One day I decided to look at the college review section on the Teen Ink website for information about schools I could attend. I was looking for service academies in particular. The review by Ryan M. about the Air Force Academy really caught my eye (especially since I am craving a future as a fighter pilot).
As I scanned the well-written article, I discovered that this is not your ordinary college. It is a place built to help us extend our limits beyond those of average human beings.
Excitedly I dashed to the school’s website to sign up for information and to look for opportunities to get an insider’s account of this amazing establishment. About two days ago I received a packet of information and I was mesmerized. I knew that this was the place for me, the place that I truly wanted to go. I am now doing all I can to help my chances of getting into the Academy. Even though I am only a high school freshman, I believe that when the time comes to apply, I will be ready.
