The Game Plan
A lot of people from my hometown asked me why did I want to go to college. They say even with a degree you won’t find a good job or it will cost a lot of money to attend college and then money you going to make, if I ever got a high paying job, will just be paid back to the school the school I attended. And then I ask them, “why not attend college?” Do you want to be a bum for the rest of your life? Or work at McDonald’s flipping hamburgers while making only medium wage? That is not my plan for the rest of my life. I believe education is the most powerful thing you can obtain in life. That’s something that no one can ever take from you. I believe the more you learn the further you will go in life. You can land that million dollar dream job and own that expensive car and house. Who wouldn’t want that? The first thing everyone should do is list career goals, also, list short and long term goals. My goals are to graduate college, attend a grad school so I can get my masters degree. Get hired at: Google, Apple, or Any other major computer software jobs. It really don’t have to be a major one I can also work for any company that deals with computers or computer programming and work for them. But those are my dream jobs. My position call be called many things from computer repair, computer information, to computer engineer. All of them pretty much do the same thing. This position can require you to fix a major problem to fixing the smallest thing to even coming up with something brand new. I have also been the “nerd type” throughout my whole like. I really enjoy finding about the latest computer software or trying to figure out how and what makes the computer work. I will be ok with just coming into my job and sitting at my desk with computer parts everywhere! That will drive most people crazy but I can call that a place of peace. Although my first
