My new cell phone is one-week old today. I started thinking as I patted the back of my jeans pocket to make sure it was still here. After two years of whining and complaining my two year contract was finally up and I could get my dream phone

“ What color case should I buy?” I asked Anglea politely.

“What about deep purple?” Anglea said to me while walking by the pizza parlor on Main Street.

“ No! Black and gold sparkles fits Melissa’s personality better,” as Zoe said interrupting us.

“ I wouldn't be caught dead with a sparkle cell phone case,” said Tommy, my brother.

“ Well, if Tommy is dead, the sparkles don’t really matter, right?” as I said smiling as I “zopen the door to Mattie’s Cell Phone Accessories. I am fine if Tommy is with us on our trips to town with my friends. Tommy makes very few friends because my brother is shy and I feel sorry about it.

My jaw dropped as I looked at the hundreds of different cell phone cases. A display near the cash register featured mobile socks. I picked up one with white trim, and looked closely at the design , the case never had good protection as I looked closely. If I pick up my phone from the bottom by mistake, it will fall and break.

I moved on to the mobile pouches. “ This would keep me from sitting on my phone and breaking it.” I took a moment to pat the back of my jeans again to see if it was still here.

“But the color of the case is a little plain for my looks,” I said. “ look at these phone cases on the back wall,” I said. I picked up a zebra phone striped skin, as I placed it against my face, I am so happy I love it.

“Aren’t cases supposed to protect phones?” as my brother asked. “ That one is not going to protect me much if I drop it on the cafeteria floor” as my brother continued to tell me.

“ I guess you are right,” I agreed. “ I am a little accident prone” as I continue to say.
Finally, I spotted the face plates against the left wall in the back of the store. “ Now, this is what I have been
looking for. These are stylish, but also offer protection.” Zoe smiled as I made a bee-line for the black case
gold sparkles.

“This one is perfect!” “ I'm glad you made your decision” as the shop owner Mattie said. “Come over to the cash register and I will ring you up” said the shop owner. “Can you put the new case on for me?” I asked as I pulled out my phone. One look and I immediately started to get pale. I put my hand over my heart and I fell into a chair by the window. “What this can't be?” This isn’t it.” “What’s going on?” as Anglea asked me.
“This. This isn't my new phone. It is my old phone. Tommy quick! Call mom and tell her go into my bedroom.” Tommy took out his phone and called mom. His mom quickly climbed the stairs and entered my room.
I grabbed the phone from my brother's hand. “ Mom, look at my desk. I know I left it right there. What do you mean it isn't there? Look all over. Please! Look on the floor,the bed, the closet..this can't be happening to me! Thanks for looking at mom. No, I am not irresponsible. I'll find it. I promise.” I hung up the phone as I started to turn to my friends.
“Someone stole my phone!” I shouted

“Don’t look at me,” Zoe said. “I just got a new one for christmas.

“It wasn't me” as Anglea said. “I have never even been in your bedroom.”

I had seen my brother look at the floor.” I wasn't happy when you got the new phone instead of me, but I would never steal from you.” as I was hearing my brother say in a low voice.
“ I know who took the phone,” I shouted. “You better hand it over, right now.” as i was talking to tommy thinking it is him.

1 Mahatma Gandhi said, "The future depends on what you do today." 2 It's never too early for a young person to take steps toward achieving career goals. 3 To go out and finding that first job takes courage. 4 Moreover, it takes alot of commitment and responsibility to keep one. 5 Having a part-time job, highschool students, if they can get one for several reasons, greatly benefit.

6 A part-time job can be especially beneficial if the job is in the student's field of interest or preference. 7 If students are clueless about they're talents or interests, their are ways to find these out. 8 Online career tests match a person's skills and abilities to particular job groups indeed very effectively. 9 For example, some people do not like interacting with the public all day. 10 On the other hand, some people like constant social interaction or work that is very challenging. 11 They might not be happy working alone or doing repetitive work or computer work. 12 Knowing about oneself helps a person choose a job and remain satisfied with the work. 13 Of course, when first starting out, a student may have to settle for any kind of job experience first. 14 A first job is a trial period so very important. 15 If done successfully, it can become a recommendation for a better job.

16 Once a person chooses a career path; then, every job or related work opportunity can lead to future opportunities. 17 Additionally, most career counselors say everyone needs at least a plan A and plan B. 18 Successful people are multitalented and diverse in skills and education. 19 This is important so people can adapt to the constantly changing employment environment. 20 However, even a well written resumé listing twentytwo different jobs in a lifetime will not go over well with a prospective employer. 21 A resumé needs to show a person faithful to one or two jobs or career fields for at least five years or more for that person to be excepted for a senior position. 22 Finding new jobs and to change to several jobs every year will adversely affect a person's credibility even with a very vital college degree listed on that application. 23 Even so, a faithful employee of a company should always be adding new skills, taking courses, and improving oneself. 24 Many jobs are becoming obsolete as technology, laws, and the needs of our culture change.
