Letter to me.

Dear Me,
     Within the next couple years you will be entering the work force in your chosen career path. After spending 3-4 years in college, hopefully you will have your Associates in business and culinary. Since your ultimate goal is opening a bakery, you will need three very important skills. The first skill will be working hard. Opening a bakery will be hard, but keeping it open and successful will be even harder. No matter what, you have to work as hard as possible to make sure that you are completely successful. The other skill that you will need is money smarts. Running a bakery will cost a lot of money. If I spend my money right and make sure that I do everything as far as my economic standing right I will be able to keep my bakery. I will have to bring in a lot of revenue to keep my bakery. The last skill I will need is leadership skills. To be a good employer and to make it in the food industry I have to have good leadership skills. So, future me, be hardworking, smart with your money, and a good leader. 
Love,
Bianca

Daylight Savings

     Daylight Savings should no longer be observed in the modern world. There is a lot of evidence that proves that it is not only ineffective for its original purpose, but harmful. The complexity, economic effects, and effects on health are all reasons that daylight savings isn't beneficial. Day lights savings is far too complex. The rules and dates have to be changed in it and makes everyone on farther apart time zones. Also, it makes African, Asian, Hawaiian, and Arizonan time zones more confusing so they don't follow it. The economic effects of DST is also a huge problem. The USA lost about $434,000,000 in 2010 because of cyber loafing and medical bills from the health effects from DST. That leads to the third reason that DST is not beneficial, health effects. Sleep deprivation, heart attacks, and increases in suicide rates are all negative health effects from DST. This is why I don't think that DST is effective or beneficial in the modern time.
