So a really really good friend of mine just informed me he's going into the Navy. He told me its because he doesn't feel like he has any current direction in his life, and that he wants to go out and explore the world. I'm going to miss him like hell, but in a way, I'm glad to see hes found order.
However, it got me thinking...what the hell am I doing with my life? I think I want to be a psychiatrist, but I really don't want to be at school for another 8 years...and helping out deranged people isn't exactly what I had in mind anyways. I'm looking at all the information he sent me....and for the first time since high school, enlisting seems like it would be an idea. I know my family would be dead set against it, but I see how much it helped people like the Clarks, and how much Shane loves being in the army, and then I see how disorganized I am...and it just sound slike a good idea. I'm sure this might just be a passing thought, but only time will tell....
