My intended major connects with my skill set and career goals in different ways. Some of my skills that go hand in hand with my major, are I’m hardworking, caring, and dedicated to making kids feel as though the can be anything they want to be. This goes with my career goals because I intend to work with Walt Disney World and also with an organization called Give Kids the World, which involves working with kids who have terminal disease, the organizations is sort of like the Make A Wish Foundation.
Working with Disney World I know I’m going to have to always have an upbeat attitude and smile consistently, even when my face hurts. And I believe I will do well with that since it is, in a way, a job where you are constantly on stage. Since I am current in a performing sport where not only do I represent the University of Delaware, but I am to perform the show we were given for that season.
For Give Kids the World, I imagine I will be working closely with kids and their families, which I’m sure my intended major will help me acquire the skills for how I should talk to them and interact with them. Although my major does not teach me how to work in a medical setting, Give Kids the World is not all medical. It is a fun place for kids who have terminal disease to enjoy life the way it is suppose to be enjoyed.
