Expectation!
A expectation that I could think of that my parents has for me is to achieve in life, go to college and joined or be a crime Secene Investigation(CSI). My parents like anything that has to do with crime, but however I don't see myself in a position of trying to find out who the killer is. Eventhough, you get paid good I still wouldn't do it because I wouldn't enjoy it and I wouldn't be the person for this kind of job.
My plans are to become a computer enginnering,my parents think thats a very good carrer, however, my dad thinks that i would be better off being in the CSI. I enjoy using computers, sometimes I struggle in doing something using my computer, but I make a endeavor, in trying to do what i can't. Sometimes I even help my dad when he is not able to do use the computer. Since the day I was little I will always look at my dad using the computer and look at what he was doing. No one ever taught me anythin of computers, I learned everything that I know by watching and by learning from my own mistakes. My dad also knows that I will also be able to achieve in life having this as my job.
My parents respect the idea that I want to become a computer engineeing, but they think that being in the CSI is a better job. At least they respect the idea that I'm not indicated or the person for the CSI. Being in the CSI is really hard and it takes alot of work getting the job and you have to be able to see blood and I know I wouldn't be.

Quote: by: Dalai amma
"If you want others to be happy practice compassion. If you want to be happy, pratice compassion "
- Dalai amma, Tibetan Buddhist monk
Dalai amma, Tibetan buddhist monk once said ' in order to be happy pratice the feeling of caring for others or understanding . I think this quote means that when you show someone compassion u make your self be happy and others show compassion to you as well. Also showing comnpassion to other it shows that your a nice person and makes people be nice to you. Without happiness your life would be nothing.
I agree but disagree with this quote because many people need compassion in life , and i think when you care for other this make the person feel happy and makes u feel happy also. It makes you get this feeling that you did something good. Hoever sometimes we can't see this compassion in people or in you self. I think love is similar to compassion because they use love is someone you care about and compassion you care about them and understand them. I also disagree because when you show a lot of compassion, it makes you look like your a very nice person. People might think you so to nice and take advantage of you .
This quote makes me look back, and think about when I was nice people started to show compassion back. However, I didn't show a lot of compassion or tried to be really nice because then people take advantage of you.
This quote also compares to Miss lottie and her plants she started to show a lot of compassion to her flowers and people started to get advantage of her .???
