17 April, Mom & Dad

Hey Mom & Dad
When Graduation comes and everything are you driving or flying cuz you're starting to confuse me down here.  If you're driving, have fun on the way don't make it boring but I gotta say I'm going home as quickly as I can so I'll see you there ;).  If it's not an inconvience I would like to request you send me more pictures and a thing of stamps I'm running out here.  You guys grandma Aunt Stacey and Vince have all written to me for which I'm very greatful for and I hope to receive more.  Hey mom, What's this I hear about you want me to go to exotic places just so you can go there too?  Don't beat Dad up, you know he likes to exaggerate.  anyway time for church almost.  I just wanted to talk to you guys together.  It's starting to hurt being away from you guys for this long, but I'm almost halfway through this stuff.  Learned that the gas chamber and repelling wall is next and we're swimming this week.  Hyman was dropped back form her platoon cuz she couldn't swim but I'm pretty sure I'll pass it otherwise there's something wrong that I need checked right away.  Anyway Initial drill is comin up soon and I've got Kidder telling me it's one of the coolest things here.  Senior says there are only two things that are beautiful on this island;  one is drill and the second is graduation.  Starting week 4 tomorrow, man if you don't think about it, time is flying by soon if I don't break anything.  I hurt my wrist on the way to Pugil Sticks.  We were marching then we were told to run so I start running Caldera is walking the she swings her M16 which hits mine, I trip, I go down thinking catch the weapon.  Wrist hits the deck, weapon lands on my wrist, body lands on weapon.  Get the picture but I didn't drop the M16 or Sgt Gaddis would have been on me for that.  Can we go to Venice Inn when I get back, I will pay but I want a whole bunch of food from there and want to eat there as a family. Though I'll need to stock up the fridge for all the food I want you guys to make.  Today is chicken enchilada and manacotti with Village Inn 7 cheese omlet and chocolate cobbler.
I love you guys,
Bizzy
