An interesting week has finally concluded. I feel like it has been very productive. I put in almost 30 hours at work as well as raising money for National Fine Arts by working at a parking lot for a concert in Downtown Nashville.
On Thursday I made the decision of going to Vol State for my freshmen year rather than enlisting in the Navy. There are situations and opportunities in my life that I felt I should deal with before I made a commitment to move afar and start a new beginning in the military. The recruiter wasn't thrilled, however, and even hung up on me when I was trying to explain my reasons for staying. I thought that was quite amusing.
Now my focus must turn to my schooling and the adjustment to the college life. I am looking forward to the challenge that college has to offer.
Without looking too far in advance, we leave for Fine Arts in North Carolina a week from tomorrow. Our drama team has worked hard for the last month in preparation for the trip. I haven't been able to contribute much to the pracitices because of conflicting schedules but I will be able to be at the final two next week. All I know is that North Carolina will be one amazing trip.

Well Matt I am glad for your decision to stay home and go to school, as for that recruiter he should have listened to your reasons and now it is the navy's loss. Remember not all recruiters are like him so don't judge them all by his response. Good luck with fine arts and I know you will do great in school.
Yay i'm kind of glad your not going to the navy yet not that it would be bad if you did go. i sure hope fine arts will be a good trip i know i'm not sure how i feel about it cause it's a lot of ya'lls last year but i am a little excited can't wait to see everybody ttyl
