minimum physical requirements for the united states marine corps:
3 pull ups
1.5 mile run in under 13 minutes and 30 seconds
44 sit ups in under 2 minutes.



accomplished requirements:
1.5 miles in 13 minutes and 26 seconds.
44 sit ups in under a minute.
have yet to attempt the pull ups (need somewhere to do so.)


so far im meeting the requirements.i did the 1.5 mile run just now,starting at 5:18 and finishing at 5:31,narrowly acheiving the required time.as for the sit ups i do those earlier tonight,clocking in at 45 sit ups in under 50 seconds.to get ready for the pull ups ive started doing push up warm up sessions,doing 15 push ups in under 30 seconds ever other hour.i just started the push up regiment at around 10 pm,so,so far ive done only about 45 push ups,missing two chances to try and catch some sleep this morning.ive failed to catch any sleep so i decided to see if i was up to the running requirment.i didnt think i would make it,and usually i cant run for shit;but something just kept me going and didnt let me get exhuasted,its hard to explain;its like this swelling and incomprehinsible sense of willpower,i was literally shouting in my mind and muttering under my breath (as to not wake the neighborhood) "God damnit,feet you will not fail me now,i will not run out of breath,by my honor i declare i WILL be a marine!and no lousy run is gonna stop me!" Well apparently it worked,i made the run with few seconds to spare,narrowly making it on the last 30 seconds by some crazy miracle of pushing my body into a sprint despite my exhuastion and the aching in my legs.

I've never sweat so much in my life,but i feel wonderfull,better then ive ever felt before.its a strange feeling,im exhuasted yet not tired,like i want to keep going,to keep pushing my body to its limit and past that limit.when i was running and reaching the one mile point my heart was beating so loud i could hear it over the sound of my panting,the blood pumping faster and faster through my veins and urging me to keep going while at the same time wanting me to just pass out.I wasnt about to give up,all i could think about is my mother giving me an "i told you so" look.she doesent think i can do it,and now she has given me the motivation to become something greater then ive ever accomplished before.With today's routines finished im no longer worried about boot camp,today i feel like there is no obstacle i cant over come.except tj's roof.that thing is fucking impossible to climb.

anyway im gonna start recording in my ET diary my progress physiclly and mentally wise as i prepare for my potential leave for boot camp.ive made up my mind now and i know what i want to do.friends,im gonna become a marine.

IF you get more than 30 you're paranoid.
If you get 10 or less you're fearless.
People who don't have any are dummies who want people to think they are tough stuff.

I enrolled in a school called full sail for my game developers bachelor degree,the total cost of the course is 61,000 dollars and im currently in a bit of a bind trying to pay for it.im moving out to orlando on my own to start on september 25th and i still havent figured out how to pay living expenses plus 6,000+ dollars a month for tuition.Well today i had an interveiw with a marine recruiter that offered that i join the reserve and delay college for a few months while i train.once out of training i can attend school regularly and have all expenses paid off by the marines.it seems like a simple enough choice but ive already paid for enrollment and what not and im not sure how much more it will cost to delay the start date,plus i have pressure from the family to consider.any advice?

It's 2 am and i have been trying to sleep for 2 hours now..but i cant..random thoughts of different places and people,who i am,who i was,and who i will be flood my mind and keep me awake.rolling side to side in my bed and closing my eyes as tight i can these day dreams only get louder as they scream into my head and drill into my subconciuos slowly driving me mad.

I'm so tired....so incredibly tired...and no matter how much i sleep it is never enough...every passing day i slip a little more into that black hole in the back of my mind full of lost hopes and dreams,confusion,happiness,sorrow,and whatever maruading thoughts and feelings slip away from my conciuos mind.The voices in my head don't speak to me anymore...even they left me...there was i time i talked back to them and listened to their words of wisdom that told me about love,friendship,humanity and the universe..but they are gone now..and im slowly slipping into this darkness..this..void..from not even my loudest screams for help can escape...

There is this dream...Were im standing in a feild..maybe a slight bit older then i am..I just stand there smiling under the sun and luaghing,as if i dont have a care in the world..then i grow slightly older..maybe between my 30's and 50's...i stand infront of a large white house standing on a cliff looming over a rocky beach..All i can do is stare off into the peaceful cloudy dark evening sky and listen to the sound of the ocean,and i couldnt feel any more peacefull..then i grow older...much older..as if im nearing my end...and i am an old man...on my knees in a damp cold and dark room...and i cant stop crying..hell if i know why i am crying,or why i cant stop..but there is this uncontrollage surge of sorrow in my mind thats so horrible i cant stop crying and screaming and balling no matter how hard i try...then..i slowly slip into black,and i wake up...and try to go back to sleep only to be stuck awake for a few more hours before i pass out and let the dream restart...

It has been like that for a very long time now...the same dream or odd variations of it amongst many other visions of gritty dark clouded cities and raining,being alone fighting with myself and some unknown force,crying uncontrollably for no reason and stricken into weakness with my own sorrow..and then...i dream of an open grassy feild that stretches for miles and miles across grassy hills..or being on the beach cliff...those dreams i am in a weird state of calm and what i can only call psuedo happiness...

I dont know what it all means..and i wish it would all go away...all i know..is that im tired...god am i so tired...but sometimes i wonder....if i ever woke up...

Man,i need a drink...or 5...or 10...life's a bitch ya know?dont take your time in highschool for granted,enjoy it all to hell,the real world brings you a little more freedom,but you quickly lose it again when your bogged down by a social system based around the almighty dollar,long gone are the days of adventure,discovery,and all other things that make you feel alive.as you slip into your business suit and go into another day of typing away in a cubicle it will hit you eventually that this is all bullshit,humans werent meant to deal with this crap,however due to our natural urge to live a life of comfort we are compelled to continue this afront to nature,to sit here and satisfy our greed with the life of a sloth,our only animation being to slave over little coins and sheets of paper to buy more crap to keep the cycle going.

there is no way to end it,no way to break free,take head,for you are all doomed to an eternity of disappointments,broken dreams and hearts,and having the life drained out of you with repetitive meaningless work.sure,there are the lucky ones with "dream jobs" or rich people,but deep down,they feel it to.its not even legal anymore to be human,we are all forced by society into these cramped homes,were we slowly evolve to be accustomed to being in cages built with our own hands,sustaining a life of consenstual slavery for our own survival and self gratitude.Gone are our days when nature provided for us and we provided for nature,gone are the days were a man could be a man and make up his own mind on what he wanted to do,day in and day out,and live with the consequences of his actions knowing that he indeed made that decision without influence.gone are the days of freedom,replaced with tv,soap operas,oil,guns,and machines all built by ourselves to turn us into our own slaves,a perpetual circle made completly of our own inept desire for comfort through uncomfort.

why do i write all this?i dont know,maybe i had one of those lapses,the ones everyone gets,were for a split second,we get a taste of what it is like to be a human again.for thousands of years its slowly been repressed into non-existance except for that glimmer of a second were we can feel total bliss and true happiness in our own sunny feild in our mind,a vast land were we make our own destinies and every day is a new adventure.but then you wake up,and you realize every day is the same routine,there are no feilds,just wirling roads that lead you to your worthless task to continue the cycle and ensure the schedule of the next day.fight against the system and die,live with the system and your not much more alive anyway.

the point of this all is for you folks getting ready to hit the real world,those who are already here,and those far away from it.learn this truth soon,and maybe it wont hurt as much when you actually arive...
