Appointee Season

Once again it that time of the year.
When those “fortunate” few who have gotten the acceptance papers come to spend the day with a cadet.
The first question we ask them is…
“Have you signed your life away yet”
We’re all happy for them,
They got what they’ve been wanting for so long.
Or have they?

Little do they realize that within two month’s time,
They will have one more thing in common with the Cadet Wing.
Even tough they’ll just be basics.
They will hate their lives.
Yet they will continue to stay.

It’s hard to think that one year ago,
I was one of them.
An innocent civilian with delusions that this place would be the greatest thing that every happened to me.
Maybe it will once I get out,
But not now.

Nonetheless,
It is appointee season,
And that makes life interesting.
Mainly because they bring weird weather with them.

I didn't post this to discourage anyone from coming here.
It'll be worth it in the end.

I did not draw the comic.
Another cadet did.
He goes by "Oh Snap!" on the web.
He publishes under this name to prvent the leadership from getting ahold of him.
His stuff isn't always in line with what they like.

Mmmm... sounds like me and med school, but thankfully I could drop out.

Keep at it, Jason! We're all cheering for you!
