<p>We dropped the Daughter off this morning. Hope everyone sends out a prayer tonight for 2011. They will need it by morning.</p>
<p>Aw, they are all asleep now. Their first morning will be a SHOCKER! :)</p>
<p>so what all went on today? any beat-downs? hehe :) where'd they stay the night? and what'll happen tomorrow?</p>
<p>I hope they play "Welcome to the Jungle" at 0430 tomorrow. That's how I want to be woken up for 5 weeks straight.</p>

<p>No beatings yesterday, but this morning I'm sure they learned the front leaning rest well. :) 0530 today probably wasn't very fun.</p>
<p>Haha, they definitely played Welcome to the Jungle this morning at 0430, I heard it all the way over in my room in Sijan Tower while leaving for Jump.</p>
<p>PatriotCPM: you just made my day.</p>
<p>I always get voted down...but I think they should add "Pressure" from Billy Joel....</p>
<p>so i know everyone has already gone over the hair stuff, but when i was looking at all the pictures, all the girls hair is cut... so i'm really worried my redhead might have had to cut off all her beautiful curls. did they end up having to cut their hair, or did the girls with short hair just decide to cut it off??
hopefully everyone is sending lots of <em>brightly colored</em> letters and saying lots of prayers for 2011!</p>
<p>Is Redhead your daughter? </p>
<p>The women generally get to keep their hair if they can maintain it "up" and to standard. If they can't it gets cut. Note that many girls had long hair but had it pinned or tied so that it would not touch their collars.</p>
<p>lol, I see you found CC too JF. Girls don't have to have their hair cut, they can either have it short so it is above the collar OR they can pull it into a neat bun in a reasonable amount of time.</p>
<p>haha, no i'm definitely NOT her mother, although we do act as each others mothers at times, lol. and i didn't have to look too hard for CC, seeing as it is a favorite saved on my computer by redhead... oh, and i finally found a pic of her where i could tell her hair was still long-just braided and up. so, i'm relieved!! if we send a BC something besides a letter (such as items or pictures) will it be saved until after BCT or will it just be thrown away?</p>
<p>It will be saved until after BCT. But I highly suggest holding off just in case stuff could get lost.</p>
<p>Whoa wierd, I just realized that exactly one year to the day after I-Day for my class, I was Jumping out of a plane! June 29th '06-June 29th '07</p>
<p>So if any parents have Basics that are struggling, tell them to hang in there, and the time will fly and before you know it, when it seems like only yesterday you were a shaven head Basic, you will be jumping out of planes from 4500 feet or doing some equally awesome thing. There is a light at the end of the tunnel...however long that tunnel may seem right now.</p>
<p>In the good old days, we had to do pushups for any letters...extra fushups for anything extra.</p>
