ROTC

Why do I do things that I will probably regret at some level?

I think it is because if I don't do them, I will regret that even more.  Airforce/Navy ROTC is going to be one of those things. I am going to the recruiters next week to talk about joining the ROTC program here at Purdue. Part of me wants to do it so I can be independent. A larger part of me is doing it because I miss the structure wrestling gave me in high school and I think ROTC will provide a similar fix.  Lastly, I really want to fly. I want to fly jets or helicopters and I don't have the money to get jet time. Its just not feasible outside of the military.

I want training for my plans in space. If nothing else, flying is a fantastic thing.  Future self, if you read this... you may, current you is sentimental enough, I hope you aren't disappointed with the choice I made. It's going to be a big one.

Bye. Hope you're well.
