[glow=red,2,300]July 23rd I go to enlist. I have basic training for 9 weeks, and then it's off to basic. I have no idea when I'll be back. I'm enlisting into the army, going for administration. I'll keep you all updated when I get more info.
The reason why I'm waiting until July 23rd is because by then I'll be 18. Last time I talked about joining the military mom grounded me for 2 weeks...Once I'm 18 she can't stop me. It's like a birthday present to me.[/glow]

Hey, the day after that is my birthday. I guess I really can't completely understand why anyone would want to join the military, both my dad and stepdad are in the military and I have lived the military life for a very long time. But, I respect it. It is a very honorable thing, in my opinion, just something I don't have the honor to do. I can see why your mom might not want you to join the military but in the end it is your choice. I hope it turns out the way you want it to.

It's really the only stable job around here. They'll pay for my college, and it'll make me become someone. I'll be somebody. That's all I want to do. It'll put me on the right path again...I've been...making some pretty bad decisions, so it's a chance for me to shape up.

ya the biggest problem is they WILL ship you off to iraq, i hope to many memories dont haunt you or me, im going to enlist and join the airforce after high school till i finish college and then move on to another career. Ill keep tabs on ya, or have my father do that, i may be able to provide help thru him if hes ok with it and it wont get him in trouble. as far as enlistment goes I wish you luck, maybe we will be stationed together at somepoint
