Theodore Roosevelt


Student Success Statement

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

Theodore Roosevelt



I mean I guess. Honestly in the end, a person will do what is best for them, even if the decision is not right. I have done the “wrong” thing many times to make a point and to show that everything will never be perfect and peaceful. The world is corrupt, and has been lost to the public





Progress Report


100 Goals Progress Report


I have accomplished 24 goals out of a hundred.  I honestly do not have serious goals because most of the time it ends up not happening so I do not care. I prefer to go day by day not knowing what will happen. It makes life a whole lot more interesting.

John Wooden


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 



Not everyone has a creative bone in their body to do art. Everybody has a different perspective on art, and some are not pretty. Doing what is “right” but wrong in the public’s eye can and will get you in some serious trouble. 


Military Emergency Room Nurse

EMERGENCY ROOM NURSE: Focus on fundamentals of emergency nursing such as respiratory disease, cardiovascular disease, hematology/oncology, trauma management, hepatic disorders and infectious diseases. Etc.

I would not become an emergency medical nurse for the military because I do not want to die. A lot of these jobs are out in the field and I don’t want some angry country bombing the camp base and me dying. I do not want to go like that. Any job in the military is very demanding. Even if they pay for your education, they do not pay you like a regular job

Alexander Hamilton


Student Success Statement

“A promise must never be broken”

Alexander Hamilton




I agree with this statement but only because I feel that my generation should not promise anything anymore. Instead of promising people what they want or need, just do it and show them that you are there to help/support them. Not lie and break promises over and over again. No one will be left to believe you when you make the next promise.

Student Success Statement

“What you see is what you get.”


Anonymous 



Sometimes what you see isn’t what you want, or need to see. Many people see themselves in the mirror and are ashamed of their own reflection. Sometimes, it is not enough with what you see. They wish for more, but never try.

Professional Cook


Professional Cook

Duties and Responsibilities: Prepare and cook food, as well as supervise other culinary professionals in the kitchen. They may work in restaurants, hotels, resorts, private residences

Salary: $46,620


Education: High school diploma



Food has been my to go place; I feel like everyone should be able to enjoy the food they eat. I have been cooking since the age 11-years-old, due to my mother and step father having a divorce. My mom was forced to go to work, and I was forced to learn how to take care and maintain the home and siblings. I would watch the cooking channel every day after school while I cooked, just so that I could learn.

Henry David Thoreau


Student Success Statement

“Goodness is the only investment that never fails.”


Henry David Thoreau



Being nice relies with goodness. If people are too nice, the majority of the world will take advantage and use you for their own selfish benefits. I personally think that goodness can fail a person, because if you don’t know how to defend yourself properly, your goodness will be worthless to the rest of the world.  

World Records

·   Bryan Berg

3.   The longest fingernails in the world

4.  I don’t have a favorite world record.

5.  I wouldn’t try to break a world record. I feel like it is a waste of life. Not only am I not good at anything, I would probably lose to someone better, so no I don’t care for world records.

Theodore Hesburgh


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’re popular; you make them because they’re right.”


Theodore Hesburgh




I can agree with this statement, whether you make a good or bad decision, if it feels right to you, go for it. If I am okay dealing with the consequences of what that decision will bring, then it does not matter the side it was made on. It only matters if I do not take responsibility.

Licensed Practical Nurse


Licensed Practical Nurse

Duties and Responsibilities: Licensed practical nurses and licensed vocational nurses provide basic nursing care. They work under the direction of registered nurses, physicians, and doctors. It includes nursing in homes and extended care facilities, such as hospitals, physicians' offices, and private homes; cares for people who are sick, injured, convalescent, or disabled.

Salary: $41,540


Education: 12-month program accredited by the National League for Nursing Accrediting Commission


There are too many types of different nurses, and it is honestly overwhelming me. I don’t want to become a licensed practical nurse. It seems like a boring but a little bit of a stressful job. Especially when being a nurse is a full time job. I am not up for that kind of responsibility. The pay is not even that great. I will be earning more money anyway working as a life guard.

Joseph Smith


Student Success Statement

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


Joseph Smith 




In all honesty, I do not get this statement. I don’t know if it is telling me to make doing good popular, or that what is popular is not doing good so we should change it… yea I don’t know.  

Home Health Aide


Home Health Aide

Duties and Responsibilities: Home health aides go to a patient's home, to deliver health care to the elderly, ill, or disabled. They assist with personal tasks such as dressing, bathing, and helping to keep homes safe and clean. It allows those who would need a higher level of care the opportunity to live in their own home.

Salary: $21,020


Education: Certificate and training courses




Becoming a home health aide is not in my career list, I do not like helping people, especially when it involves cleaning and helping someone bath. That just grosses me out. I mean if the pay rate was higher I would reconsider.
