                Final Part: 1   

1.) I liked that every time we came in we had a different Student Success Statement and different Job to look up.

2.) I honestly did not have any problems in this class I honestly was glad I would have to come to this class.

3.) I think for this class you should put a little more time and allow us to go on YouTube because some videos we cannot watch.

4.) I think I did try my best in this class because I always tried to finish my work.

5.) I am reading my life planning goals notebook daily even though I am not really up to date on my Electronic Portfolio.

6.) I am committed to being a CTR person because it just doesn’t make me do bad things it also rubs off on others.

7.) I will remember to always choose the right and to treat others how I want to be treated.

                  The Ultimate Choice

Of all the choices you will ever make, one choice supersedes all others-the ultimate choice. This one choice will help you to always make correct decisions. This one choice, The Ultimate Choice, is your keystone to being the best student and person you can possibly be. This one choice will forever affect you for good more than any other choice. The ultimate choice is: To Be a CTR Person-to Always CHOOSE THE RIGHT!!!


To me being a CTR person is being a great person in general. You can say you’re a CTR person but until you do something that is CTR you are. I am glad I had this class because not only have I been doing good in school I’ve also been doing good outside of it. I have now promised to be a CTR person and will always be one.

        Student Success Statement

“Success is not an accident. Success is actually a choice. Are the habits you have today on par with the dreams you have of tomorrow?”







Alan Stein






                


To me this quote was greatly explained by Alan Stein to show what he meant. Stephen Curry was not supposed to be in the NBA he was too short and couldn’t shoot over players. So one summer him and his dad day after day tried to change his shooting form. He was a 3 star player in high school apparently but still was doing what he does in the NBA now. So this shows that letting people tell you things doesn’t mean it will happen you choose how your life will be and to be what you want be just doesn’t happen you have to practice on it.

       Student Success Statement

If there’s beauty in character, there will be harmony in the home. If there is harmony in the home, there will be order in the nation. If there is order in the nation, there will be peace in the world.

Conclusion: If there is beauty in character, there will be peace in the world.

Chinese Proverb



Reflection: To me this means that in the world one positive thing leads to another and if everyone in the world does positive things there will be no problems and everything that has happened will be fine. So having a beautiful character has many benefits and one is having a positive life.

     “The Six Pillars of Character”

The six pillars of character are Trustworthiness, Respect, Responsibility, Fairness, Caring, and Citizenship.

Trustworthiness: Dependable or reliable.                                                                  Ex: The manager has gotten his trustworthiness with the owner.

Respect: To honor or have confidence in one.                                                                Ex: I respect my elders.

Responsibility: Having a duty or having control over someone.                           Ex: It’s my responsibility to throw away the trash.

Fairness: Being free from bias or injustice.                                                                 Ex: In all fairness I only did one page of homework.

Caring: Worrying for someone else besides yourself.                                                Ex: My parents care for me.

Citizenship: The status of a person recognized under the custom or law as being a member of a state.                                                                                      Ex: To show my citizenship I vote.

  
        


Reflection: To me this means that all these things in life are nothing if you do not have these characteristics.

     Student Success Statement

“I would prefer even to fail with honor than win by cheating.”

Sophocles

 











To me this quote by Sophocles is saying that winning isn’t everything yes it is a great thing but what matters the most is how you won. Cheating on a game is like cheating on a final. Knowing you cheated is making you feel like you’re no good. But if you fail and know you tried your hardest you will know that you will have to practice harder next time you get the opportunity.

                  Memorial Day

Memorial Day is a federal holiday in the United States. Memorial Day is for remembering the people who died while serving in the country's armed forces.  The holiday is celebrated every year on the last Monday of May. For many Americans, the central event is attending one of the thousands of parades held on Memorial Day in large and small cities all over the country.

           Video Summary

Today we saw a man who did the right thing. He found an iPad with $13,000 dollars in it. Instead of keeping this he returned it to the authorities which then found the owner. He was rewarded only $60 dollars but that money went to a homeless woman and a friend of his. After his boss gave him $625 dollars for doing something like this. To me this shows that if you do the right thing something good will happen for you back.

     Student Success Statement

“The reward for doing right is mostly an internal phenomenon (self-worth), integrity, and self-esteem.”

Dr. Laura Schlessinger





                                         






To me this quote by Dr. Laura Schlessinger is saying that there’s nothing better than when you do the right thing because it just doesn’t help someone else but it helps you. It makes you feel glad and happy for what you did to help in the problem. It boosts your self-esteem and gives you integrity. I agree with her because that’s the truth it does feel good when you help someone.

           LAUSD: Student Life

Some of the services that LAUSD allows you to do are apply for are:

. Parent community service

· Post-Expulsion student services

· Student health and human services

· Pupil service

· Student medical service

· Student integration service



These services benefit me because it allows me to do something outside of school and be more active around the community. Also, it helps others because it gives them more chances for a brighter future. I will use parent community service to get my parents involved even more for our community, and also Student medical service because since I go to H.P.I.A.M this will help me learn more about the medical field.

              Video Summary

I think that Renee did I nice thing even though Eric took two people’s lives. To me what Renee did was nice of her because even though he took her daughter’s life and her daughters friends she forgave him. This was probably hard for her because she probably had a lot of hate towards him for him drunk driving and killing them but she somehow learned how to forgive. Also, now that Eric is out he has traveled to high schools to talk about this sad story with Renee. You might say why but it’s a good reason she’s showing them that you can forgive anybody no matter what happened.

     Student Success Statement

“When a deep injury is done us, we never recover until we forgive.”

Alan Paton







                                        









Reflection: To me this quote by Alan Paton is saying that if anything happens the best thing to do is not hold a grudge but forgives the person. Yes they put you in a bad place or something bad happens but it doesn’t stay there forever and why should your anger stay there. So what he is trying to say is forgiving isn’t everything but it’s a step to getting better. An example could be my sister losing my phone and me forgiving her because she would buy me a new one.

     Student Success Statement

                “Dare to stand alone.”

                    Thomas S. Monson

                                                                     









Reflection: To me this quote by Thomas S. Monson is saying that you should choose the right thing in any situation even if you are the only one. You can either follow the person or be the leader. What he is saying is to be the leader because as you get older you are going to have to make your own choices no matter what the problem is.

   University Of Southern California

To get into USC there is no minimum requirement or absolute estimate for grades, class rank or test scores.USC evaluates prospective students through an individualized and comprehensive process. They also individual talents, circumstances and opportunities vary greatly, so no specific curriculum is prescribed or required. Some classes to take in high school to go into USC are: Four years of English (composition and literature).Two years of foreign language. Three years of mathematics (algebra, geometry, algebra II, trigonometry, or calculus).Two years of natural science (e.g., biology, chemistry, physics).Two years of social sciences (e.g., U.S. history, government, economics, geography).Three years of additional courses in subjects above or academic electives (such as computer science, art, music, speech).







                   



 


Reflection: I would like to go to USC because since I was small I’ve always been interested in it because of the sports programs. But, as I have gotten older I want to go there for both but especially for my education. I say this because growing up I thought it was easy to get into a college but as I have learned it is earned. Hopefully when I graduate high school I will be lucky enough to go there and live my dream from my childhood.

“In any moment of decision, the best thing you can do is the right thing.”

Theodore Roosevelt

 











This quote by Theodore Roosevelt is saying that no matter what the situation is you should always do the right thing. Yes saying the right thing might not be the best decision but doing the wrong thing makes the problem even worse. Also, he’s saying that your decisions should always be right even because what would you do if someone did the wrong thing to you.

Life Planning Goals Progress Report

In my life planning goals notebook I have about 128 goals. I have accomplished 58 of my goals. One of my favorite goals or goal that I am glad I achieved was number 42. I say this because that goal was about my last interdisciplinary project and it said I wanted to get a good grade on it which I did. I do read my goals mostly every day and I am happy that I have gotten more than 100 goals. Also, I plan on achieving more goals and writing more down.

I would to be a Medical Surveillance Technician because they don’t make as much money and yes they detect hazards but this job doesn’t interest me. Honestly they do help out a lot but this doesn’t get my attention and I would want to do something more interesting.

       Video Summary

Honestly I think that doctor Bob is a great person. This is a masterpiece because of how he treats his patients. There not even his patients he takes them in as if they were his family and wants them to feel better no matter what the problem is. You can say he is a great doctor because he isn’t in this job for the money he’s in it to do his job and do it to his full capabilities. Doctor Bob doesn’t have the best house but to him having his patients feel better is more important. He gives them checks for their medicine and therapy lessons. I think that he’s a great man or doctor for doing this because some doctors wouldn’t give their money to their patients or treat them the way he does. I can say that doctor Bob is one of the best doctors or thee best doctor yet.

     Student Success Statement

“Make each day your masterpiece. You have to apply yourself each day to become a little better, and over a period of time you become a lot better.”

John Wooden

 

                      





In this quote by John Wooden he is saying live life to the fullest and to the greatest of your abilities. Also, that this shouldn’t only be in basketball it should be in your everyday lifestyle. Being the best or trying to be the best takes time and patience and effort. So this quote tells me to always stay focused on what matters the most.

Also, I wouldn’t because I would like to get into a career besides medical education requirements. Yes it is for a good cause but I would like to not be a part of it.

             Video Summary

 To me the inspirational video we saw was not just a person’s characteristic. It was sports man ship which is always great in any sport. In the video Sara had finally hit her 1st home run in her career but had sadly torn her ACL. But that day things had changed because Mallory and Liz from the opposing team had stepped up that day and walked her around the bases. This shows that helping someone is great in general for a great cause. Yes Sara sadly couldn’t play anymore but that day was a day to remember because of what had happened. One problem cannot stop you just like Sara messing up her ACL it motivates you and affects others in a positive way.


       Student Success Statement

“It’s a great moment when someone has character to step up and do the right thing at the right time.”


                                 Pam Knox

 

 


To me this quote by Pam Knox is saying that timing in life is one of the best things. Some people have a great timing in life or in other words being somewhere at the right time. It can be for any reason; big or small it doesn’t matter. Also timing can affect you some ways like not being there for someone who is in need of care.

Also, they are very religious because they wanted to treat the Earth and all the dwells with therein with respect, and they wanted to remain close with the Great Spirit.

     Student Success Statement

                “A promise must never be broken.”

                       Alexander Hamilton










I think that this quote by Alexander Hamilton is very important because of the word promise. To promise is to give someone your trust or there trust. Also, being honest or trustworthy because promising someone something is like saying you will never do anything that will break the promise up or affect it. Some examples is like promising your mom you will throw out the trash or wake up early to walk your dogs.

             Medical Assistant

Duties and Responsibilities: A medical assistant is there to help or support the work of physicians and other health professionals, usually in a clinic setting. Medical assistants can become certified through an accredited program usually offered through a junior or community college. They also take care of medical work and give injections or medicine.


Salary: $21,000-$37,000 a year or $12-$15 an hour


Education:  The minimum education for a medical assistant is a high school diploma. However, some states require training for those who do clinical work, and some employers prefer assistants with training or certification.



 








Reflection: I would not like to be a Medical Assistant because if I would ever go to the medical field I would like to be the doctor. Yes it would take more time but it would be worth it in the future.

    Student Success Statement

“My basic principle is that you don’t make decisions because they are easy; you don’t make them because they are cheap; you don’t make them because they are popular; you make them because they’re right.”

Theodore Hesburgh


 












This quote by Theodore Hesburgh is saying that all the choices you make are always thought through. You don’t do things because you don’t care you do them because in your brain you’ve processed that it can either do something good or bad. But in this case it’s always best to do right not wrong. Doing wrong can lead to people getting hurt for poor decision making.

     Student Success Statement

“It is our duty to concentrate to make popular that which is sound and good, and unpopular that which is unsound (not good).”

By Joseph Smith

 

 

 

 

 




Reflection: This quote by Joseph Smith is saying that we must concentrate on all the good things or positive things in our life. We should not concentrate on the things that are unsound or not good or negative in our daily life style only the positive. For example people asking you if you want to do drugs is being unsound or not good, Someone who asks you if you would like to study for a test you have is sound and good because you are doing something positive that will help with something else in your life.

             Home Health Aide

Duties and Responsibilities: Home Health Aides help others who need more assistance at home. Home health aides make a remarkable difference in the lives of the sick, disabled and elderly.

Salary: $22,000 per year and $14-$17 per hour

Education: A high school diploma is not required but most have one and are trained by nurses, other aides, or supervisors.









I would not like to be a home health aide because I would like to get a job that will pay more than this does. Yes it is helpful for helping others but if I had to do this it would be for my family because I wouldn’t want anyone else to take care of them if there ill because when I was young they did everything for me and I would like to do the same for them.

Student Success Statement

“I am not bound to win, but I am bound to be true. I must stand with anybody that stands right, and stand with him while he is right, and apart with him when he is wrong.”

Abraham Lincoln

 

 


To me this quote by Abraham Lincoln is saying that winning isn’t everything. Being honest is because if you’re not honest there’s not trust. So when he says he must stand with anybody that stands right means that means being with someone that is trust worthy is better than being with someone that will just tell you lie. Also, when he says that he shall stand apart with him when he is wrong he says that when you’re wrong no one will believe in what you say and will not have hope in you.

               April Fool’s Day

April fool’s day is celebrated April 1st. The purpose of this is uncertain. Some see it as a celebration related to the turn of the seasons, while others believe it stems from the adoption of a new calendar. Some pros are that you get to have a laugh for pranking someone. But sometimes the pranks you do can even hurt them or even yourself. Yes it’s a blast joking with people. But some people go too far and end up hurting one another. The best thing to do is just to do some small pranks on people. Yes they will try to get you back but that’s the best part.

  Student Success Statement

              “Character is higher than intellect.”

                 Ralph Waldo Emerson

 



This quote by Ralph Waldo Emerson is saying that your character is more important than your intellect because it describes you as a person. Also it can take you far in the world because your character shows who you are as a person and how you treat people. Emerson is right because intellect is having a reason and character is the understanding for who you are as a person in this world we live in.

I would not like to be a Health Science Librarian because I wouldn’t really like what I’m doing if I did. Being a librarian is nice and all but I really don’t like books or documents. You might say why not but it just doesn’t grab my attention. Yeah there’s nice people but I would like to have fun at my job not just read books and documents and place  them in the right place.

Student Success Statement

  “I trust that my hard work will pay off.”

Tyler Haws




 Brigham Young University Basketball Player- Mormon Church Missionary


To me this quote by Tyler Haws is saying that all your effort you put into something will pay off. Yes it takes time and dedication but it’s going to pay off in the future. Tyler has believed this since he was small and still does .This shows how it does pay off because he is now in a good university which he loves. He has been through some doubts like in 3rd grade he got cut from the team and decided to work harder. So he did and is now in a team he is better in and he shows how all the things he has done has helped him to be who he is today.
