Can you believe I have ten million dollars? Yeah, me neither. Walking down the block one day I just happen to come across a dog. Looking at its collar, I figured out who the owner was and decided to do my good deed of the day by bringing it home. To my surprise the dog was very rare and a prize winner belonging to a very wealthy family. There is a reward for this dog I soon found out from the house keeper who answered the door. She told me to hold on and wait till the owner could pay me. To my delight the owner handed me a check in an envelope. This was more than I expected.

So with that I changed my curriculum. I wanted to be a part-time mechanic at a local auto shop. That is all I decided I wanted to do as far as education.
