AwdreeHpburn Posted January 8, 2008 Share Posted January 8, 2008 Not looking for anything specific, I'm just feeling a bit dim.... I was considering enlisting in the military - my brother's a recruiter, I gotta lotta crap going on right now, long story... but anyway, to even see if I would qualify for anything, I took the ASAVB test. I don't know what all the letters stand for but apparently its a standard military assessment type test. I got a really low score and I feel really bad about myself.... Anyway, I probably won't join the military, I'm old, fat and have lots of kids, but I was entertaining the idea. Now I have to tell my brother I'm really not going to join. Ah well. Such is life. ](*,) Link to comment
Entropy Smith Posted January 8, 2008 Share Posted January 8, 2008 The possibility to transform yourself is still within you...I was in the marines...I didn't realize how it affected me until a few years later...besides you'd be separated from your kids temporarily...maybe permanently...

Dako Posted January 8, 2008 Share Posted January 8, 2008 Awdree, you ain't chopped liver, and 35 is hardly elderly. Link to comment
doyathink Posted January 8, 2008 Share Posted January 8, 2008 T! Are you serious? Hey, I enlisted when I was 17, basic nearly killed me then, I'd HATE to do it now. lol I can just picture you, holding an M-16.....killing everything in sight. lol If this is something you want to do...go for it. I really did have an experience of a lifetime. Those tests are weird too! Hi BTW. Link to comment

AwdreeHpburn Posted January 9, 2008 Author Share Posted January 9, 2008 Hi DYT!! You were enlisted huh? What branch? I know I'm not chopped liver Dako - but thanks for the reminder. I needed that. And I know I'm not old, but sometimes, it does feel like the whole age thing is spiraling out of my grasp. I WOULD look hot in a uniform and I would LOVE an M-16! lol And ya know Entropy Smith - I think you're right. Its not ever too late to transform yourself. The military is good for that. I don't think I'm military material but I do wish I would have thought of going that route 10, 15 years ago! Thanks guys. You're spirit lifters, the lot of you and I appreciate you! Best, Awdree Link to comment
