My future will be discussed at 5:45 this afternoon. I hope it will go well. What I mean by this is that I have a meeting with a recruiter, for the Marine Corp. He's going to work with me, and I shall be turned into a marine.

Ben, as much as I will hate to see you go, to lose a good friend, a part of the mafia, I support you. I know what its like to have to make decisions to not become something, even if they are decisions that will greatly effect those around you. I've got a lot of envy in you, that you can make a decision like that and hopefully will stick to it.

I'm confidant you will. Good luck, buddy. :)

the jester says that all he hopes is that you survive as well in real life as in halo. you gotta have some brass balls to go into the marines boyo, and i hope you make the cut. just be sure to come back for us, the mafia could use someone with military training.

The marines.. I hate the military, hon. But I know what you mean about making something of yourself, so often I'm afraid I won't. I'm here for you always.. Be careful.

I thought about it too. Really hard. Actually, it was at work.

I was staring off, and I had this revelation, I'm a fuckup, I have nothing really going for me, I need money, and so.. I should join the army or something. Make something of myself in that.

I talked to my family and Alex about it, and they all kinda laughed and shrugged it off like I was just being stupid. I should do it just to show them up. LETS ALL DO IT.

If I go into nursing, I can be a nurse in the military. Other than that, I'm out..

Well, shit. That came out of nowhere.

If this is what you want to do, do it. Just make sure this is exactly what you want first.

We'll talk about this later.
