Yes, there will be a boxed dinner provided. Usually a turkey and cheese sandwich, chips, a cookie, and an apple.

@ARandomMid Hey, I'm a plebe too right now. I just wanted to reach out and say that you are not alone, and feel free to reach out if you ever need someone to vent to. This week was SO long for me. There were some really great, exciting things too. But it was rough. And I am exhausted. I...

Hey, I am a current plebe (currently taking a short break from cramming for my 12-week cyber exam tomorrow), and I also started thinking about applying when I was in 9th grade. To add on to all of the other great suggestions, my advice would be to learn how you learn. Develop your study habits...

It is a high plank.

Definitely run (a lot) but also practice the front leaning rest (a lot). I ran before Plebe Summer and that helped out for sure, and I was decent at push-ups, but the front leaning rest kicked my butt for the first couple of weeks before I adapted to it.

I am so happy to hear that! Seriously, reach out whenever. Even after plebe summer and beyond. Let me know if you need a better way to contact me than on here, too.

I was thinking the same thing. If @Plebe2be is up for it, I'd like to meet up too. Dragomir is right...you are not alone. Not one little bit. Also, I don't think the pm will work even after 5 messages though because I think you also need to have had the account for at least a week on top of...

Hey, I am also a plebe to be (in Annapolis too, currently) and I don't have all of the experience or the incredible advice to give you that others have offered already. I don't have any perfect answers. But what I can do is let you know that you are not alone. I am terrified about this too...

Thank you for the responses. These are some really great ideas. One of my siblings is just a couple years younger than I am and there is a 6 year gap between the other one. I am worried about how this will affect them both, for different reasons.

Does anybody have any tips/ideas for maintaining contact and relationships with younger siblings? Anything I should make sure to be doing in the last several days before I-Day?

As far as important documents go...what exactly should we bring to I-Day? Social security card? Passport? Birth certificate? I want to bring what I am supposed to but I also don't want to risk things potentially being lost unnecessarily.

It looks like it is back up and running now.

It isn't working for me either.

Thank you. You just put a big smile on my face. Go Navy, indeed!
