If he runs true to course, he'll chill for a time - almost the exact time imposed upon him, of which he had to be reminded - and then start another thread with some equally inane topic.

Draco - Job Corps is a two year committment for most. That would seem to put your military "ambitions" at bay for quite some time, wouldn't it?

I would highly encourage you to go to Job Corps. Since you have your HS diploma, or will have it, you could pick up a couple of trades in your time there (I would highly recommend construction trades, as you will exit with a skill that is marketable now and in the forseeable future - and has some transferability to SF (18C).

You could also start at a local community college and have a good support system to assist you while attending. This will also give you some time to mature. I think you need a great deal more maturity before you enter the military, or even think of attempting to enter SF.

Also, instead of your "pie in the sky" PT goals, I'd much rather see your current PT results! Perhaps you could update them on your profile on a regular basis, to inform others of your progress, and let people see that you are actually serious about your goals - whatever they may be, they are important to you, not us.

Just some thoughts.
