This is a very quiet day. But quite a few students have zipped by the table and grabbed candy. None are interested in talking. But two separate boys have told me they are Air Force bound. One said he'll be joining the Air Force Reserve, where he'll start his service while attending Harper and studying theater. Another said he's going to join the Air Force like his dad. But his dad was a Medic, which this kid won't be. I forgot what specialty the kid says he's pursuing himself.
A 9th grade girl came by and picked up my next-to-last copy of "The Military's Not Just a Job . . ." for her sister, who is also a 9th grader, but they're not twins. (?) Her sister is interested in the military. IDK if she wants to encourage or discourage her sister's interest in the military. I hope the brochure will prompt the sister to ask some questions.
I'm giving away lots of Starburst candies today. I'm glad I bought a fresh package the other day.
I neglected to say that the first air Force bound boy to come by this morning e pressed appreciation for my being here. But he politely declined to take or wear peace bling.
A boy and a girl came by in second lunch. Both plan to go to college. The girl hopes to attend ISU and become a teacher. The boy hasn't chosen a college yet but wants to study business.
