Dreams, we have dreams of what we want to do in the future.  We also dream when we sleep.  I'm going to talk about both, because sometimes they are very similar, other times they are completely unrelated.

In the future, I want to go to the Naval Academy.  I want to do something bigger than just make money.  I'm smart enough and athletic enough to do things a lot of people can't.  I would also be bored at a regular civilian college.  I want to be pushed and challenged every day.  I want to look back and be proud that I accomplished it.  The Naval Academy gives me that.  In the SEAL teams I will have accomplished many haven't, and be able to protect all those people that can't protect themselves, or are satisfied with a life of consumerism.  I am not, and making it possible for them to accomplish their goals is what would make me happy.  But then I want to move on and work in intelligence, where I find the information to be able to take out those guys that would like to do harm against civilians, because anybody can fight with a gun, but it takes a special person to fight with their minds and infiltrate enemy organizations.

Now I was also going to talk about what I dreamed last night, but I can't really remember it.  All I know is that it was very scary and creeped me out.
