I got some new sneakers. They're the ones with the cool springs on the bottom just under the heel. They make running MUCH more comfortable for me, what a great purchase... I don't know... Sometimes I think I shouldn't be spending money on stuff since I don't like to be flashy, but hey, there's a lot of cool stuff to buy out there and when I get the money, why not? Thinking about it today, I'm not like other people... I'm just simple. Other guys they have to get new toys, new expensive stuff, to impress the ladies... I've never been interested in that life style. I've been taught to be humble, think of of the starving kids in africa or wherever who can't afford a meal.
And it's true. Here in USA, we have it GOOD compared to some places. We're better educated, we have an abundance of food, we have too much in fact since now obesity is a problem, mass production and the advent of global economy, as well as the ease of communication these days has created a massive market place where you can make money, sell, buy, do anything through the web. A lot of young entrepreneurs actually tried to create their businesses solely online back during the .com boom where people started online stores and such to sell their services. We can still do that granted, we figure it out and all. My area of expertise will be in computers once I get into the air force next month. So I'll have the option to do it then if I wish. It's going to be sweet to have the freedom, the American freedom to do what I want to do once I'm through basic.
It's a whole knew world now. nothing's real anymore. Everything's digital, from movies, to music, to even money! We don't need cash, really, don't know why we still have it. Well, I'm going to use my airforce pay to play the stock market once I get in. Then it'll be gravy, baby. If things go well, I'll just keep making money money money, if they don't, I'm ok since I have a secure military job.
6 year enlistment, 29 if I decide to leave. What to do at that age? I don't know... I've lived a sheltered boxed in life, don't really care to nor am interested in going and working outside the military. Some other folks get their college degree, make way too much money and go out to fine dining, have kids, and all that, live life to the fullest. I've always considerd myself a soldier. A warrior. I love a challenge. And what doesn't kill you only makes you stronger.
Eh at least my leg's healing from that car accident. It's indicitave I feel of how lucky I am to have a healthy functioning body while other people don't even have half that or are too old to be free to reach for the stars like me. Makes me want to be the best I can be. Older people know this and encourage me to work hard but that basterd at work, oy, I can't get him out of my head... grow up guy. Seriously. Playground kids tease each other because they've got nothing better to do. As an adult, you ought to leave that behind and think of building a future family yourself but adults are stupid sometimes. I would have LOVED to bring kids into this world had I not had first hand experience with how awful this place is. I do not envy those who decide to do it, but they probably know how to raise their kids RIGHT so they're not worried. Anyway, God I love what you've got in store for me here. thanks boss. I'll do my best.
