Now to top that, my 19 credit hour course load dropped a overwhelming load of assignments on me so I got to spent the time not in class, working out, or doing some Corp of Cadets crap, sitting in my dorm outlining chapters or working problems on paper. this may not seem that bad because it is during the week and that should be devoted to class, but imagine knowing that your weekend will not consist of any fun because the Corps does not allow freshman to stay out past 2300.
As the weekend approached things started to get brighter, till the snow started. Me growing up in Arizona and never experiencing snow, or temperatures below 70 degrees, i really do not enjoy the 20 degree and below temperatures. Then comes the +12" of snow which was not cool at all and made my saturday, miserable. But one highlight of the weekend was the Cadets vs. Civilians snowball fight. Even though we lost, which was expected because there was like 400 civilians and 90 Cadets. But we still had so much fun stealing shields, signs for rushing, rafts, and even someones boom box. The snow was way to powdery to make projectiles so I found it more fun grabbing people and dumping them into the snow.
Yeah I had a temper problem back in senior of high school. There was a lot of crap going on in my life and I was easily irritated and often found my self blowing up at even my best friends. My studies didn't help one bit too being in the IB program which is similar to AP classes. As for the snowball fight, it was fun getting to battle against the corp and I can't wait til the next time when the snow is just right for packing.
ReplyDeleteWow, though, I can't imagine having so much structure and hierarchy in my life that I wouldn't really be allowed to lose my s*** at someone who was close to my age. I'm glad you didn't get a more serious reprimand. I know the first year for cadets can be quite a struggle, esp. if they're strong-willed...
