Well, it's been about three million years since my last update. And there is finally something worth updating.
I just finished enlistment proceedings with the United States Navy.
Meaning: I am, as of 1600 hrs Monday, a member of the US Navy. I got a perfect score on my enlistment test and got into the hardest program the Navy offers enlisted personnell: the Navy Nuclear Propulsion Program. Meaning I will be operating nuclear reactors on 8-billion dollar aircraft carriers.
Scared yet?
I also got a $12,000 dollar enlistment bonus. And three advances in rank, already. And upwards of 70 college credits for my training. And a fucking CAREER.
Words cannot describe my excitement.
(EDIT: My ship date is currently slated for August 17th)
