Facebook

Facebook is a social network were people either close to you or from any other place in the world connect with each other and share. People can share pictures, send messages, share music, games, like other commercial pages, become a fan of companies, celebrities just to name a few. I like using Facebook because it keeps me connected and inform of what is going on in my friends and families life. I can see pictures of how they are and participate a little in their lives. Lately I have seen things that have disturbed me in Facebook, for example people are posting everything they do in their lives, things like when they have sex, if they go to the bathroom. I think it is good to share but don’t you think that is a little too much sharing? I do share things in my page about what’s going on in my life but not everything and not with everybody. Also another thing that disturbed me is that some people not all are using the site as a dating site. I have receive and many of my other female friends have too, friend requests and messages of people looking for love or sex; that’s sick because most of us are not looking for either on Facebook. This are just two things that I some what dislike a bout Facebook what do you think?

From Zero

When I was in high school I did not know what I wanted to do after graduation just work or go to college. I graduated about six years ego from John F. Kennedy High School and I can honestly say I did not receive enough guidance and information I needed to know exactly what I wanted and how to get it, college wise. I thought of going to college to get a degree in Business Administration, but I did not take this serious enough even though I did go to a few college interviews in New York City. I got married at the age of 15 so when I broke up with my ex the same year I graduated form high school I left New York City and started a new journey in Atlanta Georgia. When I got here I forgot all about college and I started working until about three years ego at the age of 20 I saw a commercial in TV from Georgia Medical Institute now called Everest about becoming a medical assistant. So I attended this school and became a medical assistant and started working in a medical office for which I worked for almost 3 years before coming to GPC. Even though I feel like I wasted time and money going to this school, thanks to becoming a medical assistant now I know exactly what I want to do with my career. I am going to pursue a MD degree, I know it is not going to be easy and I know this is going to be a big challenge but to me it is worth it.
