The third week of school..... Its kind of that in between period. Finally adjusted. Finally have a routine. But now there are events to go to, groups to join, and tests and papers all seem to happen at once. School is going well. I am usually able to crank out my homework by 18:00 (benefits of a morning heavy schedule). It offers some good down time in the evening, but most of the time it's spent working out, studying the ridiculous amount of Arabic vocab they want us to know, and studying for quizzes and tests.
ROTC is a blast. Unfortunately I failed my first APFT (don't worry, most MSIs did). I am getting involved in Ranger Challenge, which is pretty much the varsity sport of Army ROTC. We do PT five days a week (regular PT meets only three). It just started today, but I'm looking forward to the obstacle course days, M16 assembly and disassembly, and grenade throw events. Hopefully the program will boost my APFT scores, as well as teach me how to become a better leader and teammate.
I still am searching for a church, but the hunt is still on.
Thats it for the update. Look for other posts later on today for some of the issues I have thought about this week.
