Leasing and Financing

I am going to finance this car.
The only difference really between financing and leasing is that financing is $26.12 more than leasing. For the interest rate, I would have to pay $2318.24 added onto the $24,100. When I'm done paying everything off I would have paid $26418.24 over 6 years. I prefere to finance it.

Portfolio assignment.2

Select 6 pieces of work/activities (guest speaker presentations and field trips can be included) that demonstrate your learning. Base your assignments/activities off the following:

• process: choose an assignment with a number of steps you had to complete in order to be successful
• The YPI Project- We had to re do and change our project many times before it was ready, and we had to email and call and meet our charity to make sure everything was as good as it could be.
• perseverance: assignments where at first you found difficult but worked hard at, without giving up and eventually were successful
• The YPI Project- At first I didn't really want to do the project, and it was hard to get started and seemed boring but after meeting with the charity we pulled through and got everything done, and it ended up being really good.
• risk taking: assignments in which you moved outside of your comfort zone and tried something new or unexpected
• The STI Project- It's kind of an awkward topic to get up in front of the class to talk about. We didn't want to say all the symptoms but pulled through.

• favourite: assignments you enjoyed the most
• The Worksafe BC Fieldtrip- It was nice to get out of the classroom and have a hands on experience.
• The Drop It And Drive Presentation- It was really memorable and it was interesting to have the presenters come in and talk to us about something that was an actually issue in our community, especially with kids our age.
• something of personal significance: assignments that are significant to you in any way
• The Collage Project- It was significant to be because it was everything that was relevant to my life.
• The Worksafe BC Presentation- Having the lady come in and talk to us about our rights as workers was really good considering we are all just starting to get into working. We also all have parents or other family members that work so that was something that was significant to me.
• burn it: assignments you wish you could burn and never look at again
• My Dream Career-I don't really have a project that I wish I could burn, but the dream career project was kind of boring.

To be honest I didn't really have any goals going into this course. No one really explain what planning 10 was, so I really didn't know what to expect.

The overall work habit I would have to give myself an S

Nutrition Blog

I think the only nutrition goal that I have to continue my eating habits. I eat mostly healthy because my mom usually cooks healthy home meals, and she doesn't really buy food from fast food places. Right now I want to maintain my current weight. The only modification I would really make to my food habits is to eat a bit less carbs and eat more vegetables and fruits. But I carb load before big volleyball tournaments. I could do this by maybe having a serving of fruits with my lunch, or putting more vegetables in my sandwiches.
I don't really have any limitations that prevent me from eating healthy. The food my mom buys and cooks is usually organic and healthy. I have more limitations to eating unhealthy because it's almost never available in my house. I could take away the informed dinning thing that we learned about so I can know what is in the food I'm eating if I do eat out.

Portfolio Assignment

For my work habit, I think I deserve an S. My work habits are sometimes inconsistant. I do stray off task sometimes but I think for the most part I do get my work done. For example, the collage project, I didn't link it to my page when I could've because of issues I had with the computer, but I eventually re-did the assignment and finished it.
In this class I feel that I deserve around 70-80%. An example of something I feel I did really well on is my dream career project.
Another assignment I felt I worked well on is the employability skills blog.
My effort in the class is not always consistant, but for the most part it's good. An example of my work that I but good effort into is my career cruising blog. And an example of a project that I could've put more effort into is my collage.
Over all in this class I think I deserve around a 75%.

Employability Skills

My employability skills are:

Communication

• Outgoing
• Social
• Trustworthy
• Honest

Problem Solving

• Patient 
• Determined

Teamwork

• Openminded
• Cooperative

Personal Responsiblity

• Organized
• Responsible

The results from the quiz we took didn't really surprise me, my strengths were mostly in Demonstrating positive attitudes and behavior, communication, and working with others. My weaknesses were in using numbers and being adaptable. I was okay in learning continuously, participating in projects and tasks, and thinking and problem solving.

I would be the perfect person for a position in a job because I am confindent and determined. I would show my empoloyer that I can handle different types of situations, and be openminded towards my co-workers.

Career Cruising

My long term education goals are to go to a university and study nursing. I've been wanting to go to a University in the states for a while, especially Penn State. For education I need Pre-Cal 11, Chemistry 12, Biology 12, and English 12. As for post secondary, I would need to study to become a registered nurse, and then I could go into study more medical fields to become a nurse practitioner, or a pediatric nurse. Trinity
Western would be a good choice for post secondary because they teach in faith, which corresponds with my religion. Arizona State could also be a really good option because it is the top ranked research university, and that would help if I want to study biology, or other subject that involve research. Playing volleyball will help getting into university, because I could get scholarships. I think it will take about 6 or 7 years after I graduate grade 12 to reach this goal. Some changelles I could face are I could not do well in university, or I might not be able to find a job. If I don't do well in university, I could take a course in a smaller school to the subjects I didn't do well in.

Some of the results I got from my career cruising test are:
Nurse Practitioner
Psychiatrist
Massage therapist
Athletic therapist

Personality Quizzes

I think that all of the personality quizzes were fairly accurate. I think my learning type was especially accurate because I work really well with visual teaching. Nothing really surprised me in any of my results as I somewhat expected all of them. I think the career quiz gets me more into nursing, as to be a pediatric nurse you need to be friendly, and have to be good with people. My results for my holland quiz and my Learning style quiz were similar.

After I  graduate high school, I would like to take a few months off to travel with a friends. Once I do that I would like to go to University on a volleyball scholership.
   The universities I have been thinking of going to are Trinity Western U, Arizona State U, or Penn State U. Going to school as an international student would be a really great expirence, and after I while I could get a duel citizenship. Not to mention all 3 schools have a really good a really good volleyball program.
      In university I want to take a nursing program.
