http://www.theandysan.com Alright cowboys, in this episode of N-FAQS, I go over what was the hardest thing I had to do while in boot camp. I got asked this question (and many more) by one of my subscribers and it took myself a bit to narrow it down, but I did and I sent him this message: Response: That's a tough question, especially since what I might think is hard might be super-easy for somebody else. If I did have to point out one of the toughest moments I had in boot camp, it would have to be anytime I took the PFA, which is the physical test. I had to take it a total of 4 times during boot camp while the majority of everyone took it 3 times. The reason I had to do it an extra time is because I failed the final PFA (5 pushups away from passing, dammit!), but I passed it the second time so no worries. Generally speaking, the first 2-3 weeks will be the toughest since you're being introduced to a whole new lifestyle. The quicker the division catches on to the fact that they'll pay for even one guy messing around, the easier things will be. I learned a lot from my Chief, and one of the things he said that stuck with me was "everything you do affects everyone around you". Although this goes along with what I said about just one guy messing around affecting the whole division, it can also be used positively. For example, I would always do my best at everything despite not being very good at doing certain things. This helped motivate several of my shipmates to do their best (I found this out shortly before Battle Stations) as well as give me a hand whenever I had trouble with something.

*09/27/2011 Update* The TV's not for sale anymore as far as I'm aware of, but that could change in the future if my parents decide to try to sell it again. Hey guys! My stepdad is selling our main TV because we're going to get a flat-screen TV for Christmas and need the money for it. Also, it's been with our family for two years and I think that it's time for a change. The TV is still in great working condition too and also comes with a remote and the surrounding shelves. Because of its large size, it's only available for local pickup. I'll work out an arrangement with the buyer to meet at a public place so that they can follow me back home to pick up the TV. You can purchase the TV from either eBay or Craigslist and it's first come first serve so whoever buys it first will get it. Happy bidding to all!!
