I think
I'm starting to get a little tired of living with a bunch of other
people. People are constantly coming and going in our room. The door is
squeaky and very annoying. Sometimes they only come halfway and start
yelling down the hall. Sometimes they just open the door and have
conversations with people across the room. It's tolerable during normal
hours, but after lights out it gets very annoying.
I
was woken up at 3:59 for my 4:00 CQ shift. They are supposed to wake
the person up a half hour before their shift so they can get ready. I
had to jump out of bed and throw on my ACUs. I knew I would have time to
shave and get ready afterwards because this shift does not do PT. So I
quickly went down stairs and sat for 2 hours at the CQ desk with 3 other
people (they have 2 girls and 2 guys doing it). When it was over we
headed over for breakfast and then I came back up to my room to find my
blanket from my bed missing. WTF?? At first I thought someone stole it,
then I realized a sergeant had been going through all the rooms. Now I'm
guessing he took it because it wasn't made. I figured it was more
important to get to my shift on time. I guess not.
School
today was normal, we go through a lot of information. This A+ class is
usually an entire quarter at a regular college, but we are going through
it in 9 days. For me it's actually just a refresher course, but there
are some I feel bad for since they have barely touched a computer in
their lives.
The
DFAC has been extremely crowded lately. There are a crap load of kids
all dressed up in BDUs here for the Civil Air Patrol. They are here for a
week. I think they have more military discipline than most of the
people here! Their formations are good and their manners in the DFAC are
excellent. Not sure exactly what the Civil Air Patrol is, I'll have to
check into that.
I'm
starting to hate everyone here. Not a good mental state to be in, but
everyone just seems to be frustrating me right now. I went down for the
3rd time to try and find a sergeant and each time the place was either
crowded or there was no sergeant to be found. I'm giving up tonight,
I'll just sleep in my winter PTs. Maybe I'll buy a throw later and just
put it in my locker each morning, it would be more comfortable than
these stupid green wool blankets anyway. I could also order one online
and have it shipped here, that would be funny.

Gawd...I think the sergeant just crop dusted me" (PFC Metal in
formation after he caught wind of a nasty smell when one of our
sergeants walked by)
