Culver 101

Picture this:
Marching. Left, left, left, right, right, right, left, Hup! Hup! Military calling step. The cannon shooting off during retreat. The colors passing. Parade Rest. Attention. Unit Commander.
This is stuff for people in the army, right? WRONG. This is stuff for friends. This is something for people who want the best summer ever. Culver Military Academy and Summer Camps.
Want some advice from a teenager at a Military place for six weeks. Remember this:
1. After making your bed the first day (the most pointless chore ever) Don't get in it! Have an extra cover and lay on top of the made bed. Then just fix it in the morning to make it top notch for the GI of the day.
2. Bring shoe good smeller stuff! (Wearing the same gym shoes for 6 weeks not a good smell unless you have shoe deoterant!)
3. Bring two sets of gym shoes (Mud not good)
4. Two pairs of loafers (One for retreat, one for parade)
5. If you find your room a mess for GI just shove the stuff in your dresser! Then it only sucks when you have PI or just keep your room clean
6. Bring a Swifer. Floors get dirty!
7. Roomies if you barely have any laundry wash it together! Save some time!
8. DON'T LET PEOPLE STEAL FOOD THAT IS SPECIAL PERSONAL PROPERTY :)
9. Smile and don't get mad about marching it's not that bad
10. If you aren't used to wearing gym shoes, practice. You want to avoid Blisters and avoid the nickname if possible :) But if you get a lot of Blisters and you acquire that nickname its ok its one of the best possible nicknames
11. Being a third classman is your worst year and if someone calls you a Pleab just say you were one once too! (and if necessary tell them how much they suck at military and rank)
