Well I guess it's time for an update....as usual, I'm stuck doing massive amounts of schoolwork (ongoing accounting problems, a case study, ROTC formal briefing papers, Operations Orders for ROTC, etc., etc....) and totally neglecting my personal and social lives. I got a call from my cousin the other day, she was pissed cause I haven't called her in almost 3 months...she completely bitched me out 
Apparently everyone in my family is horrified that I'm gonna be deploying, it's as if they didn't expect this when I enlisted. My aunt started to talk about ways to get me out of it and I finally had to tell her to stop and get used to the idea that I'm gonna be overseas for a year. I do consider myself lucky though, I have just under a year to get everything in order, and to figure out a few things in my life before I leave, namely whether or not I'm gonna keep trying to get a commission, or whether to just stay enlisted and try to get a job as a recruiter.
Also on that note, I STILL cant find a job. This is getting more and more depressing by the day...I mean, I know that I'm employable, I've got the job skills, I've got great training and references, but no one is hiring. They'll all accept an application or resume for "future openings" but what good does that do me NOW. Who knows...maybe I'll catch a break sooner or later. Hopefully sooner
More next time!
