Dream...

Ever get that nagging feeling in your gut where you really want your dream to come true?

My dream is to join the Army, but I have to lose a bunch of weight.  I would like to become a Helicopter pilot.  Yeah, lots of schooling.  First, I would have to go through basic (aka boot camp for about 8 or 9 weeks don't remember for sure), then I would have to go to CWO (Chief Warrant Officer) schooling and then to flight school, but it would all be worth it in the end.  WHOA wait, first I would have to score high enough on the ASVAB and Military Flight Aptitude Test, to even consider becoming a Helicopter pilot.

The only issue I would have is telling my boyfriend and my family.  I am sure they would support me, it's just getting the guts to tell them that "Hey I am joining the Army".  The one thing my parents did ask of us kids was not to join the service, so I will have to see how that goes if it goes.

Once we get into the new house, my rear end is starting back on my exercise programs, so I can get my rear in gear and into shape to at least get ready for basic.  I need to find a work out buddy, my boyfriend can't work out with me because of his back and they have him on his legal drugs.  So anyone out in the Atlanta, Ga area, close to Woodstock willing to be a work out buddy?

  1. This is my thoughts sweetie,
    Parent or no parent they should support you if they have negative things to say about it tell them you don't want to hear it. Yes they may have asked all their kiddos NOT to join the service but when you know it is for you then you just know. I know they probably have the fear of the worst of the worst happening but without the Military we wouldn't be FREE :) Keep that head up and work towards your dreams soon you will be able to hold them in your hands!!!
