PACK TEST and fast food.

Today is Sunday and it was suppose to be our first day off but I actually had my pack test today. That was our test that determined whether we are qualified to be on the FRT (Fuel Reduction Team).

It was nice to be able to sleep in, I slept all the way to nine-thirty which was amazing but then Josh (one of my hall mates) knocked on our door and woke s up (hah great) We ended up going to In And Out for breakfast. They are this big famous burger joint out here I got fries, which sucked, an AMAZING strawberry/ Chocolate shake and a burger.

Then a couple hours later we had the test. It was pretty hot out and we had to do three large loops around the base parking lot wearing this really huge uncomfortable 45 pound vest. I brought my ipod and blasted Girl Talk while speed-walking. It was tough I had to push myself to keep up this ridiculously fast pace. I was sweating buckets. We had to come in under 45 minutes. I ended up coming in at 41 minutes and 31 seconds!!!!

No one that I know of got in faster than 40 minutes. Cody, she is one of my Suit-mates and in my Pod also tried out and she passed too! Now I'm just waiting to hear if I'll be accepted. eeesh


OH and here is my address
Finley Janes, Class 16, Pod 10 Americorps NCCC Pacific Campus 3427 Laurel St. McClellan, Ca, 95652
