Can I fly a plane?

That's a good fucking question. I've worked for delta airlines and flown around the US many times. I've talked to pilots. Been in love with aviation all my life since I was born for it, being born in a military family. I've been told "everyone is former military" so that makes me not so special in the end... Seems that way. I look up the bios for a lot of celebs and a lot of them are former airforce believe it or not. That's what makes my life seem so interesting. Here I am a kid obsessed with one day becoming an airman and most of the heros in my life like john williams, and morgan freeman are former airmen.

Wow, what the hell did they do in there? Not only that but uncle phil is former Navy from Fresh Prince. So prettymuch everything I ever liked or experienced throughout my childhood has some connection to the military. That's nuts...

But I'm going down an interesting path these days. Getting my ass back in TSA means I'll have a decent income. From there I can go back to college and get my degree and ultimately my pilots license. Probably get it all done by my mid 30s. Be about 34 years old when I finish everything.

The hardest part about flying planes is not the flying part. It's the landing. And subsequently the taxiing to the gate.

That part is nerve racking specifically because the pilot has to hit his mark or things are going to get complicated and the plane will need to be towed into proper position.

They must need to get really good at that part. Besides that, it's not that fucking hard. You get the bitch in the air and put it on auto pilot. Take any short cuts that are available to get to the other side faster, and mission complete.

I look like a pilot anyway. Now that I'm dropping weight, my face and my body is LEAN and getting shaped like a pilot's body. It's rather interesting how life seems to be forming into something much more exciting.

It's just unfortunate that I have to have a goddamn spotlight on me while I try to find my identity and get a career as a pilot one day.

That's not cool. I know the world's a fucked up place, but what the hell, just because we're in the internet age where you can have instant communication with someone in mere seconds does NOT mean you have the right to invade their life constantly. It really doesn't.

Whatever, I'm tough enough. I'll just get my fucking college degree shit out of the way, then get my pilot license and fly planes and not give a damn what people think about me.
