Its a New Year

Happy new year everyone! I'm posting this right at 12:00am at the Embarcadero.

Its a Wednesday

Its Wednesday the 28th and I confused this day with a YearUp day so I accidentally woke up at about 5am. I was quite happy that I didn't have to go to the bart station. So I proceeded to go back to sleep.

Post X-mas

Had a nice xmas with family, I spent most of it at home watching movies back to back like "In Time" and "Cowboys and Aliens". After I took a nice nap, I woke up at about 2am and Skyped a few friends.

Internships, Ready!

To me someone who is internship ready can look at a difficult task and feel confident that they can complete this task in a correct and professional manner. I plan to change the work ethic I have come to be a custom to and apply a more efficient to my business skills. I want to be able to conduct myself in my internship as professionally as possible and show my supervisors that I am not here for an internship; I am here for a career. This process may have to include cutting down a few things outside of the work place I enjoy, that don’t necessarily help me achieve my goal to have a successful career. The main thing I would like to change is my tendency to have an “I can do it later” attitude. It can get in the way of a lot of great opportunities and set me back from many goals I can easily achieve.

First jobs first

My first and only job that I am still currently working at is lifeguarding and a water safty instructor. I have been working as a lifeguard for about 7 or 8 years now, I started when I was very young and I wasn't all that excited for it. I had been forced into a Jr lifeguarding course at about age 12 by my mother, she told me that this would be a great skill for me to have sense I was a swimmer anyways. After I finished the course the job grew on me after a while and I decided to continue with it. Now I am one of the longest working employees since that time. The job isn't that difficult after you finish all of your training, your main duties consist of being caucious and curtious to the patrons, cleaning and maintanece of the pool, and the abilitiy to act accordingly when an emergencey arises. The perks I would have to say is the free, unlimited acssess to the pools recouses and being able to use the pool at will anytime I please to use it. Some of the downsides include having to clean up after messy patrons or bodily fluids of any sort, but the benefit of knowing that I am helping someone or saving someone's life out weighs that fact in any sense.

Mural vs. Occupy

The mural, Frozen Assets and the occupy movement are very similar in that they represent similar points. In the mural you see in the middle level that there are people sleeping in cots because of the depression which is similar to the reason the occupy movement started. The occupy movement tries to make their selves prominent to the top 1% of the world by staying near U.S. government establishments. 

An inspiration

The biggest inspiration I have had to date has been the yearup program. I have never had the drive to perform the best of my ability puerly for my own benefit for a long time if not ever. Yearup gives me the inspiration to create a success for myself and to continue on until I have a carreer. I want to make a name and profit from the skills that I aquire from this program.
