Today we continued to learn about available career choices. Mrs. Gunther also told us about jobs that had the highest pay. I noticed that most of them were professional jobs that required more than 8 years of college education. I was pretty worried, but Ms. Sayler explained that most students actually get a job and work day time, and many colleges give out loans as well. My dream job is to become a bio-engineer.
We also took an anxiety test. I personally thought it was a good opportunity since I'm always overly anxious before major exams and tests.

Careers (2010, Nov 17th)
Today we looked at what kinds of careers were available for us. Actually, I was very surprised at the huge amount of careers available. There were so many jobs that I didn't know about. For example, my friend Ribby found a job called "Blaster". We all laughed and joked about what kind of job a blaster might be. There were also some jobs that sounded very interesting such as "Food Taster".
We also took a closer look at our learning styles. There were 3 major types of learning styles. They were visual learning, auditory learning, kinesthetic/tactile learning. It turns out that I prefer auditory learning and kinesthetic/tactile learning. Mrs. Gunther told us that auditory learners are very good at listening, and it is a very good idea to record your teacher's lectures (especially in college). Also, kinesthetic/tactile learners need movement to learn more easily.

Reflection (2010, Nov 15th)
Today I took a learning style test and a personality test. I think I got to learn more about myself through these tests. There were a few parts where it was hard to make a choice between my given options, but overall it had a wide range of answers that were possible. When the test results came out, I felt that the results depicted me very closely to what I thought I was like. It also gave me some tips on how to manage my time, classes, homework, etc. I feel that all this was a great experience for me and it would help me out in the future when I am decided what kind of career path to choose.

Reflection (2010, Nov 12th)
Today we talked about our interests and what we consider as "important". I got to realize that many of us (including me) considered materialistic things as important in our lives. I began to wonder if God was ever a priority in my life, or if I just called myself a Christian. Most people consider money and interests as a priority, but if we think about it, these things don't mean anything when everything is stripped away from us. Maybe I should try to change my priorities more towards God and not towards the world.

Talent (Nov, 11, 2010)
What is talent?
Talent is basically something one is good at. It could a natural thing or it could be obtained through hard work.
What are my talents?
Well, my best talent is being a very sociable guy. I easily get along with other people. I communicate well with people, and I always try to demonstrate positive attitudes and behaviors. I am also a hard worker. I always try my best on what I do. I try to actively participate in group works, I always try to learn new things, and I do my best on my assignments. I also have some qualities as a leader. I try to help out others and lead them.

Thought questions (Mon, Nov 8th 2010)
1. How do you plan on choosing a career?
I will have to consider my skills, financial ability, my preferences, and opinions from others. It would be good to have a career where my skills would be useful because I can be more productive. Considering my financial ability will help me because there may be some things that I might not be able to do, such as trading stocks. Also it will help me decide my path of education (because sometimes, school tuition fees can be a pain in the neck). A career that I prefer would be great for me because honestly, my career is probably going to be what I'll doing for the rest of my life. It would be a good thing to do something I love than something that I hate. Opinions from other people may help as well because there are a lot of pathways out there and it's always good to take some advice.
2. Does your gender make a difference?
Yes, it will open some doors and close others. For example, since I am a male, I can do more physical labor then women. However, I wouldn't be able to do a lunch lady because most people would prefer women over men.
3.Who will help you choose a career?
My parents, my teachers, and career searchers can help me decide my career. These people can give me advice on my current educational career and my future career as well because they had knowledge, experience, and they know me best. A career searcher wouldn't know me well, but would know what kind of person I am through the surveys that I take. My personal opinions and opinions from others will both be useful in finding a career that would fit me.
4. Can the Bible offer any help?
The Bible can guide me in how I should grow in God. It doesn't give a specific explanation of what I should do as a career, but rather a broad idea of what I should do. It tells me what is wrong and what is right.
