Class Evaluation

         To start, the things mostly appreciated in this class are the manners we learn to share. In other classes students seem different as in they don't know how to behave. However, in this class, student act respectfully not only to the teacher but also to their classmates. I really likes this because I can see what we have learn developing in other students and in myself. This class teaches us that we can be different or at least try every day, harder and harder.

            Some things I didn't like about this class was that I couldn't fully agree to everything Mr. Haymore said. It made me think twice about my own beliefs and self teachings but I don't know if this was right. Right now I have decided that I can think my own way, and go to my self-beliefs but still be respectful for his ideas. It doesn't matter if we are both different, both of our opinions still matter.

            I recommend for Mr. Haymore to improve on his actions and tasks and less on his words. I agree that teaching students about this specific subject is incredibly great, but students want more to do and for him to show us what's best to do, instead of having to hear it. Most thing are hard for us teens to hear and believe. Also, there are some sayings that what comes to one ear comes out through the other. Definitely, his teaches are great and are capable of improving one's life, but to give it a push I would recommend this.

            A highlight for me in this class was the way Mr. Haymore is convinced as he teaches. Most teachers teach because that's there job, but in this case it looks as if this is his passion. I wouldn’t judge is a teacher wasn’t satisfied with their subject or work, but I also appreciate when they do. Mr. Haymore is one kind man and I love seeing him love his students aswell. I am good at spotting small things, and this is one of the many highlights I’ve seen,

           I believe that I did do my best in this class. Although this was an easy class for me, I am sure there would be other students who wouldn’t even try to pass it. This is my 3rd Block class, and also my elective. This block gives me a chance to find or think about my future. I can right goals for myself. I can also see this more than just an education class, I can see it as a one more step to my life.

              I am also reading and writing on my Life Planning Goals Journal at least five minutes daily and reporting them to my E-Portfolio. This journal is where I make and think about goals I want to accomplish in my life. Some of these goals are either educational, familiar, or for myself. At the end all of these goals take me to only one place which is success.

               In essence, I will start committing myself on being a CTR person because it’s the best I can do for myself and for others. Also, being this kind of person can teach me many more things throughout my journey of life. I also know that if there’s more people like me, then I know that I won’t be alone.

WHAT I LEARNED

Honesty

Honesty is what is most needed to create trust with one another. There are so many people that cannot be trusted for the reason that they always lie or do things to lose our trust. In the video presented to us, I learned that when you’re honest, you can be disgracing some people but what matters is to whom you’re doing it for. Always think about why and how you got to understand honesty,. this way you will think smarter and be more proactive on your actions and words. It’s never too late to but all those bad memories behind and start something fresh and new.

“When you tell one lie, it leads to another”

~Paul Hatch

You’re afraid that the truth will hurt you, so you make up a lie to try to make it better instead. However, did you know that lying can get you into more trouble than telling the truth? In almost every case, people who lie don’t really think about what’s next. So what IS next? Well, another lie. You can’t lie and expect for the truth to come out like nothing, of course, you can try to and in this case will be doing the right thing. On the other hand, if you lie and can’t seem to say what’s actually true, then you will end up falling in the tramp again and find yourself lying to whomever the person is. In my opinion, I think it’s better for all of us to just forget about lying and trust one another more. This way of living life can make things so much better, easier, and honorable. In conclusion, it’s good to think twice before lying or doing anything bad in general.

“The Sting of the Scorpion”

This story talks about Patrick Kearon, of a story in his childhood. He explains of the remembrance of his parents always telling him to wear his shoes, whenever and  wherever he went. His story then led to where his disobedience came, where he was lazy and didn’t think straight. He started wearing flip-flops instead of his real closed shoes. He knew it was wrong and that his parents had told him to wear the correct shoes all the time, but he didn’t exactly know why. It then came where he started walking and suddenly received a very painful sting on his toe. He realized the Scorpion under him had caused this so he immediately cried for help. His parent took him to the hospital rushingly. After that, he received good help from his doctor and by this time he’s learned his lesson. His story gave a great example of people who can't make the right choices and do the wrong movements. Sometimes it can be the cause of laziness or just for the fun of ourselves. Patrick didn't only affect himself in disobeying, but also his parents. Ruining and interrupting a good camping vacation with terrible news of his. This can also relate to us when we don't only hurt ourselves with the bad decisions we make, but we also hurt others. After he learned his lesson, he also learned why he had to wear his shoes. We all need to realize our mistake at the end and make everything better by figuring out why is exactly what we are doing wrong.

“Always do Right.”

~Mark Twain

“Always do right” is a short best advice statement. There is almost nothing much said in this statement, but much to understand  of it. For example, doing the right can be seen in many ways like helping someone when they fall, or doing your chores even when no one tells you too, or making right choices instead of the bad ones. It doesn’t matter where or what the situation is, choosing the right is always going to be your answer to success. Choosing the right takes you to the path of success and greatness. However, making the wrong decision can cause a pain in the heart later on. Now, the only thing left to do is to think about the right choices, or the wrong choices and their price. No one ever wants to regret something they cannot change that could’ve been avoided. This empty feeling  inside the heart where all you can do is think and remember and make the right choice this time.

“It’s better to be alone than to be in bad company”

~George Washington

From this quote, I can take a long lasting advice, even for everyone. This quote is saying that if it means to do good and escape the bad, but in the need to be alone it is all worth it. This quote also says that it doesn’t matter if your “friends” seem good and nice from the outside, it will always pass on to the next, until the bad gets to you. It also says that you can never trust bad company, not even for a moment. So in the end, you have to get away from those who put evil and bad decisions in your mind, and just stay alone until you figure out what’s right for you. No one ever said making decisions was going to be easy anyways

World War Ⅱ

History: December 7,1941

• The Dates for World War Ⅱ are September 1, 1939- September 2, 1945

• World War 2 was fought between two groups of countries. On one side were the Axis Powers, including Germany, Italy and Japan. On the other side were the Allies. They included Britain, France, Australia, Canada, New Zealand, India, the Soviet Union, China and the United States of America.

• World War 2 took place across the Globe.

• Some events that happened during World War 2 are….

                                         ~3 Sep 1939, Invasion of Poland Marks

                                         ~1 Jul 1940, Battle of Britain

                                         ~22 Jun 1941, Germany Invades USSR

                                         ~May 8 1945, victory in Europe Day

• At Wounded Warrior Homes they celebrate our veterans everyday. They provide transitional housing and comprehensive support to veterans with Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) and Traumatic Brain Injury (TBI) to support them as they reintegrate from combat to civilian life. Veterans day gives everyone a chance to celebrate what we do, and the veterans we help, with the whole country.

Challenges Teens Face Today

• In this generation, I believe that our teens are facing more problems than the adults. Everyone sees youth as a problem but also a phase. No one “understands” them and no one really “cares”. However, several of the many major challenges teens face today is the rejection of their parents, or in general, from any adult, supervisor, or counselor.

• My major challenges that I fear in this era is my mental disorder. I don’t think this is specifically towards teens, but there is a higher rate of it. Dysphoria is not something easy to deal with, especially when others don’t know about it, and do the exact contrary of what you want them to do. Life is never going to be easy on us all the time, but it’s not going to be difficult forever.

• Any challenges that come to anyone can be easily resolved and fixed. The only thing we need to cooperate in is our willing to work and stay strong no matter what comes in our way. The first thing is to be and think like a CTR person everywhere we go. This helps us remember that it doesn’t matter how bad or damaged we can be, the feelings and lives of others still matter.

• The only advice I can give out to those who need it is that, I know it’s difficult to understand things in these situations, but I know that even if it takes its time nothing will last forever. This concludes with giving hope to those who desperately want to be awaken by the light, the light is close to come.

• The greatest need that teens have is love. This also goes to everyone, but I believe that teens want reality more than anything, and not having love is like being dead. The love they need is strong that they’d do anything to get it. The love that their parents doesn’t give them, kills them. The love of that friend that doesn't give them, kills them. They only want to find that person who will, and when they’ve finally found, their world is restored.

“Physical Fitness is not only one of the most important keys to a healthy body, it is the basis of dynamic and creative intellectual activity. Intelligence and skill can only function at the peak of their capacity when the body is healthy and strong”

~ Ex President John F. Kennedy

I believe that John Kennedy is talking about how to make your brain act and think better. Eating healthy and staying hydrated makes your brain stronger therefore it is also smarter and more energetic. Without these things in your life, you become sick and lazy, which all of these add up to not-so-smart. However, I believe that everyone should live, eat, and exercise however and whenever they choose to because it is their lifestyle. At the end, everything can just be a myth. You can be however you want to be and still be the smartest person in your class. The deal is to not let other people judge you in the way you choose to live your life.

Health Science Librarian

                       Health science librarians are skilled at producing detailed bibliographies related to many different health fields, as well as publications and abstracts. Their primary task is to use their access to extensive national networks to locate books, journals, and articles a customer may need, no matter where it is in the country. They are employed in various settings like health organization libraries, health information centers, pharmaceutical companies, and medical schools.

Demand or Need for this profession…

                       An investigation of the manpower requirements of health sciences libraries and of educational programs appropriate to these manpower needs was begun in March 1968. To date, 4,727 libraries have been identified as being used by 14,000 health sciences institutions and programs. Of this total, 2,628 are hospital libraries; 1,328 are health sciences libraries and collections located outside of hospitals; and 771 are academic or public libraries.

Reflection…

                         I think this would be a suitable job for me because I love health and science but I’m afraid of being something big and responsible. For example, being a doctor, nurse, or surgeon would creep my life out. In this case being a Health Science Librarian would be the easiest thing for me.
