    So I don't know how to put this other than..
    I've always had my eye set on the army even though I'm not exactly what people would call army material.
    I'm unfit but training. I read more than most, I spent a good chunk of my time gaming and I love movies. So basically I'm a nerd.
    Would I lose most of what I love joining up? I understand how naive that question is but I'm a very naive person and that's why I'm here. I don't know what day to day life is like apart from you have a time to be awake by and be ready then you train and apparently after training you just shoot the ****. So what is there to do? I'm guessing there's wifi, tv's and xbox's about right?
    I don't know how else to ask this. I understand how childish I sound right now and how I wouldn't fit into being a soldier but it's what I want to do and I just need a grasp of what I'm going into in some way...
