Fire. 
Hello all...I just felt that I should let you know about my future plans for myself. 
After careful consideration, I have decided to finally go through with becomming a firefighter. This is no joke, this is not an impulse decision but more so a decision waiting to happen. I had thought about seriously during my junior and senior year in high school but chose to drum for Nebraska instead. All through college I had contemplated it...I have now finally decided it is TRULY and SERIOUSLY what I want to do.
In my life I want to make a difference, I want to help people, I want that respectable job. I want to be a firefighter. I have had some negative feedback but mostly positive and supporting feedback from family and friends thus far.
I'm well aware of the serious dangers involved in this...and I'm willing to risk that, because this is what I WANT TO DO.
Please e-mail me back and let me know, give me some feedback...I'd love to hear from all of you.
**I have started working out via a strict regimen for phsyical strength and stamina. I have 3 literature books (study books) coming in the mail so I may study for the tests given. The way it will work, in about a year (maybe less) I will go through all of the written and hands on tests, polygraph test, and drug test...concluded by a physical fitness test, in which is a 10 minute long obstacle course. If I pass all the tests and physical fitness test...I will be assigned to report for training...then...if I graduate...a firehouse.**
