Thanks for your support, everyone.....It means a lot....I'd be lying if I said I wasn't scared....It's human nature to fear change, and this is a big one.

I've been looking for some sort of satisfaction in my life for some point in time now. I work at Viracon coating architectural glass, and lately I've been working on the glass for the new freedom tower which does put a sense of patriotism in some people.
I have a good job, health benifits, a 401k, life insurance, the whole nine yards, and for 21 years old (22 on the 14th) that's not bad. But I want more.
I'm looking into joining the National Guard. I don't want to go Active Army because I don't want to leave everything behind and go overseas, but I do want to join the military. Yes, I know there's a chance I'll go overseas anyway, but I want to see what my options are. So there's my important announcement, I'm looking at joining the National Guard....

Hopefully it'll give me what I'm looking for.

but hey, atleast i have insurance now.....i haven't had any since i moved out of my parents house when i was 18....my coverage started december 1st.....
