So tommorow...
Tommorow, I will be meeting with a staff sergeant from the Marines. Its true, I'm considering a position in the military, but I havent decided which branch Id like to join for sure. Ive always wanted to be in the military, and Im really excited that the time is finally here when Im eligable to join. I know, it sounds crazy (Katy) but its a really good opportunity, especailly for someone like me. I want to study to be a history teacher, and the military is one way to help gather some dough up for school. The other brightside, is the experience. Im a visual learner, and I also find that it tends to teach better than reading out of a book or hearing a recording. For a teacher, being able to tell students about events from a first-person viewpoint is porbably one of the best ways to teach a lesson, especially in the history field. To be able to tell students "Yes, I know about that, I was based there", or "Ive been there, and witnessed the area". With things like that at my aide, lessons become more meaningful to students, and a more lasting thought in their mind.
