Its okay guys. It's fine.
I'll be good. Don't worry about me.
needless to say, the car is sweet, and whether or not I'll see it for a few months, or a year, it's fine. My parents will watch over it with good hands.
My life, up until Jan of this year has had its ups and downs, this makes me happy, and makes me feel as if I have really accomplished something. I lost 120 lbs to join the Navy, then the recruiters forgot about me. So I talked to the Army Recruiters, got the 19K job for 3 years 20 weeks, with the MGIB attached to my contract.
Once my 3 years, 20 weeks are up, I plan on coming to my hometown, re-enlisting in the National Guard (Florida National Guard offers up to 15k Enlistment Bonus for a 6 year commitment after you serve active duty Army)
Once I do that, I will find a Job, with prior military service, I was thinking a Public Service position (911 Dispatch/etc)
While Utilizing the MGIB to go to school for Law Enforcement OR Fire Science/EMT,
After that is said and done, 6 years or so is up in the Guard, and Ill hopefully be a Firefighter/Police Officer (after utilizing my GI Bill Benefits), I have been looking into the 2 year volunteer service for the Peace Corps, to bolster my life, and make me feel as if I am fully accomplished.
I yearn to serve the American Public/Worldwide everything.
I'll be 23 when my Active Duty is over,
I'd be 29 when my 6 years is up in the Guard, while completing schooling and hopefully becoming a police officer/firefighter
I'd be 31-32 if the peace corp thing goes through.
Who Knows after that? My MOS doesn't deal with intelligence, so the Peace Corp is an excellent possibility.
Maybe I'll come back, have the education to continue on with Firefighting/Police, and serve National Guard again till I am 40?
Not a clue.
I have big dreams, let me be on this one.
