Wow - it has been forever since an update, but what can be expected now that the Army controls my every living breath. What better to do then than write a journal entry at 0335 during CQ duty..?
This is only my "real" first night here at Ft. Leonard Wood but I feel like I have been here for a week. The first night I arrived wasn't all as bad as I had expected it to be. It sucked when they made us dump our bags we had brought - I didn't care about that, but when I had forgotten to get some stuff out of one of the pockets so the Drill Sergent yelled at me, asked if I was trying to hide stuff. That was a no - believe me, I want to stay under the radar not stand out. I was mad that they took and simply threw away my unopened vitamins and Bengay pain patches, I mean if we can't have them - got it - but they stored away our other personal stuff, why throw the new stuff out why not keep it away for later and give it back when we can have it?! Quick first impression break down - Female DS's SUCK. The males on the other hand, which I thought I'd be more frightening aren't really bad at all - almost nice!? Example: DS Scott (female) woke up our entire bay tonight because the Fire Guard wasn't hadn't/weren't doing what they were assigned to do when she came in for a walk through.
I was personally yelled at for the first time today too...claimed I was talking in the chow line but it didn't bother me too much because well I was the only one the DS directed his comments to, and something tells me I wasn't going crazy and just talking to myself....?
I'm sure I could write more and more for days at a time, but I'm so tired and I gotta figure out how to keep myself awake!!
