Section LC17

I know the semester is not over yet, but it is coming to a close.  I just wanted to know everyone’s feelings on their first semester because very few of you will actually tell me in person.  How do you feel about this semester? Teachers? Peers? What do you think about splitting with our LC or are some of you indifferent? Personally, I enjoyed all of my classes and I feel very blessed to have had this specific LC.  Hopefully, we will have some classes together!

Date/Time: 12:30-2:30
Description: In this workshop, we talked about different factors that we should consider in choosing our career.  Some include values, interests, and personality.  For values, we did an exercise where we rated what we value the most to the least (ex: Creativity, Economic Security, Leisure Time/Family Life, Earnings, Helping Others etc).  For personality, we were given a paper explaining the six general occupational themes: Realistic, Investigative, Artistic, Social, Enterprising, and Conventional and each theme listed personalities that match with these type of jobs.

I went to one of the art exhibits today and it was basically about how to appreciate abstract art for what it is. It was somewhat boring though, but thankfully it ended quick.

I went two weeks ago and honestly, they just spoke about everything I already knew. It was basically about how you should present yourself and they spoke about resumes and interviews. It was very basic and I was a part of In School Youth Employment Program (ISYEP) throughout my entire high school career so I’ve been to multiple classes like this. I personally didn’t learn anything new but the information is helpful to anybody who haven’t already been to any workshops like this.

This workshop is to help you achieve better researching skills, as well as give you tips as to what is and what may not be legitimate.

Just thought it would be funny and helpful to have a blog for everyone that is doing the soc work.  If you have writer’s block or need some help then feel free to say something!

We have 5-7 page draft for English and Music Exam…..Maybe Psychology exam?

It’s midterms week(s), and we got lots of stuff to do. I don’t know about y’all but I did talk to a few people, and none of them had even a third of the paper done. I was wondering if anybody was interested in the idea of…nobody attending the class on Tuesday o.o

Is it due this Tuesday? I can’t write a 9 page report in one week?
