Let me just say it straight out: the next couple of weeks will see several
cadets failing the academy. We have started scenarios and EVOC (driving) and those are the two classes that see off the most people. I've already failed my first (of four) skid pan attempts. I have my second attempt on monday. Some people may have failed out from physical methods of arrest yesterday. I hate to think about it but it's reality: people will fail. I hope I am not one of those.
I've take an "expect nothing" approach to the academy lately. Do I want to graduate and succeed? Of course! But I know that I am trying my absolute best and if I were to fail (lets hope not) then I know I tried. The academy life grows difficult, even more so than before. Sooooo much is going on lately and so much more is to come.
On a happier note, I finally got off the fat table :) I went from wearing size 33 jeans to size 31, though I still buy 32...just in case :) Hopefully this time next week, the next blog will be about what happened during the week. All blog posts from this point forward are tentative.....Feel free to drop any comments!
P.S. I LOVE the shot gun. I'm getting better at the rifle and better at the pistol.
