Q: During the games how did your opinion of Peeta change? A: Oh Peeta what to do with him? I started to dislike him on the train ride to the capitol. He had told Haymitch that he wanted to train alone and I truly believed that he did want to kill me in the games. Even though we were both from District 12, he still had to kill me.
Hurricane My first hurricane was Fran when I lived in Greensboro, North Carolina. I moved there the summer before to start a PhD. I moved there fat and nervous. I have never been so fat or so nervous. I was a child, thick, still, with baby fat.
Lessons Learned Downrange I’ve been deployed 3 times in my military career, and I have learned many lessons on the dos and don’ts of preparing and maintaining myself during deployment. If I had to say my first deployment gave me my greatest experience and lesson learned. It was 2005 January I had joined the regular army six months prior as a private first class. During that six months span we conducted a lot of different training, from how to react to an improvised explosive device to being the point man on the assault team. The war was changing so fast down range and so was our standard operating procedures and how we conduct them.
Looking at my wife on this ride home, as she cried, I knew that our time would be spent trying to get through to our son and fixing the problems. I surprised him at his after school program. He ran crying to me, held me very tight and apologized for not being the man of the house. I stepped back and looked at
When my sergeant arrived he said, “I know it is hot today but, we need to spray paint all our tools plus the boats, so we can distinguish which equipment is ours.” At this point I just wanted to get this task done as quickly as possible, so I could get away from the base and go home to my family and friends. My sergeant was right, it was warmer than it usually had been but, I just kept working thinking about the weekend. I finished around two in the afternoon. I had finally been released for the four day weekend. I was so excited I rushed back to my apartment and jumped in the shower.
-1 year, 1946-47. I worked in the office mon-fri, 9-5 16) How do you feel about war today? - We (the United States) have to keep our nose out of everyone else’s (other countries) business, war is terrible, our country is like the wild west, we just “shoot them up”. If my grandson wanted to join the army I would do everything in my power to talk him out of it. I would not support him because I could not bear the thought of him voluntarily risking his life.
We were going to rule the school, was going to be the best school year of my life. We had so much to look forward too, and we knew that this school year was going to fly by between homecoming, spring break, prom, and graduation; no one knew which was going to leave the most memorable memory. As the school year continued to go in full force, we started to prepare for all of the different activities. The first main event that took place was homecoming, in Germany or at least my high school homecoming is where all of the different sports actually have a home game. It made for a fun filled weekend.
If your done toilet papering by 11 o'clock then your good to go. Otherwise you'd get chased down with a nightstick and a big fine to pay for the next day. Homecoming is the greatest week for high school students. Everyone has a great time including the students and teachers. Our homecoming pep-rally and the float parade had begun on Friday.
I had never been so happy. My dad had gotten home just in time for the 4th of July for God’s sake. The most incredible person to ever grace my presence came home after two years away, doing “army stuff.” Not to mention, I got to tell my friends that MY dad and his best friend were the ones that got to set off the fireworks, so you could call me the coolest kid in town if you wanted. I remember going crazy when my mom told me that, thinking he had done something really special to get that honor, comparable to my dad being awarded the key to the city or something. All the other kids were pretty impressed so I couldn’t have been too misled.
