Which factor plays a greater role in shaping your future career choice: your genuine interest and passion for the field, or the financial benefits and stability it can provide? In your response, explain which one you prioritize and why, and consider how this decision might impact your long-term happiness, motivation, and overall quality of life.

 Writing Prompt: The greater role in shaping my future career choice is the genuine interest and passion rather than the financial benefits and stability. I say this because I do not want to do something for the rest of my life that I will not enjoy. When it comes to financial benefits and stability, overall that is awesome. However, i'd like to try building that on my own. There are many ways and opportunities to achieve that if I just try. Making this choice will positively affect my future happiness because I am doing something I want to do, that I enjoy, and that I am passionate about. 

Summary: Today in class we worked on a worksheet about researching careers and how it can benefit us. 

Reflection: Today I learned various careers I didn't know I may have an interest in, I also learned how it can really benefit me economically and professionally.

Think about a moment when you challenged your parent(s)’ rules or expectations. How did you feel, and what was the outcome?

 Writing Prompt: Growing up, it was mandatory, according to my mom, to serve in our church. There were many options I could have done so, but my mom thought dancing was for me. There were moments where I did like it, but that didn't feel enough for me. I served in the dance ministry for 9 years of my life. Slowly, throughout those years, I felt so drained and was always questioning my purpose. I never went against my mother because at the moment, she was more strict and very religious. Until one day, I had finally had enough. I told my mother I didn't want to dance anymore. I can see anger in her eyes. I already knew how it was going to go, but I also knew that yelling and causing a scene was not the way to go. She was, of course, yelling and trying to understand (this was at church). I simply said I couldn't do it anymore. I'm supposed to enjoy serving the lord, but how can I do that if I feel empty and remorseful? During that year, I was taking singing classes at scho...

Describe a time when you felt completely lost

 Writing Prompt: A time when I felt completely lost was when my grandmother passed away. In my culture, we value our grandmothers. She passed away during COVID due to heart failure. The reason I felt completely lost was that my mother was never home due to her work, as she was both the woman and the man of the house. Although my siblings were there, my grandma was my mother too. It felt like my whole heart was ripped from my chest. I did not eat for a few days; I did not want to leave myself room. I fell into depression. All I can do is stare and zone out. It was like that for about 2-3 months. I've never witnessed or been through a loss in my family, so it took a big toll on me. Till this day, I still feel like a piece of me left and died within me, but I did find peace in the darkness. I was able to find bits and pieces to put me back together, and I found my way.  Summary: Today in class, we presented our identity masks, and then we completed our blog post.  Reflection...

Write about a moment when you had to step out of your comfort zone

 Writing prompt: One moment I had to step out of my comfort zone was to help my niece's friends shower. They were having a sleepover, and normally, before bed, they would take a shower. I normally shower my niece; however, since she had her friend. I had to shower her as well. I told my brother id she could do it, but she was busy cooking dinner. So, I helped the little girl shower. It was definitely a big No for me, but at the same time, it was a sacrifice I was willing to make.  Summary: Today in class, we finished our project. Reflection: Stepping out of your comfort zone is okay sometimes. I say this because when you step out of your comfort zone, you're putting yourself in a position you've never been in before. It can either go well or not. However, you at least now know.
