home sweet home


In ten years I want to be living in Los Angeles, California. I plan to be living in a small apartment and maybe rent out the place for people to live with me. I will be working a good job so I that I get good money and from the people that I rent out too. I would eventually live on my own but for first starting out. I want the warm nice weather that’s there. A lot of my friends want to live there as well and it would be nice to stay with them.

$40.00 gas
$50.00 cable
$150.00 internet and phone

thanksgiving

My plan for the five day weekend is to have as much fun as I can, like hang out with friends and just have a nice time. On Tuesday, I went to my best friend Amanda’s house and slept the night there, we went out to eat when her mom picked me up then we went to look at Christmas lights then we went to my best friend Ashley’s house and hung out with her for a while then we went home.

On Wednesday, I woke up at Amanda’s and stayed over there for a while and then I went home I just went to my house and stayed there for the night because the next day was thanksgiving.

For thanksgiving the family wakes up and sits around, maybe watching the parade or not. My mom is always cooking in the kitchen and ill help her every now and then. My brother and my sister come over at about one and all the boys sit around the big screen tv and watch the lions game. All the girls are in the kitchen just talking and helping my mom. We usually set the table and eat at able four and enjoy the best meal that we have all year. We stuff are faces till we can’t eat for the next three days. Then we just sit and talk around that table because we’re probably way to full to get up then the boys go back into the living room and the girls are left to clean up the mess that takes us about five hours to do. Then there’s always deserts and at that time everyone just wants to die unless they saved room for it in the begin.
On Friday, I went back to my friend Amanda’s house and stayed the night again with my other best friend Hanna. We just hung out and had a fun time.

On Saturday, I went home got ready and Hanna picked me up to go watch her little brothers hockey game then we went back to Hanna’s and I helped her put up Christmas lights, which we did a great job. Then we went back to Amanda’s and I and Hanna slept the night once again. We had are friends Jeremy, Steve, and Moeez come over there to and hangout with us for a little bit which was fun then they left and the rest of the night was for us to have fun.

On Sunday, I went home and just went to sleep forever. But I think that I had a good time this weekend so I was pleased.

career exploration

Addictions Counselor – When it comes to getting a degree or certification you need for being an addictions counselor they say that many people have a bachelor’s degree or even a master’s degree or some people don’t even have any and training beyond a high school diploma. There are about eight schools in this state that I can get the education that I need to become this. The training is really whichever I choose it can go to college for two years or even four. The work that I will be doing is talking to people and making sure that they get over their harmful habits. I will be working about 35 to 40 hours or working part time is an option too. I will be earning 12.93 an hour when I first start off.

Child and Young Worker- When it comes to getting this degree, they say that you need to have some kind of degree in human services, sociology, or psychology. There are about over 30 schools that you can get a degree in this kind of stuff. It depends on how long you want to go school for it; you can go for two years or four years as well. You can either live in the facility with the youth or you can divide from office to the facility to private homes. I will be working 35 to 40 hours if full time. I would get paid 18.87 for when I first start off.

What I like about both of these is that they interest me in a lot of ways and I like different things about them. I like in addictions counseling that I’m helping people get over there tough times and showing them a different way. I like the way that Miguel, one of the people that tell how their jobs works, said everything because I really get what he does and that I think I can do everything with it. I like with child and young worker that I have options of picking the way that I work and how much I get paid when I first start out. I also enjoy that there’s more schools to pick from then there is for addictions counseling. But if I did I have to pick I would pick addictions counselor because I enjoy everything that happens and I believe I able to do everything with it too.

2. Psychiatric Aide

3. Addictions Counselor

4. Bereavement Counselor

5. Abuse / Crisis Counselor

6. Social Worker

7. Special Education Teacher

8. Teacher Assistant

I think that the first three are the ones that I am most interested in. A Child and Youth Worker it something I would like because I want to work with kids. I also want to help them with whatever problems that they might be having. I would like Psychiatric Aide because again with the helping people is what I want to do. That kind of job does seem interesting too so it’s something that I can see myself liking. And last is Addictions Counselor, I would like this job because I want to be able to help someone get over whatever their addicted too like I can be there for someone to go to whenever they need. These jobs do interest me the most out of this list and I believe that these are the jobs like I would enjoy when im older because for my job I just want to be able to help people, weather its learning, taking care of or even helping in my own way.

halloween


For my Halloween weekend my plans are, Friday; my friend Amanda is coming home with me, then me and her will either go to a party or go to the game tonight, not sure. After the game I might sleep over her house or just go home. Saturday; I’m going to Amanda’s house, were going to get ready and go out trick or treating for like an hour then to my friend’s house and stay the night there. And Sundays are usually were I sleep all day because I’m so tired from Saturday.

I love all the candy you get from Halloween. But my favorite candy to get is Reenses, I like pretty much all candy but that’s the one that I love. When it comes to Halloween candy I’m never the one that really eats it all, my sisters and brother and my mom eat more of it then I do.

My favorite Halloween costume that I’ve ever had was when I was about six maybe seven, me and my sister Emma dressed up as jokers and I just remember the costume being so cool. We took about a thousand pictures that night. But the thing is, is that I don’t remember that night at all like getting ready for it or even going trick or treating so it’s weird. But I’m glad I have the pictures to remind me.

Halloween is my favorite holiday, along with my sister too. We like it so much because all the scary movie that come out and the TV shows they play and haunted houses and then just looking so good for Halloween and scaring you. Everyone in my family enjoys Halloween but my mom she hates it. She believes that one year it won’t exist anymore and people will just forget about it. But me and my sister don’t believe that one bit. Every year me, Emma and Arin go to haunted house especially Erebus, that’s the best haunted house ever. We just have a lot of fun this time of year.

When it comes to movies I don’t really have like a favorite one. I just like to watch them. I think that movie Halloween it’s really scary but I like it. I also like the haunting in Connecticut that was a good one. I just watch pretty much any scary movie I can but I never watch them alone, I probably couldn’t do that.

the perfect day


If tomorrow is my last day to live id start out sleeping in and getting up at about 10ish. Id then wakes up to see my family, since I don’t really eat breakfast then I’m not going to eat it now. Ill talk with my family and spend most of the morning with them. We wouldn’t be sad, we would be happy and laughing and just having a nice time. We would sit in the living room in a huge circle like its Christmas and were about to open presents. My parents and my brother maybe would be drinking coffee; the fire place would be on. My sister Arin and my brother-in-law John would be there to and they would bring their dogs duke and timber. I would smell the coffee that was being made and id hear the laughing of them all, and I would see all of my family just being happy.

In the afternoon, I would hang out with my friends. We would go to any place that we could just to have fun. We'd laugh about pretty much anything. We would listen to music and probably just sing along. We would then go out to lunch, like taco bell. That’s my all time favorite fast food place to eat. I would eat pretty much everything I could since it was my last time that I was going to be eating there. We would laugh and just enjoy each other and have a great time.

When it came to the night time I would have my mom drive me and my sister Emma up north. That’s my favorite place in the whole world to go and I wouldn’t want to die anywhere else. I would go to my old cottage that we had to sell and just look around and maybe are old neighbors would be up there and I would be able to see them too. I spent most of my childhood up there so I wouldn’t want to be anywhere else. I would look out on the lake and see the sunset and maybe even all the boats out there. I would smell the fresh air just like it used to be. I would think about all the great times I’ve had up there. Then I would go into town and look around there. I would go into places that I’ve been going to forever like I would go to this place called timbers to eat, and get the salad bar which I get every time we go. Then I would go to my grandma’s house and spend the rest of the night there with my sister and my mom. We’d talk about the most random things ever like we always seem to do and just laugh and have a nice time. And that would be my perfect day.
