Blogging at it's best?

Blogging is a new concept that many people have yet to touch base with. It is big, it's bold, and it's all the hype. For most people that I have personally spoken with bogging comes off as a bit of a joke. However, when you sit back and look at the convenience of a blog, it starts to grow on you.
When I was first told that I would be required to blog for a college assignment, it almost made me sick. The problem was I was knocking something that I had never tried. My perspective on blogging was, that as a whole it was for either computer geeks trying to get the inside scoop on when the next World of Warcraft tourney was, or over zealous dog trainers who can't get enough pooch info.
Those assumptions were blown out of proportion and just plain wrong. Blogging has made the community writing portion of english1010 easier, and as far as I'm concerned much more efficient. Blogging has grown on me since this assignment has started, it allows a entire class to share thoughts and writing with a speed that I for one could have never imagined otherwise. Not to mention that we don't even have to attend class on Fridays because of it. I'd like to see a handwritten persuasive essay achieve that...

The summary of a summary

Thus far we have covered the idea that there may not be as large a demand for a lot of careers that are needed right now. This thought may come as a surprise to many individuals. Even if you shocked, appalled, disgusted, or just downright disappointed that I am bringing up such a concept. It is still true.
This great country that we have all come to know and love is changing face. It is moving in a direction that is going to get worse before is gets better. Seeing as we live in such a place that allows you to have all the freedom you need to choose a career that will not only be right for you but also creates a flow of money to give you some freedom. Not just in the way you live, but also what you eat and the car you drive not to mention what you do in your free time. There are so many jobs to choose from and now more than ever it is excruciatingly important that you pick the right one.
Because after all who wants to get stuck being a college professor.

A few steps in the right direction

Right, now as you're reading this our government is working on the fine details of the "bailout plan". In theory, this large sum of money and a bulk sum of jobs is supposed to jump start the economy similar to when you use jumper cables to get a car with a dead battery running. This may help our situation. If you've kept up somewhat with what my blog is about then you would know that we have been talking about how hard it is to choose a career right now when the economy is in such a shit hole. And, face the facts in five years there may not be such a demand for PE teachers as there once was.
On the bright side, there are steps that you can follow to make sure that you are going to have a career that is going to be worth staying around for. First, research on the internet, this is definetly the easiest way that you can see what kind of need there is for the job you want right now. For example, just enter " need for architects" and a couple articles will pop up maybe even a few graphs.
Second, once you have a good idea of the prospective need for your career in the making, find out a accurate estimate of what kind of income that job is going to bring for you per year, then see how its going to change with the recession. ( there are a few calculators on the internet that will help you to do this.).
Third, and most important, look at what you really want to do. Make sure that the carreer your going into is not just something that is just OK. There are millions of jobs out there and with a little time and effort, a bit of elbow grease, you will find something that will not just make you happy. It will also be able to provide a good income for you, for years to come.

The Other Side of The Tracks

Fact of the matter is that we are heading straight for a recession. And, if truth be told we are already in one. More people have lost their jobs in the last few months, than in previous years. It is getting bad. Even our president, has said that the horizon is not a bright one. It is really going to be important to choose a career that is stable and had good security. There is just no point in wasting your time and money in college if right when you graduate the economy is in a superfluous shit hole. Honestly, I would most likely be a graphic designer, but there might not be a very wide market for that career. So try hard, very hard, and think of something that will be able to provide for you long after we are in financial helter-skelter.
