MOS Homerun = All Seven Certifications
Elijah has aspiration out of this world!
From their Task 9 introduction email of A1 Accounts Setup and Professional Communication, Tsz and Chandani (who goes by Lama) both want start their own business.
I hope more students will share their goals and realize those goals ^_^
My goal is to eventually start my own business, although I'm unsure on the type of business. I like accounting so maybe something in that field.
ReplyDeleteI want to better myself and eventually be financially secure. My goal is to work in Cyber Security field and I know there will be challenges in my way but I will keep moving day by day.
ReplyDeleteI plan on getting MOS-Expert as it will be beneficial to my career. I won't need to start my own business as my father recently created one.
ReplyDeleteHello Professor Wu, Although I am the only student pursuing an Associate of Science degree majority of the students seem to aim at graduating with similar degrees. I am currently on a path to graduate with an Associate of Science degree but I do plan on changing it to Business after transferring to UNLV. I plan on building a career out of managing business or project management and hopefully I can find a career in a short amount of time after getting my bachelor's degree.
ReplyDeleteI plan to get out of my comfort zone this year. I will be taking advantage of this course by taking the MOS certification exams, which I hope I pass. :)
ReplyDeleteThanks for your encouragement. Dear classmates, let's work hard and success in this class.
ReplyDeleteHopefully this class will inspire me to challenge myself in the world of computers and its applications. Get me out of my comfort zone. Maybe I too could become an expert?
ReplyDeleteI plan to stay focused. I'd really like to maintain good grades for my next semester.
ReplyDeleteHonestly at this point I just want to start work as paralegal next year. If I like the practice, I might go into law school and eventually become a lawyer.
ReplyDeleteMy major goal in life is just to live comfortably. I grew up with not much and when I decide to start a family and become a mother I want to be able to give my kids the world.
ReplyDeleteI have too many goals, and I feel like not enough time.
ReplyDeleteIn my personal life:
I would love to learn how to become a better human being. I've struggled with my emotions and my mental health for several years now (since I was in the Navy) and things have only been made worse. Sometimes I feel like life just kind of slips through my fingers, and the inability to grasp it brings an overwhelming anxiety and depression that seem unbearable at times. I would also love to publish a book. I don't really care about what. I haven't decided what exactly I'd love to write about, but I would love to see my book at Barnes and Noble in the new book selection, even if it doesn't make me famous, or wealthy. I would love to know that someone out there in the world is reading my art.
In my professional and academic life:
I am currently trying to finish my Associate of Applied Science in Paralegal Studies. I'm not too sure if I would even pursue to become a licensed Attorney, small steps first. In a perfect world setting, If I pass all of my classes with passing grades, and the sun rises every day for the next 365 days, then I'll be able to graduate in Summer of 2024. I just need to get a better handle of my time management. I currently work at a law firm, and eventually I would love to be able to become a person who they can trust with more complicated tasks. I'm our intake specialist, but I'm always hungry for more.
I am so happy to see the diversity in this class. I think we all need to be able to study and work in fields that we would like to and contribute to the community in positive way.
