Hey, I'm currently a 16 year old student going into grade 11 this September and iv been thinking about a career path for a very long time and things like computer tech, animators, programmers, designers. as i have alot of experience with computers already ive just always assumed id end up with a desk job... but i really do not want to live my life like that. i need exitement and I belive the only thing that could give me that is the military.
being facinated with the way the military works, the rules, the order, the professionalisim and the stabilization of a career that one would get if allowed into the military..i couldn't think of anything better.
now hears the problem. American or canadian?
Im Canadian, nobody in my family is American but ive always loved the usmc or the airforce...i must have at least 40+ USMC Cadance's that i play tennis to, it just give me a wierd feeling of..this may sound corney but a feeling that im more of a man sort of speak...
carrer wise though, being a pilot would be the best job i could d... but i im currently in the applied stream of highschool, for those of you who dont know, theres two levels applied which is basic and academic which is more of the advanced level. technically for people who plan to go to univeristy...my dad said that the canadian millitary paid for him to go on a course to move him up to the harder level of education im not sure what it was called when he took it but...its quite challenging in these academic classes. i've taken and passed the academic history and science classes. so i can do it im just realizing it too late and the schools wont let me move up unless i recived good marks in grade 9 and i had no motivation in grade 9..or 10 really.
More back to the point. the Canadian millitary simply doesn't have the money to aquire what i want to do,like fly a beautiful F-15 or a sexy F/A-22 Raptor, heck all air force aside just look at the m1a2 that things a beast, all the candians have are old versions of the lav and we name our things the beaver or the couger lol, "ok send those troops of beavers in to fight the abrams" that just sounds like a matyrs job.
Everything the American millitary has, i want, even the look and reputation is the best in the world...but then i think..heck why join and help the Americans i-am-canadian i should help my country and be more patriotic right? well I'm at a dead end here and could use some advice really..I'm not sure what to do, if i went the American way im not sure if they would accept a Canadian education or if i would have to take some college course in America to prove my intelligence level to be that of an American...well thats not the hard part lol. : on top of that i'd have to end up getting a citizenship and im not sure about their rules for that, theres no American embessy near me that i could ask either and im almost afraid to ask a Canadian recruiter questions about joining the American millitary, they probably wouldn't know any who.
Also...does anyone know of any careers that would maybe involve using technology out on the field, i want to use the technology and cordinate things or give positions, kind of like a radar operator but on the field, not in some base 200 k/m back from the action safe from everything.
reading this over i sound really nieve...and i cant spell and have absolutely no grammar skills but its been awhile sence school so i'd aprecciate a total lack of correcting me lol, thank you.
