I'll see you guys there after my flight! Good luck to the rest of you. :salute: - Melyssa

Or Buckley's, mm mm good. Hope you shake that cold off, Steve, starting out sick would really suck.

Congrats on getting your call, bud. I start on the 20th, too. :) Thanks for the advice stefwills, I'm trying to keep the 20-25 range on my pushups.

Yeah, you've got a point. Hair is hair. I'll have to visit Mister. Barber (or whoever is supposed to cut hair around there) a few times through BMQ, then. Thanks! Hopefully I can get a chit at some point to let it grow enough to be put in a bun/and or braid. I've got another question, too. I...

Congrats to all of you leaving early, not sure why me and rjr got later dates, but it might be because of where we are. Ah well. I didn't think Moncton was that far from Quebec. I'll be seeing you guys in your slick uniforms.  :P

Thanks, and congrats to you, too! Woops, yeah.  I went to get my package and got it reclarified, since all I heard on my crappy phone was a bunch of dates thrown at me. I'm flying out on the 19th and the course starts on the 20th.  So, we'll be there at the same time.  :P Huaa.

I'll see if I can pick up Minestrin 1/20 or Loestrin 1.5/30 at the local shoppers (if its compatible with Depo Provera). Thanks, INFLAR!  :) I wish I hadn't cut my hair because I might've got the chance to put it in a braid, or if I wasn't allowed to braid it, atleast put it in a small bun...

Hey hey, I got my offer for Infantry with PPCLI. I'm not heading out as soon as you guys, but I'm getting sworn in on the April 17th, and flying out of Moncton on the 20th. Cheers!

Christ, its not even fluffy, crunchy snow anymore, its a frozen tundra. Watch your step.  ::) PS: They import it, so they can laugh as new recruits trudge through the snow, not to mention fall on their behinds.

Keep the puns coming, Helpup.  :P Thanks! Glad some of that's cleared up, gaining a few pounds not bad. Although I wish I stopped the random bleeding/"spotting" before I left to BMQ, I have a feeling I'll be bringing a case-full of tampons. I guess everyone's body reacts to it differently and...

Agh, I don't think I'll make it to my third shot. Your periods stopped completely after it? Sorry sorry! I must be mistaken then, I wasn't sure if you were speaking from experience or not. I just spoke from the fact that I'd had friends who weren't in the best of shape that complained about...

The only ones I've seen that have gained weight from using Depo Provera were already overweight, or did no physical activity. So, if anyones worried about gaining weight, I wouldn't. Although, I don't think it works as well as my family doctor told me it would. The annoying random bleeding IS...

Hey, you still might! My buddy just got a call two days ago, he's swearing in on the 19th and leaving the 29th. You might still get a call. They told me they were calling today or tomorrow to see if the BackCheck came through, and hopefully I'll get merit listed and everything will go real fast...

Oi, I applied in October.  ;) Well, sticking in there is all we can do, besides keep working out and reading up on our history and BMQ horror stories. Scorching71, glad you got your call! Hopefully some of us meet you there, and good luck. SoldierInTheMaking, lemme know if you get the call in a...

Ha, I did the same thing. I called three times in a row and left jumbled messages. Today I finally got a hold of someone though, so you might want to try calling again. ;) Lady luck beat me with a bat again, because apparently BackCheck didn't get a hold of any of my references (which wasn't...

Darn, I probably won't be seeing you guys there then (unless I catch you guys halfway through, 4 more days until I'm supposed to get a call)! Good luck to both of you, and happy flight.  ;) Cheers :salute:

Bru, I forgot about swimming, too. Hopefully I can renew my YMCA membership, or crack the ice over my pool and polar bear it. Oh yeah, for everyone looking to keep themselves busy while waiting for the infamous BMQ call, here's a nice site: http://www.crossfit.com/ R.S. Glad to know we might...

Gossen, Lemme know if you get that call, eh? Here's hoping for you. Lil_T, The waiting games pretty tiring, but at least it gives us more time to prep and get our asses in shape. Just keeeep swimmin', just keep swimmin'.  :P

Bad luck's beating me with a stick. File got closed while I was sending the rest of my requested papers up to Ontario, but its all cleared up. Then I had to re-open it and sign an extra handful of papers from BackCheck. Woohoo. The jolly guy at the recruiters office told me I'd be 14 days before...

Man, you guys are lucky! ;) I'm still sitting tight after sending the rest of my med docs, should take a few weeks for snail mail. Maybe I'll get there with you guys in Jan?
