Today I had to do the hardest thing asked of any lab tech. I had to run legal blood alcohols on 5 people in my unit, and most of them are my friends. See we are not allowed to drink in this lovely place. Well, they were. And me being a lab tech I had to run them without cheating for them. I tell you dudes. That was really hard to give out the correct results. But you can all continue to be proud of me because I did give out the correct results. Those poor guys are going to loose a lot coming soon. Stuff like rank, money and time.
I really don't see why anyone would want to drink here. Because think about. WE ARE IN A WAR ZONE!!! For most that should be enough, but I guess not for those guys. You have to think what if we got attacked or if we a Mass Cal. You would be totally incapable of doing your job with your full ablities. Guess they forgot to think about that, huh.
I am so proud of my cousin Liz, here she is with some crappy disease and she has a better, and happier outlook on life than most healthy people I know. Every time I talk to I think, "Wow, I wish I had that kind of courage." Plus, she still manages to go to school full time, I think to be a teacher. She is also lucky beacause lives in one of the music capitols of the world. Thanks Liz for being an inspiration to me. You are the reason I am here, I know that if you could you would be here helping me, help soldiers. I love you.
