I'm getting sworn in this Wednesday and going to basic for February 4th. I'm 17 coming from Toronto. Goodluck to everybody

"Tough times dont last, but tough people do". Thanks guys.

The army would not make anymore difference then an ets unit. My family is from Jamaica and Hong Kong. In Jamaica there is lots of crime because of poverty and such things. Once you are used to a certain life style, even if you change it is hard to keep the change. More jobs, more community...

"So - what're you going to do?" Well as of the moment just like you said, I will need some rest. I am still booked for my physical on January the 13th but that can easily be canceled. First things first I'm going to explore the option of self directed learning. If that is not a good option...

Thanks for sticking around.

You are right in ever thing you say. I'll get my diploma by means of mail in courses (in the process of research). If worst comes to worst Then i'll have to go back to school. Nah i'll fine, not that big of a beating.

nope, but its a good feeling. It must be hard for so many other people that are into alchohol and more potent stuff.

Very true. Do you honestly think that a 17 year old punk kid can impress you lol. Just telling you some of my experiences. I'm thinking about the feeling when your close to death. And i can only imagine what it feels like with trained killers. You have impressed me actually

I've been clean and sober for 2 months. I'll work on my communication skills. I'll make sure its up to par.

As hard as it was, I have been clean and sober for 2 months.

Yeah, I spent to much time on the street. It's not msn's fault. And that means your an awesome father. I tell you that being a father is not something i will not jump into as hasty as this. Eclass is an internet based course system which allows you to work on courses at home on your own time...

How did you truly know you found what you wanted to do? If you want to know what stage i'm at. My interviewer said I scored well on my apptitude test but have to come back to re-apply because I admited to pot use. I am due back Jan 13, 08 and he told me I can be off to basic in Feb. I will get...

Lol, i did, meh hard to explain, years of using msn messenger, the whole grammer and sentences idea are out the window in this generation. Are you familair with eclass? "I" was considering continuing my education that way. The problem with courses you do on your own time, is they are time...

With all due respect, you don't know what the**** i've been through, and i know i'm fortunate, but you forced me to say it. And no, i don't know ever thing, i'm actually learning a lot from these great people that are giving me their adivce and stories without being so rude about it. So i'm...

Well thanks for the advice. I do understand - but in reality, this can work. I make something good out of this. my recruiter even pointed out that "Many of the old farts, didn't even have their diploma". There are things you do, and things you don't do, just no regrets. I try to learn from...

I would agree with you guys. Although there are many reasons why this is obviously a bad idea, I have. one reason why I should follow through. I did not finish half of high school then quit. I had this planned a year ago when i really wanted to make something of myself. I wanted this a year ago...

Lol okay, I'll start using proper English. Yes, I do mean financially. I'm no quitter. I just want to do something that will benefit the wellness of my family and whats most important myself. many people do agree with you but given the circumstances this is the best option I can take. My mom has...

well, truth is i'm out of highschool mode. i think i used all my juice. i got the smarts but i need to work with my hands, and a added bonus is i'm helping out at home...this is gonna take a lot of stress off my mom
