A Time Capsule
I’ve been lurking across several fandoms spanning a decade now, since my days of reading “Bones” fanfics on fanfiction.net. Before any inkling of Ao3’s existence. Maybe longer, my memory is murky at times.
I’ve never made a splash in any fandom, so to speak. I’ve always been content to stand shrouded in anonymity, residing on the edges of fandom, never an active participant. Perfectly at peace to never have a voice. Never brave enough to want to be heard. It has only been in the last few years that I discovered Tumblr and felt comfortable enough in taking advantage of its anon feature to interact mostly with The 100/Bellarke crowd, “conversing” with one user in particular. In the instances I chose to speak, there was safety in knowing my words never had an identity attached. A safety that lent itself to sending anon asks a fairly common activity until I wrote one recently sharing a remnant of my “The 100” viewing experience. The warm response from the users who read it left me smiling for the rest of the day. Their reply took a direction I didn’t expect. They encouraged me to take credit for my words under my username, which of course, I didn’t have, not being a Tumblr user.
I was flattered by the response, bolstering me to continue the line of conversation with another ask and was met with reiterated sentiments.
In the wise words of one of those awesome people,
“I was the ultimate lurker for a long, long time. I had a Tumblr account for four years before I ever made a single post, and even then I had to be talked into it. And you know what? When I finally starting “talking,” it was so freeing! Even if no one else was listening, even if I was speaking into the void, I was no longer dependent on anyone else to share my thoughts and opinions. I could do that myself.”
I took the compliment but waived the advice. Tumblr is made of communities built upon sharing and I have always been unto myself an island. It goes against my shy, introverted nature to take part in a community. I have no business pretending I have a place there. None at all.
And yet, despite my misgivings, the idea wouldn’t leave me as I believed it would. I started to genuinely ponder the merits of creating a blog.
There are strong reasons to support the affirmative.
First, the utilitarian benefits. In the absence of a blog, I turned to alternative methods of archiving appealing posts. If by some miracle, the item count of my browser reading list hasn’t yet ascended to the thousands mark, it most assuredly rests in the hundreds. My camera roll queue has indubitably reached the thousands count, currently sitting pretty at 3,300. I shudder to think of the sheer number of my bookmarks. One hundred and eighty notes on my phone. The final frontier has been broken, at last, habitually inundating my laptop with screenshots. Long has it been overdue to clean house.
Second, I find writing to be a herculean undertaking I enjoy in the moments it doesn’t drive me to the brink. A slow-going process, but when I’m able to appreciate the fruits of my labor, marvel at the polished product, I often feel quite proud. Writing is a skill I’ve lost touch with over years of disuse but found incrementally returning while expressing my opinions via Tumblr asks. Like any skill, it can be honed with time and practice. Transferring my streams of consciousness onto written medium challenges me to think critically, ask myself if my POV genuinely holds true or falls apart, requiring further reflection. If nothing else, it’s a good way to process thoughts and emotions. I find it easier than and therefore preferable to oral communication. I am a perpetual editor, always amending my statements which can’t really be done as effectively in speech.
Third, if there was ever a time to join the Tumblr fandom I’ve found a home in for the last three years, why not in time for the show’s last ride? The night I signed up for Tumblr coincided the first day of “The 100” cast and crew filming their 100th and poetically final episode. Around the same space of time, we got a release date and the nostalgic goodbyes of a few cast members rolled in. I know when Bellarke crosses the last threshold, I’d want it plastered all over my dash and I’d be able to make it happen.
But where there are pros, the cons inevitably follow.
Do I really need a further distraction from my responsibilities, spending additional hours and expending more energy I should not spare online? The too easy potential for more hours behind a screen when prone to headaches and horrid habits of not regulating my eating and sleeping schedules? The answer is a clear and resounding “No.” Would maintaining a blog be harmful to my mental and emotional health? Remaining anonymous has historically done a fine job of insulating me from general rebuke, which has mitigated the risk of reproach at least. No corner of the internet can be designated as a safe space. I knew I would in all likelihood have to work diligently to curate and be responsible for my experience, leading me to doubt how the effort could possibly be worth it. How could it be worth feeling exposed, self-conscious? Constantly second-guessing myself, debating whether or not my thoughts are best kept within the privacy of my mind to avoid stepping on anyone’s toes? Combating the periodic skepticism that my thoughts possess value worth writing?
There was always the lingering possibility I was overthinking the decision to my detriment, as is my norm. After all, it seemed silly and dramatic to regard one obscure little blog in a sea of hundreds of millions of social media users as momentous. But I know myself better than that. It is a really fucking big deal for me.
I vacillated between both sides of the argument for days before deciding not to follow through with the venture.
And then one night, a single stray observation ran through my mind. One observation became another, became another and before I knew it, I had formed the grounds for an entire meta post. It didn’t end there. More ideas filtered through. I expanded on those ideas. More traction gained. Another meta formed. More jumping off previous points. Before long, I had mentally written the foundations for four metas. And I was so excited and proud of forming these connections to this puzzle without even trying that I wanted to share it. I sat down to write them in my trusty Notes, outlining, trying to jot the main points down before they fizzled away from memory. I saw how long-winded these spiels had gotten sans the full writeup, subsequently rationalizing…well, not blowing up someone’s inbox is just good manners, isn’t it? And terribly inefficient to boot. More to the point, it seemed a disservice to myself to censor my rumination to fit the small confines of a Tumblr ask box.
The part of me that wanted to push forward envisioned what the future of my blogging efforts may look like. That part knows that this blog is for me and only me. What makes me laugh, what makes me cry. Smile. Rage. Flail. Think. Whatever the hell I want. I get to say what I want, however, I want. It’s incredibly nerve-wracking. It’s also exciting, thrilling, and yes, freeing. The notion of carving out a tiny space for me to fill to the endless brim with whatever brings me joy makes me…really damn happy. It’s not an easy feat to accept and harder to retain. I should be ok, so long as I never forget that I get to be in control of what happens here. It’s within my right to block anyone I don’t want to engage or associate with. It’s my full right to not care what anyone else has to say if I don’t want to. Block out anything negative I don’t want to endure with only a few clicks. If I decide I want to walk away, permanently or otherwise, for any reason, it’s within my right to do that too. It’s comforting.
There was a time when I “knew” I would never sign up for an Ao3 account until one of my favorite authors withdrew the majority of her stories from public consumption. I “knew” I was never going to post commentary until I did. I “knew” my username would never be seen by anyone aside from me, never to be affiliated with my commentary until it was.
I did. Each and every time I thought I would never, I did. I broke my own barriers with patience and some courage. Maybe the most intimidating aspect of something new is simply the beginning. I said earlier that I’ve been an island for nearly as long as I can remember. It’s still true, I don’t expect overnight results. It’s probably going to be true for a long time. Perhaps forever. But maybe it’s all the more reason why I should take this step toward peeking out of my self-imposed shell. Do what scares you, or whatever it is they say.
I wish I could say it was enough to reverse my earlier verdict.
Nope, I had to agonize some more.
What can I say? Fear is a damn powerful inhibitor.
Lo and behold, as if the universe took pity on me, I got the chance to communicate directly with the same awesome lady whom I quoted above and she kindly offered some more merciful wisdom to a truly maddeningly indecisive individual:
“When you create a blog, you are STILL anonymous. You have a username, yes, but it doesn’t lead back to you unless you want it to. You still have your personal privacy. Tumblr isn’t Facebook. If you want to disclose personal information, you can, but you certainly don’t have to.
And second, your blog is for you, not for anyone else. It’s for you to express your own opinions. Or create gifs or other visuals. Or just repost what other people create. You can be on every day, or just once a week. It’s also a great way to save stuff you might want to look at again. And then… and then… when brilliance suddenly hits you, you have somewhere to let it hang out! 😁”
It was much I had already considered, but it helped immeasurably to have my reasoning reaffirmed from an external source I respect. I logged into Tumblr for the first time the very same night.
After much deliberation, an uncharacteristic burst of bravery and a grueling four hours I owe to technological ineptitude, I have, tentatively and cautiously, opted to give this Tumblr thing a go.
With luck, a day will never arrive when I dust this preamble off for a much-needed pep talk. Instead, it is my hope that one day, this memo-to-me will stand as proof that I don’t always need to be afraid of the unknown. Not all endeavors have to be as frightening as they may appear. And if I can apply this attitude to all else suppressing my personal growth, I might just be peachy someday.
Bearing this in mind…
…here we go.

Education & Democracy
Consider a ship. The ship is to undertake a journey - it has to sail through several oceans to reach a land far away. On its way, it will encounter difficult waters, storms even - it is guaranteed to be a difficult journey. Such a voyage requires a skilled captain. In order to determine who should command this ship, a committee of people is going to be established. These people will decide which person is best equipped for this task.
You are the first member of this committee, and you are assigned with the task of recruiting other people for this committee. Note that your task right now is not to choose the captain, but to simply assemble a group of people who will make that decision. Contemplate for a moment - on what basis should this committee be chosen?
The objective of this committee is to choose the best candidate for captain. To do this, we begin by defining a criteria to judge whether a person is a good fit for captain or not. There are, broadly speaking, two categories of concern here.
The first one is technical: what route does the captain plan to take, how does she plan on dealing with storms, etc. The other is not technical: the voyage is not simply about going from point A to point B, it is to ensure that the people onboard are safe and that there is peace and harmony on the ship. For this, we question: is the captain prudent? Is she wise and careful? Is she aggressive? Is she kind?
As average people, it is not possible for us to be experts in each technical aspect - however, in order to judge whether the captain is qualified, it is necessary for at least some of us to possess basic knowledge regarding the technical aspects of sailing.
Now that we’ve established the qualities that we seek in a captain, we can determine the qualities that our committee members must possess.
To judge whether someone has a certain quality, we must possess an understanding of that quality itself. We must understand the benefits of such a quality, and if we seek our captain to have this quality, it must be a good quality, and if it is a good quality, we must ourselves wish to have it. Hence, the people who select the captain must possess the same qualities that they seek in the captain. Our task then boils down to looking for people who possess a subset of the qualities that we wish for the captain to have. Note that if they possess all the qualities that the captain should have, then perhaps they should be captain themselves. Therefore, we restrict our search to people who are strictly less qualified than required for captaincy - they possess certain but not all qualities that are required to become captain.
The people who select the captain, therefore, must be a partial reflection of the captain: the committee must be comprised of people who possess the basics of the technical know-how in order to judge whether the applicant is qualified or not, and also, the values required to judge whether the applicant is the right person to lead and manage the voyage in its non-technical aspects.

The idea of democracy emerged in ancient Greece. The word comes from ‘demos’ - common people, and ‘kratos’ - strength. Democracy is a Greek concept, and interestingly, one of the strongest criticisms against democracy comes from the founding father of Greek philosophy, Socrates. The story above is simply an extension of the argument that Socrates offered - the ship is the society, the captain is the elected government and the committee of people are the voters.
In a democracy by birthright, each citizen that has attained 18 years of age is allowed to vote. That is to say, each citizen’s opinion is given equal weight in the democratic process. This is equivalent to allowing all the sailors on the boat to be a part of the committee that selects the captain - it is, naturally, ‘equal’, but logically, it guarantees an inefficiency in the outcome of the democratic process - it accounts for the opinion of those who do not possess the skills necessary to make an informed decision. In a highly literate society, this would be a small cost to bear - as long as the majority is capable of critical thinking, the outcome would be efficient, along with the positive side effect of creating a sense of equality amongst the citizens. However, we are not living in a highly ‘literate’ society. Statistically higher literacy rates have failed to account for the limitations of the education.
Education all over the world has been moving further and further away from humanities, closer to natural sciences. Particularly in this part of the world, the education system involves very little amount of compulsory education in philosophy or political science. As jobs in these fields are not economically rewarding, students too lack the incentives to take up these fields or study them. However, what this has created is a society of highly educated illiterates - we understand trigonometry but we do not understand how to reason outside the realm of numbers. Engineering is held in high regard, but political literacy, an education in reasoning, in morality and ethics, it is often dismissed as ‘unnecessary’ for the simple fact that these do not lend themselves very easily to jobs that the capitalist society can absorb. By the virtue of understanding calculus or the laws of motion, one is not naturally equipped to make better decisions. The tools necessary to calculate the trajectory of objects are not the same tools that can be used to differentiate between right and wrong, good and bad - the progress of society has been lopsided.
* * *
“Government of the people, by the people, for the people” - nearly every introduction to the idea of democracy is built around this quote by Abraham Lincoln. It successfully highlights the essence of a democratic institution: people. The people are essentially the engine of a democracy. They participate in the process by adopting different roles: as citizens, journalists, civil servants, political leaders, etc. A democracy works only when all of these perform their functions effectively. Essentially, people are the ground upon which the 4 pillars of a democracy stand.
Our goal, then, becomes to ensure that this ground is firm, that it is fertile, which is to say, to ensure that people are not just well trained but well educated. This is an uncommon belief, in the sense that nobody would rationally disagree with this statement but there are not many people who understand its implications as well as what it demands from us as human beings - it demands a process of constant education - of learning, unlearning and relearning.
The reluctance to devote time and energy to human sciences is a product of several things. The present job market is one of those factors - but then, we don’t do everything just for the sake of work. There is another factor, one that discourages people from moving beyond newspapers and TV and social media - it is the subjectivity.
Society and its functioning does not have a basis in science, at least not in the same sense as the science of the physical world - there are no exact rules that dictate how society works, or how society should work. There are different schools of thought, and each of these lead us on different paths - perhaps, then, there is no objective measure to navigate this space, to understand this world. This belief is only amplified by the environment - the primary source for information in these matters is the news channels, the newspapers. Information has increased, sensationalism has increased, and without being familiar with the fundamentals the govern the debate, we watch news anchors spit over each other, fact after fact, accusation after accusation. With no simple way to understand and to catch up, it seems, the act of being an informed citizen demands far too much these days - how can we be expected to follow the chain of thought and to verify the information being thrown at us, when all of it is happening so quickly? Most people resort to making their own judgements about this information, then, and here too, our judgement is affected by the limits of our knowledge - without a real ‘education’, not just training, but education, our judgement is simply a byproduct of our sentiments - perhaps, this news channel is reliable, or this anchor seems to make sense, or in the past, he has been correct, or his stance is popular. We employ shortcuts in thinking - heuristics - to arrive at what seems to be an approximately correct answer. However, it is far from correct.
Human sciences are subjective, there is no doubt to this - but how subjective? There is no rule, no method that works in every situation - but are there rules that work well in most situations? Is there a way of thinking that can guide us, generally at least, in processing information and understanding society? This is exactly the purpose behind studying history, political science, economics and philosophy. An education in these subjects is essential in developing an understanding of society and participating efficiently in it. People dismiss the study of history - it is true, I gain nothing from learning the exact date that Hitler came to power. However, that is not the true objective of studying history - it is to understand the world that existed before us, so that we can understand how we got here. It is to learn from the mistakes of the past, so that we are not doomed to repeat it. Philosophy, perhaps, receives the strongest criticism - outside academic spaces, it is considered to be a form of intellectual masturbation, with no meaning to be derived from it. Logic is a branch of philosophy that enables us to understand how to reason for ourselves, to determine the validity of a belief, an idea. It is through philosophy that we study ethics, that we learn about morality, the differentiation between right and wrong, good and bad - terms that we encounter every day in our lives, not only in the broader political domain but the personal one too. Yet, most of us receive nearly no formal education in philosophy, and our education in history is limited to learning dates and listing out, in a formulaic manner, the cause and effect of historical events - 8 points for 4 marks, 10 points for 5 marks. To compensate for the lack of critical thinking, some schools have introduced sessions for moral values - to teach kids what is right and what is wrong. Still, the vision is missing - society continues to evolve - the challenges our parents faced are radically different from the ones we face today. It is not enough to teach them what is right and what is wrong - what is necessary is to introduce them to a method through which they can determine this for themselves, for the countless challenges that they will face.
Democracy is flawed because its foundation is flawed: most people are not ‘educated’ in the true sense of being educated - they are highly trained to perform specific jobs. They work as engineers, doctors, businessmen, scientists, designers. The difference between training and education is subtle - but it counts, in every way. Our goal then, to be better people, to be better citizens, involves an education that does not end. It is a pursuit without a fixed answer, and as long as the answer keeps changing, we must keep learning.

Does Psychology Bring Happiness?
Does psychology bring me happiness? No, it doesn’t. While most other people try to buy their happiness, devote their lives to external (mystical) purposes or get involved in communities, or whatever else they do to achieve their sense of happiness, psychology can’t be taken away from me because it's in my head. This makes it stable.
Material possessions can be either lost or stolen-They therefore require security/protection (which causes both stress and additional costs-Unnecessary costs because security doesn't solve problems and protection is only ever necessary when a threat exists). External purposes can be proven false or to not exist, causing it to require willful ignorance and cognitive dissonance; Communities can easily shun people for whatever reason, because they’re irrational. Therefore, none of these are stable sources of happiness.
So, psychology is untouchable, yet, it doesn’t provide me happiness? That’s only because there are problems that can’t be solved because other people are refusing to make necessary social and economic changes, and no matter how loud I yell, or how many times I repeat myself-They still won’t budge. They will only resort to tactics or various fallacies in defense of their positions. I know to question people, but: 1. I'm the only one who does, and 2. They will only make excuses for themselves and walk away.
I am obligated to deal with problems caused by these people; Many don't even see them as problems.
What is happiness? There are a few components that I think happiness depends on: 1. Knowing who you are and being happy with it. This is the only possible happiness because only the person can lose self-esteem. This world being as hateful as it is, the skill to just either question or ignore insults [change if the insult is actually (unintentionally) accurate], is the security. 2. Having abundant access to life’s needs and indulging in the natural aspects of our being (relationships, education, experience, etc.).
Relationships are a grey area, for psychological reasons: Many adults are forced to either end a relationship or suffer it, because the partner is mentally ill. This means happiness can't exist within a relationship for many, because they're unable to find somebody who is rational; Somebody who is rational not under influence (their actual self). This doesn't mean relationships are not part of the equation of happiness, it only means human psychology prevents many from finding a healthy one.
If true love does exist, many people are indoctrinated, and are therefore not their true self; Which means such people would actually be somebody’s “soul mate”, but the indoctrination prevents such a relationship from either happening, or causes the relationship to break up.
I've heard that some people refuse to end the relationship for some reason, because their spouse is mentally ill and they either don’t want to be single or they got married and have kids. These people are only enabling their spouse, therefore, ending the relationship becomes their responsibility for this reason. If these people got married, well, the price they end up paying is the price for their error of getting married.
This world restricts and limits in the manner that we are all obligated to earn life’s needs. You’re criminal if you take without paying, you can only have what you can afford and you can’t have anything without money, or at least having worked for it. Relationships are no different, they can still exist, but, they aren't much fun without an income.
While psychology is how and why people think and behave, skilled people can help others achieve mental stability, if the problem is only an error in thinking. Psychology can’t be the source of happiness if they aren’t the ones who caused a particular problem and also can’t correct or change something to solve it-If they’re forced to deal with those problems while having no control over things.
Psychology needs to be in effect on a global scale, for it to enable and maintain a state of mental well being. It’s not about anybody in particular, but everybody. Jobs are the problem that I’m facing, something that holds me back from fully experiencing life without having one, the same goes with most other people. Ironically, having a job is also what holds most of us back from fully experiencing life. Jobs are therefore, a paradox.
To have a job is to sacrifice that percentage of the day, which can't be spent doing other things we want to do. To not have one, means to not have the money to do anything. This is the paradox.
I see employment as the problem, but most others don't, so, they think I have the problem and I'm the one who needs to change. Many others will complain, but, that's just a part of life to them.
In this world, with the social backwardness, which causes violence, hate, corruption, etc. a world of order, not balance, I need psychology for protection against all negatives-Those who are inept and seek to bring others down with them, or simply feel sorry for themselves but don’t seek self improvement. People who will only perpetuate the social decline, due to psychological weakness. Even positives-Those who are unrealistically optimistic about their own lives and future, while self-projecting their own views onto others.
These people preach their false contentment onto others. Completely and irresponsibly disregarding any issue(s) others are facing, telling them to cheer up, be happy and don’t worry, simply because they are happy. Or at least try to convince themselves and think they are. This world is not the way it is because people communicate and solve problems.
What I mean by “psychology against all negatives” is, I need to question everything and everybody who tries to bring me down or convince me to adhere to their antisocial and fascist worldview. I also need to understand why people have the mentalities they do. Many will give their side of the story about a problem in their lives, not realizing whomever they’re confiding in, doesn’t have everybody else’s side, so, they can’t know what’s actually going on-Many people are dishonest or are simply wrong.
I agree that worrying is useless because it doesn’t solve problems. However, I can look past that because other people cause many problems and believe in many falsehoods (jobs, the legal system, etc.) which everybody else is obligated to comply with and conform to, while nobody solves problems. They instead delegate such responsibilities onto other people and higher causes.
“It wasn’t meant to be”:
This is nonsense. If any opportunities are lost or relationships don't happen, it's because some obstacle prevented them. No greater cause is responsible, only conditions that we've created against ourselves and others, like jobs.
Given that the economy actually causes a strong interference with everybody’s life (I can’t say it dictates our life because people are able to interact), it does hold a lot back from people. People are denied relationships and opportunities because of financial complications, so, to tell anybody “it wasn’t meant to be.” when something either doesn’t happen or fails, is nonsense. The purpose of the economy is to produce for our own survival, not social management. The worship of money is a neurosis because it's purpose is only to purchase, it's never supposed to be valued over life.
Again, given that relationships are essentially maintained by money, maybe I don’t want one, maybe I'm wrong to want one (in economic terms, which is what relationships are actually based on). If I do ever meet somebody, great. If I never do, so be it. I was born into this monetary economy with no options [other than to starve (which others would fallaciously call an option) if I don’t want to work for a living], I can’t change it either, which means it’s a problem I didn’t cause, but, I also can’t solve.
I say that's fallacious because if nobody would ever choose to starve, they're only calling it an option to defend money/capitalism against others who challenge it.
Yes, relationships often end, and usually for the stupidest of reasons. Most relationships are marriages, which makes them difficult to end because certain third parties (divorce lawyers) have their hand in it. This unnecessarily adds hardship to the break-up process, which also intensifies the emotional aspect of it. Does this mean relationships are unstable? Not really. If adults were mature and responsible, they would discuss matters and be able to decide whether or not to end it, which would then be on good terms, if they do end it.
Confusing pleasure with happiness
I’ve already explained that material possessions are unstable because they can be either lost or stolen, they are also unstable because people tend to get bored with them, the pleasure isn’t always lifelong. That’s also it though, pleasure isn’t happiness, it’s sensual gratification. Happiness is mental well-being. Sex is the most pleasurable human experience known to us, and it’s completely natural. Sex isn’t happiness though, because that would mean people can never stop making love. The physical touch is obviously also pleasurable, not just the orgasm, but sex is only a factor, in the equation of a relationship. Relationships alone aren’t even a form of happiness, it’s only a factor of it.
The big picture:
I would say happiness consists of the true self, people who think for themselves because they agree with everything they do, for their own reasons and not what others have convinced them of. Possessing the critical thinking skills to debunk false information and bad opinions down. People who live how they want to, not try to fit in. Those who a psychologically strong enough to ignore peer pressure.
This doesn’t mean people are bad if they’re unable to. Many have the misfortunes of an insufficient upbringing (severe in many cases), which means their environment decides their fate. Many don’t have a chance, and they end up in the point of no return. Meaning, they’re mentally beyond any reasoning, so, it’s best to just wait until they’re gone.
This occurs because those who claim to be “skeptical freethinkers”, are anything but. Everybody who disagrees with anybody else-Who resorts to name calling, insults, ridicule and hate when those with bad ideologies ignore any kind of facts, are no better. Everybody should be questioning them instead. The solution really is the problem underneath.
I think many people are living the wrong idea of happiness-They've merely accepted the way the world is (the way things are), and are erroneously calling that happiness. It isn't so, because they're only accepting what little they have as they're being denied the rest in life.

Regardless of major, there are numerous benefits associated with earning any college degree. Some of the most prominent reasons to pursue a degree include making more money, expanding your knowledge base, obtaining better career opportunities, and achieving job security.
Many people opt to earn a degree because they want to earn more money.

According to PayScale, bachelor’s degree graduates earn an average yearly salary of around $63,800, while master’s degree graduates make an average of $76,000 per year. This is significantly higher than the average $15 per hour that high school diploma recipients and certificate-holders make. In 2019, the Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS) reported that full-time workers aged 25 and older who lacked degrees had median weekly earnings of $749, while workers with bachelor’s degrees had median weekly earnings of $1,281.
Degree graduates also enjoy better career opportunities. Colleges and universities design their curriculums, as well as all on-campus regulations and activities, to enhance student development. Regardless of major, anyone attending an institution is likely to attain and hone a wide range of skills that can be utilized in various fields. Employees who possess degrees are also commonly considered more valuable in the workplace, effectively increasing job security.
While many benefits relate to gaining employment after graduation, many others are more relevant in personal aspects of life. Other benefits include strong career outlook, decent financial compensation, and easily transferrable skills that create competitive candidates in the job market. In fact, there are possibly as many, if not more, personal reasons to attend college. Students often benefit from networking with peers, taking on leadership positions, experiencing alternative perspectives, developing new personal philosophies, and traveling through campus activities and study-abroad programs. Additionally, it is common to establish significant and lasting relationships with other students, staff, and faculty members while attending college.
What Makes a College Degree Easy?
Finding an easy college degree can be quite simple, although the results of any study on the matter would, by nature, be subjective. Something that seems easy to you may not be so simple for another person. This is why it is necessary to research options thoroughly before deciding to enroll in a program.
Consider using the following information to find the best solution for you:
Graduate GPA Data Find out which degrees produce graduates with the highest grade point averages (GPAs). This means that the majority of students enrolled in the program achieve high marks, which can indicate that the curriculum is fairly easy to complete. Identifying majors in this way can help you narrow down your list of prospects.
Student Reviews Students from colleges and universities all over the world can leave feedback about their experiences online. Read through reviews to find out if any degree programs are known for being particularly easy. It’s not uncommon for certain departments to gain a reputation for difficult or ease over time. You can also post in forums to inquire about which options may suit your needs best.
Course Requirements It may also prove helpful to examine curriculum listings and course descriptions prior to selecting a degree program. Most colleges and universities provide detailed information on their websites, making it easy to spot whether or not difficult classes may be required for graduation. Keep your personal skills and preferences in mind and avoid majors that necessitate taking courses you know you will struggle with, such as higher mathematics.
What to Consider When Choosing a Degree
There are several factors you should consider when looking for a degree program. Every college and university is unique. By comparing and contrasting important features, you can more easily determine which institution suits your needs best. Some of the most significant aspects include prospective career opportunities, salary projections, job outlooks, and possible work environments. You can also pull inspiration from your own natural talents, personal passions, and subjects of greatest interest. Again, you should consider avoiding subjects you are likely to have the most trouble with.
Ultimately, one of the most significant factors to consider is how much effort you are willing to put into pursuing an education. Earning an associate degree typically requires two years, whereas bachelor’s degrees generally take four years and master’s degrees take an additional two years to complete. Your options will vary depending on your dedication to achieving your academic and career goals.
Easiest College Degree Programs
While the process of determining which college degrees are easiest is fairly subjective, it is possible to identify which majors are generally the most difficult. Science, technology, engineering, and math (STEM) graduates have some of the lowest GPAs. Humanities and social science majors, on the other hand, trend towards the highest GPAs among academic disciplines.
Based on this, some of the easiest college programs include:
Business / Management Degrees in business and business management tend to be very broad in nature, touching on a wide variety of related topics. They tend focus on the development of skills that are useful in numerous industries and can be transferred from one position to another. This option is particularly relevant for undecided students interested in exploring several different subject areas. Additionally, business and business management are ideal for outgoing people who enjoy interacting with others. Note that some math classes may be required.
Communication / Media / Journalism Degrees in communication, media, and journalism focus primarily on writing, thinking, and formulating ideas cohesively. As humanities majors, they do not require any additional STEM classes, making them the perfect solution for creative-minded individuals. Read-and-respond assignments are common, as are personal presentations and projects related to current events.
Criminal Justice Degrees in criminal justice also tend to lack any significant focus on STEM subjects. Instead, these majors introduce students to the history and current functionality of the nation’s legal system. There are numerous career opportunities within the field and many of the skills attained are easily transferrable to other jobs. Students rarely have to depend on memorization and they can gain significant experience from internships and on-the-job training.
Education Degrees in education focus on pedagogy (teaching methods), which means students only need to take STEM classes if they choose to teach one of those subjects. Excluding prospective science and math teachers, very little technical knowledge is needed to be successful in this field. Depending on the age group being taught, it’s possible the majority of knowledge needed will relate to subjects already learned previously.
History Degrees in history also lack the need for extensive STEM coursework. These majors tend to place more focus on learning about past events, both in the United States and around the rest of the world. Like communication and journalism, this field is more likely to require extensive reading and writing assignments with a focus on contextualizing the information. Additionally, students studying history may need good memorization and critical thinking skills.
Psychology Degrees in psychology may not be as easy as some of the others listed here. This is largely due to the fact that students will likely need to complete some higher-level math courses. Additionally, a significant amount of material must be memorized in order to pass examinations, graduate, and the fact that you will need a master’s degree to become licensed to practice. The skills learned in this major can be easily applied to almost any industry, however, making this option extremely viable for students who have not identified specific career goals yet, even if they only plan to earn a bachelor’s.
Social Sciences / Sociology Degrees in social sciences and sociology are similar, requiring some math classes that may be considered too boring or hard for some students. Like psychology majors, these programs tend to be a middle-of-the-road option in terms of difficulty. Individuals who enjoy critical thinking, however, as well as comparing and contrasting information, are likely to do well in this field.
Easy Majors for Students with Specific Talents
It’s also important to realize that some majors will seem easy for certain people if they possess a particular talent or long-standing interest in them. Choosing a degree base on these factors is, of course, completely subjective. Consider your skills and passions carefully before deciding which program suits your academic and career aspirations best. You can start this process by thinking about which subject areas you were most proficient in during high school and making a list of all your extracurricular activities. It may also prove beneficial to speak with some of your past teachers and/or the school guidance counselor for assistance in pinpointing which areas suit you best.
Accounting / Mathematics The subjects of accounting and mathematics simply make sense to some people. Individuals who are mathematically inclined probably did well in advanced geometry, trigonometry, and calculus classes during high school. They often enjoy working with numbers and are capable of identifying patterns in data.
Arts (Fine Arts) Talent in fine arts can come naturally or result from significant practice. Even natural talent must be honed, which means individuals interested in this subject tend to spend a lot of time working on creative projects. They are likely to excel in arts-related classes during high school and may gravitate towards fine arts clubs as well.

Biology majors are unique because they can lead to a number of great employment opportunities, from studying animals and engineering plants to decoding genomes and providing medical care. However, you should be aware before choosing this major that it often includes a inordinate amount of memorization.
Computer Science Computer science is not for everyone, but those who do major in this subject have some of the best career prospects available. Those with a love for mathematics, analytical thinking, and problem solving will thrive most in this field. These individuals tend to enjoy learning in general, but are particularly inclined to utilize various forms of technology.
English Students who did will in English and history classes during high school make good English majors in college. Programs tend to require a lot of reading and writing assignments, which means those who enroll should have a passion for both areas.

Exercise Science Exercise science programs explore how the body and mind function during exercise.

Students who do well in exercise science likely participate in and enjoy various sporting activities.

The Many Houses of Hermione
So I was thinking about it, and really, Hermione is a great representation of all four of the Hogwarts houses. She has so many sides to her personality, multiple ways of thinking about different things, and numerous sets of values when it comes to her morals and interests, and each seems to align with a particular house. Hermione showcases her many-sided personality, multiple ways of thinking, and different kinds of values in a different way in each book, and because of this, we can characterize each version of her into a Hogwarts house.
Harry Potter and the Philosopher’s Stone--Ravenclaw Hermione is such a know-it-all in this book. She isn’t afraid to tell a random boy in her class (Ron) that he is doing everything wrong when it comes to spell-casting (Wingardium Leviosa), she tells Harry and Ron off for making her break rules and risk expulsion and the end of her academic life (which is apparently worse than dying), and when she does decide to break the rules, it’s so that she can research Nicolas Flamel, lean all about him, and use that knowledge to solve a mystery. Even at the Golden Trio’s first meeting, all she does is brag about how many books she’s read and how much information she knows because of it. If the person who worships learning and knowledge and information and uses it to her (obnoxious) advantage isn’t the epitome of Ravenclaw, I don’t know what is.
Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets--Ravenclaw In this book, Hermione isn’t as much of a know-it-all, but her thirst for knowledge and logical closure prevails nevertheless, particularly as she researches how to make the Polyjuice Potion and uses her love of learning to solve the mystery of the Chamber of Secrets. She uses her detective skills to pick up on clues that help her to figure out why Harry is hearing voices in the walls and what the monster of the Chamber is, and she is completely prepared when it comes to things like ensuring Crabbe and Goyle are out of the way for Harry and Ron to change into and using mirrors to protect Muggle-Borns from the eyes of the Basilisk. Hermione even shows her need for justice with the Howler that Mrs. Weasley sends to Ron, for, whether friends or not, he (and Harry) need to be punished for breaking the rules. Hermione has the perfect balance of curiosity, preparation, and problem-solving skills, and as Ron so accurately puts it, her Ravenclaw-inspired thirst to be right and thoroughly accurate is “because that’s what Hermione does. When in doubt, go to the library.”
Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban--Slytherin This is the point where Hermione starts to show a different side of herself, and a highly stubborn and self-righteous one at that. When you think of third-year Hermione, what comes to mind--at least for me--are her fight with Ron about Crookshanks and how she walked out on Trelawney, and Hermione handles both of those things in very Slytherin ways. Crookshanks is Hermione’s beloved cat who, ever since she adopted him, comes with Hermione everywhere she goes, and when Ron starts to complain about it, she gets very angry and defensive. To her, Crookshanks is her cat, her family, and it is completely inappropriate and uncalled for for Ron to say anything that contradicts that, even if it’s true that Crookshanks is trying to eat Scabbers. These possessive feelings toward Crookshanks blind Hermione to the facts of reality, that cats eat rats, therefore causing a fight between her and Ron. Similarly, Hermione has a very strong view of how she likes to learn--facts out of books that can be physically learned and practiced--and when that specific method is challenged by Trelawney’s ways of teaching Divination, she feels threatened. Hermione has a hard time adjusting to a new way of thinking, and because she feels criticized both by that and by that fact that Trelawney is actually criticizing her, she decides that she is just done.
Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire--Slytherin Here, it is her senses of pride, loyalty, and vengefulness that attribute to Hermione’s character. She dedicates the majority of this book to helping Harry survive the Triwizard Tournament, again prioritizing her friends above all else. She helps Harry to learn about the dragons and meet with Sirius, not objecting to his sneaking out past curfew and even offering to break rules herself by letting off dungbombs in the common room. Hermione nags Harry over and over again that his first priority must be figuring out the dragon egg’s clue (because that will help him to survive and therefore make her happy), and when Harry needs to practice jinxes for the maze in the third task, she sacrifices her own need of studying for her exams in order to help him. Though these acts may seem selfless, they are only so because they are for Harry, who is a part of her family. Had this been happening to any other person, Hermione probably wouldn’t have cared as much (or even at all). Similarly, Hermione goes after Rita Skeeter because of her exploitations of Hagrid, another person she has come to call her own. Her cunning ambition leads her to discover the truth, and once she finds it, Hermione uses it as leverage over Rita to keep her from attacking her friends ever again. She even tells Ron that after a while, Rita will be back to writing horrible stuff, but as long as that horrible stuff isn’t about any of Hermione’s people, it doesn’t matter.
Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix--Gryffindor Hermione demonstrates her strong beliefs and desires in this book, showcased both in her want to help others, in her narrow-mindedness, and in her desire for others to listen to her. One of her main struggles in this book is the search for elf rights, which began in the previous novel and has now turned into physical activism. As others are wary, indignant, and even critical of her beliefs, she has decided to help the elves herself by making them clothes so that they can be free. Freedom is what the elves truly want and is the best thing that can happen to them, despite what everyone else tells her. However, too wrapped up in her beliefs, Hermione fails to take into account what the elves actually want, forcing clothes and freedom on them when they like their lives as servants. Another instance where Hermione acts similarly is when she jinxes the list of DA members so that whoever squeals on them will be sure to regret it. The main point of this action is to punish those who don’t think like her or value her beliefs. By signing the parchment, the characters are (unknowingly) agreeing to break school rules in order to follow Hermione’s rules, and disobeying those are like waking a sleeping giant. In a way, this can be seen as a Slytherin act, that anyone who tries to harm her friends and her school and her defense group has got to go, but at a base level, this is seen as a disagreement of morals and ideas, which is inherently Gryffindor.
Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince--Hufflepuff Ignoring the stupid love triangles between her, Ron, and Lavender and between her, Ron, and McLaggen, Hermione is all about working hard, following rules, and playing fairly in this book. This especially shows in how Hermione treats Harry in Potions classes, while doing Potions homework, and any other time that the Half-Blood Prince is mentioned. Because Harry uses the Prince’s tips and bits of advice to get ahead in Potions class rather than following the intended instructions like everyone else, Hermione gets angry and accuses him of cheating. This could be because, as Ron says, she doesn’t like seeing someone else beat her at something, but I think that it is more likely that Hermione doesn’t like seeing someone else beat her at something who doesn’t deserve it. Hermione thinks that in order to be the top student, you need to learn as much as you can and work and study hard (all while following the rules), and Harry does not do this. He simply follows what the Prince wrote and makes her look bad in comparison. She understands that Harry’s way of doing things may produce better results, but because it is not he who came up with these modifications and yet it is he who takes the credit for them, Hermione is bitter.
Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows--Slytherin This is a book in which Hermione is all duty and no nonsense. Harry is her friend who she would do anything for, even if that means months of tricky spell work and intricate planning, sending her parents away to another continent, and risking her life in the process. She made a promise to him and Ron, and her refusal to back out (even when the latter does) shows her unbreakable loyalty to the commitments she makes. Showing a bit of her Hufflepuff side, Hermione is thorough, careful, and cautious every step of the way, doing everything herself when the boys fail to help her, but this ultimately comes through as Slytherin reasoning because it is motivated by duty rather than a want to help. Also a sign of Slytherin reasoning, Hermione’s aversion to believing Xenophilius Lovegood’s (not so) ludicrous tale of the Deathly Hallows shows her no-nonsense personality when it comes to the impractical and the illogical. She is especially reluctant to accept this idea because it provides a distraction from their original mission, which is what first and foremost needs to get done. There is no time for nonsense when there is a duty to be done.
However, though Hermione is able to show us how she is representative of all four houses throughout the series, I still think that she is a Slytherclaw. From what we have seen, much of Hermione’s motivation for what she does is driven by her want to protect those she feels connected to and her ambitious desire to accomplish a task (Slytherin), and though it might only be explicitly stated above in the first two books of the series, Hermione accomplishes everything she does in a very planned, analyzed, and calculated way (Ravenclaw). As J.K. Rowling herself has said, the series grew and developed as it progressed (which explains why I had less to write about with the first couple books) and Hermione’s Ravenclaw habits, which were previously the only things that defined her, grew into habits that stemmed from Slytherin motivations.

Education & Democracy
Consider a ship. The ship is to undertake a journey - it has to sail through several oceans to reach a land far away. On its way, it will encounter difficult waters, storms even - it is guaranteed to be a difficult journey. Such a voyage requires a skilled captain. In order to determine who should command this ship, a committee of people is going to be established. These people will decide which person is best equipped for this task.
You are the first member of this committee, and you are assigned with the task of recruiting other people for this committee. Note that your task right now is not to choose the captain, but to simply assemble a group of people who will make that decision. Contemplate for a moment - on what basis should this committee be chosen?
The objective of this committee is to choose the best candidate for captain. To do this, we begin by defining a criteria to judge whether a person is a good fit for captain or not. There are, broadly speaking, two categories of concern here.
The first one is technical: what route does the captain plan to take, how does she plan on dealing with storms, etc. The other is not technical: the voyage is not simply about going from point A to point B, it is to ensure that the people onboard are safe and that there is peace and harmony on the ship. For this, we question: is the captain prudent? Is she wise and careful? Is she aggressive? Is she kind?
As average people, it is not possible for us to be experts in each technical aspect - however, in order to judge whether the captain is qualified, it is necessary for at least some of us to possess basic knowledge regarding the technical aspects of sailing.
Now that we’ve established the qualities that we seek in a captain, we can determine the qualities that our committee members must possess.
To judge whether someone has a certain quality, we must possess an understanding of that quality itself. We must understand the benefits of such a quality, and if we seek our captain to have this quality, it must be a good quality, and if it is a good quality, we must ourselves wish to have it. Hence, the people who select the captain must possess the same qualities that they seek in the captain. Our task then boils down to looking for people who possess a subset of the qualities that we wish for the captain to have. Note that if they possess all the qualities that the captain should have, then perhaps they should be captain themselves. Therefore, we restrict our search to people who are strictly less qualified than required for captaincy - they possess certain but not all qualities that are required to become captain.
The people who select the captain, therefore, must be a partial reflection of the captain: the committee must be comprised of people who possess the basics of the technical know-how in order to judge whether the applicant is qualified or not, and also, the values required to judge whether the applicant is the right person to lead and manage the voyage in its non-technical aspects.
* * *
The idea of democracy emerged in ancient Greece. The word comes from ‘demos’ - common people, and ‘kratos’ - strength. Democracy is a Greek concept, and interestingly, one of the strongest criticisms against democracy comes from the founding father of Greek philosophy, Socrates. The story above is simply an extension of the argument that Socrates offered - the ship is the society, the captain is the elected government and the committee of people are the voters.
In a democracy by birthright, each citizen that has attained 18 years of age is allowed to vote. That is to say, each citizen’s opinion is given equal weight in the democratic process. This is equivalent to allowing all the sailors on the boat to be a part of the committee that selects the captain - it is, naturally, ‘equal’, but logically, it guarantees an inefficiency in the outcome of the democratic process - it accounts for the opinion of those who do not possess the skills necessary to make an informed decision. In a highly literate society, this would be a small cost to bear - as long as the majority is capable of critical thinking, the outcome would be efficient, along with the positive side effect of creating a sense of equality amongst the citizens. However, we are not living in a highly ‘literate’ society. Statistically higher literacy rates have failed to account for the limitations of the education.
Education all over the world has been moving further and further away from humanities, closer to natural sciences. Particularly in this part of the world, the education system involves very little amount of compulsory education in philosophy or political science. As jobs in these fields are not economically rewarding, students too lack the incentives to take up these fields or study them. However, what this has created is a society of highly educated illiterates - we understand trigonometry but we do not understand how to reason outside the realm of numbers. Engineering is held in high regard, but political literacy, an education in reasoning, in morality and ethics, it is often dismissed as ‘unnecessary’ for the simple fact that these do not lend themselves very easily to jobs that the capitalist society can absorb. By the virtue of understanding calculus or the laws of motion, one is not naturally equipped to make better decisions. The tools necessary to calculate the trajectory of objects are not the same tools that can be used to differentiate between right and wrong, good and bad - the progress of society has been lopsided.
* * *
“Government of the people, by the people, for the people” - nearly every introduction to the idea of democracy is built around this quote by Abraham Lincoln. It successfully highlights the essence of a democratic institution: people. The people are essentially the engine of a democracy. They participate in the process by adopting different roles: as citizens, journalists, civil servants, political leaders, etc. A democracy works only when all of these perform their functions effectively. Essentially, people are the ground upon which the 4 pillars of a democracy stand.
Our goal, then, becomes to ensure that this ground is firm, that it is fertile, which is to say, to ensure that people are not just well trained but well educated. This is an uncommon belief, in the sense that nobody would rationally disagree with this statement but there are not many people who understand its implications as well as what it demands from us as human beings - it demands a process of constant education - of learning, unlearning and relearning.
The reluctance to devote time and energy to human sciences is a product of several things. The present job market is one of those factors - but then, we don’t do everything just for the sake of work. There is another factor, one that discourages people from moving beyond newspapers and TV and social media - it is the subjectivity.
Society and its functioning does not have a basis in science, at least not in the same sense as the science of the physical world - there are no exact rules that dictate how society works, or how society should work. There are different schools of thought, and each of these lead us on different paths - perhaps, then, there is no objective measure to navigate this space, to understand this world. This belief is only amplified by the environment - the primary source for information in these matters is the news channels, the newspapers. Information has increased, sensationalism has increased, and without being familiar with the fundamentals the govern the debate, we watch news anchors spit over each other, fact after fact, accusation after accusation. With no simple way to understand and to catch up, it seems, the act of being an informed citizen demands far too much these days - how can we be expected to follow the chain of thought and to verify the information being thrown at us, when all of it is happening so quickly? Most people resort to making their own judgements about this information, then, and here too, our judgement is affected by the limits of our knowledge - without a real ‘education’, not just training, but education, our judgement is simply a byproduct of our sentiments - perhaps, this news channel is reliable, or this anchor seems to make sense, or in the past, he has been correct, or his stance is popular. We employ shortcuts in thinking - heuristics - to arrive at what seems to be an approximately correct answer. However, it is far from correct.
Human sciences are subjective, there is no doubt to this - but how subjective? There is no rule, no method that works in every situation - but are there rules that work well in most situations? Is there a way of thinking that can guide us, generally at least, in processing information and understanding society? This is exactly the purpose behind studying history, political science, economics and philosophy. An education in these subjects is essential in developing an understanding of society and participating efficiently in it. People dismiss the study of history - it is true, I gain nothing from learning the exact date that Hitler came to power. However, that is not the true objective of studying history - it is to understand the world that existed before us, so that we can understand how we got here. It is to learn from the mistakes of the past, so that we are not doomed to repeat it. Philosophy, perhaps, receives the strongest criticism - outside academic spaces, it is considered to be a form of intellectual masturbation, with no meaning to be derived from it. Logic is a branch of philosophy that enables us to understand how to reason for ourselves, to determine the validity of a belief, an idea. It is through philosophy that we study ethics, that we learn about morality, the differentiation between right and wrong, good and bad - terms that we encounter every day in our lives, not only in the broader political domain but the personal one too. Yet, most of us receive nearly no formal education in philosophy, and our education in history is limited to learning dates and listing out, in a formulaic manner, the cause and effect of historical events - 8 points for 4 marks, 10 points for 5 marks. To compensate for the lack of critical thinking, some schools have introduced sessions for moral values - to teach kids what is right and what is wrong. Still, the vision is missing - society continues to evolve - the challenges our parents faced are radically different from the ones we face today. It is not enough to teach them what is right and what is wrong - what is necessary is to introduce them to a method through which they can determine this for themselves, for the countless challenges that they will face.
Democracy is flawed because its foundation is flawed: most people are not ‘educated’ in the true sense of being educated - they are highly trained to perform specific jobs. They work as engineers, doctors, businessmen, scientists, designers. The difference between training and education is subtle - but it counts, in every way. Our goal then, to be better people, to be better citizens, involves an education that does not end. It is a pursuit without a fixed answer, and as long as the answer keeps changing, we must keep learning.

(Perceptions of Senior Highschool Students) K-12 Implementation: Supported by the Senior Highschool Students or not?
By Louise Talabis, Kathleen Basence, & Michelou Blancaflor
In this fascinatingly frustrating world with predictably unpredictable happenings that requires literacy, numeracy and being techy, quality education is not only vital in every generation but is also critical because it is the determinant of a nation’s success. Furthermore, amidst the government’s different methods on schemes, the environment’s varying mishaps, and the rampant social issues in our dear country, each person, whether white or black, regardless of their status can be one of the rays of hope and the key to better and more developed society as long as they’re given opportunities to attain quality education. Also, because of sufficient and great knowledge due to having quality education, anyone can sagely give their two cents about a particular topic. Be it about politics, economics, environment, one will always have a stand regarding any of the current issues specifically depending on his or her personal belief, religious belief, political belief and culture. In spite of such diversity in voices, beliefs and tradition, we wanted to hear these people out specifically students regarding the very timely implementation of the K-12 program. Don’t we all notice the abrupt shift of our educational system or curriculum? Don’t we have to hear others’ opinion? Bear in mind that a person, especially if exposed to different opinions and ideas and has also learned to look at the world through different eyeglasses, will be more educated.
It was a very a cloudless day and as strong as the hot topics and trending issues nowadays, we felt the scorching heat from the bright rays of the sun, affecting the voluminous students passing inside and outside the campus, audaciously beating the shifting weather, we indefatigably walk in search of different views of people since we wanted to hear diverse point of views of some of the first batch of senior high school students regarding the implementation of the K-12 program because we believe that opinions are varying and that everyone has a right to vent out their thoughts specifically to let the authorities be informed as well of the side of the student about the said implementation. But first, for others who do not know what really is K-12 about, the K to 12 Programs is mandated by R.A 10533, or otherwise known as “Basic Education Act of 2013”. The curriculum of Department of Education covers Kindergarten and another 12 years of education, and aims to provide appropriate time for mastery, development, and preparation for tertiary education and employment which obviously means that the years of studying will be longer than before. Moreover, the student will be required to finish senior year first before he or she can enter college and will only get a certificate when he accomplished his or her junior year. However, if he or she finished senior year he or she can now apply and have a job.
As we all know, there are hundreds of books, movies, and television shows that portray senior year as a time of independence and growth. It is true that once you hit senior year, you are no longer a small fish in a big pond. As a senior, you are a campus leader—it is your responsibility to show underclassmen the ropes. Four years of high school have made you an expert on all things in secondary education, but you may not know what to expect on that first day of senior year and yes, one of our interviewee, Mr. Joseph Paul Roxas, a Senior High School student from De La Salle University-Dasmariñas experienced a lot of dilemma during his Senior Year. Well, the pressure and the stress that he is encountering today doubled compared to other senior high students because he is also an athlete, a Volleyball player to be exact. According to him, the additional 2 years of K-12 is good for them and it is beneficial because, it can help them to be more prepared to the enter college years. He also said that it will help them to gain new knowledge in different things. But for him, there are also some disadvantages of being an athlete. He told us that there are a lot of tasks, homework to be passed and because of that he cannot longer play his sport, volleyball. During the last part of our interview, JP also shared to us that K-12 does not help him to develop his skills in terms of volleyball because according to him, their Physical Education in K-12 offers only the basic skills. Upon hearing this, we were surprised since we didn’t know until now that it’s only the basics being taught. Come to think of it though, maybe the reason is that these sports were already taught during the high school years and maybe they think that senior year should be more focused on career- development and academics but it is safe to say that students should really be the ones to adjust in situations and changes like this and that time management is a significant trait that a student should possess.
Life is a balance as most people believe. Most of the time balancing can be an easy, like putting fewer things on the bag the better. But sometimes the idea of putting more in the bag can bring great satisfaction when achieving it all. Another student-athlete, Earl Vergara, knew this but at the same time he knew that balancing it with his academic responsibilities could bring him a hard time. He is from the University of Perpetual Help-Jonelta senior high school basketball team and in his four years in the game, Earl Vergara plays a big role in the team. He also brought a lot of praise and respect to his school. During the interview we learned that, since his first year, it is really his choice to pursue his talent in basketball not only to satisfy himself but also to lessen the amount of his tuition fee but now that he is experiencing the new curriculum of the Department of Education called K to 12 program and it was hard for him to swallow the reality of an additional 2 years in high school. “Beneficial naman ang program na yun para sa mga student na di na tutuntong sa college at ang goal ay makapagtrabaho na agad” said Vergara when asked if he thinks that the program is beneficial. Also according to him, his plans in college didn’t really change despite the amendment of their curriculum. He believes that he will be more equipped and capable to balance his career in basketball and responsibilities as a student when he enters college.
“Ang tanging sagot lang is you should know what to put at the top of your list. Prioritize academics above all. Hindi naman kailangan na nasa top 10, ang mahalaga ay yung alam mong may natututunan ka kasabay ng pag gawa mo ng kung ano yung gusto mo.” Hearing that first hand is a good thing to know from student athletes like him- prioritizing academics above all since as we all know, student athletes are sometimes being generalized as students who chooses sports over academics. However, by reason of him, we can see the bigger picture that there are indeed students who still know how to set and handle their priorities right. Also, we were amazed that passion really is an agent in pursuing your other goals in life. As for him, basketball helped him get discounts in his tuition. Showing that there will always be a way to achieve quality education no matter what the hindrance is. As other people would say, “If there’s a will, there’s a way”.
Education is possible regardless of the circumstance- that is what this student made us remember. She is Clarisse Banasihan, a consistent honor student from Tungtungin Putho Integrated National Highschool. “Nung una po, siyempre, parang ang inisip namin agad ay yung negative part na may two years na naman so parang inisip naming lahat na matagal pa pero nung inexplain kung ano talaga yung pinaka purpose ng K-12 naging panatag na naman tsaka okay na” Banasihan said when asked about her thoughts about the program’s implementation. “For cons po kasi don sa mga di naman nakakaangat angat, ang iniisip nila kasi nung nalaman nila, iniisip nila na gastos, gastos na naman pero nung pinaliwanag na yung 2 years na yun kahit wag na magcollege and ready ka na rin naman magtrabaho after non” she said when asked about the cons of the K-12 program. We also found out that her mother is the only one who provides for their family after her father who was a pedicab driver died about two years ago. She shared that she is really motivated to finish her studies but as she has mentioned earlier, because of financial problem, instead of choosing the academic track or strand Humanities and Social Sciences or HUMSS, she chose the strand General Academic Strand or GAS instead since it is cheaper in terms of expenses and it is for those who still can’t decide what particular strand to take. “Okay naman po kasi nakatulong po sa pagpili ko ng gusto ko talaga, madami lang po talagang activities na pinapagawa compared nung junior high po ako”. The first thing that came up to our minds upon hearing this is that requirements and deadlines are certainly what a student life is in a nutshell then again all of us should consider this as a stepping stone towards our goals in life.
Besides, all dreams whether whimsical or practical, realistic or idealistic are attainable nonetheless. The process, however, may be arduous but consider it as a boundless marathon wherein you can reach the finish line despite the number of pitfalls you will encounter in pursuit of that dream. Notwithstanding the diversity in perceptions, we were satisfied by the fact that the senior high students we interviewed are optimistic and passionate. They’re all goal-orientated, focused and determined to attain quality education that showed in their support in the implementation of the K-12 program. Overall, we are delighted to know that the positive feedbacks are more than the negative thoughts about the K-12 program.

5 Tips For Choosing a Career Path While Still in High School
As challenging as it is, education is the start of your journey towards being an independent and successful individual. Consequently, the time comes when you have to choose the right career path. The truth is, this can be very challenging, especially when you have to juggle school as well. However, it is possible to be in high school and career ready.
Granted, your high school years are part of the most formative years of your life. It plays a huge role in helping you decide on the career you want to embrace when you’re older. There are lots of instances when students already know what they want to do by the time they’re graduating – but some aren’t so lucky.
Why Should Students Start Thinking About Careers While They’re Still in High School?
Although choosing your career path may seem challenging, it’s not. It only requires careful thinking and planning. Remember that this decision will affect you for the rest of your life in terms of your income, way of living, job satisfaction, and more. Thus, it shouldn’t be taken lightly. Well, you can always change career paths later on in life, but the process is very challenging and will still depend on the choices you make now.
The fact of the matter is that this is the best time to be thinking about the future. If you already have an idea of what you would want to do, you can go on to choose the appropriate classes and schools to further your education and start working towards your goals early on. But while you’re still young and exploring new ideas and thoughts, it’s the best time to decide on your future and create a smooth and steady path for yourself. So, how can you make the right career choice that ultimately sets you up for success?
A Step by Step Guide on How to Choose a Career While You’re Still in High School
While there are many tips to help you choose a career path, here are a few essential steps to get you started.
1) Create a List of Professions
Every high school student has an idea of what they would like to pursue, which is a huge advantage when it comes to making a list of the occupations that interest you.
This list should consist of all the professions, starting from the ones that interested you as a child to the ones you’re interested in right now, regardless of how bizarre they seem.
2) Explore the Professions
Once you’ve created a list, it’s time to do research. Don’t worry; this research is nothing similar to what you do for your term papers, so it should be fun! All you need to do is read engaging articles, get more information about your potential dream career(s), and learn more about the occupations on your list.
Additionally, look for published resources and find the requirements of the careers you’ve listed. Read what other people are saying about the jobs you are interested in. Consider whether you’ll require to receive a college degree to improve your marketability in that field and so on. You don’t have to get your final career choice from this research, but only narrow down on your options.
3) Self-evaluation
The final decision of your career choice should be based on you, your interests, hobbies, personality, and preferences.
To ensure that you choose a career that is right for you, you’ll need to ask yourself the following questions:
a) Where Do You See Yourself in 10 Years?
Where you see yourself dramatically determines what you want to do. For instance, do you see yourself in an office or traveling around the world? Would you like to pursue a career in law or athletics? Perhaps you want a flexible schedule as a freelancer?
Generally, you need to think about all these factors and come up with answers to these questions, among others. Doing this will enable you to eliminate some of the choices that you’ve simply grown out of or don’t resonate with where you see yourself. Moreover, this allows you to stick with the career choices that you want and not those imposed by another person.
b) Do You Need Further Education for Your Career Choice?
In most cases, after choosing your career, the next step involves determining whether you’ll need further education. Are there better opportunities with a college or university degree? Will a college education prepare you for the career?
c) Do You Have the Necessary Skills?
It’s pretty simple really if your dream career is to be a writer, you’ll need advanced writing skills, and if it’s to be a singer, you need a killer voice. All career paths demand a specific skill set.
Thus, regardless of how badly you want a job or think that a particular career is the best for you, having the right skills is a must. And no, not everyone possesses the same set of skills. Nonetheless, you can do a self-assessment and determine whether you have what it takes to pursue your career choice.
d) Do You Enjoy Working With People?
Although communication and collaboration are significant aspects in most careers, some require minimum communication. Typically, whether you enjoy working with people or not all depends on your personality.
In this case, you need to determine whether you’re an introvert or extrovert and pick a career that compliments your character to avoid job dissatisfaction.
e) Is Your Career Choice Financially Maintainable?
Choosing your future career boils down to two critical things, education and finances. Generally, the well-paying jobs demand more training and experience, which realistically may take a lot of time. On the other hand, you can do a short-term course for an average salary.
While making your choice, consider college expenses. Is your career path capable of paying off your college debt if you enroll in a college program? Will receiving further education improve your career opportunities? When answering these questions, do take your time to come to the right decision.
4) Make a Shortlist
Now, after you’ve gone through all the steps above, it’s time to narrow down further. Look at the career choices on your list and, again, eliminate more based on what you’ve learned from your research. The goal is to end up with about five to ten occupations.
Once you have this list, you can do the final round of eliminations. At this point, you should be ready to answer “how to choose a career? And make the final choice. Remember to select the occupation that brings you the most satisfaction, is within your skillset, and matches your future objectives.
5) Make a Career Plan
Well, different careers require a set of specific skills, talents, and qualifications.
By the time you make the final decision, you’ll already be aware of the requirements of your career path. At this stage, you should have a career plan to help you achieve your goals and get in your dream career path. Besides this step by step guide, read on for more tips to help make your career plan a success.
How Can I Decide on a Career Path While I’m Still in High School?

One of the best things you could do to choose a career path is to develop and explore your interests. If you aren’t interested in a specific career option, then it’s not for you.
Find something that you love to do because there’s almost always a career path for our hobbies. If you love to cook, the culinary arts waits for you. If you love to write, you could go on to become a leading journalist in your city. The options are limitless, but make sure that you consider something that you enjoy.
As cliché as it may sound, make sure that you give importance to education. Many take advantage of their access to education and don’t use it in the right ways. Learning constantly helps you grow as an individual, and will eventually benefit you in the long run. Never pass on the opportunity to learn new things. Look at them as a way of growing and educating yourself.
Talking to a professional in the field that you’re considering would be extremely beneficial as well. By doing so, you’ll be able to learn about the experiences they’ve had in this industry and you would be able to decide for yourself whether this is the path you want to pursue.
Internships and volunteer opportunities are a great way to discover unconventional jobs and the world around you. If you love animals, you could volunteer at your local shelter and see if that sparks a passion in you that you didn’t even know you had. Of course, this doesn’t mean that you should not have realistic expectations. Not every hobby can turn into a successful career and it’s always best to be realistic about what you choose to do.
It’s important to remember that while you might find something that you love, those things might change in the future. It’s helpful to think of a few possible career options in case this does happen; always have a back-up plan. Keep in mind that everything changes. If you do choose a career and end up unhappy, it will never be too late to try out something new so it’s vital that you start planning now and think of other professions you would like to possibly take on.
We’re constantly evolving and changing as human beings and it’s understandable if our passions and interests change along with us. You will always be able to control the way your path goes – you are in charge of your own future and happiness.
Try new things. Get out of your comfort zone and try activities you usually wouldn’t. Learn about a topic that you wouldn’t otherwise choose first. Exposing yourselves to the different activities and experiences that the world has to offer is vital and will help you learn new skills in life and allow to gain knowledge outside the classroom.
Don’t focus on the opinions of other people. There are individuals who will put down your choices, but it’s important to stay true to who you are. If you choose a path that you truly believe in, then stick to it. The world is full of Debbie Downers and if you let them get to you, you’ll find it hard to be happy.
Don’t let someone else choose a career for you. While parents may know best sometimes, they don’t know you as well as you do. If your parent or guardian tries to pressure you into a specific career but you know that it’s something you won’t enjoy, then it’s not a career that you should pursue. If you end up at a job that you don’t necessarily like or one that you wanted, you won’t learn and you won’t be motivated to be the best you can be. To be successful in your career, it takes wanting to be successful. You will never excel or even want to do a good job if you are unhappy with your profession.
Ask relevant organizations if you can shadow a professional. Shadowing someone in the field you’re interested in will give you a clear idea of what the day-to-day responsibilities will look like if you were to take on that role in the future. This is a good way of learning whether or not you might actually like or enjoy the job, and will give you a clear understanding of whether you think you would be able to handle the work.
One last piece of advice is to never be afraid to ask for help. There are teachers, career professionals, and counselors who are trained to help you plan out your life. Sometimes we all need a bit of guidance and a push in order to learn more about ourselves and discover newer opportunities. Asking for help will never make you weak!

SHORT DESCRIPTION.
Sohrab is one of Avatar’s apprentices. The dark mage studied under Avatar for two years before they disappear without any notice. It was shocking for the young man and to the other children that were studying under them. He waited for any news about his mentor but no one saw Avatar after that day. Sohrab, as a self-discovery journey, left his hometown south of west of Ylisstol, and set out to explore the world. Sohrab has many questions to why Avatar had left without any notice. He has no intention of following Avatar all over the world, if he managed to meet them within Ylisse then that’s good on its own, other than that he will not venture past the Halidom. It was a promise he made to his mother that he will not under any circumstances go to Plegia (His father’s home country.) Valm and Ferox are on his list but for now, he decided to explore his country first then expand his horizon.
>His main objective is and will remain: to know more about what is Alchemy.

The mother was a citizen of a border village between the two nations who fled after seeing her family gruesomely killed by the Plegian army. The woman most terrified upon seeing the researcher tried to run away from him to see that she was trapped between going back to her death or a lost opportunity to escape by running away from the Plegian man.
The researcher reassures her that he has no merit in hurting her but she did not believe him. The sound of the army’s heavy steps is approaching where the two are and fear rose in the poor maiden’s heart that she is willing to take whatever around her to end her life and not be killed or worse, raped by these murderers. She quickly reached for a tree branch and was ready to stab her neck when the man leaped at her and snatched the stick away and yelled at her for thinking of something foolish like that, and without any hesitation, he pushed her behind a rock and stood in front of it after telling her to shut up.
The group of soldiers stopped by when they saw him and asked him why a man of science is in here and he told them that he is trying to understand human soul and what is a better place to be to study that than the battlefield aka a Grimleal task to which the believed and did not poke the matter further. They asked him if he saw a runaway maiden and he quickly denies seeing her. They walk away, leaving the two alone. The man takes off his cape and drapes it on the girl to prevent anyone from recognizing her heritage then guides her back to his tent. She did not resist that much because she lost all hope in escaping because resisting at this point will just prolong her inevitable fate. The scientist lets her in and explains that no harm will befall her if she accepted his help which he will try his best to secure a route for her to escape back into Ylisse. The woman did not believe him so he had to give a guarantee of his honest words, so he take out his precious item, a family heirloom–his family crest, and push it to her and tell her that she can keep this as a sign of his sincerity. She is surprised and puzzled of why would he go this far for her. He explains that his motives are purely scientific. He’d like to see her soul under these circumstances, what is going to evolve into? She stares at him for a whole minute before she starts to laugh. He finds her behavior odd and worth investigating but she then starts to cry which makes it even stranger. She tells him that he should not give away his treasure to someone he just met, not to mention is going to die soon but he stops her saying that he will see her; he will go to Ylisse to search for her once he is able. She blushes and holds the crest closer to her heart. She knows he probably did not mean it in any romantic way…strange she still thinks of love despite this kind of situation she is in.
Though, he holds her hand and tells her that he will find her to see her soul, if it was healed or not and whether he can help in any way after he finishes his research. He promises her that then goes to find a way to slip her off the border back to Ylisse. The plan works and he sees her disappearing into the horizon. After few months, he slips away from Plegia before the war grows madder and the Ylissean Exalt assault the kingdom. It takes him another two months before he locates her. He had to do everything in his power to not be recognized as Plegian. He spoke only ylissean tongue and changed clothes whenever he can to fit in till he found her. At first, she did not recognize him because his hair grow longer and he no longer looks like a plegian scholar but a simple traveler. He reassures her that it is him and time just did number on him. The woman cries again after hugging him and telling him that she waited for him to come every day. He meant so much to her despite not knowing anything about him except his name. He asks her whether she is willing to marry a madman who is in love with science and discovery to find her answer with a simple kiss to his lips which sealed their fate for years to come–together.
BEGINNING:
Timeline:
17 years ago: Parents met when the war between Plegia and Ylisse started at the skirmishes
16 years ago: The father escaped Plegia to Ylisse to find the mother
15 years ago: Sohrab was about a couple months old
Sohrab at 14: Avatar coming to the village
Sohrab at 16: Avatar leaving the village then he left the village with Duncan’s group
Sohrab at 19: Exploring almost all Ylisse (and meeting the shepherds)
------------------ xx ------------------ xx ------------------ xx
After their marriage, Sohrab’s mother was pregnant after a month of their commitment then for the next 8 months, his father was dying to secure everything possible for his wife in order to deliver the baby safely. The father started working as a teacher in the local school whilst the mother was a tailor. Having been tutored by his own father, it was a reason for why Sohrab admired Avatar. They were good at teaching which reminded the brunet of his own family. The parents did everything for the boy to learn what is wrong and right despite how bad the situation was.
The First Ylisse-Plegia war was a complete disaster for both nations. It ended with so much hatred and sorrow. Being a Plegian amongst Ylisseans, Sohrab’s father had to be twice careful of revealing his true identity. Fortunately, the village they were living in, had accepted him as a member of their society after a while. He’s only able to say that he is Plegian only inside that small population. Any other place, he is to be secretive.
This had an impact on the boy. He grows up to be sharp at a young age due to what was happening around him. He understood that if someone where to find out that he is a half, he is probably to be murdered on the spot. This fear subsided when Avatar came. Being a Plegian themselves, Avatar tried to explain for Sohrab that being one is not bad, it is one’s action, not their nationality. Sohrab was the only one to know of the Avatar’s true heritage. Sohrab’s father had his suspicion around Avatar but did not poke his nose around because he respected the other’s privacy.
The parents feared that one day, the boy will be found and persuaded to join the Grimleal and their efforts to hide him away from this will go to waste which why they found some solace when Avatar came to teach the kids what they know, another perspective on life.
AVATAR’S ADVENT.
Years later, Sohrab was 14 when Avatar came to their village. They stayed for two years, teaching the kids in the village all sorts of knowledge they possess. What were the motives of Avatar coming to their village were kept secret from the villagers but they offered their services if they can stay in the village for a while.
As they came they went. They vanished without leaving any trace of where they have gone to, when they will be back or even a goodbye letter. Sohrab looks up to them as a source of inspiration so their disappearance made him sad, rather disappointed that they did not have the time to simply say goodbye at least. Sohrab was 16 by then.
During the time Avatar spent, Sohrab, possessed quite the knowledge thanks to them. true that he was not gifted with a critical thinking mind, but he was an eager student. He studied everything that Avatar throw his way, whether he fully understood it at that time or not, was not a problem. Avatar told him that a good first step to read and read, the application is important but in due time. Thus, Sohrab was not worried if he did not understand half of what the Avatar used to say because he knows by time and with enough experience, he will get it. The Alchemist learned nifty skills from Avatar like observation. Since Sohrab was a quiet kid, he could have detected things that most of the kids could not. Still, may not be as good as the Avatar, but he trained his eyes to spot things–any oddity, especially with human’s body language. It piqued his interest to be able to draw raw assumptions of someone’s character by simply observing their body language. So, he worked on that by reading more and observing.
Sohrab and the other kids who were studying under Avatar were saddened. Avatar could have said a proper goodbye but they did not. Some of them felt betrayed as Avatar promised to teach them all the cool things they knew and some with time forgotten about them. Sohrab cared for Avatar because for him, Avatar was someone close of a big sibling to him. Since he is an only child, it was certainly helping to have Avatar around him. For Sohrab, Avatar was a sibling, or a father figure (if Avatar was male) like since the two (Avatar and his father) are in a way teachers, source of inspiration and ambition, a source for a positive outlet, and their kindness and thoughtful nature especially when he was struggling with his identity, Avatar stood up with him. Plus, the amount of knowledge they have was something really to admire. He wished he could be like them but knowing how limited his abilities are, he simply kept dreaming of being a good dependable person like them. So, their disappearance was quite the shock for him.
However, his thirst for discovery from his father’s side urged him to out and explore the world. Of course, all to his mother’s chagrin but he promised her to stay safe as possible.
CURRENT ALCHEMIST.
Sohrab left his village at a young age after many days of his mother’s refusal saying that he is still young. Thankfully, a merchant in his village, Duncan promised to take good care of Sohrab if his mother agree. After the father spoke kind words to her about letting him go sooner than having to face it when he decides to sneak out because of her ‘overprotectiveness’ the mother then agree but making him promise to not leave Ylisse for Plegia at any cost or meet or interact with any Plegian,
The young alchemist leaves with the parents blessing of seeing the truth of his this world by his own eyes and experience and feel what books or words by mouth cannot express. Sohrab joins Duncan’s merchant group and travels with them wherever they go and when their roads differ, Sohrab would leave them and wander with another group of merchants or mercenary (did not matter to him) to explore the world. And whenever he would meet up with Duncan’s group, he would send letters and gifts back home.It was a rough journey but he enjoyed every bit of it. Even when he nearly died because of a high fever, he took it as a valuable experience and made sure to have proper precautions for the future. After 3 years of roaming around the country, he became pretty much knowledgeable of the terrains. He often becomes a guide for groups of merchants in exchange for traveling with them and information on any tidbits of information on this alchemy. To Sohrab’s shock, in his traveling, his mother got pregnant and gave birth to a little brother of his. As much as he wanted to come back and see his little brother, it was kind of impossible as he was tracing a lead on a book he got a tip about and leaving the traces to get cold was out of the question. He kind of hated his pragmatic thinking at sometimes but if he returned what could he do for his new little brother? He is still a baby to tell him about his adventures. Maybe the next year when he manages to track down that book he wanted. Naga only knows where this might lead him.
With time, he met people who had books about the old continent, more elaborated on certain aspects and he managed to salvage a bit here and a bit there about Alchemy. Even books that are half damaged, its contents are about a guy called Forneus. By the end of his third year, he was able to combine a sword to his body. It was a reckless attempted but it was a test of his abilities. As a starter, Sohrab could synthesize lesser things like a paper, quill, gradually to mix and forge small accessories like rings and pendant but he was not into creating these stuff. He was more of practical person so anything that is actually useful to use he would attempt to learn and create.
His first success was creating a healing salve that could not fully heal wounds but it was a grand thing for someone as Sohrab who learned everything by himself. His success rate gradually increased with every new item he synthesized perfectly. His next attempt was weapons because it was rather expensive to keep buying low standard swords which keeps breaking every now and then. The first successful weapon was a dagger. Weak and could not last after two uses but for a first try to manifest it, it was a great attempt. Then he gradually kept adding more materials trial and error until he found the best formula to synthesize a durable dagger, and even poisonous one. His next experiment was a sword. After another a couple of tries, he managed to materialize the sword in a stable state without losing its form. His next task was to link that sword he made with his body for easy summon to it rather than actually synthesize it in battle, he can simply summon it. Once he was able to link the sword to his left arm, his body at first did not react but then his body started to reject the sword and any material in his system. Sohrab had a severe fever that could have killed him if it weren’t for Duncan and the rest of the gang, taking him to a healer to cure him. After he recovered, he continued his experiments until his body accustomed to the sword presence in his left arm.
As for the materials, It was a hard process to gather material let alone knowing what sort of things would create the desired item. It was a trial and error kind of phase. He has his journal with every successful and failed experiment. It was his own legacy if someone, like him, attempted to learn Alchemy. The journal is a black leather, with snow-white papers. The cover is his family insignia and his name initials S.E. Of course, this journal was one of the successfully crafted items he attempted and to honor it, he wrote everything in it.
The first page reads the following:
𝒯𝑜 𝓌𝒽𝑜𝑒𝓋𝑒𝓇 𝒸𝑜𝓂𝑒𝓈 𝒾𝓃 𝓅𝑜𝓈𝓈𝑒𝓈𝓈𝒾𝑜𝓃 𝑜𝒻 𝓉𝒽𝒾𝓈 𝒿𝑜𝓊𝓇𝓃𝒶𝓁 𝒷𝑒 𝓌𝒶𝓇𝓃𝑒𝒹. 𝒲𝒽𝒶𝓉 𝓎𝑜𝓊 𝒹𝑜 𝓌𝒾𝓉𝒽 𝓉𝒽𝑒 𝒸𝑜𝓃𝓉𝑒𝓃𝓉 𝑜𝒻 𝓉𝒽𝑒 𝒿𝑜𝓊𝓇𝓃𝒶𝓁 𝒾𝓈 𝓊𝓅 𝓉𝑜 𝓎𝑜𝓊 𝒷𝓊𝓉 𝒷𝑒 𝒶𝓌𝒶𝓇𝑒 𝓉𝒽𝒶𝓉 𝒶 𝒸𝓊𝓇𝓈𝑒 𝓈𝒽𝒶𝓁𝓁 𝒻𝒶𝓁𝓁 𝑜𝓃 𝓎𝑜𝓊 𝒾𝒻 𝓎𝑜𝓊 𝓅𝒶𝓇𝓉𝒶𝓀𝑒 𝒾𝓃 𝒶𝓃𝓎𝓉𝒽𝒾𝓃𝑔 𝒶𝑔𝒶𝒾𝓃𝓈𝓉 𝒽𝓊𝓂𝒶𝓃𝒾𝓉𝓎. 𝑀𝓎 𝓀𝓃𝑜𝓌𝓁𝑒𝒹𝑔𝑒 𝒾𝓈 𝓃𝑜𝓉 𝓂𝑒𝒶𝓃𝓉 𝓉𝑜 𝒽𝒶𝓇𝓂 𝒷𝓊𝓉 𝓉𝑜 𝒽𝑒𝓁𝓅, 𝓃𝑜𝓉 𝓉𝑜 𝒹𝑒𝓈𝓉𝓇𝑜𝓎 𝒷𝓊𝓉 𝓉𝑜 𝓇𝑒𝓈𝓉𝑜𝓇𝑒. 𝐼𝒻 𝓎𝑜𝓊 𝓊𝓈𝑒𝒹 𝓌𝒽𝒶𝓉’𝓈 𝓌𝓇𝒾𝓉𝓉𝑒𝓃 𝒾𝓃 𝒽𝑒𝓇𝑒 𝓂𝒶𝓎 𝑀𝒾𝓁𝒶 𝒶𝓃𝒹 𝒩𝒶𝑔𝒶’𝓈 𝓌𝓇𝒶𝓉𝒽 𝒷𝑒 𝒸𝒶𝓈𝓉 𝑜𝓃 𝓎𝑜𝓊.
All in all, Sohrab learned a lot on his journey, especially the ways of trade since he mostly traveled with merchants. To him, he values the item quality over money. If it is good, he might tempt to buy it even if it was expensive. Though, that does not mean he will not haggle his way to get what he wants with a good price. Notice: It does not mean he is a superb haggler, it is a trial and error experience for him as well.
Since Sohrab’s timeline is a parallel one to the one the game is in, there are similarities between the fate of the two lines. In the future of Sohrab’s world, Grima did indeed take over and Sohrab’s family were killed because their village is still close to Ylisstol thus was invaded by Risens when they swarmed the continent. The differences would be in the terrain for example new villages that he is not familiar of, man made rivers or any other thing.
A note to be taken, in game timeline, Sohrab is different from the main verse Sohrab because unlike the main Sohrab, his counterpart did not meet Avatar (if assuming that the most agreed on age for avatar is 17/18 ish, thus does not fit Sohrab’s story) therefore, he does not have that drive to go out of his village to explore.
Again, Avatars who are not over 20s will be treated as avatars from the parallel time he stumbled on when he passed the Outrealm gate exploring the land. If you wish to have your Avatar as Sohrab’s mentor, please let me know so I can arrange it as that or Sohrab will never treat anyone the same as the people he met in his own world. He might have met few people on his travel from the Shepherds but will NOT act the same he does with the actual Awakening timeline people. If this is confusing, please contact me so I can hopefully expand this for you.
COMBAT SECTION.
Status:
As for combat, Sohrab was about average (and less at some aspects) in everything. He was not that good at sword or hand in hand combat, to be honest, he was not that interested in fighting at all, unlike the other boys of his age. He always valued a safer option which is to stay away from any fight as possible. Mind you, he knows enough to defend himself and that is just good for him.
Sohrab wished to be different, not settling with a sword, a bow, a lance or even a tome, he wanted to have something different from the rest. Perhaps due to his upbringing, he always felt the need to be unique than the others, or how the society treated him as being a unique creature–a half.
In all honesty, it baffled him how his origin confuses people. What a nationality has to do with loving someone and building a family together? He always felt their gaze on him, Their high expectations of him turning into an exceptional being, Though, this ‘exceptional being’ is a just mere human like them so a way to tick him off was the mention of his identity as half and how strange it is and whether it made him any different from the rest.
To continue on the combat talk, Sohrab looked for something of his to call, his own way of fighting. His efforts did not fruit until Avatar left. Out of frustration, Sohrab left the village and stayed till the evening wandering about until he came back to visit the room that Avatar was living in. The books that they had were left in the bookcase so he spent the evening looking at every book, every paper, every document that the Avatar had left. He did not know why they left so much. In his search, there were excerpts about the ancient continent–Valentia and its culture. A word stuck him unfamiliar–Alchemy. This ‘magic’ as he assumed, was used to craft things, namely the Gold Mark, a rare currency back in the day. It piqued his interest that there is less information about this “Alchemy” when it seems like an important thing.
From that day, and the search of what Alchemy is was Sohrab’s goal. Sohrab was 16 and he spent three years in searching for this Alchemy and mastering some of its basic skills. It was not easy but he had to leave the house, leave the village, leave this closed space to a broader one. In a way, he was following his passion like what his own father did. His research guided him to follow after his potential wife. Sohrab’s passion is to find more about Alchemy.
Moreover, to maintain a stable form of his sword(or any other weapon he links to his body), Sohrab has to provide nutrition especially if it gets broken or dull; by eating some of the material that he used to create it; thus why he carries a small pouch of grinded materials that he sprinkles on his food whenever he can. He dislikes someone seeing him do that so if he was in a vicinity of others he would either refrain or pick another place with fewer people.
Sohrab cannot link more than one weapon at his current abilities but as he levels up and grows he can add more weapons but that means more stress on his body and of course the intake of materials into his body will increase and this will definitely cause health problem like poisoning. He is also researching another way to replace the whole intaking the material in to be able to summon weapons.
Despite wanting to be different, he had to have a weapon at his disposal to fight when it’s needed and the only thing that will not strain his body when summoned is a sword for it does not require much material than a lance or an axe (& intake wise.) Sohrab knows how to fend himself but not much a master of the weapon and when someone tells him points out his flaws (e.g. posture, handle, moves,) he does not give that much thought to it because he still dislikes using it. A paradox.
His trump card in any fight is his quick on spot forged throwing poisoned daggers. He can create them fast and utilize them when needed. His weakness aside not being a strong or skilled fighter, his reservoir of material. If he was pushed into a long battle, this could lead to draining all his material that he carries with him for alchemy. Rendering him into a close combat again with either his sword or fist depend on the situation. However, being trained by Avatar, it will take more than a provoke or a taunt to get him into this situation because he will always value the option of running away.
Perhaps with good persuasion, Sohrab might consider training more but for now, he will remain as far as he can be from any training ground. To be honest, he is a bit scared of enabling himself more power, he will lose sight of his goal which is learning, not fighting, which is why he refuses to get any training. However, he won’t talk about this to anyone whilst becomes another weakness. He’ll simply brush it as not good with physical training.
Because of his lack of proper training, his stamina is not all that good. His moves can be a bit rusty at times but when push comes to the shove, he will force his body to overcome the limits he had set for himself.
A note to address, Sohrab can use any tome if he had enough time reading it because again his first class was Dark Mage, meaning he can use any tome that this class allows but he does not use tomes because he remembers Avatar using them with swords, thus his pride does not allow him to copy his master, especially he is a person values being unique (subconsciously that is) but if he was in a situation where he must use one to save himself or someone, he will surprise you.
APPEARANCE.
Sohrab stands tall 5’7, dark brown messy hair, green eyes that turn to golden when he is synthesizing or summoning his sword. his skin tone leans to a ylissean thus why he can pass as one with no trouble. He wears a black cape, brown undershirt, green pants, brown just below the knee boots. Honestly, he changes his clothes colors when he sees fit especially if he wants to blend around, thanks to Alchemy. Belts around his waist that holds the pouches that contain the materials he gathers. A hidden knife in his left boot in case he was cornered in a fight with no chance to use alchemy or his supply ran out.
PERSONALITY.
Sohrab is the guy who you can miss if he did not speak up. For him, he rather stays in the background because it is less of a hassle. This does not mean he is grumpy or a gloomy person, it’s just a way to observe and wait for the good chance to butt in. Being in the background allows him to perceive better than being in the forefront. It often leaves him perplexed to certain reactions, especially these oddballs (the extreme people or the overall weirdos.)
The Alchemist is honest, more like blunt when needed. Though, as any human, he often falls short to lie at some points. Sohrab is lazy who tends to skip training or any physical activity; not a big fan of moving when it is not necessary. He prefers to be in a quiet place to synthesis in peace.
Dabbling in magic and alchemy, it requires a certain degree of level-headedness to be able to craft and forge things. Sohrab can be calm but when someone pushes the right button he is certainly someone you do not want to anger. Sohrab can hold a grudge against someone but in the end, he will let it go because as he dislikes overtaxing his body, he dislikes overtaxing his mind over useless emotions such as grudge.
SKILLS.
Alchemy (to some extent), observing(body language and manner of speech), sewing (from his mother), tutoring (from his father), haggling and trade skills (from Duncan and the merchants), decent sword fight, decent one on one combat, tracking, high magic resistance, camping and laziness.

How to Start a Plumbing Business
Thus, you wish to initiate a plumbing company. This might be a great choice, or, it might be the worst idea . Beginning a plumbing company, or any company actually, involves a specific quantity of organized thinking to place everything set up, and making certain you have thought of everything. By following this technique preparation procedure, you'll have covered all of the essential facets of getting your preparation and plan in the ideal location, which is likely to produce the beginning of your plumbing company several 450% more effective.
The Strategy Required to Start Any Business
Beginning a plumbing company, a business name, or even a high tech business all needs the exact same standard thinking approach. To recall it best, utilize the EASI acronym. In cases like this, E stands for emotionA for attaining a triumph, S for easy and easy and I for your execution.
Everybody wanting to begin a company ought to bear in mind it is likely to involve lots of struggles, hardships, anxiety, stress, and a large number of different troubles. The practice of starting a company has frequently been likened to leaping off a cliff, also constructing an aeroplane on down the road. It'll mean sleepless nights, long hours along with the unwavering support of friends and family around you. That is true, and also the reason so many startup companies fail.
Step one, therefore, will be to inspect the motives which you wish to initiate the company in the first location. This entails an evaluation of the feelings, or feeling supporting the rationale of beginning your own plumbing company. Everybody will have their own motives for wanting to begin their organization. It could possibly be as a last resort since they are not able to find employment within the area, it can be that they hate having a supervisor, it might be that they would like to become exceedingly wealthy. No matter the reason, it's very important that the proprietors of the company, in case there are greater than you, are attentive to the potency of the feelings concerning the enterprise. This will ascertain the ability of their inspiration, the actual forces behind the enterprise, also, with the assistance of a skilled adviser, let the potential small business owners to ascertain whether their boat will endure the storms around the sea, or when there has to be some extra psychological management included.
The next thing speaks to this vision, or purpose of this organisation. A potential plumbing firm might have as its aim to be a loss leader and so a taxation write-off. It could possibly be that attaining a triumph with the company would be inherited survival, or placing kids through college. In any event, all of the owners will need to be capable, collaboratively, to comprehend what the aim is and to get a joint vision of this company which everybody can purchase into. With this common vision, any following preparation and strategizing will finally be sporadic, with everybody involved with different targets and goals, rather than pulling together in the ideal direction.
Keep Things Simple and Straightforward
It doesn't require any actual ability to make matters more complicated. The actual genius in almost any circumstance is to make things simpler. The line of thinking will be propagated by most of the leading entrepreneurs like Richard Branson, Bill Gates, along with Elon Musk. Albert Einstein frequently utilized to state if you could not describe something to some six-year-old, you did not know it yourself. In light of the strategic thinking, another bit of information is to maintain all of your strategies and plans easy and simple. Decide on a target that everybody involved, each of the stakeholders, can get into. See where you're, and plan a means to reach this goal which all concerned will comprehend, love, and take possession of.
The last step in assembling a brand new plumbing company is to execute the plan. With no rigorous implementation plan and strategy, all of the goal-setting and private evaluation of company motivation and vision will become a remote desire. Implementation programs fall into five primary categories; general company plan, financial planning, human resources and communications, sales and promotion, and job administration. All companies need to have the ability to conduct preparation with regard to those five areas of company experience so as to be prosperous.
Implementing Your Plumbing Business Strategy
The initial step in starting the strategy within each of the five businesses that require examination would be to finish a genuine, functional, and real small business program. Having gone through the first strategic thinking procedure as outlined previously, compiling a general company plan should be comparatively straightforward. But failing to devote enough time establishing a company strategy to the plan will signify that the company is also very likely to fail, since among those well-known things in determining commercial success is that over 80% of effective companies have decided their general plan in detail, coordinated the company program, become every facet of the company strategy in detail, and also replicate this tactical thinking process frequently among all of the stakeholders.
When the business plan was published in detail, together with all the crucial inputs being not just realistic but pragmatic also, then the comprehensive considerations in every one of the five company aspects can start. This should dovetail with the company program, but expand to the specifics just mentioned in the strategy to some degree. In the instance of a plumbing company since we're contemplating here, a few of the parameters at those five characteristics of this company is going to be analyzed. In an effort to confuse any potential plumbing pros, but instead in an effort to illustrate the significance of this strategic thinking procedure, and also the explanations for why it ought to be run in detail, and also utilising successful and skilled small business consultants won't just raise the odds of succeeding, but likely save significant money in the medium to long duration.
Five Business Areas to Conduct Planning
These business areas, as related to a plumbing company, are approach, fiscal, sales and advertising, human resources and communications, and more jobs. In general strategy was discussed in some detail, and also after the above directions will ensure success in this aspect.
The fiscal planning facet when beginning a plumbing company is of critical significance. A comprehensive comprehension of prospective earnings, and expenses associated with the conducting of the company have to be analyzed. These are clearly tied in the general plan, the technical facets of a plumbing company will have to get added from the stakeholders, with their expertise and understanding of this area. Office assumptions, the upkeep of inventory and supplies, transportation, and also the capability to endure until the earnings exceeds the prices has to be determined. All possible financial factors, for example stakeholder inputsignal, the chance of producing loans and fiscal aid and getting upfront payments all have to be planned in fantastic detail.
Revenue of a plumbing company is directly associated with the quantity of work undertaken as well as the fees levied with this job. In a general sense, the quantity of income should exceed the expenses of the company, along with the goal of any sales and advertising program would be to make certain this can be, in actuality, the situation. With the debut of social networking and the world wide web, the paths available to advertise a company have improved exponentially. The beginning point for any pipes firm, like every service related company, would be to determine as much detail as you can that the individuals are who will be providing the company with earnings. These folks, as a whole, are known as the purchasing character of the business enterprise. A plumbing firm might, for example, decide to keep little and supply after-hours services to relatives members and friends, or it might target large company jobs and tenders. Or something in between. The greater any potential plumbing organisation knows the behavior, for example, needs, desires, and goals of the potential economy the better they will cherish. The illustration here is that a plumber that caters to the lower end of their financial marketplace would utilize more print press and posters to promote the company, even though a plumber catering into a upper market section may choose to utilize social networking more because wealthier folks have smartphones and are accessible using electronic platforms.
Human communications and resources demands detailed preparation on its own also. Based upon the construction of their plumbing business, and their distinctive selling points, there might be a customer support section demanded, or a promotion department if that really is the deciding factor of attaining business. Planning and aligning the business consequently will be contingent on the general goals and vision, however will have to choose the whole small business plan under account.
Plumbing services normally will call for onsite surgeries and the successful management of those operations as individual jobs. Fantastic project management is vital to any service business and also the fundamental essentials of project management will be crucial. Yet more, however, job management shouldn't be regarded as a complicated and challenging problem, but instead a simplified and simple method of coping, and communication with the stakeholders involved with each undertaking.
The Required Starting Blocks of a Plumbing Business
These measures, as outlined previously, if performed entirely and economically, with all the companies core vision in your mind and also a positive collaborative mindset at the beginning point, will be sure that the company has a greater than 80% probability of succeeding. However, as mentioned a lot of times in this discussion bit, this isn't a 5-minute workout. This is a comprehensive strategic thinking process which will require commitment and honesty. There are particular things, so, that needs to be taken into account before embarking on the plan procedure.
The first is the audit of their emotional intelligence of their stakeholders from the plumbing industry. Like every service business, plumbing entails hard work and even onsite work in which things can easily fail. A top emotional intelligence score among the company owners would be the best possible indication of succeeding. Emotional intelligence entails having the ability to deal and handle the pressures and challenges entailed, it also means training your brain to discover solutions in the middle of turmoil occurring all around you, and also means having the capability to become a successful leadership team that will steer a company through uncertain times. On the flip side, it doesn't mean somebody who succumbs to the consequences of anger or vindictiveness. Emotional intelligence may be learned and improved upon, so that it surely can be acquired, however it's crucial that this caliber be determined before beginning any business enterprise.
Second, there has to be an understanding that knowledge is essential. The prediction for a baker who wakes up one morning and finds that a plumber friend which makes a great deal of cash then decides to begin a plumbing company is sadly not too great. Pipes, so as to be prosperous, has to be accomplished nicely. In an extremely competitive industry environment such because there is now all around the world, any company should really be great at their endeavor to become prosperous. It's because of this it is a necessity of starting a plumbing firm the stakeholders in the very least have access to high excellent plumbing services. This includes understanding all facets of the job, the industry possible, along with the success rates of the contest. With this core understanding, however great the strategizing process and the programs that come from it, there's absolutely not any prospect of succeeding.
