Student Success Statement 

Physical Fitness 

"Physical fitness is not only one of the most important keys is a healthy body, it is the basis of dynamic and creative intellectual activity. The relationship between the soundness of the body and the activities of the mind is subtle and complex. Much is not yet understood. But we do know what the Greeks knew:that intelligence and skill can only function only the peak of their capacity when the body is healthy and strong."

John F. Kennedy 

Reflection: What I think this quote is trying to say is that we need to do physical fitness so that our bodies stay healthy and if we do that we will have dynamic and creative intellectual activity.

They also find and treat skin conditions such as acne, dandruff, moles, skin cancer, athlete’s foot, and psoriasis. They can also execute skin surgeries to improve appearance and help prevent diseases or the conditions of the skin. They also conduct clinical research and diagnostic tests. These along many more that dermatologists have to do.

Salary: The annual average salary for a dermatologist is $307,726

Education: To become a dermatologist takes about 12 years of training and education. You have to have a pre-medical degree, a medical degree, and you have to go to training.

Reflection: I don’t think I would like to be a dermatologist. I think this not because I don’t want to enter a medical field, but because I wouldn’t like to see the diseases on the skin. I hate seeing infections and cuts on my body so I don’t think I would be happy examining others people skin.  Also it is a really long career something that I wouldn’t do. 

Thanksgiving and Thanksgiving Day

Thanksgiving and Thanksgiving Day

Thanksgiving is a holiday that is celebrated in the U.S every fourth Thursday of November. President Abraham Lincoln made it an official federal holiday in 1863. The first thanksgiving was celebrated by the early pilgrims after their first harvest in the North America. Also people say that thanksgiving was a day when all the members of the community give thanks to god for common purposes. Even though I never celebrated thanksgiving, I have a lot of things I’m thankful of and I don’t just use one day to express them. I’m thankful to God because he has given us life every day, thankful for food, thankful my family isn’t separate by divorce or death, thankful that have friends who are like my brothers and sisters, thankful for having the necessities I need, thankful for the teachers who care, thankful that I’m not into drugs or getting pregnant,  thankful to the people around me because some are kind and generous, thankful that even though one person might not want listen there is another one just waiting to do that, thankful for parents that really care for me, thankful for sibling that even though we might fight we still love each other, and thankful that I am still alive to say that I’m thankful. 

Act of Kindness

Act Of Kindness 

                         In the video we just saw in my new media class, it showed a little boy named Ian at a Diamondback's game. I saw that one of the players threw a ball to the stands and Ian was able to catch it.  He looked happy to receive it but nobody could have imagined what he had done next. Upon catching the ball, Ian saw that there was another boy that wanted to catch it as well. Since he didn't, he felt sad. Ian saw this and knew that the kind thing to do was to give the other boy the ball. Even the announcers were shocked. In return, Ian was called up by the announcers and because of this act of kindness was rewarded with a baseball bat signed by his favorite player. This shows me that we should be kind to other people not just so we could get something in return but to have the satisfaction that we made someone happy. 

Student Success Statement Joseph B. Wirthlin

Student Success Statement 

"Kindness is the essence of greatness." 

Joseph B. Wirthlin

Reflection: I think this quote is true because you can be good at something such as singing, a sport, dancing, etc., but what good is that when you are a horrible person inside . People might think that great in those things but the best way to show greatness it is by showing kindness. 

Student Success Statement Marcus Aurelius

Student Success Statement

“If it is not right do not do it;

 if it is not true do not say it.”

        Marcus Aurelius 

Reflection:This quote is true because when you know something is not right like stealing or speeding you know you are not supposed to do it. So when you are pressured or in a situation of which you know it is not right you should walk away and not do it. Also in high school and even when you’re older people gossip all the time and spread rumors and if you know it is not true or don’t know if it true you should not say it. It doesn't matter if it is really serious because they might just be lies or rumors.
