Thanks for clearing that up M90. First of all you need to consider whether or not you have valid documents to do so. If not, don't even think about getting fake ones. It ain't worth it.Secondly, is it really what you want to do? Remember at the end of the day, it is you and not your family that will be stuck in a dead end job. If you wonna do it, hey, go for it. It's not what career your family choses for you..it's what you chose for yourself...there are several decisions in life that one has to make for oneself..one of those is whom to marry, another is what career to go into. Don't you listen to nobody else. They may be well meaning, but you need to do what you enjoy and want to do. That's what really counts. Try to talk to your family and make 'em see things your way. If that does not help the situation then just let them know that you still care about and respect them but a man's gotta do what a man's gotta do(I'm assuming your'e male). Just make sure that you do thorough research before you jump into it. And last but definitlely not least...pray about it...ain't nothing like prayers to see one through difficult times and decisions. Hey...If you know what the risks involved are and your'e still ready to go for it, then I'm behind you a hundred percent (Not that it should make a difference). By the way...ignore them haters.


Just my opinion!

lale, you have a point. I don't know about you but most of us I assume want the best. That is why I think mixxem should go with the US airforce. He learns from the best and if he decides to go back some day he can take the knowledge back home. Isn't that why most of us study in the west.
Mixxem be all you can be.
Kham.
