Hello Air Warriors,
My name is Griffin I'm 15 two weeks from 16, I have read all sorts of threads on here about the USNA. I've gotten pretty much every question answered. I would however like to get some personal advice on my behalf. Any criticism you have, go ahead and throw it my way. As long as it's clean, but I trust you guys.
Alright so currently I am in CAP, and I've seen all of the joke forums. Unfortunately that's sometimes true. We have a lot of goofs, slackers, and tubbies. As well as control freaks. But their are also people like me who are really trying to advance and make something of ourselves. Currently I'm a TSgt I figure with perseverance I'll have my Billy Mitchell in 8-10 months if I'm lucky.
I'm currently enrolled on an Online High school, which you get credits for once you transfer back to public school. Even the grades get transferred, and I'm making strait A's. The only problem I have, is I'm slow and not getting enough credits because I tend to procrastinate. I'd like advice from you guys on dealing with procrastination.
I've been accepted to Starbucks and the manager guaranteed me a job once my 16th birthday rolls around two weeks from now. I'm not sure if that looks good for USNA but I thought I might add it in. I also work at the local fisheries when they do family fishing days and get a few hours of community service for it. Only problem is it ran by a bunch of College Hippies (Save the environment dude)LOL.
The one thing I need is sports and I need a varsity letter. I joined track but got a bunch of crap from the kids because my peers are a bunch of retards, So I quit. I'm a big dude and all the coaches at the high school want me to play football next fall my junior year. But I don't want to get more crap from these retarded kids. Not to mention getting a varsity for football is ultra-mega competitive.
Also I'm a certified Open Water Diver, with three specialties under my belt, and over 25 dives. I guess that's extracurricular right?
Thanks,
-Griffin
