Future Career!

I really want to be an architect, and so I am working to apply for acceptance into the competitive Architecture Master's Program here at USF. I would be graduating in 5.5 years, not the typical four.
I interned in high school with an architecture firm DDP, and so I called the head architect to ask him a few questions. His name is Philip Daimmwood.
He claims that the job outlook is positive for architecture students, because there will be a slight increase in jobs.
After receiving a masters degree, I would need to intern at an architecture firm for a while, and then apply for a licence in the state I would wish to be practicing in. Most states require their own specific licence.
Suggestions from him include becoming involved in research, studying green design, and completing an internship while still in college.

Ecological Foot Print

Start.

The ecologial foot print I received was foru earths before the start of the assignment. I found it fairly hard to decrease my footprint, becasue it mostly life style things that are hard to change like where I live, and where I can get my food from. I only dropped to 3.8 earths by the end of my session, because living in a dorm with a meal plan restrics my energy consumption, living type, and food I eat. However I made a strong effort to focus on recycling and and product packaging.

Loss of communication technology has its definite pros and cons. As a prominent member of the "comm-tel" generation, I find that I support the predominant amount of technology that we posses. But, I can understand the potential downfalls.
Personally, I listen to music on my walk to everywhere. Life seemed a little duller without Jack Johnson lightening the mood while I walked to Acquisition of Knowledge. (CON)
But, While in Class on Monday morning, it was a lot easier to pay attention in lecture class without texting to distract my attention. (PRO)
Homework would be nearly impossible without the use of Internet. For either contact or research, the use of the Internet is impossible to get around, especially in college courses. Some courses are solely based on the Internet. (CON)
Without being able to call or text anyone to see if they were available, it made the day a little difficult to make plans with people I do not live with. (CON)
Our lives have become shaped to not comprehend it without the use of technology.

End!

BOREDOM

I am starting my 24 hours of no technology...

Concern

My primary concern for the next four years is the environment. In the world, united States, and here at USF, there is not enough focus on recycling and other environmentally-friendly, green, methods. I propose that new buildings to be built follow strict codes to be truly considered green, and implementing a better recycling service in the university, especially within the dormitories. Knowledge of safer environmental practices would greatly benefit earth conscious students looking to help.

Ethics in Super Chick Sisters

Direction #1: The mistreatment of animals in preparation of food, as shown in Super Chick Sisters, causes activism and vegitarianism.

Direction #2: Animals in preparation for food are supposed to be held to some standard, but when these standards and animal rights are not met, horrible health problems can occur to the animals, which can be transferred to the people ingesting the animal products.

Direction #3: Animal Rights activists fight for the protection and treatment of animals while being raised and cltivated for food products; the mistreatment of teh animals leads to law suits, food recalls, and protests.
