This will be my last day to do anything I want to do for a long time. I'll be off in basic for 3 months, then AIT for 9 weeks. All together I'll be gone for 5 months, and who else knows how long. I mean I might hop on if we get a break for the holidays, but thats about it. These past 2 years have been fun GC. But now i must venture my own path. I don't know what else to add so I'm just watching the fish, kinda killing 30 secs at a time. Stay fly GC, I'll be back in due time.

Hope all goes well, good luck! Get back on here and keep me updated on this thread on how shits going lol
The marines change people man. Don't let them change you!!!! I wish you the best either way bro, well be here when you get back
Hey, you know if he is 18 or 19 that means he joined GC under age But if he joined the marines at 20+ years of age... damn that must mean college or work wasnt cutting it. Either way tho, Stay strong and good luck in basic. Let us know how it goes.
Good luck, and hopefully see you back here soon.(that way i know you're alive) Seriously tho, good luck, and stay safe.
Thanks guys. Don't know what gave the impression of the Marines though. Marines is boot camp. Army is basic training. lol
Not going to lie, never really appreciated those comments that much up until now. I realize i was in a shit situation and needed to fix it, well, it got fixed alright. But now, I miss that shit situation lol. Ahh the delusions of being an addict, gotta love it, gotta hate it. But all that aside, I'm not bad. I've been able to pass all my PT tests thus far and pass height and weight as well. But whats odd is up until a month or so before the test i don't do anything to maintain it. I just will myself to pass and it always works. I've also found that ( in my head atleast) That being sober, is a very good comparison to being assimilated. And i fucking hate it. Will not lie, smoked about 3 times since i have been up here. I will say i need to watch myself, as 2 of those times were in the same week. I know a few guys who do it on a semi-regular basis, and while i really don't like where I am at, i don't want to get out without finishing my term, simply so i can get my schooling when i get out. As for mental health, it could be worse. I had an incident a few months ago when drunk where i bashed my head into my closet and really wanted to destroy something or hurt someone. Was sent to a substance abuse class due to this and....today was my last session. I can drink again as soon as my CM and !st SGT verify that i did all the time needed, but i don't think I'll drink as often even though i could. I realized that i was using alcohol as a replacement for all the drugs i used in the passed, and while i only drank on the weekends, it was a weekly habit. I honestly think if i could come back to my room, smoke a bowl and chill, after work, I would enjoy this place 10% more. All the restrictions to freedom and what i can absolutely sucks. I don't have the freedom of free speech. Like literally, I can;t protest at ALL. Which falls under the category of free speech. While i have never seen a protest where i was in the past, it still sucks knowing that i (legally) am not allowed to due so, because of being in the military. I think when my time is up, I will just go to school and try to maintain my drug usage. I know where i want to live, in terms of general location. Out in the woods off a dirt road will be nice. Also, sorry it took so long to respond to this thread, i made others, but i'm not sure if everyone saw them. It's been fairly pleasant being back. I don't seem to post as much as i used to, but i crack that up to less free time. Stay fly GC.
