Not a whole lot going on.

There hasnt been a whole lot going on. Dont have any new pics. A couple of nights ago I got to drop this big merchant marine to the deck. That was fun. He was listening to us and he was being an ass so our patrol supervisor told us to take him to the deck. So we dropped him perty hard. Other than that nothing to serious has happened. Just a lot of drunk people to go pick up out in town. I love working nights! Working on becoming a patrolman right now. Just need signatures for my packet, then I can go take my test and board. Well thats all I got right now!

Got to write my first speeding ticket!

I got to write my first speeding ticket today, it was awesome! I was in unit 3 today so I got to drive anywhere I wanted today. I got to do all the driving so it was fun. So I got a ticket book issued to me today, yay. My partner and I got the radar gun and parked next to the post office. The speed limit on that street is 20KPH(kilometers per hour) and he was doing 34! 14 kilometers over, id say thats a good reason to pull someone over! And it was a Chief also, Chiefs think they are above the law, haha I showed him, lol. Today was a great day!

Off to work today.

So I started sections today. Ive moved up to the "big leagues" I guess you could say. I started out the day riding around with the Patrol Supervisor for like a hour. Then I had to do a RAM (random anti terrorism measure), just standing out front of post one. If you want to know what a RAM is then email me and Ill tell you. Then I stood post one for like 45 mins and then took lunch. After lunch I rode with a unit and we wrote some parking tickets. And then I downloaded and went home (downloaded = turning in my weapon). But my days off got changed so now I have Wednesday, Thursday off instead of Friday, Saturday. O well, I would rather work the weekends because thats when everyone gets drunk and it gives me something to do! Well, till next time, ta ta.

Snowboarding

So we went snowboarding last night, it was a lot of fun! My first time ever on a snowboard and I didnt do to bad. I was on the bunny slopes for about 45 mins getting the hang of it. Then I finally went up the mountain on the big slop. I was soooo scared at first going up the lift. Cuz where you start at the top where the lift stops, its like a 45 degree angle to get started! So the first time I went down I started going to fast so I fell on purpose so I could slide the rest of the way down. It was so much fun tho! After a few trips down I started to get the hang of it. And then the last time down I got a little cocky and tried to do some carving in and out. Well the nose of my board cought the snow and I hit real hard and my body turned but my legs didnt. So I pulled a muscle in my knee perty bad. I could barely get down the mountain the rest of the way. I woke up this morning and couldnt put any pressure on it. But I have been moving around and I walked over to the commissary and went grocery shopping and it didint hurt to bad. So hopefully I didnt do any permanent damage.

Cooking

So we finally cooked up on the fourth deck kitchen. You have to walk all the way down the street and get the key to the kitchen. Thats why I havent done it yet. MA3 Andres made some pasta with a kinda of Alfredo sauce with spinach in it. I fried up some chicken breast. It was a perty good meal. I just miss eating some home cooked food so I think thats why it tasted so good.

Snow!

Its been snowing all weekend! Its crazy, Ive never been in so much snow! We had a soccer game last night, I know me playing soccer, hehe, but anyways I played and we lost both games. The first game we tied 8-8 and lost in the shootout. The second game we lost 3-2. O well, Ill put some pics on here. Next month is the Racquetball tournament, now that is a sport Im good at!

YEN

Just thought I would post a picture of what YEN looks like, this is 5000 yen witch is about 50 bucks.

Fun at work

So I actually enjoy going to work. I finally found a job that I love to do. Right now I am just a gate guard basically, until I can get patrol man qualified. But standing post is fun, I have to check ID's and make sure the people coming on base are suppose to be here. I have the power to not let you on base, hehe. Article 7B of the UCMJ says I have the authority no matter what your rank is to take you into custody, how cool is that! Being a cop is so freaking awesome, why didnt I do this job earlier! Im going out on the town later so ill try to remember to bring my camra this time and take some pictures, sence im not suppose to take pics on base.

First day of "work".

So today was the first day that I actually went to a post and stood a post. First tho they took us around and showed us the post. I saw all but one, post 11. One of the post is like 45 mins from base! Thats crazy! We have 19 posts that have to be manned. So I stood post 9 for a few hours then rode around in a patrol and just did rounds. Thats about it!

Time for an update!

Time for an update! Lets see, I passed my weapons board on Monday and now I am in training. Its just as boring here :(. I havent been sleeping well the past week so hopefully I can get some good rest tonight. I ran 2.5 miles this morning and we have to go to the gym tomorrow for mandatory PT. I ordered my MA manual today, MA1 Diaz showed me where I can get my manual for free. Those things normally are like 80 bucks! I cant wait to get my manual and actually learn how to be a real MA! I wish I actually had my GOV license, cuz then I actually would have been able to drive the Go cart home for lunch today! My next JQR (job qualification requirement) is the learn sentry. Its about a 15 page packet so I should have it done in a few days. Well thats all I got now. Talk to you all again soon!
