do now 10/28/13 Invisibility

Invisibility

         If I had the power to be invisible for one day I would follow my loves ones around to have a deeper understanding on what they go through and how to make them smile. I would do this that way I could take advantage of this opportunity and apply this knowledge to my everyday life. I choose to this because I care about my loved ones and am thankful for what they do and want to do the same for them.

          I would then at the end of the day make it my mission to make each and every one of them smile anonymously. For example leave my mom flowers at work with a note saying you are appreciated and loved. Or leave a friend a notes in there locker saying you are amazing and have a great day for a great person. I want to make people smile, make them feel appreciated, make them feel happy.

career class

     I think a class that should be added to the school curriculum should be a career class. The class would have a variety of different careers that would discuss what salary, pro's and con's, details and specifics, and the education needed. In this class we could have class speakers, for example a doctor, interior designer, fire fighter or a broker. We could also go on field trips to places like hospitals, wall street, design firms, so we can experience the work environment. The reason for this class would be there is an overwhelming number of seniors that graduate high school having no idea what they want to do with there life, but this class should reduce that number.
     The class could have projects about research careers that you find interesting. Test could be career test about what you may be interested in. The final could be interning at your top choice. This class could be a regular school day class. This class could be considered as an elective. TAKE A CAREER CLASS!
