I’ve always had fun taking apart

computers and putting them

together as a child. I also had an

artistic side because I loved making

things. In high school at an elective

fair is where I learned about a Web

Design class. My mom was trying

to start her own business, and

I figured enrolling in this class

would be a great way to help

her so I can start her website.

When I enrolled in the class I

ended up loving it and decided

that Graphic Design is the career

I want to pursue.

At a magazine an art director would work to create the specific look and feel of the

entire magazine, ensuring there’s a unified visual look throughout. If you notice that

certain magazines maintain different types of “looks” -- with certain layouts and certain

types of images -- you’re picking up on the work of the art director.

Film Editor Music

My second job; plan B, is to edit films from things such as commercials, to animated comedies, or working with Dream Works or Pixar. When my mother gave me my mac I started playing around with it and I came across the software iMovie. I recorded a video of my friend playing basketball and started editing it just for fun using iMovie. My video came out great being that it was the first video I ever edited. I presented my senior project last year I designed a website and edited a video and received many compliments, I knew for sure after that, film editing is something I would like to get into.

I want to accomplish this goal

in order to be successful in

life. To make this happen I

have to stay motivated and

keep working through all the

obstacles that come with

college. I now attend

Valdosta State University; I

plan to transfer to another

college soon. Both of my

parents didn’t finish college

their first run, and I would

like to make that change and

graduate the first time so I

wouldn’t have to go back to

school later to try to get a

better job.

My family and I have lost touch

over the past few years, and my goal

right now is to fix it. When I was

seven my parents divorced and ever

since then the relationship between

my father and I wasn’t the same.

My goal is to change that and try

spending time with him more. I

have a younger brother and sister

that lives with him that look up to

me, but I don’t spend enough time

with them. To accomplish this I

need to start calling them more

often and making plans to see them

when I go home. I would like to

complete this goal by the end of the

summer.

   

My fourth goal is to make a positive

difference in the world. I’ve always

had a problem with litter; every time I

see it I always pick it up and throw it

away. I would like to join an

organization where I could help to

clean the community. In order to

make this happen I have to look

online to find organizations to join. I

plan to complete this goal within the

next few years. A few hurdles in the

way are joining organizations through

this school where you need a certain

GPA. So to overcome this I have to

work even harder to bring up my

grades.

Steps 1. Search for an

organization to join 2. Bring up GPA if

organization is part of campus

3. Find time and transportation

Most common litter offenders: ü Men between 18-34 years ü Smokers ü People who eat at Fast Food

places at least 2x per week ü Drives more than 50

miles/day ü People who go out for

entertainments at least 1x per week

Throughout my life my mom has

been sheltering me and taking care of

me through anything, and although

I’m not complaining I would like to

become more independent. To do this

I plan to start over the summer by

taking a class at KSU and getting a job

to make money, to be able to pay for a

few things on my own. Next year of

college I plan to do work study to help

with my tuition. This goal will

probably take about a year, because it’s

going to take awhile for me to prove to

my mother that I am responsible

enough.

 

Steps 1. Get a job 2. Save money to start

paying for things on my own
