im kinda in the same boat
im 20, and am on my second year out of high school and do not go to college. i would like to, for the experience and to get a degree, but i am completely unsure of what i want to do. also, i have recently realized that i have no desire to back to school and do homework, tests, and all that other crap. i dont want to go, hate it, and have it become a big waste of time and money
Im pretty sure i want to be in law enforcement (its the only thing i can think of that actually appeals to me), but i cant do that until im 21. so right now i am just working and pretty much wasting my life away. so i have given myself a goal. by the end of 2008 (when im 21), if i do not have a police job ligned up, i am going into the coast guard. my reasons are that one of my real passions is being on the water (i work on a fishing boat in the summer and fall), plus they enforce laws as well.
