O_o;; Wha...I thought they stopped those fifteen month deployments?
Hah, after they made Iraq...what did they call it? A non combat zone or something? We started joking in the clinic that some of us would get orders on our ASK saying "Iraq."

People can be so disgusting. I remember a group in AIT had to clean the port a potties...and my battle buddy had to pick up defecation from the urinal. So the sergeants said they would need to make a rule in the following class not to do the number two in urinals. >_>;;

Holy cow. BABY WIPE SHOWERS? Women can't go long with those. D< Hell, after a week of being in the field without showers...a lot of the females had...erm...issues. >_>;; I wonder how long they had to deal with it. You were gone on leave for a month, right?

Of course. xD When I had to draw in art class, I hated it. Doodled a ton of them on my own though!
The only thing I liked about going to the field was all the extra sleep I got to get. Went to bed around seven and woke up around five. 8D Of course...there was an hour of guard duty in the mix...but whatever...

Which series are your favorites? ^^

Yep. That is pretty much the next step. Kinda sucks. It's definitely not Kuwait, but I'm sure that's what they are building i up as. OMG.. kuwait is SO HOT! haha... and they get combat pay as well <.<

Wow... that's pretty bad. I bet someone was drinking when that happened. Thing is, we definitely blamed the locals or the ASG here. no one would want to think that a US Soldier would do something so stupid and gross. But you never really know because they didn't catch the person/people that were doing it. They posted shower guards after that though. No more problems now that there are real showers.

You get 14 days of leave. But it took over a month for me to leave my fob and get back to it. It was nuts! Took forever going out. Got stuck in kuwait for 5 days and that never happens. Stuck in sharana for 8 days... stuck in BAF for 2 days... yep.. one really really long trip. haha.

Oh man... I hated being forced to draw a certain thing or idea. I'd always rebel and try to draw what i wanted and just throw something in that slightly related to the topic as an after though. haha.. like if there had been a rubber stamp on a corner that you hardly noticed, yep, that would be the required part.

You know, I really love One Piece. I hated it to begin with but it's so funy once you get into it. And I have... KenIchi here with me. I've only watched one or two episodes though. Naruto was fun, haven't seen more than 50 eps of Shippuden. I liked Bleach til he rescued Rukia... haha.. then it got boring. I dunno. I'm picky I guess :P What about you? Oh yeah... i used to LOOOOOVE pokemon. lol

........*tries to volunteer for Kuwait* xD

Nah, that was when we were at Camp Bullis during the FTX. We were the second company to be in the ultra nice new FTX site. We started off at the old one, then a couple days later, they transported us over. We thought we were in heaven! Cement floors, toilets, REAL showers, and real guard towers! ...then we were smacked with cold water, bannings of using the shower and toilets during the day, and getting security attacked by our super excited first sergeant. He was so cool though. xD

...Did they count the travel time to your leave? o_o And why were you stuck at all of those locations? No transportation out?

*LAUGHS* That's so awesome. I can imagine having a whole image and the little requirement stuffed in an innocuous spot.

I read the beginning of the manga. Then I stopped getting Shonen Jump. Same with Naruto. I'm only about fifty or so episodes into Bleach. Gets boring after they get her? Ooo...man. I thought the beginning was terrible...I just couldn't get into it. Then they went to Soul Society and then I was HOOKED.

I don't think I've heard of KenIchi...*googles it*

Haha, I really liked Fullmetal Alchemist, Death Note, Senkaiden Houshin Engi, Shaman King, and a bunch more...I have a preference for shounen titles over shoujo. But I do like Ouran Host Club, Kaichou wa Maid-sama, and Skip Beat. xD

Volunteering for kuwait would be nice. It's like... the US there, well like maybe the desert in colorado hot but still. They have everything adn they can go off into Kuwait City, though it's like enter at your own risk cause people get kidnaped. But there are pools! lol. Aren't super excited 1sg's fun? lol

No, travel time and R&R time doesn't count. It's free. So pretty much I got a month off and I only felt super guilty about it! The day that I left my friends started getting blown up and shot :(

Oh yeah! I totally for got about FMA, that was a great one. All the way through. And FMP, is funny, mostly FMP Fumoffuu. haha. I watched first season of Death Note, I mean after they killed L (was that him, i forget now) Why keep going? :( Never heard of the next, never watched the next... Wolf's rain is interesting. Uhm... There is one that I'm forgetting. About flying and stuff. Aaaand I never heard of the last ones. Lol. I'm pretty out of touch with that now :( How sad cause I really do like it. lol

o_o How...likely is it to get kidnapped in Kuwait? *didn't even hear about this before!*

Of course! Our current first sergeant is really cool. He's a former drill sergeant. But he's really awesome. xD Gets you pumped up with how hooah hooah he is. 8D

Ah, I see...are your friends okay? T_T They made it, right?

Yeah, I love Fullmetal Alchemist. I haven't started the remake yet. I prefer the art style in the original even though the second one looks more like the mangaka's art. >_>;; I want to see it with my friend. xD She just has to finish the original. 8D
Uh...even though L dies...you find out what happens to Light? xD
I haven't seen Wolf's Rain yet. I keep meaning to! There's a lot of series I keep saying I'll see and then I never find time for. >_>;;

Well one of my friends I met on R&R was there in Kuwait, and he used to go out drinking all the time and then sneak back on post in the morning. So he said it was dangerous and yet he never had any problems, apart from getting caught once. XD

Hmm, yeah the hooah hooahness can either get you pumped or make you really really not want to be there. LOL. Glad that it works out for you though!

Yes they made it. One got sniped and lost 3 feet of intestine and another got shot in the hand, another through the arm and one other got blown up and is deaf in one ear and his knee is messed up but they are all still alive. Doind much better now as well. :)

Haha, I know there are so many... hmm... just heard an explosion.. looks like it's time to go :( but I should be back if it was nothing more than a small attack XD just a little bit of machine gun fire as well.... hmm... they always do this right around chow time!!!! EVIL!!!! lol

I'm glad to hear they're okay!

T___T Oh gosh. Good luck to you! Hope your battles are okay!

I should head off to bed now. *sighs* Twenty four hour shift tomorrow.

I like your new avi, tori! its very cute.

Isn't it? Looks kinda like an angel-cat playing the guitar. Almost. Sort of. Kinda. Maybe a little bit. :yes:

sounds like an epic halloween costume for a pet.

Did you get the "My owner is an idiot" e-mail? haha.. about all the pets dressed up in costumes, mostly dogs and cats but it was hilarious XD

no I didn't. sounds hilarious though!

Arghhhh, I don't wanna go to work. xD I spend way too much time at that clinic already...

And I'm still aching from yesterday. Couldn't really sleep. I can only sleep on my back and my tail bone still hurts so badly. @[email protected];;

Wonder what's going on. Someone's shouting "Wake up! Wake up!" outside. O_o;;

Woah. Maybe there's a fire? Or maybe someone's really excited to be home?

Actually, it was pretty angry. O_o;; I'm assuming someone could've been coming in drunk and passed out before getting back to their room.

Wow. Well, that was certainly strange sounding.

It...it's not exactly uncommon. Soldiers always seem to get wasted drunk on Fridays and Saturdays. >_>;;

who wants to do my homework for me?!

Depends on which subject. xD

hm, I'm adding citations to an paper I wrote for art history because I plagiarized on accident. then I have to come up with a solution or something for a group speech...I don't really know what I'm supposed to do for that.

o_o;; Oh no! Doesn't sound like fun work at all. >_>;;

...a solution for plagiarizing? Why is it a group speech? *blinkblink*

why would it be fun!?

I'm rewriting the paper correctly with the citations in it.

because that's what the teacher assigned. its a long 15-25 minutes speech.

I enjoyed SOME work/projects...

Oh oh. xD I always wrote papers with them...because I always usually only had one draft of the paper. *whistles*

O_o;; Holy cow. I'm not sure even I can babble on for THAT long on ANY kind of speech. With the exception of the salutatorian speech?

yeah, but that's kinda rare.

well, I had no direct quotes, but I got in trouble for paraphrasing basically. and this was a one draft paper.

well, there are 4 people in the group so we each speak some. the speech is supposed to be about a product of service you can offer. its like a sales pitch.

I put in a lot of citations to bump up the word count or page count. xD

You can pick any kind of product or service? Huh...so about four to five minutes of talking each...Which class is that for?
