Or maybe I'll do this...

So I WAS planning on going to school so I can get into med school, but I've changed my mind. I was thinking about it and I really don't want to deal with the 2 1/2 years it will take for me to get my degree going full time, since I'm like 99.9% sure that those 2 1/2 years will actually take something more like 4+ years to actually accomplish. I want to be a doctor but I just don't think I'll be able to get my schooling done while I'm in the military...and I'm not able to get out until I'm 32, and I have a time requirement for the military of 2015 (I'll be 35) so I just can't see me actually getting it done while I'm in the military on the government's dime. So the old plan is out.

So I said to myself, "Self, if you're going to do this thing you've got to get it done fast and going to school on your own isn't going to get it done." Now, when I heard that I was a little down in the dumps, so I asked "Well then, what are my options?" and I had a great epiphony...I told myself, "Take the four classes you need for the PA program and do that instead." So that's the new plan. Now, I have very little interest in actually being a PA and I know I said I wasn't going to do the PA thing, but there's a huge perk in going that route. Like I've said, it takes an uneducated turd and in two years they have a Masters Degree and are a PA. So I'm thinking, 2 1/2 years of my own time while working and have a Bachelors Degree and run the risk of it taking much longer OR 2 1/2 years where only 1/2 is on my own time and the other 2 years IS my job and get the Masters Degree...hmm, which to choose. So the new plan is to take the remaining four classes that I need (two of which I'll finish for sure before Christmas) then spend two years becoming a PA. After that, since I'll have a college degree, I'll put in for the med school scholarships and become a real doctor so I won't have to do that grunt work I mentioned before.

Now, just cause it's funny here's a picture.
