Hello once again.

Hey everyone. Well its finally a nice long weekend for me and I'm here in Toronto visiting Megan. Its feels so nice to get away from the base. Things seem so normal and its nice not having to march everywhere. This weekend I'm going to Megan's cottage with her family, should make for a nice relaxing Canada day.

As for training, we've finally finished the first course that I'm taking this summer(IAP). On tuesday we begin the BOTP, and that will last 6 more weeks. Two of which are in the field with no sleep lol, and one week that is all drill practice for our grad parade. So time will fly by quickly and soon enought I'll be an officer. I'm not too sure about the dates for grad yet but our staff said that we should know within the next two weeks. So I'll get that to all of you asap. As some of you have already heard, this past week I had to move to the other end of the base. Our officer just felt like getting us to move. So now I live in the ugly green sector. Thats where matt lived and boy does it ever suck.. Before i had my own room, could shut my door when I wanted and had privacy... Now I have none. Just a big room, with a 4 foot wall seperating everyones hole, and no privacy at all ..... IT SUCKS>.

well thats it for now... I'll do my best to hopefully get some pictures for my next post.

Hello from training

Hey there everyone. Well I figured seeing how I have the weekend off, and not going to Montreal I would take some time to update you all on what I've been up to. Well each day I wake up around 4:30 and 5, and either go running, or start preparing for our inspection. I spend all my day in class, either Drill, leadership, TOPO, field training, or PT. With the very lil sleep that we are getting, it gets kinda hard to stay awake alot of the times. But somehow our bodies have adapted to it. Each night we are up studying, cleaning, or preparing for the next day. For the most part I'm doing really well in the course. My leadership, drill, tests, and all that I'm getting great marks, but unfortunitly the morning runs, and the ruck sack marchs are getting a lil hard for me. But I'll keep on going. Well Time is almost out on this computer so I'm alive and well. I hope to update you all more.... Miss you all.
