My
2002 Accomplishments
This year I was able
to accomplish some of my goals.
I
went back to school in May for my GED and I was blessed with two
great teachers, Mr. Krevisky and Mr. Chiapa, who are dedicated
to their work. They taught me everything I needed to know in
order to pass the test. By October I was ready to take the test.
In November I got my High School Equivalency Diploma. That was
one of the best days of my life! All that hard work paid off.
I accomplished one of my goals.
Then after the GED
class I went to a school, which I learned a little bit about computers.
I learned the basics of Word, Excel and I did a slideshow in PowerPoint.
It was a good experience.
Now I have been granted
the opportunity to be in the computer class, which is my biggest
goal. Plus, I have been blessed with another dedicated teacher.
After
completing this computer class I will be able to get my dream
job and accomplish many more things to come.
Ms. Brooks has helped
me out a lot and I thank her very much for all she has done.
Coming to NBCCOC was the best thing that ever happened to me.
This is the best school I ever attended.
Thank
you to everyone at NBCCOC for being so dedicated to helping people
like me!

Tips
For The Holiday
Shopper
Make
a list – who are you buying gifts for this year?
Make
a plan – Ask yourself, “How much money can I spend?”
Try
bargain hunting – look at all the store sales circulars on Sunday
for the items you want to buy. Compare prices before shopping.
Be
careful! Keep your money in your pants pocket not in a jacket pocket
or purse. Sad to say, but this holiday time of the year is pocket-picking
time. So watch your back.
