I pose a very important question.
Just lately I've been thinking about my future and what I plan to do with the rest of my life. It isn't that close on yet but these decisions are very important of course.
Ever since I was a sophomore in High School I've spoken with my Father about the possibility of joining the Army. The thought was always that it would be an after college thing. Even then I wanted to be a nurse. My sophomore year in college my Uncle Jeff (a Colonel in the Army himself) took me to speak with a Lieutenant who specialized in medical recruitment for the Army. We spoke of the things the Army could do for me and such things like that.
Now the decision rises to my mind again. I've been thinking about it and talking about it with everyone around me. As it stands I'm just trying to get all opinions. It is important to try and get all opinions because each person thinks on things like this a different way.
My father is still all for it, in fact, I think he is more for it then he was 4 or 5 years ago. My Uncle is still for it saying "If it wasn't for you I would tell you." My mother is very much against it, but for silly ignorant reasons. I'll ignore her for now. Marc thinks...nothing of the idea, because it hasn't really been made. He does say if I go, he will go with me. My sister Janella thinks it will be good for me, my best friend Jon think it will be good to (although he was the only one to worry about how often he would get to see me if I left and worry about who would come to the hospital with him when he hurt himself), and so far I've spoken to no one else about the thought.
So now I speak to you. Now I ask you oh LJ F-list. What do you think about me joining the Army, as an Army nurse?
