Back to the Future!

Growing up, people would always ask me, "What do you want to be when you grow up?" My response? "A kid." Parents, grandparents, and everyone else would just laugh. They probably thought it deserved a spot on 'Kids Say the Darnedest Things' (can you imagine Bill Cosby and I hanging out?), but I knew what I was saying.

I didn't mean a child, what I meant was a fun-loving, easy-going, good-natured person. I meant I wanted to be a child of God, and a child in the sense that I don't judge, I don't hate, and I love people for who they are.

I just turned 20 years old. In 2015, at 25 years old, what will I be doing? Hell if I know!

Let's narrow the scope, and then build it from there...

In the Fall, I plan to return to Truman State as a full time student, who knows what major, and (hopefully) graduate in May of 2013. I am currently trying to decide about the possibility of joining the Army ROTC at Truman, and leaning toward doing it. If that is the route I go, I'll probably go to the Army's P.A. (Physician's Assistant) school, and them owe them so many years of service.

If I don't go that route, I may get my Truman GPA up and transfer to a school in St. Louis where I can study nursing. Really, so long as I get into the medical field where I can work with people closely, I'll be happy.

In 5 years, I'll hopefully be done with school and in the work force. I'll likely be married, thinking about a family, or if I go the Army route, who knows? Maybe I'll be halfway around the world.

TO BE CONTINUED... ( In five Years)

So, if you have a legitimate, interesting, or in any way valid response, please leave it in my comments section.

~~Thought for the Day~~


"Christians need to realize that before you can try to convert someone, you need to love and accept them where they're at- for who they are. They need to learn that, like my ex-girlfriend, if you try to ram it down their throat too many times, they will leave, never talk to you again, and maybe even get a restraining order."


Until next time, stay awesome.
