ATTENTION IN THE AREA, ATTENTION IN THE AREA. 33 DAYS UNTIL RECOGNITION FOR THE CLASS OF 2012.

So its been a few days since the last post. and 40 days is well under way. It does suck, but I've adjusted to it alright. So what are some of the crazy things we have to do you ask? Well, the Squadron ROE's are probably the most ridiculous. Heres as many as I can recall at the moment:

-We have to greet 2 and 3 degrees by their first, middle, last name, and hometown. We have to greet Firsties by their first, middle, last name, hometown, and AFSC.
-We have to greet the aircraft painted in hallway alcoves with manufacturer, alpha numeric designator, name, and nickname.
-We have to do racetracks, so no crossing halls.
-Zoolander is in effect, so only left turns with a duty, honor, country twist
-The buddy system is also in effect when in the squadron, which seems to be the most annoying rule
-We have to be in UOD from Reveille to TAPS.
-19 pushups when entering the squadron.

Those are the ones I can think of at the moment. I'm sure I'm missing some. Anyway, i still dont have the names memorized, or the forty eleven thousand names for staff lists. but I think we're all getting a little apathetic about it. I mean we take it seriously, but some stuff is nearly impossible to do, which is kind of the point. 33 more days... This weekend was alright though. On saturday we woke up and the entire class went to the Carlton House, which is where the Superintendent lives. That was pretty cool. its a huge house- pretty much where the president visits when he's in town. And we got permission from General Regni's wife to TP the house for our day during 40 days. so that should be fun. Yesterday Shawn and I went snowboarding at Keystone. it was pretty fun, but conditions could have probably been better. It was a little icy, but it started snowing and got better towards the end of the day. Had to write an english paper last night though and that sucked. I can already tell this is going to be a long week. but this weekend is going to be pretty awesome. Michael is coming to visit Courtney so we're all going to hang out at some point. its also hundreds night weekend. so on hundreds night we'll be at rest from 1630 to TAPS in the entire cadet area. which is crazy! thats going to be a lot of fun. Austin, Brett, and I are going to get McCaskey's room. I'm thinking tons of post its and jello and stuff. alright im headin out so ill talk to you later...
