The Next Jump 0

I’m not a ‘luck’ guy. This site is Troupe of Fate, right? The little decisions we make don’t affect us drastically. However, there are certain key points, jumps if you will, that make us who we are. For me it was: Being sent to St. Pius, going to Century, going on the Dominican Republic missions trip, joining the Navy, graduating Boot Camp, and this next jump.

I’m currently here in Penscaola, FL. I was originally planned on attending IT ‘A’ school here, but I was interviewed and am now planned to go to Monterey, CA. The Navy along with some other establishments have invested quite a large amount of money into this new program that will be test run by 15 individuals including myself. It’s going to be 16 weeks long and we’ll be competing with IT’s who’ve been in the Navy for years. That’s how much info that I’ll end up learning. What happens after September is still up in the air, and everything I do from here on out will be monitored closely.

I’m scared and nervous. I can’t be. I need to be sure of myself. I graduated Boot Camp with a Hall of Fame division. I got through what I thought I couldn’t get through. This is the test that’s been layed out before me. I need to be ready for that jump.
