During the beginning of the second semester, Mrs. Bridges had assigned each of her classes a proposition which would include working with the environment along with giving the opportunity to learn a new skill. Requirements for the assignment included: thirty hours of work, a minimum of six photos, along with an essay describing what all occurred during the past three months.
The work I completed didn’t go along much with what I chose as my two career choices which was a downside of all the work that was fulfilled between February and May. After graduating from Oak Grove in 2020, I plan to attend a two-year community college for becoming an R.N. An R.N is abbreviated for Registered Nurse, but what does one do? Well, this type of nurse helps

Equine judging is when you judge the conformation (how the horse is built) of a certain breed, including performance classes. Performance classes are basically where you learn multiple patterns for a certain class while taking notes based off how the rider and horse perform as a team. On April 22nd, both teams competed in the N.C State Horse Judging at St. Andrews equestrian center. Everyone was split up into groups (four groups total); up until 3:30pm we observed each class thoroughly in order to place whom described how the breed and gender should appear. Between the days I wasn’t busy helping coach Arcadia volleyball, volunteering at Silverlin, or having equine judging, I would mow Kayla Brewer’s lawn since my sister doesn’t seem to know how to properly mow a yard. Whenever she mow’s, there would be uneven lines while leaving some places untouched.
I also helped McKenna Hartman restore her old family barn after it was left in havoc from her distant cousins. We would wake up at 7:00am, beginning work around 8:30am; we began just by clearing the aisle, tack room, stalls, as well as hayloft. When most of the junk was drugged out, we proceeded to work on the stalls; most stalls had approximately around 1-2.8 ft of manure, shavings, along with hay. Did you know that repairing a fence with a ten year old isn’t that easy? We were forced to tear some fencing down while tightening other sections along with re-nailing the
The first day I was as lost as a newborn; no idea on how to weed whack or what I was doing while the wet freshly cut grass stuck to my boots. Billy gave me advice on it. I needed to cut the grass to the sweet spot so it wouldn't shrivel up dry and die but not need cut again right away. He showed me how to restring the weed whacker and showed me
Career genograms are used to gain a graphic picture of the client’s career heritage. Through genograms clients are able to identify what their family members have done in the past, and themes evident among genders and other factors. Career genograms can also be used to identify roles, behaviors and attitudes of family members about work or careers. In addition, family pressures, standards, and expectations can also be made evident through career genograms.
In order for me to complete this career assessment paper, I initially took an Interest Inventory survey. Upon completing this process, it revealed that my personality profile score was (I, C, A). These three letters represented my strengths and interests in determining which career field would best suit me.
For me a Career is a livelihood profession carried out for a significant period of a person's life and with opportunities for progress. A career is often composed of the jobs held, titles earned and work accomplished over a long period of time, rather than just referring to one position. It’s difficult to find a good career in which you can excel and move up for example, becoming a principal from a teacher, air force officer from a pilot ant etc.
The I would go into the zone and toughly groom a horse, tack up relatively quickly ride and focus on the things that horse really needed work on which Heather and I had discussed before she left. For the two mares that were having someone come look at them they both needed work on their lead changes. I achieved this by first warming up the horse including a lot of lateral work in each direction. Then I had a pole in the center of the arena and I would make a very large figure eight over it first at the trot focusing on bending/ changing the bend and moving off my leg aids. Then I would have the horse trot one half
“I feel sorry for the person who can't get genuinely excited about his work. Not only will he never be satisfied, but he will never achieve anything worthwhile” (Walter Chrysler). Deciding on what one wants to be in life can prove to be a demanding task. There are so many, yet limited, different opportunities in the world to have an excellent career and make a decent living while doing something one loves. It is limited because there are only a few specific career paths that someone could take to make good money. It is very difficult to make a fulfilling living being a garbage man. There are many different opportunities because, within these specific careers, there are usually various paths to take. Someone who has dreams to be a
I interviewed Officer Greenlee, who is a close friend. She works as a Correctional Officer for the Peoria County Jail, I interviewed her while we were on duty on Saturday, April 16th.
I also liked taking the assessments. The career assessments are a great assessment to take for ourselves and also for students who are looking to enter a career. It is great that the career assessment confirmed my beliefs that working as a counselor or in the education field matches my interest. I can’t believe that the unemployment rate is so high. I’m sure this class has prepared you to help the students with their career and college decisions. The websites were very helpful and I will be using them in the future. It was great working with you in this class.
Horsemanship is more than teaching a horse how to behave. As Sylvia Scott stated in her article on Natural Horsemanship, “Natural Horsemanship, sometimes referred to as ‘Horse Whispering,’ really has nothing to do with literal whispering.…” Communicating with the horse through the use of your body language, such as your eyes, the placement of your body, the tone in your voice, pressure you apply, the amount of release you give, the tools you use, and how you listen to a horse are all factors in horsemanship. At first I wanted to learn how to properly ride a horse, but having had previous experience riding them as a kid, I wanted to take it beyond that. With the help of Sunrise Horse Rescue’s Mary Taylor, my senior project would not only provide
The program I attended was an advising appointment with the career center. This program was called career exploration. The reason why I choose this session was because I am still unsure what it is that I want to do for a career. I tried to do career assessments online but the results where limited due to the fact you had have to pay for the results received.
Typically, when someone hears ‘medical field’, automatically you think of people with white lab coats and a stethoscope around their neck ready to take your vitals. Obviously this comes to mind because these doctors and surgeons are the face of the medical field, but in reality there is so much more. There are actually about 300 different occupations one can have in the health care field. A large part of that is nurses. Nurses are the basis of the medical field; they are almost as important as the patients themselves. They have always been a major part of our lives. Nurses have been with us since we first opened our eyes, from birth to broken bones, nurses were there. They have very difficult and extensive careers, they dedicate their lives to their work and to their patients. Some nurses spend long nights away from their family and friends to help others, at times their shifts can last as long as 24 hours. In my opinion nurses are the real super heroes, for this reason I have decided to pursue a major in nursing. I still have a lot to learn and many years of schooling to go, but personally its worth the wait.
My whole life I have always wanted to do something where people will remember me. I went threw millions of career choices before I came to the conclusion of a nurse. It’s not something that will get me into History books, but its something where all the people I help will remember what I did to care for them or their loved ones. My mom went to school to become and RN, but dropped out when she became pregnant with me. After that story was told to me, I didn’t want to be anything related to nursing. It wasn’t until my step mom went to school to be LPN that I realized it would be possible for me to do. I saw how much happiness it gave her, and I want the same thing. She loved helping the patients by treating them, and helping their families
My experiences and education has played an integral role in molding me into the person I am today. I chose to come to Michigan State because of the opportunities it will provide me. I faced many obstacles in high school and did poorly my first two years due to health issues. Applying to colleges was a major concern of mine, but with the support from my counselors and family I was able to get into a school as prestigious as MSU. I went from a 2.0 GPA my freshman and sophomore year, to a 4.0 GPA my junior and senior. I was very unhappy in the beginning of high school due to my lack of success, relationship with my parents, and health issues. When I finally realized I needed to make a change and started setting goals for myself, that’s when my happiness turned around. I can honestly say that I am the happiest I’ve ever been at Michigan State. I have been able to meet many new people, invited to the Honors College, and accepted into the business school. From this experience I believe happiness directly effects your success.
My Career Plan The future is uncertain for me, but it is important to develop a career plan that will provide financial support and personal fulfillment over the course of my professional life. To make this transition from school to a professional career, I am going to plan a plan that will help me stay focused and motivated in meeting my goals and objectives. In the next paragraphs, I will explain my ten-year plan for my
