This is where my story begins. In ROTC we are supposed to be a family...fuck that. ROTC is not a family, it's the Jerry show. There is so much god damn drama it's unreal. This drama makes me not like A LOT of the people in ROTC. My list has grown to well over thirty. I am sick and tired of picking you out one by one and telling you your flaws. I am SICK of it. If you really want to know what I think of you, ask me...I will be more than happy to point out EVERY one of your flaws. For those of you that think you're perfect (Brandon Smith), You've got another thing comin'. So go ahead and ask if you please...I may reveal that you're a tease.

For those of you that I can stand and love most dearly, I thank you. I thank you for showing me your trust and compassion. Lindi...I thank you for being there for me when I needed you.( more times than I can count on my fingers and toes...can i borrow yours?)I also wanted to thank you for putting up with my bullshit(complaining)May it continue for ever more. You are the best friend in the world to me, and you will always be my lucky star.

Trav...you are a good kid, and no matter how many times you try and convince me, you are not gay. This is gonna sound wierd coming from me...but if it's a bad day on the outside...you make it a better day on the inside. SEE! I told you it's sound wierd. Needless to say you know how to make someone happy. You're just funny.

Kory...I will always want your mom, And I will always want to send you to cuba. You're a good kid, and damnit you better drink the Starbucks. You keep people happy(Lindi) and you regulate the mexicans jumping the border...Way to go pony boy :)!

Brandon Sciaretta...well, um, I'm sorry? Those are some words that have been used time and time again. Most of which, have come from my mouth. I've had a lot on my mind and I've treated you bad. Oops. You're a good...friend.

And god, thank you for baseball! (seriously)
