I have been trying to figure out what I wanted to do next with my life. I have 2 options, go to school or join the military. I only mention the military because my girlfriend and I just broke up, and I just want to get away from everything that reminds me of her. So any help would be greatly appreciated.

Hi, hrtandconfused143!

If you join the military, you'll most likely be able to get tuition help for going to school after your enlistment period. Plus, you can learn things while your in the military that can help you to get a job right away when you get out.

If you just go to school, where might you be thinking of going and what might you also be thinking of as far as a major, please?

Thanks!

If your going to make big life decisions think with a clear head, not a broken heart.

Do you have to sign a contract in the military?

Just think through your decision before you make the leap.

I was going to go to school to be an airplane mechanic.

If that was your plan all along then stick with it,if its what you want to do.

The Air Force is a great place to learn to be an airplane mechanic. Any military experience is a good long term plan for life. Highly recommended. A great way to pay for college to, but look into it and get the facts, before you sign up. Just to see if that's a good fit for you.
