Looks like today was my lucky day for having to deal with a sand storm. I think it was even worse than when we were up in Camp New York, too, because it is way hotter too. I was sweating, and the sand was latching onto my face. Pretty sure I'm going to have like 20 zits on my face from that one. It was a rough couple of days of work as well. Well, I guess I can't say that it was anything too difficult. It's just that we would wait for like 2 hours to do something and then either when we were about to do it OR just got it done, someone would tell us that is wasn't supposed to get done! It can really make a person pissy and FAST! I'm not just talking about me either. Some of the most optimistic people are thinking the same negative way I do now. I'm kind of excited for tonight. My new squad is going to do some squad bonding by going to play BINGO here in Zone 1. I didn't even know we had BINGO here! Hopefully, I win some of the "Great Prizes" they have to offer. I was going to drag Andrew alone too, but his brother is here tonight, so he got saved. Nothing much else going on for the rest of the day besides reading some more in my textbook for class. Rachel, I loved the BULK mail I got yesterday! Cass, I can't wait to come up to the cabin. The pictures were lovely. Aaron and Jessica, Congratulations, and I am so happy for you! I wish I could be home for your wedding! I love and miss you all.
