part 1 of essay

The community that I am associated with is my church community. My church is a all-around big families were as a group we support one another at hard times. Things that keep me going to church is the soulful choir song to wake me up in a typical early morning day. The thought of listening to my preacher preach giving me words of wisdom on a righteous way of living make life so much easier. The people at church all talk to one another from the Ushers to the board they give the youth another I to seeing life on the right and wrong way life can come by you. I mean church at first was a bit boring when I first started going to church. I used to hate getting up early in the morning going to church and right after church had to go to Sunday school missing the football games.  Also I really wasn’t a big fan of going to wens day bible study which really made it hard for me to get in the grove of the whole church hype. As I grow as a young adult I now know that the sooner is beater to have a relationship with god.

module 1

What I learned as a student in 1 module is being more consistent and letting myself be heard more. What I mean by being heard more is letting my teacher know I am here at year up with a dedication to learn and better myself. I have more or less been doing well in the program but it’s always good to turn it up a notch. The positives have been for me in module 1 is I finish my homework on time, I came to class on time and tried to  really hard retain information that has been given to me. My negatives are a big one it seem like is look more engaged in class what my peers have been telling me. When entering a internship it is very important to me engaged shows your boss you’re ready for that next step and here to learn. To me learning is a key asset to life without knowledge you live in the world of unknowing

Oakland

I am who I am because of the neighborhood I live in which is Oakland. Oakland to me is not a good society to live in now days, many gang violence such as were ever you go you could possibly end up dying at any moment. You have to be aware of your surroundings at all times to prevent yourself from being on somebody next t-shirt. In my time in living in Oakland I try to be better than my peers. Not following the hype of trying to impress a person because that can end up getting you into a lot of trouble. I am thankful to have a set of parents who cared for my well-being and made sure I was on a path of righteousness. Most kids now days don’t really have father figures or a mother at home to care for them. Living in Oakland also had its positives like coming from there you would learn how to be a survivor. In the society we live in today we need to be able to learn how to survive in the adult world. Also living in Oakland you learn how to talk and to be heard in the world.  Without those quality’s I can honestly say I would be a different person not knowing how the world would treat you as a person. Even now living in Oakland it’s pretty much the same as it was back in the day. As I get more and more leaning towards my career I promise to give back to my community so that I can provide a good spot for the children to look up to when all seems to be lost.  I have sister and try to show them that there is a way to make it in the hood.

Now days company's try to get over on people who is not aware of financial part of there life. people see something new and buys that car or phone without really reading the negatives of what exactly a person is getting there self into. Due to the fact people is lazy and don't care to read the book that is presented to the costumer businesses take complete advantage over that person to make there money. Me personally i understand what businesses do i would do the same because businesses get payed on sales not hourly. they could inform the people about the last section of the paper they are signing. I think the government should take the blame because its not fair to the people for not knowing the business.

Self evaluation

Well, let me start with my name Shawn Robinson. That alone says it all. I am a young adult with a drive to find that next step. I do not have any limitations. I am a people person, such that my persona demands respect. I am calm when facing difficult situations. I try not to let things bring me down, to lose my sense of coolness or whatever you would like to call it. Very outspoken, I rarely hold my tongue because I don't like to be misinterpreted.  I don't like it when a person does not get all my thoughts and it would be hard to take a look at what goes on inside my mind. I am an all-out enjoyable person. I try to make the ones around me better and consider me a team player. I was told that if you do not have a team you can never win the big stage, for example my hero Jordan had to be a team player and I just learned that from him. Team work is the key to being happy and the key to my heart.
