Fearless: Take N◘te

What to Do/Know Before Joining the Army:
1.  Decide if your hair is going to work for you while you're at the Camp.

2.  Exercise before you join. It is VERY IMPORTANT! Training is very tough if you are not a little physically fit when you get there. You don't need to be superwoman or anything, but at least give your muscles a little bit of training so the shock factor won't be so high. Basic Training is, on all levels, a rather high stressed affair, so be ready for it. There are physical ability standards that you must pass in order to graduate Basic Training. The Army's Physical Training Test is different than the other military branches tests. The test examines the soldier's ability to do pushups, situps, and a two mile run. The pushups and situps are each under a time limit of two minutes. The first test is the pushups, followed by situps, and then the two mile run. The pass/fail standards are based on age and gender.

3.  Ask Questions and gain answers. Definitely find someone who is in the Army branch you are interested in, and find someone who has no monetary interest in what you decide. I don't care what the recruiter's say; they do twist the truth when it benefits them. I know because I got a bad recruiter among some better recruiters. I just wasn't lucky. Also, if that doesn't persuade you, an acquaintance of mine did recruiting, and it was confirmed that they do get benefits based on recruits gained.

4.  Break your habits now before you ship out to Basic Training. It will make your time there much less terrible. Smoking, drinking alcohol, snacking, taking naps etc, are all habits that plague trainees during training. If you break your habits, you'll be that much closer to just breezing through Basic Combat Training.

5.  Don't stress over the Drill Sergeants. They yell, dish out their punishments, and play mind-games; but they won't physically harm you. Everything is done according to what you can withstand, physically and mentally. If you can endure everything they throw at you and come out on top, then you are worthy to be a Soldier.


6.   Note: living conditions may be tough compared to your usual standard of living. So enjoy nice living conditions while you can, because if you join the military sometimes you won't get the best living conditions one would hope for. One thing most soldier's learn: never take anything for granted.

Para kanino nga ba ako?

Para kanino nga ba ako? Para kanino ako nabubuhay? Madaming beses ko na iyong naitanong sa sarili ko, Pero di ko matagpuan yung sagot… Hanggang sa isang araw, Sa paghahanap ng kasagutan, Dun ko naramdaman yung rason ko, Kung bakit ako inilagay sa mundo, Bakit nga ba hindi ako sa ibang panahon at lugar ipinanganak? Magulo kung iisipin mo pa diba? Pero bawat isa sa atin ay may mahalagang papel sa mundo, Maliit man o malaki, Andyan ka, kasi ikaw lang ang makakagawa nun, Wala ng iba… Kaya buong puso kong sasabihin na: Andito ako ngayun sa lugar kung saan, Perpektong plinano ng diyos   ang bawat detalye ng buhay ko J

Di ko kasalanan kung bakit adik ako ngayon sa kape…

tarah kape tayo?  Di ko kasalanan kung bakit adik ako ngayon sa kape…     mas mabuti narin siguro yun kesa sa marijuana o sa shabu ako na- adik. Di ko kasalanan kung bakit adik ako ngayon sa kape…  sisihin nyo yung nakaimbento na pwede palang lantakan ang kape at di sa ibang bagay nagiging kapakipakinabang. Di ko kasalanan kung bakit adik ako ngayon sa kape… tuwang – tuwa naman yung pinag bibilhan ko ng kape, mantakin mung tatlong beses o mahigit pang baso ng kape ang naiinum ko araw – araw. Di ko kasalanan kung bakit adik ako ngayon sa kape… ♪♫♪ “nais kung mag beer house ngunit kulang ang pera, kaya’t nagkakape nalang dagdag pa sa kaba...... " ♪♫♪ yka nga ng siakol, “substitute products” – sabi ng microeconomics prof. namen, kapag mas mababa daw ang presyo ng “substitute products” kupara sa aktwal na produktong nais mung bilhin, bababa ang “demand” sa aktwal na produkto at tataas naman ang “demand” para sa “substitute products...

Pwerte an lipot. Dawa biyu an pagsuksuk mu sa gilid,  alagad patus – patus ka  nin tamung, habang inuubos mu an tinimplang kape sa saimung  baso, an saimung hinangus putol – putol na nagluluwas asin an durus dae nag babago, naluluum ka sa kadikluman,kawsa kan kawaran kan ilaw, pinipirit mu man itikup an saimung malsuk, an saimung tulak man an biyung nagriribuk,nag aagrangay sa kulog. Mala kaya ta an saindung sinapna abut lang Pangudtuhan,  kaya kape na sana an Saindung pinamangihan… Kape na harus pa sana, asukar na sana an lasa. An mga bura kan talapang,nagdararalagan na kinu sa atup, yaun pa an mga lamok na mayong ibang maginibu kundi mangagat sa saimung kublit. Abu ka lamang untukan.  Mala… Namuklat ka man guiraray… Aga na palan,  dae mo na namalayan Na napaturug ka man palan dawa, Nagbuburura si mga talapang, Nagdadaralagan si mga kinu sa saindung atup, Alagad si mga lamuk na dae ka inuntukan, Na nagkawsa ...
