Ok

[Pate]

Screw it.


Just a quick summary of myself.

I've bolloxed just about everything in my life so far. People, places, university, you name it.

I'm no longer a teenager, I'm 21 and I need to start life somewhere. I've messed up university (2nd year), and think a real swift kick is needed to unlock my potential.

So thus, my plan is to join the army. Going to spend the summer training (already running a few k everyday, along with lifting), read up on this area and commit.

From what I've read, it's not something you can easily leave, disciplines hard etc.

Hoping it's going be the best thing for me.

Opinions?

Do or do not. There is no try. Get on with it, you're 21 FFS.

Go get yourself some aye-rackys boy.

I am.

Currently getting up to scratch with various things that could be required at interview, along with formulating a letter so as to explain sufficiently why I'm dropping out.

Tell me about it. Life is to short for just wandering through in a daze. At least this way I'll be doing something productive, and hopefully instilling a work ethic I never had.

Go get yourself some aye-rackys boy.

eh?

Oh my god you guys my life sucks and I'm a colossal faliure and and and HERE IS SOME INTERNET SPERGIN' ABOUT WHY YOU SHOULD CARE

Sort your life out and if that means going in to the Army then do this. If it doesn't then don't.

You're 21 years old, legally an adult (let's ignore what your post says about you for a moment), and should be able to work out what you think are positive things to introduce into your life.

Stop being such a dick and just get on with it.

 

[Stormyx]

Whatever you do, all the best to you!

**** you lol. Does it hurt to have peoples opinions and advice? Really?

If it aggravated you that much, why didn't you just click "back" rather than waste your time?

If I was sure about what I wanted in life, I wouldn't see the need for this thread.

Whatever you do, all the best to you!

Thank you, the best of luck to you also.

Why's he being a dick? He's realised he's messed things up so far and is looking to improve his life.

Good luck kenmare, just go for it and hopefully things will work out for you. When I was 21 I didn't know where my life was going, in fact I was nearly 30 before I sorted myself out. And ignore the usual GD "You're a ****" remarks.

 

[nydryl]

eh?

So you'll be the solider we see in the news for friendly fire in a few years

Cheers mate, appreciate it.

Out of curiosity, and obviously only if you want to share, what route did your life take when you were 21?

You need to ask yourself some pretty serious questions about your motivation for joining the Army.

Joining any military service is long term commitment and not really something you should do simply because you think it may be the soft option when it come to make decisions about your future.

Go down to your local ACO and have a chat with the recruitment officer, they will be able to help you make the right choices.

I was in the military for 18 years and I never ever regretted it, but it is a serious commitment and is not for everyone, so be sure that it is what you want to do, and not what you think you need to do.

Ignore the naysayers, being a soldier can be an extremely rewarding and lucrative career, just be aware that it is a way of life and not simply a job that you can leave at anytime.
