Big Foot Tutorial!!!!

     Before I started the skunk ape tutorial, I did not know much about the library and its resources. It really opened my eyes to the new ways to do research and how to find things on my own. I already knew everything about plagiarism. I did not know about scholarly publications and popular periodicals. I understand the difference, I just did not know there was a name for them.The only thing I think I need to know about performing basic research is finding books in the library. So for that part, I will definitely need to ask the librarian. I will also try using the library catalog, research databases, and internet search engines. I already mentioned two things I did/ did not know. Two other things I did not know about was the information gap and how many resources that I could use. Two other things I did know were how to use google to find resources and how to cite my sources.

My Ambitions for Life

1. Finish school

2. Find a good job

3. Find the perfect man

4.Start a family

5.Travel

     The first thing I want to accomplish in my life, is to finish school. College is very important and it is the key to my success. Through school I will be able to get better jobs and better opportunities. I am not sure what I want to be right now but I know I want to be successful!
     
      After I finish school, I will find a job that matches my major. I am majoring in communications right now but I recently decided to change it. I'm not sure what I am changing it to but I have a few ideas I am exploring now. I am going to make sure I get a job that I love. Too many people wake up in the morning and never want to get out of bed because they hate their jobs. I am not going to let that happen to me.

      Next, I want to find the "man of my dreams". I don't believe anyone is perfect but if I love someone enough I will be able to except the things that are not so perfect about them.
      
      Then, I want to start a family. I don't think I will ever change my mind about having children unless I am not financial stable enough to afford them. I want a big family because in my house it is only me and my brother. When I was little, I always wished my parents would have more kids so I would have more brothers and sisters to play with.
     
      When I am married and I have children, I want to travel and see places besides the United States. I have been to Mexico and Puerto Rico but I want to see more of the world like Europe or Spain. I can not wait to explore the world with my family. I think it will be a great experience.
      
       Finally, after all of these things happen or even some I will consider my life a success. I do not see my "Big Five for Life" changing. I believe these will be my life long goals. I am not sure they will happen in this order though. As long as most of them happen, I will be happy!
