2:54AM

I must not have much of a life to be doing this at2:54am while knowing very well i have school at 9 tomorrow.

So i was reading a poem about soldiers and then i had a bit of a nostalgic moment. I have two friends in the American national guard and the Army.

When you think about it, most of those army recruiters talk up alot about joining the army and how great it is, it'll open up many things, you'll get to travel. All this jazz. But really it's nothing like that when you join. It's rough, painful, but eventually you get use to it because you've already adapted. So yea, that's the one type of people that do join the army, but only cause they were convinced. It's as though the army was like a product or something to sell... but i guess it is. It's such a small price to pay for slavery in a way. You wont even know if you life or die. how wonderful... ummm that was sarcasm.

Anyways, the other type of people that join the army. The type that don't know what to do. They don't want to go to uni or college or they just couldnt get in but didnt want to stay home all the time because their parents would yell at them to move out and get a job or do something decent with their lives. So they join the army. What kind of bad decision making is that? i have nothing better to do with my life, so you know... i'll put my life up for grabs in Iraq for about 10000 a year + health care all just because i've got nothing better to do....

....people talk about how they have to serve their country...for the good of their country...fight for the country...watever. The government, the big people up there are shipping people to practically die everyday...So much for "The People."

"Why do we kill people who kill people to show that killing people is wrong?"
