Army BCT: What To Pack

[Music] hey y'all welcome back to my channel if you're new here welcome welcome if you're oh gee what's poppin it's nice to see you um so i'm gonna try to make this quick um this will probably be my last video for a while because i'm shipping out to basic training on sunday and i just wanted to show y'all what you should pack if you're going to basic training so of course you should have your bag which i have my bag i love this bag it's so cute um i guess this is going to be cured well i guess anybody can watch this really but um i guess for guys that are watching just disregard like the underwear and the girly stuff but anyways so everything had to be in ziploc bags so i bought these 10 gallon blad bags and um i put everything in them so i bought socks and i what i did was i put a week and a day's worth of everything in my bags because i don't want to run out and i don't know how frequently we can wash clothes so i brought eight pairs of socks eight pairs of underwears let me show you these underwears y'all and i put my name on everything look how big these drawers are look at how some things is huge but i put my name on everything because i heard people steal so hopefully ain't nobody trying to steal no draws but you never know but anyway so i've got my drawers and my socks they said to wear it bring white socks but everything we gonna be wearing is black i feel like that's gonna be weird but i wrote my name on my socks too just in case somebody tries to get me um and then sports bras so i you can only bring like black white or neutral tones and i went to academy sports and i got some good quality sports bras they were eight dollars they were on sale so i got three white ones and three black ones they want you to have sports bras that don't have logos on them so these don't have no logos they're just plain black and i wrote my name because i don't want nobody to steal them also you need a lock don't i wouldn't suggest bringing like a lock that has a key because if you lose the key you're but i brought that lock because i'm not good with combination locks so this one is like the kind that you like just move the dial over and this was like 11 i think at walmart so i got that i oh got envelopes and stamps which i'm about to put in a ziploc bag with my sharpies i bought a black sharpie and a this is supposed to be silver but it's actually gray and i had already put my stamps on my um envelopes i packed 12 um one two three four five six seven eight nine ten eleven twelve oh thirteen i have 13 envelopes with stamps um because the first week i think we get to keep our phones while we're in quarantine and then i figured like two or yeah two letters for every week after that kind of which will be like yeah that kind of equals out something like that so i bought those i haven't had a period in a while because i have birth control um in my arm so but pads and tampons and i'll be putting my tampons in here but in this ziploc i have my tampons my tide pods they tell you to bring six i brought eight because just in case you never know everything has to be unscented so i have some good quality travel size lotion the aquaphor and the aveeno i really shouldn't be using aveeno because you know they're a product of johnson and johnson and you know they products ain't all that great they got cancer-causing stuff in their stuff but i won't die i hope and then i bought body wash travel size body wash deodorant um what is this shampoo [Applause] toothpaste a soap dispenser thing and the only reason why i don't have no soap in there right now is because i have no clue what kind of soap i'm gonna get because everything that i normally use is safer so i have to figure that life and figure that out but until then i'll be using this dove also it wants you to have face masks um i have one two three four five six i bought these on amazon so i have six black face masks they have to be plain they can't have nothing on them then i bought these these are typically what people will use as like headbands but i have locks and so usual like normal ponytail holders do not do good on my hair because they pop because my hair is too thick when i put it in a ponytail so i bought these and also shower shoes about ponytail holders bobby pins and a sock bun but my locks are not long enough to be put in a sock bun just yet but about it just in case everything for your hair must match your hair color so if you have brown hair do not wear blonde ponytail holders um all that good stuff also i'm packing this notebook this notebook this is where i'm gonna write like my letters and stuff and i have my addresses on here it's not a lot of addresses because i don't really have a whole lot of people that i really want to write to um so there's like four people that i'll be consistently writing to while i'm in basic um i'm gonna bring a couple of pens and then of course my phone charger my cell phone my air pods and i'm also going to pack a pair of jeans and a t-shirt um i'm gonna wear some sweatpants and a t-shirt when i am getting ready to go to [Music] um mets where i ship out and stuff but they tell you to bring like one extra change of clothes and so that's what i will be doing and i will be wearing my running shoes so i'm not bringing a whole bunch of stuff with me um it's unnecessary they tell you to bring 50 cash i have the 50 cash i just don't know if i really want to bring it because like what would i need it for but i'm gonna bring it anyways and then also make sure that you bring your documents like your lease and marriage certificates if you're married i'm read your folder from when you went to meps and you signed your contract and all that stuff bring that whole folder with you that has your orders inside of it but that's it you really don't need a whole lot of stuff so just make sure you have that um yeah so that's what i'm packing and wow this is going to be the last time that i talked to y'all for a really long time for about nine weeks so wish me luck and i will see y'all really really soon until next time you
