Hehe...I stuck with it for a quarter, but didn't enjoy it. Yeah, I went to college to learn new things and better myself as a person, but rolling out of the rack at 0430 for PT just wasn't my bag of chips. And the damn haircuts, and the extra classes (my schedule is busy enough as it is). I figured, if I want to do this as a career, I can always go OCS. I'm willing to give the Navy 10 years of my life, but damnit, these 4 here in Auburn are mine.
This isn't to say NROTC is bad; in fact, it is probably better [than OCS] in many ways. But that is an entirely different topic, and I'm too drunk at the moment to talk about that.
Speaking of Whiting Field, last summer, I happened to stumble across it driving back to Auburn from my parent's condo in Navarre. Out in the middle of frickin' nowehere. But then again, so is Auburn...
Aye, I think I've rambled enough for one night and I am going to stumble to my bed. Spanish holidays and finals do not mix well.
