High School Hustle: Juggling IBM Co-op, School,Air Force Ambitions, and Church Life
I'm currently a high school IBM co-op, and I have several interests that I hope will shape my future career. I'm really interested in joining the Military National Guard for the Air Force because I want to develop leadership skills and serve my community through service and technical training. At the same time, I work at my Greek Orthodox church's bookstore, where I learn a lot about community values and responsibility. With these diverse experiences, I'm curious about how I can blend my military ambitions with my academic and community commitments. What advice do you have for balancing these pursuits and using them to build a strong future career?

I'm 15 years old and I want to join the Army, what do I do?
What are the different job roles available? What does the enlistment process look like? What are the physical and educational requirements? I know that this is a lot of questions but I am very curious and interested... I don't think that an Army Recruiter would talk to a trans (FTM), shy, 15 year old high scholar... I'm just very scared of what my parents would think of me... and how long should I even do it for? I'm confused on what I want to do with myself... Any tips?

I want to get my pilots license but I have NO IDEA how?
Okay, so my goal is to either attend an Air Force Academy or join an ROTC (Reserve Officers' Training Corps) through a 4-year University. I am currently a Junior (11th grade) in High School and I want to get my pilot license in the summer of 2025. I know what the requirements are for an FAA (Federal Aviation Administration) private pilot certificate: 1. 17 years of age 2. Fluency in English 3. Hold at least a third-class medical certificate from an Aviation Medical Examiner 4. 40 hours of total flight time (20 with an instructor/10 solo/specific types of training such as flight maneuvers, navigation, cross-country flights, and night flying) 5. Ground School completion through an FAA-approved school 6. Pass the FAA Private Pilot Written Exam (70% or higher to pass) 7. Pass the Checkride (An oral exam and flight test conducted by an FAA-designated pilot examiner) However, I do not know how or where to find a flight school, ground school, or flight instructor that is affordable for a 17-year-old teenager from a low-income family working several part-time jobs already.
