Studying for BWC

I've been sitting up late like this in my bed for the past four days studying for the board of the Best Warrior Competition happening this weekend (January 8-9).  I am soooooo tired right now it's not funny.  It's 2:04am...  Tomorrow morning I have to report to my unit to do mock sessions of going before the board in terms of the procedures and then the oral questioning on various subjects of Army knowledge.  The latter is the part that has had me stressed out.  The good part is that SSG Amaya, one of my detachment squad leaders, assured me that the board is aware of me having just graduated as a new soldier and will be asking basic questions.  Phew!  But still in the back of my mind, I know to plan for the worst, hope for the best. *fingers crossed, saying lots of prayers* It's just how I'm wired. lol  

Stay tuned!

Day 9: Finally woke up at 4:30am

Day 9: Last week I set two alarms two begin waking me at 4:30am. Today I finally woke up when the alarm sounded. Prior to this morning, I was sleeping soundly through the alarm blaring in my room until I'd finally awake some time after 6:00am sometimes 8 or 9:00am even. Suffice it to say, the whole point is to get used to being jarred from my sleep at 4:30am.
