Why I chose Trade School and not College

The subjects that I enjoy most are Advisory English. In Advisory we presented a try fold board of our schools for when we graduate. One of my schools was New York Institute of Technology. I am more focused on Trade Schools with technology. This is what I find interesting.

• The subject I most enjoy reading about is how the economy has gotten better because I learn about this in World Economics C Block

• My favorite hobby or pastime is taking naps when coming home from school because sometimes when I come home from school, I am sort of exhausted

• If I won the lottery, I would use the money to buy a speaker package so this way I can hear what needs to be said on the desktop

• The type of volunteer activity I prefer is setting up for events. I have gotten hours of community service. 

• My favorite school subject has always been Advisory in high school, because I have a favorite teacher

• If I ran the world, the first thing I would change would be making more natural resources for the environment.
