Join the navy: See the world

What if I joined the navy? Saw the world, paid for my education bills, and got trained as a medic?

Today I saw the movie Larry Crowne, a movie about a guy who loses his retail job because he didn't have a college education and was therefore unqualified to move up in management. The movie revolved around how this man's life changed because he was met with dead ends at every job he tried after getting fired. So he went to college, and changed - his look, his house, his ride, and eventually his knowledge of economics.

But the message I pulled from Larry Crowne was different. I realized that, no matter what is going on right now, tomorrow really is a whole new day.

So what if I don't keep this job? Or I continue living rent free? So what if I go back to school and forget about working for once in my life? SO WHAT.

Maybe tomorrow I'll fly to London. Become a bartender. Join the navy.
