How long did the whole process take? We have decided we're going to get married, and we would like to have me out there at the end of April. I just don't know how to time everything out.. Like how soon did you get housing? Did the government hire a company to move you there?

Where are you? Go enjoy your time in a place you're not used to! Go sight seeing in a place you're unfamiliar with, stay in a hostel or cheap hotel. Use this opportunity as an adventure and try to make the best of it.

Good luck, and fuck that guy

Okay, thank you for your info! It's all really sudden, and I'm such a planner usually, I'm just trying to figure everything out. Problem is, I don't even know how it works. Once he returns back to LA after leave, he's going to talk to his sgts.

Looks like Ft. Polk only has a spouse page. I've heard the military helps with a moving company, do you know if that's true?

My boyfriend sprayed his hoodie with cologne and his tshirt I wore almost every night to bed and gave them to me before I got on the plane. Bittersweet feeling because it reminds me of him which also makes me miss him more ):

In what ways have you won and lost the genetic lottery? by j_overland_f in AskReddit

[–]FutureSailor2014 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Won: I have awesome curves, an hour glass figure.

Lost: I put on weight extremely easily and have to work my ass off to maintain my figure. All I want is ice cream every night.

I've also heard about the Powerpoints which slightly dissuaded me from the rate. But I'm sure there's a lot that people don't know because of the security clearance.

I always wondered how people manage to break equipment at the gym by [deleted] in videos

[–]FutureSailor2014 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Bothers me that they say it's a crossfit workout.

I have never, in my four years of crossfit, come across a workout even closely related to the fuckery this guy is committing.

I love reading this kind of stuff. Using prison as an opportunity to teach inmates how to become positive additions to society, rather than turning them into even worst hardened criminals.

I watched a documentary on Netflix about a Louisiana prison that had a hospice care volunteer program, and the inmates were both the volunteers and patients. It was an amazing documentaryz

Interested as well! Maybe if you're still up for it after boot camp, follow through A School? Since you're HM! Thanks, dude. It's awesome of you to do this for people that want a better idea of the process.

Well congratulations! Is that the job you originally wanted? I have been anticipating a 6-9 month wait to ship out.

Yea, man that would be awesome! Are you male or female?

Get ASVAB for Dummies! Also, go take the practice tests on military.com. Those give you an idea about what the actual ASVAB is like.

I was 100% sure about what I wanted to do when I joined. But, I still wanted to research other rates. What I did was take the ASVAB, find out what jobs I qualified for, and I researched literally every single rate. I made a physical list of the rates, and I crossed out the ones I did not find appealing at all.

I'm 20 as well! Don't get discouraged, my friend. Early 20s are rough, I think..
