Just Thinking

So I decided I should write something one here. Not quite sure what to write about yet, but I'm sure something will come to mind, eventually.

Hm. I guess I'll write about how school is going for me. It's quite boring actually. Not really interested in any of my classes. I just want the semester to be over, but then that means I really have to start working out. I wish school was so boring or time-consuming. Maybe then I wouldn't dislike it so much. I definitely enjoy the people I've met and the experiences I've had, but it'd be so much better without all the stress. Eh, I guess that's just how life goes.

Oh yeah. Back to the whole workout thing. I enlisted in the Army National Guard. I've got basic training this summer and AIT next summer, so I'm pretty much missing my next two birthdays. That kind of sucks because I turn 21 next summer, but it's okay. I'll be getting paid to learn and I've got no problem with that. I decided that I would join the National Guard for its benefits. They're paying back my student loans, up to $50,000. I also get state and federal funding to go to school. All I have to do now is commit to passing basic training and AIT, plus doing one weekend a month and two weeks in the summer for the next six years.

I should probably talk about my job, which is currently 21E. 21E is Heavy Construction Equipment Operator, which pretty much means I'll be driving big ass vehicles during my one weekend a month. Everyone said I should do something in Intelligence, but I guess I'll get my chance when I re-sign when this contract ends. I mean, I don't mind my job right now because I'll be sitting in an office for pretty much the rest of life, so a little sun is great for me. Although, when I do change my MOS, Hazael said she'd work with me, so that's definitely a plus for changing my MOS. Too bad I didn't start off with Intelligence because I got bitched out by so many people for not picking a better MOS. I know I got a 96 on the ASVAB, but I wanted to do something a little different from what I'm going to do when I graduate.
