I’m not going to lie I was nervous; I had no idea what was in-store for me. Jump school consists of three weeks: Ground week, Tower week and Jump week. On 18 October 2008 a Friday night I Left Fort Leanordwood Missouri a young 18 year old Soldier headed to FT. Benning GA for JUMP SCHOOL. Just completing basic training and advanced individual training I was thin, weighed about 160 at 5’11’’ that’s not much, not an ounce of fat on my body (from being starved for 22 weeks), but I was ripped and I knew I could handle the task in front of me. That night we arrived at Benning after 14 long, grueling hours on a greyhound bus.
We gutted them and fried them—delicious, I must say. It was then we sat and talked over the plans for the next day. Those two weeks were difficult. I had to do everything from scratch, even build my own out house. I had to carry water, find berries, get wood for the fire, dry out wet clothes from a night of rain, even mend things that broke, like my fishing pole.
November 30, 2011 Supersize Me People are often drawn by curiosity to experiment with various activities in their lives. In the movie Supersize Me Morgan Spurlock decides to experiment with his own health. He got the idea for the documentary after watching the news about two teenage girls who were suing McDonald’s for making them obese. To discover the true harms of the fast food industry, Spurlock goes on a 30 day long McDonald’s binge. He allows himself to eat nothing but the unhealthy food from this restaurant for a whole month abiding by certain regulations.
His wife was doing the weigh ins, so she helped me. As I walked towards her I remember the night before being told not to eat before I weigh in. Luckily, I it was early and we haven’t even ate. Also the matches didn’t start till around three or four, so I had the time to eat some grub. I had to take off my big shirt to take off some wait.

I was warned not to talk to too many people because there are many thieves and killers. I have heard many stories of people leaving for the Silk Road and never coming back Day 93 I took a lot longer than I had planned to get through the mountains. Food was scarce and I only met one person in the last 63 days. He was an interesting man we talked about our lives I told him about home and he told me about masulipatam, the city he was from and about his family. As the night went on we talked about more philosophical things such as our faith.
I have a large empty house on top of Brickmore Hill, which I have been trying, unsuccessfully, to sell since 1995. It used to be a fraternity house for members of the Brickmore College baseball team, but on October 31, 1995, the boys at the frat had a Halloween Party that ended tragically. I prefer not to say anything about that party because the details are extremely gruesome. The sad fact of the matter is that, for 13 years, I have been unable to sell the house, and I am trying to keep it from falling into disrepair. On past Halloweens, the local kids have broken windows, and worse, so I need someone to stay there the whole night to make sure no harm comes to my building.

No telegraph ever came and search team set out on February 20th to find them.
Sam said that he was not ready to go home yet and his father said he could stay for a few more months. One month later his family came back and got him. They stayed in the Catskill Mountains to live. This story of survival taught me that kids could live in the wild, but it would be tough. I liked the book because it taught me some survival tips.
According to my father an immigrant himself, said that approximately about two hundred people cross over each night. Some less than one hundred do not make it because of The “Rio Grande” and because of dehydration and hunger. They have no choice but to continue walking without any water or food for days. When they see the border patrol they have to run quick and find a spot to hide. Sometimes the (Coyotes) just leave them anywhere or turn them into ICE (Immigration & Customs Enforcement) to get more money than expected.
