Still doing good after finding out my medical waiver was approved. Getting a little anxious about MEPS, but I'm trying to remind myself they still said yes and they just want to confirm that my xrays are my back...but still there's a little nervousness that they'll turn me down. After talking to recruiter man I won't be able to pick a rating after the physical. For some odd reason I have to wait for the begining of Aug. Not exactly sure why, but I think I'll be on a high for two weeks if they Navy lets me through. Now I'm just researching the heck out of ratings. At first I started out aiming for MC (Mass Communications). I've added to that list AG (Aerographer's Mate) and IS (Intelligence Specialist). I think in order I'd go AG, IS, and MC or IS then AG. IS would be exciting, stimulating, and secretive...lots have fun. AG would be easy breezy and fun. MC lots of taking pics and being creative. So I think those are my picks. Recruiter man is still pushing me towards nukes. I'm still thinking about it. Positives are really good money, prestige, really good money, you get promoted quickly, and your the Navy's golden child. Negatives it's extremely stressful, long hours (even for the navy) they never the the sun...or people, and it's brainiacs. I'm smart but I want to do something fun, not som much chemistry heavy like nukes.
So that's where I am right now...counting down the days to MEPS then getting my rating and on my way to RTC and graduation. Here's to being a future sailor!
Hooyah!
Have faith!! anything is possible.
