These past 2 days have been super awesome at the academy! Yesterday I heard from J around 9pm. They had classes all day, then range in the afternoon and evening! J has been doing so well at the academy, I'm so proud of him. He had his vehicle code test and got 92%! He said 16 of his classmates failed that test though, yikes. In the afternoon, they went to range and had pistol qualifications. In order to pass, you had to hit the target 43/50 times at different distances with different shooting styles and J hit the target 49/50 times!!! Later that evening, they went out to the range and did some night shooting- literally just a flashlight to light the way. We didn't talk too much last night because of their late night and all the things he had to do before bed. This morning I woke up from a test from J- they were getting ready to go light the roads for the SENIOR'S CAPITOL RUN! I instantly jumped on Facebook and saw a live stream of the festivities. I went back to sleep for a little bit, then saw a news clip about the run and its tradition. It was especially emotional today considering they run to the fallen officers memorial at the Capitol building and a fellow CHP officer just passed away. J said even he got a little emotional as the seniors ran past them and they all cheered. He also said it was really nice that the families out there were cheering for the juniors and saying things like "you got this cadets. Stay strong! That'll be you guys soon". Just thinking about that makes me so hopeful and excited. J only has a little over 2 months and then he graduates! Ah I can't wait.
Anyways, I heard from J around 4pm when he sent me a picture of his face... HE GOT OC SPRAYED AND DIDN'T EVEN TELL ME! Poor J, his face was all red, and his eyes were super bloodshot. He said it sucked and his face was on fire. He had Wednesday Liberty, so he got food, then we talked after I got off work. We're super excited for this weekend- 3 DAY WEEKEND BABY! I want us all to have fun this weekend because afterwards- J is going to need to buckle down to stay on track to graduate and earn the title as seniors 👮🏽. We're almost there y'all. Stay positive!
87 days down.. 107 to go!!
💚 AJ
