<p>It is amazing that the first year is almost over. All 2013s, congrats on receiving an appointment to what I think is the greatest school ever and get ready because you are in for the ride of your life!!!
All you moms and dads of the new appointees, you are in for the time of you life as well. There is another forum with a private parents section, if you are interested PM me and I will send you the link.</p>
<p>Hey all, remember to enjoy senior year. I remember a firstie told me on SUnday that we'll always be counting down to something. The trick is to not count the days, but to make the days count. So be sure to enjoy the free time/video games/civvies/other really nice things we didn't have last week while you can.</p>
<p>you count days until you come here, days til basic is over, til recognition, til u get a car, your ring, days until graduation. days until u start UPT or your job, does until your next move, days til you switch jobs, til you pin on the next rank, til you can retire, etc etc</p>
<p>not saying don't be excited about the great things to come, just remember to enjoy life and don't try to wish it away. it can be hard at times, but ensure you "don't count the days, make the days count"</p>
