ok so this isn't navy good news but it is good news. I enlisted in the Army finally I got the waiver approved for the scoliosis. I chose 31E Corrections specialist which is a prison guard basically. MP closed last month. Medic was available to me (though i was talking to another guy at meps and he said medic was closed off last month) and i thought bout taking it but when it came to choosing i for some reason couldn't see myself doing it. I couldnt see me acting as a doctor and plus I don't think i could stomach it. I didn't want to lose a soldiers life when i could have saved it if i didnt get sick. So i left the openings for someone who was able to do it. I'm more of a Criminal Justice girl anyway and the army needs correction specialist and especially girl corrections specialist so i'm helping the army too.

I leave August 12th and I'll be in basic til october but then I have AIT right after and won't be back until December 18th. I'll be at Fort Leonardwood, MO. Wht is there to do in Missouri? Oh well.
