehow, I got exactly 800 out of the possible 1000 points in chem, just barely making a B ( Read more... )

So after nearly having a mental breakdown during finals week, I'm glad to be back home, sort of. My streak of bad luck has only continued since coming home though. I found out that my license really is suspended, but not just in Georgia. Turns out that in GA, if you're 21 and you get a ticket that puts 4 points on your license, then your license ( Read more... )

It's currently 4:30am; I just got back in from my amazing last night here at UGA before summer. Tonight was awesome -- FASA dinner for Cinco de Mayo, pregaming, Krush Girls, then food at IHOP. Back in my dorm, I can now think about the night and reflect on my freshmen year. In less than 12 hours, I'll be headed back to Charleston. It's such a ( Read more... )

The apathy only seems to grow.

and they haven't even started yet. Today's reading day. I've been "studying" calculus for a few hours, although it's not exactly a subject one can study. So I've just looked over all my notes and worked problems from old tests. I have no motivation whatsoever. I should be able to get an A in that class. Below are my predictions/necessary exam ( Read more... )

So for ROTC, I have to spend 3 weeks at an Air Force Base for a program called Rising Sophomore Program (RSP). Basically I'd spend the time following around an officer seeing how bases work and stuff like that. Well I found out that I'd be going to Charleston AFB, which sucks since it's nothing new. But I just found out that my plans have ( Read more... )
