Phone call 3/4/07

Hey I got a call from Chris today, right after church. He said he is doing well. He sounds so much better too. He is learning unarmed combat. Things like they do in the Ultimate Fighter Competetions, although not the punches. He said he shouldn't end up with a black eye or anything like that. He is learning sleeper holds, mounting moves, and self defence. He told me that he would teach me some moves when he gets home. LOL. :) On Saturday night they actually got to watch an old UFC match. Randy Couture vs. Chuck Liddell. Crazy, because on Saturday night my family watched the live show with Randy Couture vs. Tim Silvia.
I sent him more sets of garments, because he wasn't able to always get laundry done every week and was having to rewear them. Eww! I also sent him pictures but he hasn't received those yet.
He said that he actually got 3rd out of 13 in his squad, but those ranks are voted on by his peers and drill sergents. He likes his drill sergents. They keep teaching them stuff while they are cleaning "the bay" instead of just wasting that time. I don't know what "the bay" is. He has another physical fitness test on Monday or Tuesday and is going to try and push himself harder. He would like everyone to pray for him and wish him luck.
He said he misses everyone and for me to send you all his love.

Sounds like he's doing fairly well. Is he still on track for an April 6 graduation?

I hope to find that out on this upcoming Sunday. He said he will let me know how he did on his physical test. And that will tell me if he will probably be graduating on time or not.
