Your first assignment is a simple one! Introduce yourself to the class. If you have already made an introduction from a previous post add current updates to what is happening in your life and copy it onto this blog posting. To create your own post click on the blue comment link (there is a image of a pencil next to it) at the bottom of the page. I am excited to get to know you better and help you achieve your goals! Here is an example from a past student.
Hi, my name is Anonymous. I am 20 years old, about to turn 21 on March 19th. I have gone to many schools including Apple Valley High School, Lakeville South High School, Apple Valley ALC, DCALS and now, Rahncliff. I am 4 and half credits from my diploma. I should have my diploma by the end of this session and I am SO EXCITED. I’m looking forward to furthering my education. I’m planning on going to school for nursing. I hope to work as a psych nurse in a hospital, but I would also enjoy moving around and working in plenty of different areas as well. I currently work at Verizon Wireless in Shakopee and I have worked there for just under a year. I don’t hate it, but sales is DEFINITELY not where I plan on staying.

DeleteMy name is Jasmine Thomson, I am 17 years old and I attended Lakeville North Highschool for freshman year to the middle of junior year and switched to online school in which I failed at completely. I will be turning 18 on November 19th. I don't live with my parents anymore in which I moved out just this last April. I have a few hobbies but do always have time to do them, because I do work full time, and now also in the middle of getting my diploma. My hobbies are gymnastics, running, and playing with my baby kitten. She is about 3-4 weeks old and I still haven't named her yet. Which is pretty sad. I work at which wich actually right across the way. My goals are to get my diploma and go to college, but I just dont know what I want to go to college for quite yet.
ReplyDeleteMy name is Brandon. I work on a farm with my friend bailing hay. I work on my truck as much as I can. On most weekends I go fishing with friends. Fishing and hunting are my favorite sports. Planning on going to DCTC or WYO Tech for welding or auto body. In the summer I spend most of the time out of Minnesota and working on my grandparents farm.
ReplyDeleteI'm Shane, I'm 18 and was a senior at AVHS last year. I've been to ABE a few times before and I think the second fall course will be the last time I'm here! I'm about 8 or 9 credits away from getting my diploma and I can't wait to be done. I plan on going to Normandale's second semester come the beginning of 2015. Then next fall I'd like to go to Mankato or UND. I don't really know what I want to major in yet but I might want to do something in theatre/directing. As far as something about the law, I've TOTALLY never broken it ever in my life.

ReplyDeleteMy friend went to iowa tech and he loved it there. He said it was a good school.
Deleteglad to hear you are going back to school i hope it works out for you
DeleteSeems like several people dont know what they want to major in yet lol. I dont blame them though because its not easy being able to pick what you want to do for an occupation.
ReplyDeleteIt's not easy, and you can choose a career and realized after several year that wasn't what you expected to be, but the only way to fail is stop trying. Life always give you the chance to reinvent your destiny.

ReplyDeleteI am attending ABE to receive my High School Diploma. After i graduate, my plan is to attend a certification program or college to do Medical Transcription. There are many medical field jobs out there and I plan on finding one where I can work at home to spend more time with my kids. I am very thankful for this opportunity to earn my High School Diploma and look forward to meeting my fellow classmates.
Good for you for coming back to get your diploma! That is very admirable, and good luck in the future, i hope you get the job you want in the medical field.
DeleteHi,
ReplyDeleteMy name is Nadah, pronounced like netta. I came to ABE so that i can graduate early because high school really does suck. I am not 100% sure about what i want to do after high school, but i have been looking a lot into the Navy. I am currently a server at Red Lobster, I've been there for the past two years and I am hoping to serve/bartend through college. My dream is to major and get a successful career in forensic psychology, its the only thing I'm interested in.
Hi. I'm Carly. I am 17 years old, soon to be 18. I have always gone to Burnsville High school, until i missed my full junior year and district 191 didn't have the programs that 196 has to offer me to be able to catch up in time to walk and graduate with my class. I go to the applevalley ALC in the day time and am taking evening classes here to be able to finish quicker. I am expected to graduate on January 28th. I work full time. I work as a bank teller at TCF bank and just put my two week notice in as a manager at the Apple Valley papa murphys to be able to focus more on my education. I am counting down the days until school is over and until its finally summer again.

ReplyDeleteI studied fashion design, with has always been my passion and I worked as a footwear designer in Guante, (www.guante.cl). Right now I'm going through the fiancee visa process, waiting until have a permission to work and start to planning my life with my husband. We want to buy a land in Chile, and live by the coast, and construct small basics cabins and live of the rents, or, buy a land in the valley and have a vine to make our own brand of wine, and olive oil. For me, the coast cabins project sound more fun.
