I saw you at Navy bootcamp!! Went the same day as you. Feb 5 and graduated March 30. Congrats. Pearl Harbor sucked but got better when i went to my ship.
Hey N'Dierra!!!! I love your videos. Just a suggestion: Maybe write your topics / bulletpoints down in order that way you don't forget anything while you're recording. It just helps to make sure that you don't forget to talk about anything. I also have some questions - Do you have any tips for breaking in your boots? - Were you able to keep your head scarf? - How often did you all shower?/ How much time are you given to shower? - How much time are you given to get ready in the morning? - What do you do if you have to use the restroom in the middle of the night? lol. If you could answer any of these questions in any of your next videos that'd be awesome!
Haha yes I love the suggestion. The only thing is I don’t have that much time to make these vids so I try my best to record them and post them quickly whenever I have time ... and yes I’ll make a Q & A vid talking about all your questions !
OMG GIRL! I just graduated bootcamp today. I just want to thank you for your videos and responses to my comments. I appreciate it! I was in a 900 division (Div 936: State Flags)
I saw u in ship 2! I started watching your videos before leaving for bootcamp so when I saw u I did a double take and was freaking out on the inside 😹😹
If she would’ve said hi to you y’all both would have got beat , probably in the snow. The next thing you both would have herd was “ on your 6 pack” !!!
I wanted to so bad! it was in the galley tho, I was in seps 😭 failed my pfa but gonna work hard and try again in 6 months. congratulations on making it through!! 🎉🎉🍾⚓️
Also, pray to GOD they don’t give you orders to Washington. It rains all day probably the worse command. Hopefully you get orders to San Diego or Perl harbor , Norfolk is not that bad.
I was in a 900 Div. 942 Drill Team and we got to march with a snare drum. We thought we was the shit and used to tell other divisions get off out nuts.
Most of the crap you learned in boot camp do not apply to the navy accept military Bearing. A school and the actual fleet is laid back . One quote you will here over and over in the navy is “ its not the navy its the people” . You’ll know exactly what that mean in a year into the fleet just watch. Remember I told you that first. .
Is it a must that you get your wisdom teeth pulled even if the dentist tell you they’re growing in fine or already in ? Because I don’t have problems with mine
I’m struggling I need everyone’s opinion. I wanna be a marine but at the same time I feel like the navy is best for me (I don’t wanna be a corpsman though). I really really wanna be a marine because that honor and feeling of being one is really pushing me to be better and want to become a marine. But on the other hand i don’t want the title of sailor but the navy has the only MOS I’m interested in (AIRR) what do I do.
@@lifewithjules4236that would be super dope!!! I'm always looking in the comment to see if I can't find anyone who's close or has the same date lol. Where are you shipping out from?
@@lifewithjules4236shut up Fort Lee? Aww man I decided to stay at Ft Meade, Lee was going to do a courteous ship out for me since I live in Va Beach now but I say I'll just go back to Meade in Maryland. I started my process at the MEPS in Maryland because I was living in Northern VA at the time.
How’d I deal with the weather ?! Lmao I never really fully got used to it. I got rashes on my thighs and arms from it being so F***** cold in there lol but your body will slowly start adjusting to it
This is also the question I would like to ask. About the weather. LOL! I hurt my knee before while playing soccer. Its okay now but last winter its hurting. Am I disqualified in joining the navy?
Do they ask about spring ankles? Will that hold a person back? Could someone get a wavier? Or what? I sprung my ankle a long time ago and don’t have issues with it.
How much was your first check??? How was the gas chamber??? Why can't we walk on the track???? Please elaborate I love your videos. Helping me A LOT!!!! I leave in August, OS.
I’ll be talking about your first two questions in my next vid. But I say don’t walk on the track because that could be the reason you fail the run ! Always at least keep a slight jog going but don’t walk you gotta stay motivated.
@@ndierra Oh okay! And one more question. When you were on the way to boot camp, did you wear your hair in the military bun like at meps, or was it down?
I ship in May and do have smal locs and don't want to cut them. Did you see any females with single braids or kinky twist in their hair and put in a bun? Also can you bring like a small purse with you with your items in it such as your makeup and wallet in it?
No purse. But you can have a wallet the size of your palm. They don’t allow locs in the Navy. If you google navy hair regulations this picture will pop up with all the different ways you can wear it. But if you have hair out of regulation they will make you fix it in Bootcamp.

What did you dislike the most about bootcamp. I was the show ship. Ship 12.
My wife has been in boot camp for 10 Days so far. I hope she’s out of the pearl already. Received her box; waiting on the form letter now.
I ship out April 19th.... Most nervous on the run and push ups. :/ Hope I'll do fine.
JB BESLER are you a sailor now?
@@Manu-gq5ke lmao
Are you a sailor now though?

You should’ve said Hi !!!!!

P days was like 1-2 days for me. I was a push division. It was horrible the first night of arrival 🤦🏽♂️
William Collazo What is a push division? You guys have it better or worse?
Lex Banks worse. Push divisions are when they don’t have enough people to fill a division so you have to wait until the next group comes in
HOO YAH SHIP 02! I was in a triple threat and it was liiit. Div. 928 !
Also, pray to GOD they don’t give you orders to Washington. It rains all day probably the worse command. Hopefully you get orders to San Diego or Perl harbor , Norfolk is not that bad.
It doesn’t really rain that much here. It’s sunny most of the time
Great video. Hope to see you & your sis in the fleet!
I was in a 900 Div. 942 Drill Team and we got to march with a snare drum. We thought we was the shit and used to tell other divisions get off out nuts.
your barracks look really nice compared to others ive seen
It is nice ! They were built in 2011 which is still fairly new for a barracks room.
Hi! i ship off in about 8 days, any extra advice for nervousness ?
Thanks boot camp on 26th Rate:OS
Are we able to have things such as Shea Butter for your skin or lotions or will they tell us to send it home?
You’ll have to send it home.but you can have your family mail it to your ship
If I remember correctly I don't have to get the peanut butter shot, because I'm allergic to penicillin.
You won’t get a shot but you’ll get a pill (idk what type of pill it is)
Do they do another hearing and eye depth perception test ?
Does getting your wisdom teeth removed there set you back in training ?
Your arms wasn’t sore from the shots ? 😬 shit that’s one thing I’m scared bout my arms being sore and ima struggle on my pushups 😭
After getting shots do push ups so they don't lock up
I keep getting knee issues when running I’m concerned
Do you remember what day of Pdays they get their shots?
Most of the crap you learned in boot camp do not apply to the navy accept military Bearing. A school and the actual fleet is laid back .

King X true boot camp goggles come off real quick
How to go to Ship 2?
This is going to sound stupid but I’m scared of my blood pressure being high from being nervous and them thinking something is wrong with me 😂
SO FUNNY WHEN YOU SAY PEANUT BUTTER SHOT . THAT SHIT RIGHT THERE . LOL
Is it a must that you get your wisdom teeth pulled even if the dentist tell you they’re growing in fine or already in ? Because I don’t have problems with mine
Did you say swim on P days?
Do all ROTC kids get put in a 900 division or only some?
I’m struggling I need everyone’s opinion. I wanna be a marine but at the same time I feel like the navy is best for me (I don’t wanna be a corpsman though).

I ship out May for Corpsman! So glad there is another female who can elaborate on this rate and their experience
I ship May 6th and got HM too!!!!!
Cee Cee Farmer that’s awesome girl! You may be in my division or a sister division. I found another girl shipping May 8th for HM
@@lifewithjules4236that would be super dope!!! I'm always looking in the comment to see if I can't find anyone who's close or has the same date lol. Where are you shipping out from?
Cee Cee Farmer haha same. Shipping out of VA wbu?
@@lifewithjules4236shut up Fort Lee? Aww man I decided to stay at Ft Meade, Lee was going to do a courteous ship out for me since I live in Va Beach now but I say I'll just go back to Meade in Maryland. I started my process at the MEPS in Maryland because I was living in Northern VA at the time.
Can you please elaborate on this “peanut butter shot” sounds scary lol
Haha I’m making a vid on it just so I can elaborate on it !
Aye are u in great lakes I was in 923 y'all were my senior div I think
No I’m at HM-A School
Heeeey I love my running shoes
Hey N’dierra! I’m so anxious to see the next video 😁 how long into arriving at bootcamp did you have to do the initial running test?
We took it 2 weeks after arriving
N'Dierra Cool, thanks!
Did they give you winter uniforms?
how did you deal with the weather in chicago
How’d I deal with the weather ?! Lmao I never really fully got used to it. I got rashes on my thighs and arms from it being so F***** cold in there lol but your body will slowly start adjusting to it
This is also the question I would like to ask. About the weather. LOL! I hurt my knee before while playing soccer. Its okay now but last winter its hurting. Am I disqualified in joining the navy?
Do they still weigh you or tape you during P days?
Yes
What you do with your cell phone. After bootcamp do you get your box back or is that shipped home?
All your personal items are shipped home
How mAny pushups and crunches are you supposed to do?
Did you use a certain method to learning your general orders?
I focused on the first 5 first. Then once i was confident and knew them verbatim I would add 2 more to the list and so on and so forth
Do they ask about spring ankles? Will that hold a person back? Could someone get a wavier? Or what? I sprung my ankle a long time ago and don’t have issues with it.
Paige Molder lmao spring ankles. You’ll be fine.
How often are p days
How much was your first check??? How was the gas chamber??? Why can't we walk on the track???? Please elaborate I love your videos. Helping me A LOT!!!! I leave in August, OS.

N'Dierra Thank you so much for answering me.😊 And thank you for the advice. I look forward to your future videos.
Aww, I’m a OS to but I leave in May @Nikisha Abrahams

See you there
Could you explain more about the running part?
Check out my initial run video
N'Dierra yeah I watched it last night! Thanks
Did you bring your phone with you to boot camp?
Yes but I had to send it back home on the 1st day
@@ndierra Oh okay! And one more question. When you were on the way to boot camp, did you wear your hair in the military bun like at meps, or was it down?
In a bun, try to not have any attention called to you lol
Did you say they beat you ???
Beat= punishment through exercise
I ship in May and do have smal locs and don't want to cut them. Did you see any females with single braids or kinky twist in their hair and put in a bun?
Also can you bring like a small purse with you with your items in it such as your makeup and wallet in it?

N'Dierra Thank you!!!🙌
Did you get ranked up in bootcamp?
nope. I didnt study the Dep test info like i shouldve
What's your rate in the navy?
Hospital corpsman
I'm Early *Great Tips*
