    Oh, and yes, I have PT in the morning.

    Had PT monday morning, PT tomorrow morning, and this morning was a PT test. I think they scheduled that shit because of easter. My bad for enjoying a ton of peeps and two huge friggin' easter dinners.

    Results on PT test:

    2minutes: 60push
    2minutes: 60sit
    2mile: 14:45

    I'm coming down with some kind of tonsilitis or something...usually, though, I run just like a 14-0 in the 2mile.

    My sit and push, I hit 60 and stopped, my grader was like "You've got like 45 seconds left (on each)" I was like "Yeah, but...I passed, and I know I don't have enough to max. 60's better than I did last time, and I'm satisfied seeing as this doesn't really count for anything for me..."

    if you want to get the branch of your choice, better hit that 300 or higher.

    what do you want to branch?

    BLOC? Cadet terms, please...

    BLOC = Basic Leader's Officer Course, you will do this once or if you comission.


    Are you having doubts about ROTC? Can I ask what they are?

    I will assure you that the real military life is nothing like what ROTC Command makes it out to be.

    If you really want to know and get some extra money in your pockets, you should join the Guard, and goto basic summer and pick 11b for your mos so you would be back in time for school. You'd get paid while training, you'd get the first half of your bonus, and you'd get the g.i. bill and a kicker while in school, and it's only 1 weekend a month and 2 weeks in the summer....I did it, and it wasn't all that bad, it made me hate ROTC that much more....but I got more money than the contracted and scholarshiped cadets got....but you kind of see the silver lining in all the crap rotc sometimes feeds you

    Alright...

    My doubts? Not so much doubts. I just hate being in the corps because they lock me down at 7 at night, and I have an 11pm bedtime. I'm 21...and I have a curfew. That's...crap...

    I don't know, I guess I just want more of a college life than a military academy student's life...

    I remember doing the max for push-ups and sit-ups with 30 seconds remaining and they told me to keep going. I told my Platoon SGT, "Go eat a dick, we both know I can't run for shit with this bad knee".

    He was my friend and we worked well together in the motorpool, so I got away with it. HAHA
