View Full Version : moved up the ship date
I DEPed in Sep 2008, but my ship date wasn't until May 26, 2009. I got tired of waiting around, so when my recruiter offered me a closer ship date (May 11) I gladly took it. Tomorrow--or should I say today since it's 2:30 am--is my IST and I ship in 8 days. Thing is, I am a complete ball of nerves, I can't sleep, feel sick, ect. I'm excited, thankful, and feel confident about my fitness level and knowledge, so I don't understand why I'm so freakin' nervous! Just wondering if anyone else on here has experienced or is experiencing this and if any you have any advice on how to just chill the **** out!
Thanks as always.

You think you are nervous now, just wait when you meet them yellow foot prints with what ever else,lol.
I think it's all this anticipation...once I'm there I don't think I'll even be able to think about being nervous. Off to my IST!

As I've said before,,,,,Once you jump off the cliff, you may as well enjoy the ride.

And if you got time kiss your azz goodbye.:scared:
True, true. Just gotta take the plunge and suck it up! Killed at the IST, I'm as ready as I'll ever be.
