Loading ...I’m in Columbus in my hotel room, night before meps. I got to the Holiday Inn, and the check-in desk directed me to a room that was converted for military use. In the room a guy was checking in people and giving instructions.
“Lights out at 2220, wake up calls have already been set for 0445. In your keys you will find two tickets, blue tickets are for dinner tonight, and red tickets for breakfast in the morning. You must be in your rooms tonight no later than 2200, so keep fraternizing under control. Do not do anything, drugs/alcohol in your rooms, and don’t let it disrupt your testing in the morning.”
Very quick and direct, I think he had said his little spiel a few times before. Luckily since I am an officer candidate, I got a room to myself. I got here around 8pm, and have been up here in my room watching episodes of ‘The Office’ on my laptop.
It’ll be bedtime fairly soon, since wakeup call is in 7 hours already… yikes!

Jas,
I’m just wondering how the Navy is going to feel about your blog, especially the stories that are telling others (the web world) about who you are, what your are doing, and specific experiences you are having. These entries are a little more personal than a short story you’ve created or idea your thinking through. I’m wondering this especially since you are going into a field that requires secrecy – possibly evebn secrecy regarding your position within the Navy.
Probably over reacting. Just a passing thought.
