When my younger brother, Ibrahim, was a toddler, he used to call me dad (instead of Eyad) and we used to laugh about it. But as we grew up, 7 years apart, this joke started to become a reality. Ibrahim copied me in every possible way, and has an unshakable faith in me. For the longest time I considered him my best friend. I took care of him, taught him, and confided in him. I care about him so much that I don’t want to disappoint him. I know he is watching my every move, so I am watching my every move. I know he is copying every word I say, so I am careful with what I say. If I ignore my work, he ignores his and if I cut corners, he follows suit. I want to be proud of him so I need to be proud of me. Last summer, I asked my father if I could help around the office. He said he has “a project” for me. I had to scan some 1000 old charts into the new electronic system.
1. He asked to remember that there were some subjects that were so important that everyone had to study them seriously.
2. He asked to make a list of my skills and interests.
3. He asked to match my interests and abilities with subjects I was going to study.
4.He told him to get key skills that employers wanted to see in their empoyees.
5. He said that If we had lots of job ideas, we had to find which qualifications we needed for each job.
6. He asked to get information about the courses that were offered by my school.
7.He said that if we couldn't choose a job right then, we shouldn't panic, but we were to find more information from books, websites and organisations.
8. He advised to discuss my choices with my relatives.
9. He advised not to be afraid of making decisions, to think of all the opportunities and see what I really wanted.
