Joining The Marines

Remarkable Onion
Not long ago, I got into some agrument with a few people who didn't like me. Nothing new. But in the middle of the back-and-forth, someone threw out this:

It obviously wasn’t said has actual advice. It was probably meant to be an insult. But instead of brushing it off, I sat with it for a little bit. Then I just thought “you know what nigger, why not?”

I'm 19. No direction, no purpose, no friends, no gf anymore, too online. And somehow that offhand comment stuck with me more than anything else has lately.

It feels weird to say, but maybe this was always foreshadowed. Family mentioned the military in passing, influential people in my life happened to have served in the military. I always ignored it. Thought I was too retarded it or too different. But I’m starting to realize I don’t even really know who I am right now.

Then a funny thing, I remembered was the Kiwi Farms Semper Fi sticker. The site I wasted so much time on had a literal Marine Corps symbol stamped on it. Coincidence? lol probably. But maybe not.

So yeah, yesterday I have talked to a recruiter and am currently studying for my asvab. I picked the Marines because I thought it would change me the most. I need purpose. I need a life. Probably get killed by some muzzie in the desert but at least my life would be slightly more meaningful than it is now.

Small update: I passed the ASVAB with a 68. Looking at either infantry or military journalist depending on how things line up. My mom’s kinda freaking out, crying a bit, saying she’s scared, which makes me feel a little bad. But at the same time… I’m excited. Like something real is finally happening.

I’ve also started lightly physically training for boot camp. I barely exercised before this, so it’s a little bit of a rough adjustment, but I’m pushing through.

Monday: Upper Body + Core

• Pull-up negatives – 4x5

• Push-ups – 3 sets to failure

• Crunches – 3x30

• Planks – 3x 30 seconds

Tuesday: Running

• Warmup walk/jog 5 min

• Jog/walk intervals: 1 minute jog, 1 minute walk × 8

• Cooldown walk + stretch

Thursday: Lower Body + Core

• Bodyweight squats – 4x15

• Lunges – 3x10 per leg

• Step-ups – 3x10

• Crunches – 3x30

• Plank – 3x30 seconds

Friday: Running

• Jog for distance: aim for 1 mile non-stop

Saturday: Optional Cardio/Stretch

• Light bike, swimming, or hiking

• Foam roll and stretch

Nigger, I’m not officially enlisted yet. I still have a bit of free time left before I officially go to boot camp, I haven't even done meps yet. Just let me enjoy fucking with Jersh and the Jannies while I still can. Once I’m in, I won’t exactly have the luxury of making alt accounts, or being online in general—so I’m making the most of it.

Not sure if I’m fully ready for meps yet. I smoked a bit of pot about two months ago and I’m paranoid it might still show up. My recruiter’s telling me to just drink a ton of water and flush everything out, so that’s what I’ve been doing for now. Hopefully it’s out of my system, but I guess we’ll see.
 
Quick update: looks like I have to sit around and wait for a tism' waiver and a few others to get approved. Kind of annoying how long this process is taking now. It's so annoying just being stuck in limbo when I’m actually motivated for once in my retarded life. Just hoping it doesn’t drag out forever.

I decided on my MOS, I’m going to be a combat correspondent. Super fucking excited about it. Just gotta wait for my waivers to go through, which is the only thing holding me back right now. But I’ve been thinking long-term too… maybe after the Marines, I’ll go to college, get a degree in journalism, and become a field journalist. I feel like being a combat correspondent for the Marines would look really good on a résumé and give me a whole hell of alot more experience most people in that field don’t have.
 
I joined Kiwi Farms originally just looking for a place to connect and try to socialize with others. At the time, it was kind of the only place where I had any direct human interaction. That’s probably why I kept trying to come back, because where I live, there really isn’t anyone to talk to.

I’m hoping joining the marines gives me some actual purpose. Maybe I’ll make friends, have real-life experiences, and finally start to feel like I’m living instead of just existing online in my moms house. I think it's working, I don't think about Kiwi Farms much anymore and only check on it once in a while to see if they are still talking shit about me, which it seems like they have lost most of their care for me.

Also, about 11 days ago, I got a DM from someone claiming to be Travis Touchdown (or maybe it really was him, I’m still not sure), and he said he thinks joining the military is a good move for me in a nice message. That honestly made me feel nice that maybe not everyone there wants to see my doxed and raped.

Whether it was him or not, it meant something to hear that.
