PhilosipherStoned Posted March 9, 2019 Share Posted March 9, 2019 Would that be a blessing or a curse to you? Discuss... I guess I'll throw myself out as an example. Going active army straight out of high school was both a blessing, and a curse. There's a lot of things to hate, but for me it was the same shit that almost everybody in hated about it, and complained regularly. People either over; or underestimate my abilities because of that experience alone, but I don't think I could trade the experience of getting to meet so many different types of people on a coworker basis.. Skateboarding believe it or not has lead to some interesting aquaintances as well.. So I don't think I could trade that just for the ability to erase a few mistakes I might've made along the way, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Still Me Posted March 9, 2019 Share Posted March 9, 2019 If I could go back...I would have gone into the navy like I had planned....I wouldn’t let that person persuade me out of it 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PhilosipherStoned Posted March 9, 2019 Author Share Posted March 9, 2019 I haven't had any males I've known say anything bad about the navy really.. As a female that could end up stuck at sea with the fucks I might be weary? but that'd be just me trying to think like a female... which I'm not. Marines..Which is still technically a part of the navy. I've had all kinds of bad stories.. Even coming from upper ranked family members. Still I guess the military isn't made to be something you can make a yelp review about. idk. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Naraku4656 Posted March 9, 2019 Share Posted March 9, 2019 i don't think i would have really changed anything. most of the time before college was a black box anyway, only a few of the choices made during that time really seemed to matter in the long run. even if i decided to go to the private college i got accepted into and not the public one i actually went to, i don't think the job i would have gotten at the end of it would have been any different. maybe a slight difference in salary but i even doubt that. the only change i'd make is to stop being a lazy shit about getting more certifications. i just have a general hatred towards studying 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PhilosipherStoned Posted March 9, 2019 Author Share Posted March 9, 2019 Same Naraku.. I made this thread to help me craft a writing project, but I doubt that.. My neighbors actually pretty boss though, and just gave me his info to use on an apllication to enter a helper position that's supposedly pretty legit when it comes to simular stuff.. I might get on I guess.. Everyone seems to like this dude, and like I said he is kind of multi-skilled. I could get a CDL without having to jump through as many hoops as you would normally, and I've been wanting a CDL just to have for my resume honestly.. I've logged 200+ miles on a military HMMWV so I feel I deserve the bitch.. wishfull thinking prolly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Naraku4656 Posted March 9, 2019 Share Posted March 9, 2019 i think the only things i would have really changed would be what some might consider to be selfish. like i'd spend more time with family members who aren't around anymore to really find out who they were, what they liked, what made them tick. information that really no one else in my family really cared to know until that person had passed. maybe not screw up some relationships with friends as well. some of that stuff wasn't entirely my fault and was due to bullshit reasons, but the ones i could prevent i would at least try to. sometimes i wonder what those people are up to. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PhilosipherStoned Posted March 9, 2019 Author Share Posted March 9, 2019 Yeah that's why I came back to this freaking town that offers little to nothing for someone with any kind of advanced technical skills.. My mother was here by herself, and kept complaining.. Also missed my old guard dog I bred for money.. Well honestly just so I could get a pup.. I still have free tuition I can take advantage of that's probably going to be technical or computer science though. Especially coding classses. I just need more financial security for that tbh. I started my college online, but mathematical skills being my weakness I figured out I need to wait until I can dedicate time actually spent at a university// So for now I'm just trying to build my cash flow.. Also I still dig where exploring music has taken me, and the best place to work on it has been the middle of nowhere for me kinna.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Distortedreasoning Posted March 9, 2019 Share Posted March 9, 2019 right out of high school i did have plans for the military but im very glad i decided not to join. especially with how anti military i am now. tho i would have probably had a much more stable employment/life. i don't know i dont like to dwell on such thoughts just because there are a lot of what ifs. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PhilosipherStoned Posted March 9, 2019 Author Share Posted March 9, 2019 Yeah I'm tryin to come up with an angle for this beat that was called No Future.. Maybe kind of ironic for him, (but still catchy he's developed real talent) idk it is depressing as fuck though. As an MC I'm supposed to work with lemons.. or in this case some bittersweet lemonade.. The beat makes me think about where I stand in life currently. Have I built 'a future'? Fuck no.. Probably not. I can't say it hasn't been fun though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
