1/3 done with ASBC!!!

OK, so I am done with week 2 of 6 (1/3 done!!!). There is only one test while I am here and it is at the end of week four. The week days are sometimes boring, and sometimes interesting. Sometimes the lessons are boring or hard to understand, and sometimes we get guest speakers that talk about cool stuff!

My squadron is called the Gryphons. A gryphon is a mythological creature that is top half eagle and bottom half lion. My flight's name within the Gryphon's is the Gamblers. So, we needed to make a t-shirt with a picture on it. At first a clip art picture of some cards was chosen for our picture, but I couldn't let that happen. I told them I would draw a picture...and here is the final product! I dew a gryphon with a royal flush.
Saturday, my next door neighbor over here got promoted to a 1st Lt. so its traditional when you get promoted to a higher rank you buy liquor for everyone or throw a party. So.., he did. I BBQ'd (sshhhhh... don't tell anyone, but that was just my 2nd time BBQing, and my 1st time on charcoal..... But I did good and everyone liked them). We had a keg and BBQ burgers, and alot of 2d Lt's! Someone even broke out a slip n' slide! I'm meeting alot of fun, nice, and professional people here.
Also, since my flight did so good this week (top flight), we received an award to carry around for this week. His name (the award) is "Nutter". He is a stuffed squirrel. We heard that if he could talk that he would have some good stories to tell. So we wanted to add some stories to his library (keg stands, M-4 pointed at his head just to name

We wear these shirts a couple of times a week... usually when we have a flight challenge (game). Oh, by the way, we play this game called Icarus. It is an Air Force game that has a LOT of rules. Its one of these nerdy games that combines mind skills, with physical ability. We played our first game this week and beat the other team 34-3. We were awesome. That win also gave our flight the top flight honors for the week!

This week coming up will be alot of fun. We have a fun "out" day on Monday. Another "out" day on Tuesday. Special Operations brief on Wednesday. Icarus on Thursday. Friday is not that great, but I am coming home that day. I think this will be my last weekend in town before the move.

OOhhh... I also got my real ID this week! I'm official. Also, my orders finally came through on Friday (I needed those to start getting paid). All I have left to do for in-processing is give blood and get shots.
