    High School Counselor Goals

    The most important goal for my future is to obtain a satisfying career. Growing up I saw how unhappy my mother was working at a job that she hated just to make enough to provide for our family. I further understood how important a satisfying career was to me when I started working the graveyard shift as a dockworker during community college. I strongly disliked almost everything about the job including the exposure to extreme temperatures, the job’s filthy nature, the long and irregular hours, and most of all because it was unfulfilling.

    My High School Career

    Education has always been one of the most important things to me, and I am dedicated to learn as much as humanly possible. Throughout my high school career I have challenged myself by completing six advanced placement classes and taking other honors classes. I have taken these classes as a way to help guide myself for what is to come in the future in college. I was inducted into the National Honors Society during my junior year of high school, and I graduated with honors. Both of these successes are the two greatest accomplishments of my high school career. These two achievements prove how dedicated I was, and still am, to getting the best education I could. My quality of dedication will stick with me throughout my future endeavors.…

The endless nights that my parents worked to provide me with food and shelter has kept me alive long enough to change history.

    Reflective Essay On Human Services

    My main concentration right now in my life is my career in Human Services. The education that I am receiving at California State University Dominguez Hills has definitely changed the way I think in regards to people in the society and it has also giving me a background of problems I will run into and what I can do to solve it.
