I got laid a HELL of a lot more when i was young and single at a regional than I did at college (although riddle didnt have many chicks). Moral of the story, dont blame things on being at a regional. If anything it is your free pass to drink and hump your way around the world. Follow in the footsteps of the decades of airmen before you. Raise a beer and find some good lookin girl to put a smile on your face!

I am in college at MIddle Georgia College(in a town a little to the left of the middle of nowhere) THe light at the end of this college tunnel seems to get further away then closer amd closer. O yeah......my checking account says I have $410 in it. My rent is due on the first. My rent is $400 per month.......IDK right now, i would rather be a regional FO jumpseating, nonreving, flying, or even humping my way around the country or world.

When I was 22 I had no idea that I'd have a son born on the same day that you would be wallowing in your sorrows. Life gets better, it also gets worse, but after it gets worse it gets better again. You have no way of knowing where the next day will lead you, just live you life and enjoy being alive. You will wind up where your life was heading when you least expect it and when you weren't even trying to get there in the first place.

I am a month past 23, and I would have loved to have the 20/20 vision i do now, I woulda got my comm multi at 18, went to mesa (muhhaha i know they suck) but anyway I woulda went to a regional till now, got furloaded, and went to college at 23 with 1-2k of rj/d8 time, and now flown jumpers with that on weekends, and enjoyed college, being older and wiser, since thats what girls love anyway. Your in a great spot dude, I would rather have done it that way. I will work for 13k a year, im at 9k right now and worked since march and we close in 2 months. So idk man your not that bad off, you look better on paper than I do, go back to school, and find a weekend job flying a 182 w jumpers. Hell you dont even gotta goto a flight college, goto your state school, and party, major in the most bs major possible.

Justin Timberlake - Cry Me A River (even though I hate this guy ... I think the song fits the moment)

Now on a more serious note:

Johnny Cash - Hurt

Don't become that angry, whiny, bitter, disappointed (annoying) pilot/human being that loves trash talking their employer and the industry. If you don't like what you're doing this is the perfect time to cut your losses ... find something that you enjoy doing.

Everybody's Free to Wear Sunscreen!
