China?

So today my step-dad got back from a week long business trip in china! Apparently it was really cool to see how things are so much different over there. For all of you who may not know, China is a communist nation and their culture differs greatly from the culture here. One of the mist noticeable changes was that they leave all the bones in everything they eat. They cut up meat, bone and all, and serve it to you with a side plate so you can have a place to spit the bones out... kinda gross if you ask me but whatever, they do what they want!

Aside from being very different, China is home to some of the high class learning institutions! My step-dad used to teach English in Japan and visited China frequently. I think it would be so cool to travel the world and see all of these amazing places and experience all of the different cultures of the world.

That might be another reason why i want to get it to sales. Some of the salesmen for bigger corporations get to travel all around the world to trade and sell with other big industries. That would be my ultimate goal! I mean sure you have to start small but if I'm dedicated, and maybe a little lucky, i can work my way up there!

Until next time, Stay gold.

College trip?

Just recently, my mom had me sign up for the so-cal college trip. For everyone who doesn't know what that is, the so-cal college trip is a weekend trip for sophomores and juniors to get some tours of colleges by students to see if they want to go there. I have herd it is a ton of fun so I'm pretty excited to go see what they have to offer.

       P.S. If you go to Westmont please sign up... we need like 30 people to go and it will be a lot of fun!!!

Anyways back on subject. I feel like a lot of my friends have a good idea of what they want to do and its kind of scaring me. please tell me I'm not the only one who has NO IDEA what they wanna do. i mean sure the title of my blog is "salesmen of the future" but that was what I thought I wanted to do a few months ago. Who knows what I want to do tomorrow.

My class signed up for an account on this web sight called Naviance and it made me do a personality test. That was one of the most misleading test i have ever taken...  All of the questions were either black or white. were you kind and caring or were you organized and focused on the bigger picture. i feel like I'm both but according to this test I'm suppose to be some factual business man who probably works in a cubical every day of his life. That is NOT what I wanna do i know that for sure. But i guess that's where you have to start. Realize what you don't want to do and maybe it will be easier when choosing what I actually do want to do.

College

So lately my parents are really stressing me out about what college I want to go to and what job I want to get and all that jazz. They ask me almost every day, "what college do you want to visit next" and its mind blowing when you realize how many different things you can do with your life. I still think I want to be an engineering salesmen but again this might change very soon or I could purse this for a lifetime. Who knows? Defiantly not me. The time that everyone says I have is slowly dwindling away but ill find my way eventually.

The Future

My future is defiantly not set and stone. I honestly have no real idea of what I want to do when i grow up. My aunt works as a big corporate sales person to sell insurance to different companies. She has caught my attention because she gets to do some of the things I have dreamed of doing. She gets to travel around the world and interact with different cultures on a week to week basis. I want to do something that involves interaction with people. I would never want to work at some cubical for the rest of my life. I want to be active and be a people's person. The future is always changing and I guess I am the only one who can change mine.
