"My Diploma doesn't seem to work" was written by a recent high school grad who is passionate about helping others see through an established system and find their greater potential. What you will get out of reading this book is a shifted perspective and an abundance of self-awareness of the systematic structure that every student is obligated to go through. Whether the student becomes successful outside of school, comes down to how well they are self-aware of their surroundings and environment. Concepts that the educational curriculum leaves out will be addressed in the book through a series of vignettes and analysis along with recommendations for further knowledge. High school education is a subject that should no longer be looked over, by rather understanding there is a hole in the system. And the first step in solving a problem is realizing there is a problem.
The authors provide the new teacher with guidance and advice that is full of encouragement, humor, and practical ideas, all based on real first-year experiences.
Do you dream of a future where you are rich, and you didn’t have to worry about money?
You cannot be rich, at least not with your job as a nurse. Everyone tells you this, and you have gradually come to believe that maybe getting wealthy has been preserved for people in other careers – with bigger paychecks.
It doesn’t help that there are no enough role models around you or even in the world to show you that it’s possible.
So, you have settled into the common lifestyle, living from paycheck to paycheck, and getting into debt to survive in between them, getting by, just like everyone else.
Does this sound like a place you are in?
If you have answered yes, then this book has been written to help you get out of that status quo that many of us get trapped in.
The fact that you are here means that you have a desire to do better, and you want to change the narrative.
Are you wondering…
How can I become rich, when all I have is my paycheck?
How can I save, when my paycheck is barely enough to cover my needs?
Can I handle investment while I work full time as a nurse?
How do I manage my money better?
How do I make my money work for me, so I don’t work for money my entire life?
If you have these and other related questions, I have the answers for you in this book. In my career as a nurse, I have faced circumstances that may be similar to yours.
I have made money mistakes common among us that landed me in a financial crisis that I was lucky to get through. During that period, I learned valuable lessons that imparted financial wisdom in me that I share with you.
We are conditioned to think that wealth has everything to do with how much we get paid and how much time we invest. But things have changed.
Now, it’s about what financial decisions you make and how smartly you can handle and invest your money. You will learn to do all that in this book! This is how it is possible to become a rich nurse.

In Diller Scofidio + Renfro: Architecture after Images, Edward Dimendberg offers the first comprehensive treatment of one of the most imaginative contemporary design studios. Since founding their practice in 1979, Elizabeth Diller and Ricardo Scofidio have integrated architecture, urban design, media art, and the performing arts in a dazzling array of projects, which include performances, art installations, and books, in addition to buildings and public spaces. At the center of this work is a fascination with vision and a commitment to questioning the certainty and security long associated with architecture. Dimendberg provides an extensive overview of these concerns and the history of the studio, revealing how principals Elizabeth Diller, Ricardo Scofidio, and Charles Renfro continue to expand the definition of architecture, question the nature of space and vision in contemporary culture, and produce work that is endlessly surprising and rewarding, from New York’s High Line to Blur, an artificial cloud, and Facsimile, a video screen that moves around a building facade. Dimendberg also explores the relation of work by DS+R to that by earlier modernists such as Marcel Duchamp and John Hejduk. He reveals how the fascination of the architects with evolving forms of media, technology, and building materials has produced works that unsettle distinctions among architecture and other media. Based on interviews with the architects, their clients, and collaborators as well as unprecedented access to unpublished documents, sketchbook entries, and archival records, Diller Scofidio + Renfro is the most thorough consideration of DS+R in any language. Illustrated with many previously unpublished renderings in addition to photos from significant contemporary photographers, this book is an essential study of one of the most significant and creative architecture and design studios working today.
