Editor: Special effects have always interested you, and from your watching of the Nostalgia Critic you know that the editors have a hand in the process, but they also stitch the cuts  together, and you figured you could fancy yourself the movie equivalent of Frankenstein (the monster is called Frankenstein's Monster, Frankenstein is the doctor). So what to look at?

Well, money is a pretty big factor, you may be a professional chainsaw-bear tamer, but if you aren't making any money you won't even be able to pay the medical bills. $51,300 isn't bad, but what about Hollywood? California? 81,800 is pretty nice, still not the six digits you were hoping for, but oh well, you could always console yourself with some of the other possible benefits of the job. Go to Editor.

TTE: Desktop Computers? Hey, Diablo 3 is currently your main source of income, this doesn't seem like too big of a stretch, and the Music Editing Software sounds nice, autotune, as much as you hate it, does admittedly make the Black-Eyed Peas tolerable, quite the feat if you do say so yourself. Go to Editor.

KSAE: You know the English Language, and stalked an artist once, so you think you have a handle on the whole Fine Arts thing, but listening and thinking? You don't know, this career looks suspiciously like work, something that you have an almost religious objection to. LEG IT! Go to Editor.

WG: Awwwwwwwwww yeah, it's all about the money. Graphic Designers don't make much you see, $44,150 not bad, Maine though, woah, $28,500? That's pretty bad, you leg it straight out of that part of the page, scared by the distinct lack of six numbers. Go to Graphic.

KSAG: Fluency of Ideas, Active Listening, Writing! Those sound like things you tend to avoid, but the Near Vision and Originality somewhat appeals to your artistic side, and the sight of the word Reasoning makes you all excited ever since that Sherlock Homes marathon. Go to Graphic.

TTG: You fry your hands on a keyboard all day anyway, Notebook Computers look right up your alley, and Web Platform Dev Software sounds nice, you've been making websites since you were three. Go to Graphic.

Detonate: Ohhhhhhhh no, I can't get out of this, neither can you. Go to Start.

Connecting STEM careers, in limerick form!

We did a cluster called STEM.
We to a look at two of them.
With anthropology.
It excited me. (sort of)
Though I would rather have done some chem(istry).

My other was robotic-ism.
I got a bit of criticism.
About taking jobs.
Replacing with robs.
But I think that that's just narcissism.

So why are these two in STEM?
I think it's because they stem (like originate, it counts!)
From science the first,
and unrelated bratwurst.
With mathematics taking place for the lem(ming, a lemming is a nickname for some robots in the field of robotics, as they're dumb)

 I DID IT! YEAH!

Colors influencing other colors, typed dramatically, you'll have to take my word for it.

So I took a pseudo True Colors test, though influenced heavily by the image that I have constructed of myself, I'd say that it's still somewhat accurate.
My two main colors were green, my primary, and orange, my secondary, logical and spontaneous respectively.
These may seem in direct opposition to each other on the surface, but that's not what I have to talk about, that topic (being the one I have to talk about) is how they affect each other.
So what does orange and green together mean? A murky brown typically, but in this case it means that, though there is typically a logic behind my decisions, it's the C. Escher of logic, there is logic behind it, but that reasoning isn't typical, it has the appearance of randomness without actually being so.
Or maybe not, I'm not a psychologist, and beyond that, any personality classification test paints in very, very broad strokes, it's the subtleties that matter.

The True Colors of those I know

There are 4 True Colors, Orange for spontaneity, Blue for compassion, Green for logic and Gold for organization. So I apparently have to classify my teachers and students in some of the broadest strokes possible, and it's still not as good as Myers Briggs. First, blue, as for my teacher, I'd have to say my band director Mr. Tripp falls nicely into that category, when he's not concerned about the feelings of all of his instrumentalists (which is rare), it's because he's feeling so much emotion that the part of his mind thinking that this isn't terribly kind is being drowned out. Coincidentally, the Bluest student I can think of is in the band, a trumpeter name Breeze. She's somewhat naive, but only because of that compassion, and though she doesn't tend to get large bursts of emotion, it may be she just hides them for the benefit of those around her. And green, Mr. Aydt's pretty logical, not uptight, but he doesn't think very freeformy if that makes sense, probably not but whatever. As for a student, none that I know, they may be somebody I'm just not thinking of, but as far as I know I don' know any overly logical kids my age. I wouldn't say I have any orange teachers, same for students, most of them have mellowed out with age, and tend to ditch their spontaneity, though I don't really know most of the people my age anyway, so I could just not being seeing it.
Everett's a gold, definitely, he's peppered with the other archetypes too but he is a very structured and civic person, teacher wise, maybe Mrs. Wilson, to her, the journey is the destination, and the journeying will take place within the designated area and with footsteps to the beat of the drum, if you must rest feet shoulder-width apart and head lolling at a forty-five degree angle, take that as you will.
That's pretty much it.

Job Descriptions, Skills, and Education for Business Management and Administration, nothing special

Ah pigeonholing, a lovely practice if you're a teacher or dictator (note: this list of people that enjoy pigeonholing is mostly coincidental). So today, I've been pigeonholed, so, without further ado, writing without any emotion. So to be a Computer Programmer you need to be good at things like time management, programming(I'd say duh, but again, no emotion), number facility and system evaluation, as opposed to an energy auditor's skills, like writing, speaking, and critical thinking. As for a description of the jobs, energy auditors go to places like houses and businesses and make sure that they're not wasting electricity by looking at things like, is the insulation okay, are there any leaks in the water pump? and so on and so forth, whereas a computer programmer creates, refines and tests computer programs. And finally, education, while a computer programmer doesn't need any formal education, it is helpful, whereas an energy auditor needs to be certified through acourse, online or otherwise. That is all, bleep boop

Stylish Learning, voiced by Old Man Snitchez

(in old man voice)
When Diablo attacked the town Tristrom, I knew that my career as a kobold slayer for the city council was over! But kobolds weren't a threat anywhere  else, which means that I needed to learn something new, but unfortunately I didn't remember how I learned best.
My instructor, who smelled like a kobold and who I had a hard time... zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz ( 1 hour later) AAH! Oh yes, where was I? Right, I had a hard time not stabbing my kobold teacher, and after taking the exam (okay new guest star, um, how about Link?) ... (oh, right, uh, eh, I'll just do it)
So after taking the exam, I found that I was a fairly even mix of the three main styles of learning tactile, a hands-on sort of learner, auditory, learning by hearing, and visual, learning by seeing.
So I was given four questions about this, a) what is my style? An even mix. b) what does your style mean to you? I rather like the multi-method  result that I got as it shows that this music thing, listening, playing and writing it (the latter to varying degrees of success, all of those degrees bad) has effected my way of thinking, as previously I was an almost purely visual learner. c) How does it impact your learning? Well, I suppose it mean that I need to be more thurough with something like studying, but at the same time it should cement things in my mind more easily. d) And how might I use this information to ease my learning in high school and beyond. Honestly, I can't give an answer for that, but I suppose that's the point. The journey is the destination and all that. And to make people know I'm not really that profound, try watching Zero Punctuation.

What information I researched and why it doesn't matter to me (Human Services), with achievements

I did two careers in the cluster of Human Services, Barber and Clergy (like a pastor).
The three things that we needed to present for each was wage, education, and job description.
Let's start with wage.
(Achievement unlocked: It's all about the green)
Barbers don't make too much, about $26,000, a few thousand dollars over the poverty line for a family of four, Pastors tend to make more, around $44,000, not really a bad career.
(Achievement unlocked: Servant of the Lord salary bonus round)
But it is rather balanced, barbers don't really need any education, so they make less, and beyond that they work a much stricter set of hours, pastors, especially Catholic ones, tend to need some form of an associate's or bachelor's degree, though you could just get an online certificate.
(Achievement unlocked: FOO strategy)
(Achievement unlocked: Bizarre reference)
However, being a pastor has some fairly unpredictable hours, as being a good clergy-men means helping around your community, and individuals when they need it, spiritual, or psychological, whereas a barber's hours and roles to fulfill are fairly predictable.
(Achievement unlocked: asdfadsfasdfafsdfhdsgjsrjtiauerva)
(Achievement unlocked: incomprehensible gibberish)
(Achievement unlocked: achieving for the sake of achieving)
To be straight, seeing as I don't want to be either of these, none of this matters to me, none at all.
