As most of you know (maybe all by now I'm not sure) I have been considering joining the military. I've been doing research, talking to recruiters, and trying to decide if this is what I want to do. Well it is indeed what I want to do. After a lot of consideration I have decided on the Marine Corps. I had an appointment with SSgt. Moore today ( Read more... )

I've been lonely lately, but not the kind of lonely that friends can fix. It's the only major thing wrong right now, I'm passing my classes and I have a job that I love and I'm doing well there. I've also been doing a lot of thinking about the Marines and what my parents told me to do...which would be to go in now to get the most out of it and ( Read more... )

Today has rocked my world. I didn't get much sleep last night so I've been really tired but that's my only complaint. I got up, went to class, got my Intro to Am. Gov. test back, and I got an 81%, and I did get the bonus right Mike! It was two people, Hamilton and Franklin, that weren't president on the U.S. Currency. I got home and my ( Read more... )

Things are going good I guess. Class is going well, I have a test tomorrow in my 19th and 20th Century Music class but I don't think it will be that hard. I've made it to almost all of my classes perfectly, only class I've missed is Intro to Am. Gov. because I had to take care of some financial business one day (that I would have been too late to ( Read more... )

Went to Panama City with Tony, Bethany, and Ali this weekend. It was quite the good time and fun was had by all. I'm a little sunburnt here and there but I'll live. I'm off to take a shower here momentarily and then it's bedtime so I can get up for class in the morning. Tomorrow starts running again, I've decided I'll run every weeknight and ( Read more... )

Had a meeting with the Navy and the Marines today. Navy went ok and they gave me a good amount to think on but the Marines were where it's at. I had a very good meeting with Staff Sgt. Moore, he answered all of my questions, provided a lot of insight, dispelled some very common misunderstandings of the marines, and revealed to me that Mr. Rogers ( Read more... )

Alright I went to my 11am appointment with Sgt. Perez, showed up 15 minutes early, took a pre-lim ASVAB, scored an 85 out of 99 (not too happy with that), and then spent an hour going over questions with Sgt. Perez. My outcome with the Army is that it definately has promise and my thought is to join the reserves and go off to basic next summer ( Read more... )

It's the end of the semester, a time to free ourselves from classes and start looking towards the upcoming summer and fall. So in that respect this entry is all about my outlook on where I'm headed, what I plan on doing, why I want to do it, etc ( Read more... )

My life is pathetic...I spent my day playing Super Smash Bros. Ali, Dan, and Tabby came over this evening and all except Tabby played. My favorite character is definately Roy, I'm not that bad with him, but I still suck in comparison to everyone else cause I have never really played before. For the most part Dan won, Ali won a couple times, and ( Read more... )
