What My Future Goals Are
I was always thought of what I want to be when I was little it went from professional ball player to computer engineer to firefighter and tv commentator. Now that I’m 18, I’ve came up with a general idea of what I want to do. I’ve decided to major in computer information systems so I could branch in communications and other available job in the technology field. Ever since I was little I was impressed by technology from the touchpads, to the laptops, to even the video games. In high school, I came up with a plan for my future goals. I decided to attend UAB and major in mass communications that way I know I’d have a job just about anywhere in my field. Well my mom printed a list of top jobs and salaries in the state of Alabama, communications is nowhere to be found on . Of course I was highly disappointed so I looked in the computer majors and find my way to CIS and now I’m going to work my way through college doing what I have to do in order to get my certificate and degree in my field of study. Computers are not going anywhere so I know jobs will be there I just have to find them. My future goals during college is to obtain a drivers license, I don’t drive so it’s always a hassle to get somewhere from home, school, and anywhere. I have to wait on a ride, ride to bus or even call a taxi. I been trying practice driving but it’s been so hard since no one in my household has a license or even know how to drive. Driving is one of my top priorities; it will give some of my time pleasure. I wouldn’t have to rush and do everything. My goals after college is to start a career working in technology making $50,000 + a year, I don’t want to worry about bills, loans, and everything that requires a large sum of my money. I want to make it in life where money isn’t an issue, transportation isn’t a issue and a nice home isn’t a issue. I plan to achieve all of these by completing college and starting a career.

    “A dream doesn't become reality through magic; it takes sweat, determination and hard work.”- Colin Powell. Everyday of my life, I followed this lesson in life and it will continue to run through my blood forever. In following this life lesson, in six years, I see myself as a mature twenty-three-year-old adult still in college and working each and every day for my bachelor’s and even master’s degree.

    I have wanted to go to college since I was twelve; I believed it would be exciting to go to school as an adult. When I became a teenager I thought I had decided that I wanted to be a school teacher, but as we grow these things change. I then attempted college for something completely different but was unable to finish due to tragic circumstances. Now at twenty-six years old I have found what I truly want to do with my life. I took a career interest profiler, a program that provides you with possible occupations that match your interests. After taking the profiler, I find I may slightly disagree.

    After Graduate School, I hope to have my PhD in psychology or my doctorate in psychiatry. I would like to start out working in jails, talking to criminals and analyzing their brains versus the brain of an average adult to study how the brain reacts with criminal activity and why they do and feel what they do. I have heard that a person can not do that type of work for very long because it is emotionally tasking so after that, I would like to open my own counseling practice up. I would do either marriage and family therapy or focus on teenage depression. Eventually, I would like to retire into school psychology or become a psychology teacher. Also, if I ever have enough money, I will buy a house devoted to taking in stray animals…

    After graduating from high school I didn’t think about going to college, all I wanted to do was work, hang out with friends and play video games. So at the age of 17, I started working for my uncle at his liquor store for about a year. Throughout that time I attained a great amount of skills; ever where from management to customer service skills. With that being said, I thought about expanding; maybe getting a job elsewhere that will pay me a higher salary for the skills that I have. I applied to Liz Claiborne Inc. in North Bergen, NJ at the age of 18 and got hired as a product coordinator. I was so excited; I was only 18 and about to start making a salary nearly equivalent to that of a college graduate. At this point I thought to myself; “wow! I don’t need to go to college to make money”. I continued working for Liz Claiborne but after three years noticed what I had as a career wasn’t what really interested me, nor something that I wanted for the rest of my life. I was really just doing it for the money. Then, that’s when I realized in order to obtain a career that I always dreamt of, that college was something that I needed to accomplish. I started researching and asking myself questions like “why am I going to college? What am I going to get out of it?” then came up with answers, “if I don’t go to college I most likely won’t have a career of my choice”. If I graduate from college I will have an opportunity of living the American dream; a beautiful family, an enormous house, and nice…

    Throughout my time in high school I had never really given much thought into what I wanted to do once I graduated. I knew I was going to be going to some university to pursue a degree, but I didn’t know what I wanted to do or where I wanted to go. It wasn’t until I took AP Computer Science in 11th grade that I decided that pursing a degree in Computer Science was the right thing for me. This type of work was something that I greatly enjoyed and through computer science I would be able to solve problems in creative ways. When applying for colleges I didn’t get into the University of Florida. This was my top pick and for months I was looking forward to the possibility of attending there. I didn’t let that get me down because I still had plenty…
