Hey guys,
I wasn't really sure where or who to ask these questions to so hopefully you don't mind that I post this here.
I've been thinking for the past couple of weeks that I'm tired of college and schooling. How I crave to have some sort of different experience than the classroom. I took an EMT class and currently serve with the local fire department but I feel as if its not enough for me since all we get are the drunk college students on the weekends. I want to get on the field and just DO something instead of studying
I'm tired of sitting in class with cut throat competitive students worrying about my grade, worrying about the test, getting depressed about a bad grade. I just want a different experience. I was thinking about the peace corp but I'm not sure if that's what I really want. Then I thought about joining the army.
Reasons Why I Want to Join the Army:
What do you guys think?
Am I crazy for wanting to do this? Because sometimes I really think it's crazy that part of me wants to join the army. I am a 2nd semester sophmore, maybe I'm thinking too far into the future for this, but I'm already tired of school. However, I will finish my four years at college before I do anything like join the army.
I'm really sorry if I'm posting this on the wrong thread, or wrong forum for that matter

Reasons Why I Want to Join the Army:
- It's a different experience from the cushy life of a student or living at home
- No more competition with snooby pre-med students.
- Hopefully I will work with other people who have my back. I want that "brotherhood"
- It has that honor and respect thing that you keep with you for your whole life.
