Career Plans

The career that I am interested is in the technology field. I want to do something related to computers. I'd like to be a IT manager. Information technology is the application of computers and its equipment to store, they manipulate data and they are often in the context of a business. I want to learn the programming languages and be a software developer. As you can see, I many choices but I'm not exactly sure. I want to work in a office and spent my day on them.

The reason I thought about this career is that I like to spent time with the software programming. Another reason I want to chose this career is because of my brother. He has influenced me with my goals. He, himself, wants to a computer engineer and he's almost there. I'm trying to follow his steps to reach my goals. Lastly, I want to work for what I like to do and not being forced. IT is something that would interest me life long.

I see myself in the office working and finding the solution of the problem. I like my schedule busy and I'd like to be occupied.

1) Some qualification you to be eligible to an IT manager is that you need a bachelor's degree in the working area. To have a higher level job you will need experience from 5 to 10 years.

2) From my point of view, I'm not yet suited for this career but to be one I will take some extra classes about this topic.

3) I can take computer related classes that are available in school or take some online tuitions.

Don't Do Drugs PSA Poster

My topic was about "Don't do Drugs". There is about 7.0 percent of people aged 12 or older that are users of drugs. Drug is that material that messes with your mind, body, money, and especially your life. It has a good effect on you only for temporarily but leaves the bad effect permanently. The truth is that a drug has ruined several lives and you don't want to be attack by drugs.

I learned that you can establish major infection like lung cancer and malnutrition and other diseases because of drugs. You can also adapt short-memory loss if you smoke frequently.It causes you to lose your ability to remember things, and you won't be able to think clearly or creative. Also, you will have hard time focusing on studying.We already have enough drama, there is no need for extra.

The interesting facts i used from the website Say no to drugs was that smoking can cause short-term memory loss and also it causes various cancer like lip cancer, lung cancer, mouth cancer, and many others.

My rough sketches and ideas are here :

My finished PSA informs and educates the viewers that smoking can cause various side-effects such as cancer, malnutrition, short-term memory loss, and eventually it will kill you.

Color Psychology

In the Color Psychology article, the author states the psychology of color is based on the mental and emotional effects. It says that color may influence whether you like or dislike an object. As an example, cool colors made you relax and the warm colors make you comfortable. For advertising purposes color is used in an attempt to make people hungry, also it gives you feelings of calmness or energy. For my perspective, the color blue is my favorite it represents calmness, wisdom, loyalty,and truth. The article reference can be found here: Color Psychology.

Another website of advertise of color : The Language of Advertising , by Peter Sells and Sierra Gonzalez, and its officially from The Stanford University. It describes the meaning of every color and it explains it very well. It says that color reflects the person's mood. For an example, pink is very sensitive color. I personally choose blue or even teal. That means that you are very sensitive individual, and have excellent taste. It symbolizes that you very royal and you have high level of faith and hope.

One major attraction that Paris has is the Eiffel Tower. It is a beautiful architecture and its the world's tallest structure at 1,050 feet (320 m) until Manhattan's Chrysler Building was completed. Not only that, Paris has other places to visit like The Lourve, Basilica of the Sacre Coeur, and La Conciergerie. Paris is considered the city of the love because of its romantic language.
