h:I understand man, I really do. With work and school along with some problems with my family and my mom pressuring me to find a girl to marry, life gets pretty crazy sometimes. You just have to find a way to find some good in it. It may be hard, but there is always some good in everything, else, people would have nothing to look forward to.

Let's see I'm not looking forward to 23 this month. I am looking forward to graduating this December. However, I'm not looking forward to the post-graduation situation. Can you believe the Air Force may not enroll me as on officer because of my degree? I thought the military would take everyone they can?!

I wish I could grad this semester, that would be a great thing. If you need some recommendations, I could talk to a couple of Colonels that I know that owe me some favors.

your recruiter or ROTC official needs to know that you are taking arabic. That will put you in a special category, and most likely send you to an intelligence type of school.
