So I'm at a serious crossroads, that I haven't told anyone in my family about.

I'm either going to go and get my credentials to teach highschool, or join the military, and THEN teach.

It's something that I've wanted to do since I was little, but it's never fit in with the expectations of my family members.

I'm not really sure what to do.

Been thinking about doing the same thing for a while. Always wanted to become a teacher but also wanted to join the army. Im unsure whether to teach first or join and teach afterwards as you say. Difficult and I know my family will crucify me for it but as other have said theyll hopefully come round.

I always find that things I regret most are the things I wanted to do but never did - and I believe that's the same for most of us. Whilst Army isn't one of those things for me if you guys really want to do it, go for it. The only way to find out whether it is for you is to join.
As for the family issue, you need to weigh it up yourselves, expectations versus your life. Or could you live with it if they never accepted your choice? Difficult. Then again, you know your families best, and can anticipate what will happen. And- they may surprise you too!

I fucking hate airports. Spent 9 hours instead of the planned 3 hours at Kiev Borispol today. Fucking insane with the prices there.

It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles, or where the doer of deeds could have done them better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood, who strives valiantly; who errs and comes short again and again; because there is not effort without error and shortcomings; but who does actually strive to do the deed; who knows the great enthusiasm, the great devotion, who spends himself in a worthy cause, who at the best knows in the end the triumph of high achievement and who at the worst, if he fails, at least he fails while daring greatly. So that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who know neither victory nor defeat.

I FOUND A GREY HAIR

DEATH BECKONS ME

Hello, soldiers, look at your mage, now back to me, now back at your mage, now back to me. Sadly, he isn’t me, but if he stopped being an unascended mortal and switched to Sole Spice, he could smell like he’s me. Look down, back up, where are you? You’re in a warren with the High Mage your cadre mage could smell like. What’s in your hand, back at me. I have it, it’s an acorn with two gates to that realm you love. Look again, the acorn is now otataral. Anything is possible when your mage smells like Sole Spice and not a Bole brother. I’m on a quorl.

I've developed insomnia in the last two weeks. This is part pro and part con.

The pro is that be the time I get Kingdom of Amalur: Reckoning I'll be use to little sleep and double so for when I ge ME3 (squeeeeeeeeeeee!)

The con is that I currently own neither game and so I have been awake now for 38 hours and have no awesome gameplay to show for it. (Well, no non-ME2 gameplay, that is.)

I do have some star trek graphic novels I could read - I was planning on reading them while waiting for EB games to open on March 8 but I guess I could read something else then.

They gave me a cappuccino instead of a flat white :unsure:

Oh, and there is a company in the UK that I've been trying to contact about a workshop registration for about a week now, and they WILL NOT reply to my emails. I'm going to have to stay back until 7pm tonight to try calling them, the lazy bastards.

My new uni ID card is heinous. Like, seriously. My expression can best be described as "I only came here for the free blowjobs, and the air in here is making my throat itch. Mum didn't pack me my special skin moisturiser. Ugh."

It sucks.

Also, can't make a party tonight because of reasons. Bleck!

Can't get ahold of that UK organisation - keep getting a busy tone. Not sure what to do, or if there is anything I can do.

Tomorrow is going to be unpleasant.
