I finally decided what I am going to do. I am going to the Air Force.
My mom is trying to contact a recruitor for me. She is excited for me. I am going to sign up for a 4 year agreement there.
I will barely get to visit home xP
Here are requirements needed to join:
-good moral background (no tattoos, drugs, etc.)
-Medical problems
-Weight requirement
-You have to take an Exam
-TONS of other stuff!!
Before you can join the Air Force, you have to go through 8 weeks of Basic Military Training. That is THE HARDEST PART!
You will have to learn everything and take a test at the end of the Basic Military Training. The test is HARD.
My cousin took this test and he was one of the 3 students who passed out of 20.
Here is a schedule for Basic Military Training:
-There is NO typical day, but here is a breakdown of it-
4:45am: Wake-up and get dressed
5:00am: Check physical appearance
5:00am-6:00am: Running or other exercise
6:00am-6:15am: Breakfast
6:30-7:45am: Dorm Setup
8:00am-11:30am: Drilling,classes,shots,records,uniform issues, etc.
11:30am-12:30pm: Lunch
1:00pm-5:00pm: Classroom/dorm instruction
5:00pm-6:00pm: Dinner
7:00pm-8:45pm: Set up dorm for nighttime
9:00: Lights out
I also have stuff I should study:
-Air force ranks
-How to perform Military Salute
-BMT Chain of Command
-Air Force Song
-Air Force Core Values
-Airmen's Creed
-How to Report
Packing:
We also pack very lightly. Just bring like 3-4 comfy clothes. Girls can not bring makeup.
We also can't bring music, magazines, laptops, etc.
xD We are screwed! xD
After all that hell, I will have to pass a VERY HARD TEST. If I pass it, I make it into the Air Force.
Then I will study to become a pilot or a Nurse Anesthetist (make about $165,000 a year!!)
If I join the Air Force, I won't be able to visit my family for like years! T.T I'll miss everyone.
I will be shipped to San Antonio. If I make the Air Force, I will get to travel around the world!

I heard that the Air Force pays GOOOOOD money.
I am THINKING about it...but I probably won't do it.
Can't handle it. ):
But anyway, I'm happy for you. biggrin
I'm gonna miss you like hell, seriously. I'm trying not to get emotional right now. cry
We must must MUST hang out a whole lot before you leave!
Good luck! :'(
(P.S. Man you should've done JROTC these past 4 years! Dude if you did then you would have been (a few, maybe) ranks higher than what you start out with if you get in...and you would know how to do stuff already...but it's all good.)
