Letter # 1

We received this letter after we posted her address.


Dear Family & Friends,
I'm not sure what my address is yet but I had some free time so I figured I would write to you all.

It's so hot here you don't even know. Even if you have been to Oklahoma, you haven't been here in freakin ACUS & Boots.It's insane

We all have nick names for each other. Like there's a girl from Hawaii that looks exactly Lilo, so that's her nick name. Lol. And there's "Dr. Augustine" cuz she looks like the doctor from "Avatar." We have fun.

So far reception is everything everyone has said it would be. It freakin sucks.

We are getting our "Peanut butter shots" on Monday along with all our vaccines. Not looking forward to that.

Our drill sergeants are pretty chill. They can be real jerks at times, but they definitely are looking out for us.

I wish I had the magic book with me. Our drill sergeants have said some funny stuff. Like Barnes said one day "I really just wanna choke my privates." Haha. We all laughed so hard.

Even though a lot of it sucks, I am having fun. I'm meeting new people, doing new things all in a new place. It is definitely an adventure.
I am never hungry. Ever. by the time my stomach starts growling. it's time to eat again. The food is good (I have been eating the food through the healthy line and staying away from biscuits and gravy). I have been drinking so much water, from the canteen that it is attached to my hip, that I have been peeing like a race horse.

There are four of us going to AIT together and three of us have the same MOS. It's pretty awesome.

We are all starting to talk army. It's pretty funny. And I already have a freakin farmer's tan.

Dude, these army dudes are FINE...completely off limits, but still fine. Haha.

I miss you all so much and I hope y'all will write me lotsa letters. Once I find out what my address is. I miss you guys. MUAH!

XOXO
