I have no idea what to do after graduation. I feel that I should start to put some thought into it so that I am not completely clueless when I get back to Texas. Being here on base and living the military life really makes me want to join the military. I could see the world! I would be an Officer because I have a degree, which is a bonus. I thought about the Air Force but I spoke with a recruiter and it is about 1 1/2 year process to become an Officer in the Air Force and they only accept 400 people every year. Even then they hardly accept Officers into the MWR career field. However, now I am really starting to love the Navy. Just being here, the family closeness of living on base. After the Navy Ball I am really becoming fond of the Navy and think I would be very happy with the Navy. I am going to talk to the XO's wife and the Captain's wife and see what they think. They have been Navy wives for a long time and it would be nice to hear what they have thought about living the military life for this long. If I like what they have to say then I will talk to a recruiter and see what they have to say about career options.
I really can't think of any other career options after graduation. I mean I could just hang around Denton for the rest of my life and be a part-time worker for the City of Southlake until something better opens up and I can get a full-time job... That just doesn't seem exciting to me. I want excitement. Even if it is not working with kids, I don't really care. I just can't think of a career that I will enjoy other than the military. I don't really know why I have such a desire to be apart of the military. I really think this is where I belong.
Any comments, questions, concerns about my future career choices??? Any comments would be greatly appreciated. Those who read this regularly are those whose comments I value greatly. So bring it on!
I'm home sick today. Last week at Fall Camp we had a few kids get really sick and I think they may have passed it along to me. I've been feeling a little crummy since late last week and now I just full on feel like crap!! I've been in bed not moving for hours because if I move it goes very badly... Being sick makes me miss my sister very very much! Erica was always good at taking care of me when I was sick. Guess I'll have to learn to take care of myself... Bummer. :)
Aloha!

Hey Becca Boo, So you are thinking about the joining the Navy... You know Go Get'em! You are completely right you do deserve excitment and you've worked VERY hard to get what you want. You may also look to the private sector that caters to the armed forces. That is what Beth's sister does. She works for a company based out of England and makes hella money! She works 9 months outta the year and they fly her home or anywhere in the world she decides to go for her vacation times. She works with all different ppl, from all over the world. You should def try looking into that. But what ever you decided, I am behimd you 110%! I am so proud of you! I hope you get to feeling better too!
