Almost time

Monday is the big day, where I head off to SFAS. From what I have been told, I only have 1 shot at this now, so hopefully I am prepared. Ihave browsed this boards for a little bit now, and must say thanks for the good info you guys have up on here. Hopefully in 26 days from now I will be selected.

Didn't you know? If you're late for diner you have to clean up after everyone.

Don't quit. That's all you can do now but that's all you ever need to be successful. If you never quit, it doesn't matter what else happens. At least you can look at yourself in the mirror and know you did your best.
Good Luck.

Stay Focused & Perservere

Good Luck Amato. You have the support of the QP, other SF candidates and even the parents on this board. I know you will not take the opportunity for granted. Let us know how it turns out.
