Meg --> Enlisting?

[shuppie]

I've been doing a lot of thinking lately about what i'm going to do after graduation. And as of right now I have some ideas, but I'm still not sure... right now its one of these options: Jet program or graduate school.  I was thinking that the Jet program is a good idea cause I get experience plus lots of money.  But on the other hand, I really wanna go to graduate school but in all honesty, it's way to expensive! College by itself is expensive.. with graduate school added on? Yeah, thats just murdering my already empty wallet... So, an idea popped in my head, and whether its a good idea or not I don't know:  the army.

If I enlist, I get college re-payment PLUS money for grad school PLUS a montly paycheck. I would go into languages/translation/interpretation, so I could have some experience for after I leave. The way I see it; enlist for 6 years, go to grad school, maybe even a doctorate's degree and have it paid for me, then when I leave when i'm around 27, if I'm still interested in the Jet program, I can try it. But I don't know yet... I have reservations about enlisting. I don't exactly like feeling owned... but it's good money. God, I don't know... and I don't exactly wanna be deployed to the giant sandbox.

Anyway... I'll be having a meeting with a recruiter sometime soon. I've really only talked to my sister about this, and she thinks its an okay idea. What do you guys think???

PS: I'll be going to BG tomorrow!! Sometime around, maybe... noonish or sometime?
