So, looks like I'm gonna be dead to my mom. That's just about what she said to me about joining the Marines.
I can't stand T.V. They only tell about the deaths of soldiers. They don't tell the triumphants of it. 3 soldiers died today. 8 soldiers injured today. Not the MP unit in somewhere is protecting it's embassy well.
That's all the war is. Death.
And I just want to be a military police... with a dog. MP K9. They could be sent to any American Embassy, not just to Iraq. And when I leave, no college. I can just go out, and get a job. An extremely well job. I can become a State Trooper at minimum. If I am a very good soldier, I can even go higher. FBI, Secret Service. Just by joining the Marines.
But she won't listen. She doesn't care.
I want to prove a point. I want to prove to myself that I can do something with my life. All my life I've just been that quiet kid, or the weird kid, or that anime freak. I don't want to be that person anymore. I want to put that behind me and become a Marine. And if I do die, than I'd be proud of myself. I'd died protecting my country.
That is the greatest honor.
It's what I want to do. I've thought about it. For months. I've been thinking about life, and the future. I don't really want to be a teacher anymore. I can't see myself doing that anymore. I mean sure, I'm helping people. It's just, I've lost the urge to be with kids. I've lost it. I want something more fun, more interesting. Something more. I want to be a police officer.
She doesn't care.
She just wants me to be a girl. What exactly is that? What is being a girl? Going out a becoming a teacher or a nurse? Coming home and kissing my husband and bringing my kids to soccer practice at 4? NO. I don't want that. Sure, coming home and having kids and husbands, would be nice. But I can still have that.
She never watches the news at the right times. They just had an segment on females in the service, and K9s.
I'm gonna be dead to my mom.
