  ROTC Making it difficult to stay awake during classes

  ROTC is a ton of fun and I love it to death so far. However this past week i've had to battle sleep every single minute of every class that I have. I go to bed early (9:30 or 10, wake up at 5:10).
  
  Anybody have any suggestions on how to stay awake? I would prefer not having to resort to caffeine.

  College

  Well college began monday for me and let me tell you that it is all that I thought it could be and more. I dont think I have had so much fun in one week ever before. I have found a good balance between focusing on ROTC/Class and going out and having fun. It's cool how everybody here is willing to meet people and wanting to make new friends. 70% of my school is made up of girls too and that statement alone speaks for itself. I received a perfect score on my first APFT and I plan on pushing my score into the extended scale next test. The weather hasn't been the best because of Hurricane Fay though, however it's not holding us back from going out and having fun. There are pretty dangerous ghettos not too far outside of the campus which you have to be careful of but it's all okay as long as you walk through them in big groups of people. Last night we had to walk some girls through the ghetto after a party (sort of like rape prevention) which I thought was kind of funny. I think I am going to have a blast these next 4 years and I look forward to it.

  2 Weeks left.

  Quick update about the girlfriend, we broke up it's over and I've already gotten over it. Anyways, College and my ROTC training begins in 2 weeks and im pretty excited. Right now i'm working on filling out my army contract which is pretty annoying but whatever.. Until then I'm going to workout hard these next 2 weeks. My first APFT is on August 19th. I think i should get a perfect score, if not then close to it.
