Blog Topic 3:  Dream Job

Ok bloggers, here is a fun topic (I hope)!  Tell us about your dream job.  You could write about the job you're hoping to have soon, or a totally UNrealistic 'fun job' that you wish you could have.  What was your dream when you were a kid?  Has it changed? 

For example, for a long time my dream job has been to write for National Geographic magazine. I'd love to travel and get to see and research fascinating things.

What about you? Tell us your dream job.  I look forward to learning more about you all.

Blog Topic 2: Travel

Many of us talked about loving to travel in our first blog posts. I love to travel too, so I'm offering one of my favorite quotes from one of my favorite authors. Please blog about this quote. Share from your life experience; feel free to agree or disagree.

“Travel is fatal to prejudice, bigotry, and narrow-mindedness, and many of our people need it sorely on these accounts. Broad, wholesome, charitable views of men and things cannot be acquired by vegetating in one little corner of the earth all one’s lifetime.”

—Mark Twain in The Innocents Abroad, 1857

 

* fatal to= if a is fatal to b, then a kills b

*need it sorely on these accounts= really need it for these reasons
