Niagara College
Assignment: Journal Entry #1
Due: September 12th, 2011
Student: 4186915 Joshua S. D`Cunha
My first journal entry will be in reference to my future goals as a student at Niagara Collage Welland Campus and my plans for success within this institution. This entry will also inform you on my endeavors and plans for the future. To begin, getting to college has not been the easiest journey for me as a visibly minor Canadian struggling within my own community to stay afloat in the vigorous storms and challenges encountered throughout life. But as a determined, focused and open-minded individual, I have managed to successfully enroll myself into the Pre Media and Design program at Niagara College, with hopes to continue my studies in the Public Relations Graduate Program.
It has always been my ultimate goal to achieve success within the Arts, Entertainment, and Recreation Industry, but to never lose focus on the developments that are much needed within the Health Care and Social Assistance Industry. Over the next two semesters my classes include, Digital Photography I, Effective Learning, History of Art, Writing for The Media, Computer Applications, Acting for Life: The Universal Language of Drama, Web Design I, Writing Strategies, Current Events – North America, Media Literacy, Beyond Acting for Life, Documentary Scriptwriting, Marketing and Advertising, Digital Photography II, as well as Web Design II. As each of these courses serves there own purpose in the Media and Design Industry, I am certain that the skills I will develop, and the knowledge and abilities I will gain and expand, will certainly prove to be an asset to my career endeavours.
I am also currently cast in a pilot show to be filmed for the 2011 Film Festival with Class Act Productions, and will be participating in Canada’s Got Talent Television Series Season 1. My goal is to achieve an 85-95 percent grade average given my ability to properly manage my time and stay organized.
It is my ultimate goal and dream to record my first solo album and through my music distribute my opinions throughout the world to establish an understanding of the socio-economic strategies to success and. It is also in my best interest to aid the economy in understanding just how it is we can stop the current inequalities and forms of exclusion to begin a new and peaceful way of social development.
I know that through knowledge alone we can make a difference in our own communities and a majority of our youth need to be introduced and educated in these types of fields to become successful and equal in our unique society. With over 2 years of experience in the Social Service Industry and a honed talent in the Arts and Entertainment Industry, I am confident in my ability to achieve my goals and become a successful and prominent member of the community. I wish to continuously grow more aware as my resume is something that continues to expand and develop, I have attached a copy of it to see the process of its development as my journal entries continue.
