Goals

PERSONAL GOAL
My personal goal for this semester is to get my driving stuff finished. I am 16 and would be legally able to drive but i have been avoiding my permit test. So this semester my goal is this: I will study for my test, i will get my permit, i will continue working at Lombardo's to earn money to fix my car and i will get my license. My family has a lot of burdens on their shoulders and if i did this it would help not only them but me. I am determined to get all of my vehicle problems solved, that is my goal.
SCHOOL GOAL
My school goal is to get at least a 3.0 and to not have as many absences and tardies. With how far i live everyday is a constant struggle trying to get to school and because of this i get into some trouble with the school now and again. All of my tardies make me look bad and I'm tired of having to deal with it. So this semester i will wake up an hour earlier if i must but i will continue to make my reputation as a student look better. i have already been trying to accomplish this since 9th grade first semesters mess up on my part. So that is my school goal.
INFO TECH GOAL
My info tech goal for this semester is to keep up with the rest of the class. To be honest i don't even want to be in this class. ii had thought that it would be more about taking computers apart and putting them back together. You know learn about the parts and stuff, then i come to find out its all about web design. I am absolutely slow as can be when it comes to typing and looking things up on the Internet so i have trouble keeping up. This has effected may grade drastically. So my goal in my info tech class for this semester is to keep up and not give up.

What is the benefit of easily connecting to people and information?

The benefit of connecting with people easily is that you are able to converse more efficiently. If you are able to get in contact with people easier than you may be able to get things finished sooner. like say you have to do a report on your family's ethnic background but your parents don't know much about it, then you can  contact your grandparents and get the information. Another good thing about it is that you can be reunited with old distant relatives and friends.

MY own creative app.

If i were to create a app. for an ipod, phone, or computer i would make it something spectacular and entertaining. I would make my app. a test. It would ask you a series of questions about yourself and your life and then it would anaylze these questions based on your own zodiac table. I would like this app. because i enjoy astrology and i think its fun to learn about how much your personality fits your zodiac, rising, and acending signs. If it was analyzing your answers based on your Zodiac table it would be able to show different things about yourself because there is a lot of different traits because you have twelve houses of zodiac symbols and meanings.
