Make sure you tell the sand fleas I said, "Hi!"

And give your SDI a big hug and tell him/her you can't wait to spend the next 13 weeks with them!!

On a serious note good luck and we'll talk to you again on Nov 21 or so.

I just hope I don't mess up too horribly. I don't care about TV or anything. I'm just worried about my PFT scores and stuff.

Eh- i'm nervous.... but I'm not going to worry about it. I'll just do my best. And you're going to get yelled at whether or not you mess up. So relax. Enjoy the last few hours of freedom.

Yeah, I have five more months of freedom left. But my brother goes with you guys. He'll be in Parris Island tomorrow with you lucky bastards. Good luck, and I'm sure some of you will meet my bro, he's a good kid. Here's to picking up rank in basic and learning a lot!

Lucky? What are you smoking?

God...to be able to go back as a civilian for just one day...Maybe not necessarily the nastiness of civilian life...but the freedom...

Achped my younger brother........you never left your civilian nastiness at home........you brought it to the Corps with you! So how can you miss what you haven't lost?

Yes, worry about your PFT, rifle scores, and how you act. Just ALWAYS put out in PT NEVER EVER EVER take the easy way out, and pay attention to your PMI as far as shooting.

Act howthey tell you and listen only to your DI's and other Marines.

Now it's time to see if you can earn it! It's a hard road, even after Boot...but the pride cannot be measured.

Alright, I'm going. Now the only thing I'm worrying about is shaving- I can't do it all that well with a regular razor. Well, I'm gone. Cya in november.

I say lucky because if I had my choice I'd be going with them. I am excited for boot camp, not nervous. I don't mean to imply that I think it will be easy, quite the opposite in fact. I just wish I could put college on hold while I did it instead of waiting, because I'm excited to get my chance at the best title in the world.
