One Step At a Time.....

Sometimes I bite off more than I can chew. Really???

Been that way since like forever.

Monday my recruiter and I are off to MEPS so that I can be evaluated. (SIGH)....Just sign me up already...................however I am quite realistic. I realize that I will have to see a heart specialist for my waiver (which I HOPE I get) and will be taking the DELAB for Spanish.

What is the DELAB?

Glad you asked. ;^)

The DELAB is the Defense Language Aptitude Battery and is designed for those individuals who are already fluent in a specific foreign language needed by the military. I will be tested on reading and listening only.

Spanish is one language needed currently....Arabic another.

If I spoke Arabic man oh man....the $$$ I could make as a translator but I know where I would most likely end up..........in Iraq.

Biting off more than I can chew...yes...getting back to that.

I did apply for a job in Indianapolis and of course the internship position for the Archives with positions available in St. Louis, Colorado and College Park.

The MOS I am planning to enlist into has a great bonus...however if I get the internship outside of the St. Louis area I would have to do more research in finding the same MOS at another Guard unit in the potential area I would be moving into.

My head is spinning.

AY CARAMBA!

So Spanish it is for this Latina.
