In class today, we were asked to find three jobs we find interesting or want to be in the future. The job could be anywhere in the world, it had to be in English and needed some form of training. Here are my three: Environmental Health ScientistCompany: Vancouver Coastal Health Location: Vancouver, B.C, Canada As an Environmental Health Scientist, I would have to provide a review, analysis, and advice to the team I would be working with, also making policies, investigating, and assessing to keep the humans of Vancouver.

In English class, we have been learning about what would be the best job for us by going through Red River College Career Exploration Workbook. InterestsThree jobs I found interesting were Librarian because I like reading and creating book, also telling stories. Photographer because traveling around the world and showing people how you see the world. And Park Naturalist because just being outside a lot and the quiet, peaceful surroundings . In this activity we looked at different occupations and circled the ones that interested us the most. Based on what I chose, my interests tied at investigative, Artistic, and Social. People interested in Social are normally “Sociable, responsible, like to work in groups, good verbal, interpersonal skills, and enjoy helping others in a variety of ways”. PersonalityBased on my choices, ten words I can use to describe my personality in an interview or cover letter are: 1. Calm 6.Practical 2.Cooperative 7.Introverted 3.Easy going 8.Likeable 4.Flexible 9.Self-controlled 5.Humorous 10.Understanding Job AttributesLooking at different statements about what is important for me in a job, I found I value having a bit of freedom but not too much because than I would not get anything done. Also having a great work environment, friendly coworkers, bright build.
I chose to drink more water for my 30-day challenge. I chose this challenge because I do not drink enough water and I think drinking more water will make me “healthier”. I think I met about 26 days out of the 30 days, my longest successful streak was 5 days but the weekend came and I forgot. The score I give myself is 3/5, those 4 days really messed up my schedule. I have noticed that I go to the bathroom more often also I get thirsty easier, next time I would find a different way to keep track of my progress. Something like this would have helped me a great deal. If I would do the 30 Day Challenge again, I would choose to do the Draw a Picture a Day challenge, I'm already in art and trying to draw something not at my skill level is frustrating, I have the ideas just not the skill. After my 30 Day challenge, my mind feels clearer and I feel cleaner, it could be the water drinking or something else. I could never remember to bring my water bottle when I needed it the most, and my bottle was with when I wasn't thirsty, it was quite annoying. I learned that the more water you drink the more you go to the bathroom, in the middle of class, 3 am, watching a play, anywhere your bladder does not care. I found this challenge annoying because of all the bathroom breaks.
I chose to drink more water for my 30 day challenge. I chose this challenge because I do not drink enough water and I think drinking more water will make me “healthier”.
I think I’m not doing too bad but drinking to amount of water I want (3-4 bottles) is the hardest part. One of ‘motivations’ is when I’m thirsty I drink, I went out for dinner last week and I drank about 3 big cups of water in 1 ½ hr. I don’t get as tired during the day which makes going to school a little more enjoyable. Recording my Process is also a challenge to remember, other days I just have nothing to say, it’s drink water not finding a cure.
My hardest part so far has been recording my process.
Yes, I get thirsty really easily, and going to the bathroom often.
I think I want to change how I record my process, to make it easier. Remind us what your challenge was and why you chose it.My challenge is drink more water. How do you feel you’re doing so far? Why?It was annoying at first, going to the bathroom more often, getting thirsty quicker. I think I should be drinking even more water, I usually drink 2-3 bottles of water a day, I could drink a bottle or half a bottle in one class but bring the water bottle is so hard to remember. I have a bit to work on. What has been the hardest part so far, if any?I have a hard time remembering to bring my bottle of water. Have you observed any changes so far? What are they?How I feel? I don’t feel any different but I’m hoping I will feel a change soon. Do you need to make an changes at this point to make sure you’re successful or to make the challenge easier for yourself?I would like to get a different water bottle, if I value the bottle more I will more likely not lose it or bring the bottle to my classes.
This is the types of bottles I will be using. NOV. 7, 2016Remembering to bring my bottle is hard, I drank about two bottles full of water. NOV. 8, 2016I have had to go to the bathroom a lot more, but I feel the same. NOV. 9, 2016I woke at 5 am because I had to go to the bathroom, not pleased. I think the bathrooms and I will be seeing a lot more of each other.
30 Day Challenge Planning Questionnaire Your name and period:
Description: Charlie West was framed for the murder of his best friend, he wakes up being tortured, escapes, but has no place to run to. The whole country has turned against him, even his parents. Now the only thing to do is break more rules and prove himself innocent. The Homeland Series is very actiony and twisted, how could a whole country hate a 17-year-old boy for something he didn't do, I guess they didn't know that he was innocent. I love and hate the cliffhangers at the end of each book. The Homelanders Series is number 10 because it took too long to get to the end of the book, 5 books. Sources:
Description: Seo Jung-Hoo is an errand boy with the codename Healer, one day he gets an errand, to get the DNA from 4 girls and 1 of the 4 girls turns out to be his dead father's best friend's daughter, who he hasn't seen since they were both 5. Together with reporter Kim Moon Ho, the three try and find out what happened to the fathers of the Seo Jung Hoo and Chae Young Shin. The soundtrack in Healer is insanely awesome, I get shivers every time I listen to it. Korean dramas tell the stories very well, so the story line make sense and they build up the characters so that we, as the audience, can feel everything they feel. I like the action and romance in this show, the two main characters are meant for each other. The ending was an ending, it answered all my unanswered questions, and gave the characters a happy ending.
In the Home Alone series, the youngest child in the family, somehow, has to stay at home alone, he usually notices the bad guys and sets a bunch of traps in his house. the bad guys are dumb enough to go into a house with a 10-year-old's booby traps in every room. This Series is a Christmas favorite at our house, we could watch it a million times and still laugh, it's a Christmas classic. These movies are pure comedy which is good for Christmas, that is the main reason why Home Alone is on my list.
