Mom—

Hello!! Well its Sunday and I just got back from church. I dk why I go. Smith kinda makes me and it gives me something to do I guess. Now I’m just sitting on the floor by my bunk waiting for chow. I’m excited. One more week at red phase. I will be glad to get that over with. Then we can stop wearing these damn turtle shell helmet and back to the patrol cap. That will be nice. Smith and I are talking about right after training when to our unit to go straight to OTC and become officers. I think I’m just gonna do the normal think. If I were to try and become an officer they they would add more years to my contract. I don’t want that at all. I’m fine with what I got now then when I get that done with I’m going to maybe re-enlist for two or three years if I can get recruiting. I’d like to be a recruiter for a couple years while I go to night school. And I’m hoping I can be at the one near the mall or at least a nice driving distance away from you. That way I’m still making money and all that good stuff. Maybe get an apartment at evergreen park and get an allowance to pay for that. J that way I could see you all the time. I’d make you lunch. Haha but we will have to see where things lie but. I don’t think it will be that hard to follow my plan cuz if you re-enlist you can pretty much do whatever you want and go where ever you want and if I tell them its cuz I want to go to college. I think I will be fine. Plus I’d have to go to ROTC for a while because I have no credits. Plus where will I get cool stories from sitting behind a desk stamping papers. Haha. Well chow was pretty good except that they had a bunch of cake on top of the salad bar and I wanted to grab some but I was afraid it was a trap then after I got my drinks, I turned and my drill sergant was right behind me the whole time, but the other people had gotten cake so it made me kinda mad. I’m Prolly going to grab some at dinner. I want some sweetness. Last Sunday I got cake but that was during a period when the ds wasn’t watching us. Who knows. I’m try tho. I don’t think I’m going to be able to make a phone call today. But there is still time who knows. We have another locker inspection today and if someone fails then I get screwed for it and yeah hardly anyone has come up and asked me about it so I’m kinda hoping everyone knows how to do it. How are you? Everything going good? Anything new? Pretty soon in AIT which is like my last 5 or 6 weeks. I get my cell phone on the weekends. Maybe. So I hope you can send me that stuff that I asked for because I still can’t go to the PX. Maybe if you can think of a good hiding spot then you could sneak me a candy bar. Haha. That would be awesome haha. Just like empty out a thing well a small thing of laundry soap and stuff if full of skittles. It would work haha. Haha. Well today is looking out to be pretty boring. It kinda makes me mad that I used to spend my Sundays with you. And we used to go to Fatty Pattys too. J I miss that a lot just spending time doing nothing. Just talking and laughing. Was so much fun. I can’t wait to see you again. I bet you are going to cry haha. Tears of joy maybe. Haha. Cuz I know I might. J It’s true. I miss you a lot madre. More that I miss candy and freedom. Good and I miss candy. I have yet to be lucky enough to get some candy in an MRE. Kinda pisses me off. It’s definitely on my list for things to get and eat on my family day. Haha. I’m gonna come back fat after those 36 hours. J calories in and calories out. Haha. I think I can get my laptop sent to me too. Haha. But I dk if I want that yet cuz I wanna know what the full uses of it are that we can do. Well I hope I get mail from you tomorrow. And if you feel like doing the skittles thing haha. Do it seriously, just make sure they don’t rattle around in there. Haha. But I dk if you will do it. Doesn’t really matter. Well let me know how everything is.

Love ya
