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.

              “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.

       Health Sciences Librarian

Duties and Responsibilities: In the area of collection development, the Research Librarian for the Health Sciences will be responsible for the selection, assessment, and management of collections and resources that support the School of Medicine. This position works collaboratively with other librarians for the health sciences, in order to understand and meet faculty, researcher, staff and students information needs and to promote the Libraries’ services and resources.


Salary: $66,220 a year

Education: Graduate degree in library science from an ALA-accredited institution or an equivalent combination of relevant advanced degree and library experience.











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.

  “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.

                     EDC DJ’s

 Electric Daisy Carnival (EDC) is a music festival held in the spring, summer, and fall months in the United States, Puerto Rico and the UK as well. In 2014 Mexico was added to the list which now hosts EDC as well. EDC DJ’s make around $250,000 just for one concert. Annually they make $125 million which is a lot for playing music. You might say what kind of music do they play and they actually play house music or dubstep or even techno. These tickets cost around $367.00 for the three days you get to have fun. I honestly think it would be worth it.

 
 








Reflection: I would like to be an EDC DJ because honestly it’s just having a great time hearing and playing music. Yes they make a lot of money but I think it’s better just seeing tons of people having a great time while hearing music. Plus you get to travel the world while having a great time doing it.

             Personal Post

One of the places I would like to do as I get older is going to Tomorrow land. Tomorrow land is a music festival all about house music. I honestly love house music because it gets you excited or just in a good mood. Some artist could be Dimitri Vegas and Like Mike, or even Hardwell. To be very honest my favorite house music artist is actually Hardwell himself. One of my favorite songs from him is Don’t Stop the Madness. This music festival is every year and this year it is celebrated May 1st-3rd and July the 24-26.This year it will be at Brazil and Belgium. Yes I know I’m not old enough to go but hopefully when I do get older I get the chance to go.

 

 



 


   Careers in Other Countries

Some jobs in the UK for example are: Some jobs in the UK can be Technology Marketing Vacancies which make around $29,000 to $73,000 a year. Also, another good job can be Healthcare Recruitment Manager which makes $51,000 to $66,000 a year. Lastly, you could also be a Head of Engineering which make up to $73,000 to $80,000 a year.


Reflection: Yes these jobs pay well and there’s more than just these but I wouldn’t want to move countries. I say this because its starting a new life and leaving the people you care about the most which I think isn’t worth leaving because they’ve been with you your whole life and have never left you.

   Student Success Statement

“True independence and freedom can only exist in doing what’s right.”

Brigham Young

 










To me this quote is saying to have your freedom you must earn it and do what is right. Some examples are if you don’t clean your room you don’t get to play outside, or if you don’t throw the trash out you don’t get your food. To get freedom it isn’t easy it’s a privilege. Yes it takes long to get but it’s easy to have it get taken away. Your freedom is everything because without it you would be in a different country or place.

               St. Patrick’s Day

St. Patrick’s Day is celebrated March 17. St. Patrick was a 5th-century Romano-British Christian missionary and bishop in Ireland. St Patrick’s Day was celebrated for the St. after his death March 17,461. It is designed like this because St. Patrick is said to have used the shamrock, a three-leaved plant, to explain the Holy Trinity to the pagan Irish. St. Patrick’s Day is celebrated everywhere around the world.

The Olivet Middle School

This video and what the team did for their friend was nice of them because they thought about him. Even though he was ill they still cared about him and they made him be a part of their team. Yes he might be different but that day they made him equal to all of them. That day was literally the best day of his life I’m pretty sure. As the kid said in his interview after that moment he stopped thinking about himself and started to care about others and how he thought about everything. Yes it was not so good to do that behind the coaches back but in the ned it was worth making Keith a happy kid and to make him have his first touchdown ever. I would like to say this shows how no matter if your ill or different from others it shows how we can be equal even for one moment.

 “They’re only truly great who are truly good.”

George Chapman


 










To me this quote by George Chapman is saying that to be great is being the best at what your good at. It will take time but in the long run it will be worth it. Yes it will be hard at first at whatever you’re going to do but his most important thing to do is not give up because giving up on yourself is the worst feeling ever. Like in the bible it says god will choke you but will never kill you so in other words learn from your mistakes because you will have to learn from them to succeed.

      Volunteer Opportunities

Some opportunities can be:

No One Should Die Alone: Which is a volunteer hospital for people that are terminally ill.

Treasure: Is used to maintain maintenance for Green Lifestyle Networks financial records.

Planning non-profit Events: To volunteer for this opportunity you can help walk to cure arthritis.


These are some Volunteer Opportunities and you can go to a local hospital or even dentist or doctor’s office to help. You can even look more up these are just a few options that I found but there’s tons of these opportunities out there. These can help you go to college or even when you get older you can start actually working there. Also, you can just do it in the kindness of your heart.

Student Success Statement

“Many think that the short term gain will be worth the long term pain, but it isn’t. In addition, using steroids is cheating, and there is nothing worse in sports than a cheater. Don’t do it.”

George Mitchell

 










To me this quote by George Mitchell is saying the truth. I say this because everything you get just because you use these drugs ends up going away. All your fame and money go to waste and every accomplishment you did was now known as a fake after. All these people that think they need these drugs should not even think of it because it just doesn’t affect themselves it affects the people that they love and that there around with. I really do agree with this quote and want to say hard work pays off and the cheating people do is worth nothing at the end of the day.

Brandon and Anthony Healthy Life Style Choices
                                                                                                                                                          March 2015
Healthy Foods
By: Anthony Romo and Brandon Martinez
We should eat healthy because people who die of diabetes, or having high cholesterol, and other diseases. They usually die young. So if you eat healthy like eating fruits and vegetables you will be good and live longer.You could still eat unhealthy foods but you are limited to eating too much unhealthy foods. Some examples of good foods is “chipotle” and or salads and fruits and vegetables. Some examples of bad foods is like McDonalds, or any other fast food restaurants.  

Some things to do to eat healthier can be trying to cut down on what you eat. Also, you can choose better lifestyle choices like eating more greens or just healthier foods in general. Most of the people that eat junk foods don’t even know what their eating and most of the foods they eat have bad chemicals that affect our body. These chemicals are mostly found in the junk foods that we eat every week and are never told about because of the companies. The companies will try to do anything because of how much money they make off of us. To finish off our thoughts healthy foods like green foods help our body and junk foods like fast food places affect us.

                           Dale Murphy









To me this quote by Dale Murphy is trying to say never to lie. The truth may be wrong but you must always tell the truth and nothing but the truth to others and yourself. Also, this quote is saying that cheating isn’t worth anything in the end. You may think it’s good at the moment but at the end it is nothing or worthless.

               “Character Matters Most.”

                         Dale Murphy

                                                               










                                   

To me this quote by Dale Murphy says that it doesn’t matter how you do your actions it matters what kind of character you had while you did them. Also, he is saying that the way you treat and act to others is how you will be treated back by them. It’s how you act that matters. For example it can be kindness which shows good character and it can be being angry at others which shows rude character.

      Mitch Makee and His Dad

Mitch is a 15 year old that had found out that his dad was diagnosed with cancer. Mitch was a wrestler and only a freshman at the time. That year he decided that he would win the championship for his dad. He won all of his matches and finally had made it to the championship. That day he won the championship for his I think was great because of what he did. To me what he did was great because even though he knew his father was not going to be there for him after that year he used his time wisely with him. This shows how money and beauty isn’t everything in life its what you do in your life that makes it great.

    Student Success Statement

“Great beauty, great strength, and great riches are really and truly of no great use; a right heart exceeds all.”

                               













Benjamin Franklin


To me this quote by Benjamin Franklin is saying beauty, riches, and strength are not everything only the person’s heart. So in other words they can have anything you want but if they don’t have a great heart they are not helpful or trustworthy. He says the heart exceeds because the heart is what gives us life what helps us succeed in life. The heart is everything in the human body. So Benjamin Franklin is showing or telling us how some people believe strength, riches, and beauty is everything in a person but it actually isn’t. The heart is. 

              Health Educator

Duties and Responsibilities: Heath educators create programs that encourage health and wellness, and prevent disease. They teach people how to make good health decisions, incorporate healthy activities into their lives and avoid harmful behaviors.

Education: Most health educator jobs require a bachelor’s degree at minimum and some employers may prefer candidates who also are Certified Health Education Specialists, the BLS reports. Undergraduate fields of study include health promotion or health education, and often include an internship.


 








I would not like to be a health educator because I honestly would not like to be in the medical field. I say this because yes they help a lot of people and make okay money but it does not grab my attention.
