I was extremely skeptical when I heard about the The Color Career Counselor, powered by The Dewey Color System, an online test that predicts what careers are correct for people.
The way the test works is a website shows you swatches of colors and you pick your favorites and least

The last day of class. While I can’t stand having to go to class for over 3 hours, I do have to admit I’m going to miss it. Life will seem so boring after going through such a weird experience.
As I mentioned yesterday, the final prese

The final project for the course is a group persuasive speech.. That being so, we spent the entire day just working on our presentation. My group decided to appeal to the class to become organ donors, a fact that’s slightly ironic since

Not much happened today. We had to do quick, impromptu speeches based on a picture that we selected at random. My picture was of three people surfing naked. I’m sure it was some priceless piece of art that had a lot of meaning, but I did

Today was a big day in class. The major assignment for this course is a 5-to-7 minute informative speech. The speech could be about anything as long as it wasn’t persuasive. Obviously, we also had to include statistics, quotes, etc. There

One of the girls walked into class today with a huge cast on her hand. When we asked her about it, she casually told us she had been in a car accident the day before and lost a finger. WHAT?? First off, how do you casually just throw that

Our first test of the class. Let’s just say it was slightly harder than the quiz, with the definition of “harder” being it took more time because there were more questions. We had an hour to finish the test-I was done in 12 minutes. Eight

Felt sick and had to take the day off. Yep, only 12 days of class and I still couldn’t manage to be there for all of them. Missed a quiz and a paper too. Nothing an e-mail to Mrs. Ms. Smith won’t fix.
Fortunately, my new social circle fi
