I've been doing some more research on enlisted to help me make my decision, and the more I look, the more excited I get about it. The thought of boot camp is still scary, but I'm pretty sure that's only because I've had it in my head that OCS is mostly class time and not as much PT, which is wrong. I actually think I'd do pretty well in boot camp, but not so much in OCS.
Initially, the MOS fields I was focusing on were Intel, SigInt, and Linguistics. The more research I do, though, the more interesting 0861, 18xx, and 1371 appear. Linguistics is looking less and less thrilling at this point. I think it'd be nice to do something I don't normally incline to, something outside my comfort zone. I have time to figure it out, though.
The main turn-offs at this point for going enlisted are: a) the money, b) my cat (though I'm becoming more resigned to the fact that she'll end up at my mom's and will most likely die after getting hit by a car. Maybe my mom will actually try to keep her safe until I can take her again.)
