So, I've made my decision. My cute little butt is joining the Army. I have most of my enlistment application filled out. I just have some tests and what not to do. I'm still studying and working out ALL the time, and nothing is for sure yet, but, I'm really hoping everything will work out.
I came to my decision this evening. In the past few weeks I have tried countless times to contact a Marine Corps recruiter, but I never reached one. The local Army recruiter, however, got back to me within six hours and has continued communications throughout the last week. He's answered all of my questions, even the ones that were ridiculous or slightly random... in some cases completely random. He was honest, helpful, funny, kind of cute, and he even texts! Pretty much, he made the Army seem completely normal and not the big, scary thing I've always kind of considered it to be. I also realized that there are more options, jobs, and room for me to grow in the Army as opposed to the Marines. So really, why wouldn't I want to join?
Unfortunately, the offices are closed until Tuesday and I have some questions on my application that I need help with before turning it in. I guess I'll just see how this goes...
