Today was awful. I woke up exhausted from fireguard, then the DS flipped out about our bay being dirty, so he made us wait for a few minutes, then by the time we got down to formation, we were late. For some reason, the universe decided to hate me today, and those of us who were late got put on extra duty for 3 days. That means during our personal time, we get to do whatever the DS says. Usually it’s cleaning stuff. So I’m really pissed off about that right now.
On to today’s real event – qualifying. I shot extremely well for the first 20 rounds, only missing 2. Then for my next magazine, I was having problems with it loading the bullets. After each bullet was fired, I had to slap the magazine to kick the bullet into the chamber. I still only missed 1 target on the prone unsupported, but then on kneeling I missed 3 more. I think I started getting frustrated, so I lost my focus. I hit 34 out of 40 targets. Just 2 off expert… so close. Oh well, I have one more chance at it, and plus, it’s the second highest score in my platoon so far.
Anyway, I’m going to bed. Let’s see if I can reach expert tomorrow…
