Last one

This is it.

This should be my last post for awhile.

I ship for Basic tomorrow, Well Wednesday, but I'll be tied up all day tomorrow with the ARMY. I'm going to try to keep a writen blog in a journal while I'm there, and I'll fill in the blanks and back date them all when I get back in December. 

This is going to be the hardest thing I've ever done. I'm scared as hell but I think I'll do okay.  I'm gonna miss Sarah something feirce. But I'll work around it I guess.. We're not really together. I have to stop thinking we are. Maybe the time apart will help fix things, or at least make it easier.I don't know. 

I'm about to start in on the craziest adventure of my life.. It's just alot to take in..

So I'll be seeing you around Bloggers .. 

Bye

So I'm im the military.

          It's official, I'm now Private First Class John Heald. I ship out to Basic on Wednesday morning as long as all my paperwork clears on tuesday, and I meet my PT requirements. Pt requirements are just a minimum amount of exersize I can do. The minimums are 17 sit ups in a minute, 15 push ups in a minute, and I have to be able to run a mile in under 8 mins and 30 sec. I'm a little nervous about the running, but I'm going to time myself tomorrow morning down at the track. 

          I'm nervous still. I'm more nervous than I was. This is gonna be crazy, but it's going to be a really good step for my future. 

          I got to talk to my Uncle Billy Boyd the other day.  I'm really upset that i lost contact with him. He's a really good guy, with some really good advice. Talking to him made me feel a lot better about everything. 

          I'm gonna miss my new blog while I'm gone. Lol Maybe I'll write a bunch of stuff down while I'm there, date it all, and just come and backdate it into here in December. Give everyone a look into military life.

          We'll see.

So tomorrow/today is the day.

Which ever way you look at it. 

          In 4 hours I will be on my way to the MEPS building in Boston to finalize my enlistment. I will be all signed up and as long as everything goes the way it's supposed to, I'll be in FT. Benning Georgia by wednesday of next week.  

          Reception week for Basic training starts Sept 22nd, and they're grouping my basic and AIT so I'll be home Dec 19th for X-mas break, and then 2 weeks after that, I'll head back until the end of January. Then from there it's a mystery. 

          I'm scared shitless. I won't lie, but how else am I supposed to feel? 

         I need to get some sleep. Long day tomorrow. Cross your finger everybody (and by everybody I guess I mean Sam lol) Who else is gonna read this right? 

          NIGHT SAMANTHA!
