This weeks rant.

This week has been one for the record books. What with the major life style changes and life altering career choices that I have had to make this week I am ready for a break, and that not even including the college work!

I do not believe the high schools  prepare you for college now a days. Yes, they teach you how to  do math or science,but they do not prepare you for the "real world" aspect of it. The decisions you make in college will forever affect your life, weather they be positive or negative. This week I took a major step in my career life by applying for the Highway Patrol. In doing so I have a deadline to get into shape and test (in one month!) This led me to making the decision to alter my life choices in how I eat and exercise as well as decide not to drop this semester classes. While I am happy that I sent the application I also created a whole lot of positive stress in that I now have so many days to cut the fat out of my life and apply my self to getting in the Patrol. If I survive this next month I know I will be able to survive the rest of the application process. While the decision to alter my life choices was not an easy one I am glad to say that I have a lot of  people backing me up, and that will allow me to continue on this path.

I know that is not really a rant but it is what I accomplished this week. You will notice that the linked part of this week is going to be for me. This will allow me to look at it and keep to my goal for the month. If you have any suggestions please let me know for that would be awesome!

  1. You don't have to rant, you know. We (your classmates and teacher) like getting to hear about your life, and getting to know you that way, since we can't get to know you in person.
