Entry #4: Is school for everyone?

After high school many people face the decision whether or not they want to continue to further their education. What are the next steps to adult hood? Will I be able to find a job? What are my options when it comes to financing my education? These are all frequently asked questions. This is not a easy decision for people to make, but it is very important.


The most frequently asked question is who will hire me without college education? Is it possible to be successful without education? My answer to you is yes, but this is NOT for everyone. There are many people in the world that became multi million and billionaires without a college education. For example, artists, musicians, actors, athletes, or just self driven and motivated people willing to push themselves hard in order for success. For some becoming a musician or athlete is not their strongest and most realistic characteristics.


It can be very difficult to know exactly what you want and how you are going to achieve this goal. The fist thing many people do is set some sort of goal and expectation for themselves. First off, are they even ready for college? College is defiantly a commitment and thats up a lot of time and money. In my opinion college can be a gamble.

It is really important a person knows exactly what to do with a diploma after college. There are people that work during college and even after graduation and getting that diploma they remain in the same place with no pay raise. In my opinion it is really important to keep your options open at all times. Do NOT be scared to leave your current job! Many people tend to just settle.

Another thing is what about the obvious reason why people attend college, education! Most people who attend college want to be there and want to learn! Whether this be to educate themselves about a particular topic that will help them in their future or to just learn to better themselves as individuals.

There are many reasons to why people attend college and is it really for everyone? Luckily we live in a country where if you have dreams and goals you can achieve it as long as you push and fight for it. My advice to you, NEVER, I mean NEVER quit. Push yourself to do better even if your at your highest peak!

Entry #6: Adopt DON'T Shop!

We have all heard it and seen it, "Adopt Don't Shop". What does this mean and why are people so passionate about this slogan? When you buy from a local breeder you are actually supporting euthanizing at your local pounds. Ever animals that enters a no kill shelter has a time frame of how long they are going to keep the animal before euthanizing it and if they think the animal will be sold. When you purchase a and al from a 3rd party breeder, your decreasing other animals lives in shelters. 2.7 MILLION  adoptable cats and dogs are euthanized in the United States. Something great about adopting a animal is that not only are you saving a life, but this animal most likely comes micro chipped, spayed/ neutered, vaccinated, and possibly food. Animals at a shelter are happy and healthy pets who are just waiting for their human. But what is something that really sticks out? The price! The price for a fully vaccinated, spayed/neutured, and microchip pets is cheap! A breeder...

Entry 11: Final Blog Reflection

The first day of class we were introduced to becoming a blogger and author. My first thoughts about this idea about blogging in a English 102 class was great. I was very excited for something different and new. Every English class is different but most are very similar. The idea that students create a blog and 50% of it is self generated topics was a wonderful idea. I enjoyed writing every single entry. My favorite was the self generated blogs. These were my favorite because it was a way I could express my personal opinion and share what interests me. Along with the self generated topics we has great topics that were instructed to us. All of them we were able to express in our own ways. No ones blog was at all similar. The topics may have been, but the views were all slightly different along with the content.  Blogging was completely new to me. I went in with a positive attitude and for now I am leaving with a positive attitude as well. At first I struggled with the simple asp...
