Bucket list

The key to success in life is to set goals for yourself and to make sure that you accomplish them. Right now as a college student academic and professional goals seem to be at the top of my priority. Personal goals are obviously extremely important for everyone because if you do not set goals for yourself, then you will never have the ambition to get ahead in life. As human beings, we are always looking for ways to get better results in life with better and higher personal achievements.

As of right now in college I am looking to complete my general education. I am still searching for a major, but my career goal is to start an insurance agency. The reason is, my mom’s boss who owns an insurance agency and is filthy rich. In about four years hopefully I will be graduating from college and on my way to starting a job with a decent salary. After I get my degree, I may be attending Farmers Insurance classes to be licensed so that I can be an insurance sales man.

In ten years, I will be twenty eight and hopefully I will be a successful insurance agent or sales men. Once I have established a career in insurance I may be looking to start a family but I would like to have my own house or apartment with my own car all in my name. I live in the bay area now and I will still want to live in the bay area forever. In twenty years I will still trying to become more successful in my career, hopefully in insurance and personally I will hopefully have a family and helping them succeeds in their personal and academic goals.

I will do everything that I can to reach my goals because I am the oldest of my parent’s children and oldest of all my cousins. I have to be a model for them so that they can be confident in going to college and reaching their goals. I am the one that they look up to for inspiration and guidance. And even if my goals end up changing, I will have the right attitude to succeed.

Non Muse Event #2 (revised)

I attended the meeting for Joe West after the two fires last week. There were two separate incidence that occurred and it is still under investigation at this point. The meeting informed us that while the police and firemen were in the building, a separate fire was started on a different floor. The fires were started by some one and were not just random fires.

Non Muse Event

I attended the opening men's basketball game at the Event Center. This was my first time in the Event Center and I had a great time. It was exciting to see my friend Jerry get in the game. When He got inthe game, everyone i was sitting with was cheering for him. I never even knew that there was a basketball court there.

The song “Pour Some Sugar on Me” by the band Def Leppard contains lyrics that are obviously about a girl giving a man sweet love. Not making love together but a women showing complete affection to the man. The song is not just about one specific kind of girl, it is for all girls. This song is also about how much the man loves the women’s sweet sugar from his head to his feet and can not seem to have enough of it. The song also is not about a one night stand or just a fling, he asks in the song if he could be her man. This song is not as shallow as it sounds, it’s not just a sexual thing, and it also brings up the subject of commitment. To me, these lyrics scream what I though college was all about. These lyrics to me are simply talking about girls and guys making love and pouring it all over each other. This song that is about sex and you can tell by the first time he says”Pour Some Sugar on me!” I also really like Def Leppard because their drummer only has one arm and he is awesome at the drums.

drugs (revised)

Drugs and alcohol are two of the biggest temptations that are presented to freshmen in college next to sex. Ecstasy and Marijuana are the two biggest drugs in college from my personal experience and opinion. But there are other drugs like prescription drugs or more intense drugs like cocaine. Alcohol is definitely the greatest temptation because it is legal and freshmen interact with individuals who are of age to drink and those individuals allow people who are not of age to drink. Alcohol and marijuana are the only two substances that I have mentioned that I feel is socially acceptable. Anything else beside those two is probably not good and could potentially kill you off of a one time use.

The temptations of all theses types of drugs are presented at parties, in the dorms, and even on the way to class. I am completely positive that people drink and smoke weed on the weekend but I am also positive that people are doing other drugs that some people would not even think of doing. Every drug that you can think of is completely available to anyone who wants it. The real temptations come not when some one you know offers you something, its when someone that you do not know is when you will really be tested.
