The Army? Whaaaaa?

So I spent all of third period and lunch at the recruiter table at my school. I was talking to SGT. Watson. I’ve been thinking maybe I should join the army.

This is completely against everything I’ve ever said to anyone about anything. A lot of my friends have joined the army and every time I have told them not too. (Mostly because I’ll miss them and don’t want them to die.) But Lately I’ve been thinking that maybe it would be a good way to pay for college.

There are a couple of options for me, which is the national guard, (part-time and local) or actaully enlisting full time in the army. I would get more money for the later choice, but wouldn’t be able to actually complete college untill after I have served my four year term.

I’m having problems with it though because I would really miss my family, and I have a felony on my record. That will be easy to wiave, but limits my job choices for the army. Also, I am partially deaf in my left ear and am overweight. I would have to loose weight before even enlisting. I can only do “girl” push ups.

I don’t know if it is the right decision for me being since my main interst is art and my future plans are to be a graphic designer. SGT Watson said the army needs graphic designers, but I just don’t know. When I think art, i don’t think “Army.”

I’m so confused right now and I don’t know what to do. At least SGT. Watson is cute.
