oh dude i so got 3 awards u guys... 3rd place academics (wasnt really goin for that one but ok!), best tactical and top gun (both of which i REALLY wanted 2 get especially since i was the only girl in my phase). yep. DANG y'all this year was way tougher than last year b/c phase 1 was real sketchy and phase 2 was only 6 ppl so they joined us together w/ phase 1 during drill and PT so we kinda had to pay for everything phase 1 had to pay for doing... meaning we did hella PT for like the first week and a half, as opposed to barely the whole first week last year..... but one day DI Rainey was really impressed w/ phase 2 so at the end of the day when somebody broke megan's eye protection during phase 1's range day, phase 1 had to stand facing the balkhead (walls in hallway...) w/ their arms straight up for who knows how long, WE got to sit in our classroom and do nothing for 45 minutes of the normal drill time instead of joining phase 1's pain for once. btw guys, since when are walls called 'balkheads'? they called it that last year too.. "Get ur nasty friggin arms off my balkhead!!!!!" ah memories... DI Price's ever-famous uses of the words 'nasty friggin'.... "Get ur nasty friggin eyeballs off me!!"... "Get ur nasty friggin bodies in my grass, take all friggin day, TAKE ALL FRIGGIN DAY!!!!" oh man i love academy.
