there's about 2 or 3 scouts on my team, one of them being me. none of us are eagle, but me and my friend are both close. we each have 3 more merit badges (citizenship in the world, physical/personal fitness, and lifesaving/emergency prep), as well as our eagle projects. we both have our projects started, and should have them done by the end of the summer.
the problem i'm having is that my troop has grown significantly in the last year, and the younger kids don't listen, and they make everything not fun. add that on to the fact that everyone is mad that i'm gone for about 8 weeks in the spring (6 weeks of build and two for competition), and scouting has really lost it's appeal. on the other hand, i'm not going to stop now, because i will have wasted a lot of time. plus, being an Eagle scout is so beneficial, i'd be a complete moron to not get it, when i'm this close.
