good luck lad. the nerves and shitting bricks are normal, all the way till the point of actually getting to barracks - keep telling yourself that.
get stuck in, take on board it all but dont stress if your not sponging it up straight away. keep on top of your admin and try not to fanny about with it too late into the night - you WILL need your kip, to keep you a happy bunny. maintain your sense of humour and shrug off any 'nastiness' from your instructors - its all apart of 'the game'. be a do'er not a stand at the back'er or a sitter on the fence'er. get noticed for the right things, i.e fitness,fieldcraft, skill at arms and fitness - did i say fitness?? dont get noticed for being jack or a mong or a jack mong - not good amongst your mates and not good for your instructors.
good luck mate all the best.
