i am at a middle school on the border between milpitas/san jose, anyone want to help contribute to the future of our nation by being an example for our youth?

if you could give a quick like 5 minute speech thing about hard work and education and stuff, along with some info about how you got to where you're at, i'd appreciate it

 

Day(s)? Time(s)?

 

You drive a subie and are still in middle school?!?!?!?!

 

^^wondering the same thing!

 

I think you misunderstand.

 

LOL
Maybe he works at the middle school? ( I would hope he is not in middle school :joke

 

yup...he is 24.

 

I'd love to but I dont think my story would inspire much other than apathy.

 

same thing I said. went to art school for Video Game Programming and ended up working at a shop after getting tired of spending upwards of $8k every 3 months in tuition. And dont get me started on school loans....

 

Hey Mike, I might be up for it. When is it? Not sure if I can get the time off.

 

originally i was looking for a filler for next week, but now its getting a little interesting since there's more than 2 posts lol.
i'll talk to the AVID leader tomorrow and see if we can get something going before xmas break but after turkey break

thanks guize!
*hugs*

 

I was in AVID in HS... for a 2 years. But I dropped out cause of just being too busy with Scouts, Track and Field, and Video Production.

 

The first/last 2 times I visited my HS after the 1st year of college, my AP U.S. History teacher had me talk to her classes about what college is like. I guess she got stockholm syndrome after we gave her a nervous breakdown senior year.

 

college is like "****ing awesome"
