Sweden

November 23, 2007

I have been chosen to do military service in Sweden. There are only 3000 doing military service a year in Sweden so we are not that many. I am sure that this will become a huge part of my life. It will probably change my view to life itself. Once you have been elected there's no way back unless you get badly injured or die. In 11 months I will be tested to my limits. Since I scored pretty well at the intelligence test I have been chosen to become a leader which will test my limits even further.

I have no doubt that this will be a very valuable experience when I later on tries to get a job. During my time in the miltary I will gain:

*Life experience  

*Maturity

*Physical health

*Strong mind

*Leadership experience

*Drivers licence for truck (if I chose to)

*Money (I will get payed doing all this)

Tomorrow saturday I will visit the location I have been asigned to. I will meet my group and the leaders that will train us. It's just an informational weekend. The real deal starts in januari.

We are sharing the very same fate. I'll also have a kind of test next week. My service is to begin on december. I don't know my location and position yet. It will be determined after the test. Anyway... Wish you good luck on your duty.

  I can't agree with you much more!

  In my opinion,nomatter what we do,we will get something  valueable from it. So we must learn to make full use of everything we do and value it!
