first blog and don't judge the grammar I'll learn... or not.

Well I've decided to start a blog. Why? you ask. For your entertainment and so my family stops calling me to ask what i'm doing. No I don't have orders yet. I'm also kidding you all can call me i don't mind at all. but mostly because of what Mr. Reese use to say "an un-examined life is not worth living" or something like that. Also for the off chance that somebody offers me a book deal or movie rights so I get rich.  Also I was reading  Christina Flores's blog and it was very interesting about her adventures in Korea and well as I've only made it to Florida my stories probably will not be as interesting...

Also I have to preface this with the fact I may be vague about what exactly I'm doing but that's later, and I only say that because it was drilled into my head in boot camp "loose lips, sink ships" or blow airplanes out of the sky. It's whateves...

To begin I am an aviation structural mechanic (AM) in the United States Navy(USN). I am an E-1 so I am the bottom I just passed the hydraulics test with an 83% hooya! that's the hardest test we AM's have so sweet, right! I am also whats known as full time support (FTS) or a full time reservist so ugh. I also work with planes duh... aviation. you know what I wanted at first... to be an active duty submariner... I think I got the furthest from that... yep yes I did.

I don't really know how to begin this blog or what to talk about in the before mentioned blog, I will start simple.

The weather here is very very very hot... ok that's enough of that today all of us AM's were required to celebrate tonight because we all passed our hydraulics test well all the Navy passed the Marines not so much... so we all went to port side to have fun and play pool and try to flirt with the few females that are there, it's about 10-1 male to female so not much luck. Now as to preface my tale we have a sailor in our class who is from China. He is around 24 and has not quite yet socialized to our way of life, and is often the comic relief. He also gets very horribly drunk very horribly fast witch is also very funny because he is still amazing at pool. I do not understand this as he(drunk) beat me(sober) time and time again throughout the night (also whoever taught him the F word needs to be killed).

 Now to the story, we, all eight of us or so, are walking home, as we are, we are poking fun at our Chinese friend informing him that he is extremely wasted. He denies such accusations saying that he is only physically drunk, not mentally drunk and after saying this, issues a challenge, daring us to ask him anything about hydraulics. Then pointing at one of the Marines that passed his test by the skin of his teeth, asked him what kinetic energy was. The Marine replied with a shrug accompanied by an "I don't know". our Chinese  friend then proceeds to demonstrate what kinetic energy is by leaning up against a tree and shouting to the Marine why is the tree not falling over. This obviously does not demonstrate the the principle of kinetic energy especially if both objects are not moving, or make Marines calm and well mannered. So we decided to pick the Asian wonder up and carry him home to the barracks before he could go up to anyone that outranked us and get kinetic energy demonstrated on him. where he proceeded to call his mother before going to bed. so sweet.... then I went to my room and wrote this. and that was my day a rather good one at that.

oh and our token Asian got %100 on the test I came in second at %83, he is nuts man.

more stories as my life accumulates them...
good night
