Future Technology

    This semester in Computer Fundamentals i learned many different technology words, and i learned more about the computers. These new skills will help me get started to learning more about the computer, as years of learning about the computer may help me find a job easier, and it might as well help me with my records of learning.
     Technology is important for any career we would be pursuing because if we know how to use the computer we may as well have a good career, such as learning technology in doctor's office, assistant and so on. In the future I hope to learn about designing and making a website and so on.
     The academy major that i would like to follow for the rest of my high school life would be Multimedia because i would be able to know how to make my own design, take great digital pictures and so much more that can be exciting in my high school life.
