Well it seems that time is shorter than i've expected. I could barely recover from the physical and mental strain that i had during the past week field camp and navex. And now in a matter of hours, im going to go through another same exciting week again. Its already been about a month in SI*SPEC and fortunately i've kinda got acquainted with most of my platoon mates already. Without a doubt, training is much more intensive. What helps me to hang on firmly? The fact that there's 11 others in my section who are hanging on too. I would not lie to myself or anyone that thoughts of giving up has indeed crossed my mind several times, especially when it gets too hard to catch a breath. But im glad that at the end of the day, im still able to recompose my goals and wants. The only thing that keeps me going? There's only 4 more months to go until i get my 3 stripes and $800/mth waiting for me.

1 year 1month left until i ORD! bleah. wad an anti-climax. Feels like forever sometimes.
