What I plan to do over Christmas break is, well, I don't really know. probably play destiny, hang out with friends, get some R&R. I have no real plans for any breaks or vacations, (anything I plan, almost everything happens to make sure it goes down a toilet) I just, go with the flow of things. What I hope to get for Christmas this year, just, family. I'm not trying to sound noble, but my Grandma has Alzheimers, and no one knows how long she's got left. I hardly ever get to see my two youngest cousins, or my aunt and uncle. But present wise, probably either smash bros. 3ds, or some new knives and swords. (what they're cool looking, don't hate)

What I hope to accomplish in college is, well, to pass I guess. Survive to graduation. I'm going to be a police/swat officer, not have a "sit behind a desk" job. I'm to hyper for that. I'm going to college for three people. Me, myself, and I. I'm not going for family reasons, I'm going because that's what stands between me and my goal. I know I don't know everything I need to, which is why I wouldn't mind going. The characteristics of the college I want to go to is, I want to be taught something that I will actually need later on in life, not the Pythagorean theorem, or where where the sentence ends, or what happened in 1852. (sorry to anyone that this offends). The input I will seek would probably be my parents, or my own instinct. college will achieve my goals by (hopefully) teaching me something I might actually need to know.

I have no real plans for thanksgiving break. It's like every time I make a plan for a break/vacation, everything happens to make sure that I don't get to do it. now what I want to do is probably hang out with friends, family, and play my game: Destiny. I might just hit level thirty, who knows.

Ok, finding a job online would be hard. period. You'd have to find what you actually want to do, and most kids at 16 or 17 don't even want to go to school. add a job on top of that? not really going to work out. I have an option not to far from my dads house in Lancaster, a collectibles store. All that I would probably do is clean floors or windows or toilets, or best case scenario for me would be stack the items from a truck. But at least I would have a pay. Plus, I'm in a collectibles store. I'd get to see or even buy things that I normally wouldn't see. What can I do to prepare? Know my way around the store for starters, and not look like I'm begging for a job. Plus, why wouldn't a place not hire someone who is there to work because they're around what they like? That to me is motivation to go. Another thing I could do is a knife shoppe in the parks mall. I love those blades. But I'd probably need to wait until I'm 18 for legal reasons. I already have some blades from other areas, and I'm extremely careful, believe it or not. I know one wrong move could hurt someone, but I'd know what to do, and what not to do. Don't swing a blade, ESPECIALLY if other people are around, keep my hand awayfrom a sharp edge, and don't talk a costumers ear off. They ask a question, answer and then leave it. Unless they want the conversation. I have this all planned out, no problem.

The movie to me was one of those "went from nothing, to something greater than ever thought possible" type of incidents. the only difference in this movie than the others I've seen, is this one was real. My.My favorite part of the film was when Chris Wrote the proper information on Mrs. Murry's, er, box. it showed that Chris actually did care for her friend who just lost her mother. It also showed that at the time, no one cared of what happened, not the grandpa, Liz's dad probably didn't know, everything has just, fallen apart for her best friend. I don't know if I would be as resilient as Liz. I don't handle loss very well, so I may not have ended up with any emotion at all, or my only emotions would be hate, rage, and anger. I had my first breaking point at nine, when I lost my first friend. I came out different than I used to be. So to be surrounded by all of the drugs, drama, the crazy moments, There's probably no way I could keep it together for very long.

one thing that surprised me about my budget is how much in debt I was. I mean, yeah i knew I'd be in debt, but by over $2,000? JEEZ! No, I'm no where near that responsibility, but I will be. I realized I better be good in the house, cause in three months or so, i can get booted out. not good. I can save money now and get a job.

My personal top career choices are: Police or Swat team. I want to help people, and I hate sitting still when I can actually do something about it.

What stresses me out, well, a lot of things do. No control, waiting, stacks of work, etc. But I can go on in cycles. their are times where I'm just stressed without a real reason. That could be related to me keeping things inside. How I deal with it, sometimes, I just don't, and other times well... things can get a little, uh, explosive. Now isn't one of those times.

7 - 13: You've got your life in fairly good control. (sometimes) Work on the choices and habits that could still be causing you some unnecessary stress in your life.

A.My current organizational method is in my backpack. what needs to be done is toward the front, and what is complete goes toward the back. it works if I'm not real rushed.

B. I'll answer this one later (It'll never get done)

C. I can fight procrastination by staying on top of things.

Introductions and plans.

Hello, my name is Joshua Johnson, but most people either call me Josh, or Joshua. I'm seventeen years old, but can act quite a bit younger, and can be a little short tempered. what I hope to learn in this class is how to enroll in a college. I plan on being in law enforcement so I figured that would require something like this class. plus, if I turn in some college applications, then I know what college will accept me in the future. all I need to do now is get back in the shape I was in when I was thirteen.
