Over this past weekend my dad has “socially grounded” me until i got my Naval and Air Force applications completed. At first this was torture for me because I had been invited by friends to go places that night and every time I asked my dad, he calmly refused by saying “applications first.”
This ended up being a good decision on his part. I have around 90% of my applications completed. I am now working on sending letters out to people in order for them to write letters of recommendations for me. I could not have done these applications without the ground pounding toughness of my dad’s fortified decisions. I am very thankful for this. My mind has lost a lot of mental weight!
Even though it often goes against our better judgment, parents are usually right. This case is no exception.
Good luck getting in, and if you ever need any help with anything, just let me know.
