Just last week I finished the Hunger Games series it was amazing. It took about a week and a half for me to finish reading all three books. Once I started reading I could not stop peeta was a perfect character, then Katniss and how they fell in love, I was very emotional once I finished reading the books I no longer knew what to do with my time. Everything was clear in the end which I am very happy about it the perfect ending to a perfect story. I truly fell in love with Peeta Mellark. This series has now become my #1 books my favorite books tied with that was then this is now by SE hinton. I think I will re read these three books started Wednesday when I finish reading the fault in our stars.

Ophthalmologist

Duties and Responsibilities: Ophthalmologist are physicians who specialize in eye care. They prescribe both pharmecuticals and eye glass lenses. When needed they can perform  eye surgery. Most ophthalmologist have a private practice, a very little amount are hired by hospitals and clinics.

Salary: $90,000 - $150,000

Educational Requirements: Only physicians can study to become ophthalmologist. After completing medical school and an internship, ophthalmologist must complete a 3-5 year  residency in ophthalmology program. They then must pass an examination to become a certified ophthalmologist.

I would be interested in becoming an ophthalmologist because of the pay and the fact that it is probably easier for you to start your own business rather than getting hired.

Student Success Statement 

" Hold yourself responsible for a higher standard then anybody else expects of you. Never excuse yourself."

Henry Ward Beecher

You have to put a higher standard for yourself do not let anyone do it for you, make it higher than anyone would ever think. Do not be what others expect of you achieve higher than even their wildest thoughts. If someone tells you that you are not going to amount to anything other than maybe making it to a cal state do not let that bring you down set a higher goal for yourself so that later you can tell them that you succeed their expectations. 

    Ophlthalmic Technician

Duties and Responsibilities: Ophlthalmic technicians or technologists work with ophlthalmologists to collect data and analyze eye disease and problems to come up with the best treatments. They work in hospitals, clinics, or for private ophlthalmologists. Their work usually includes;

 

·        Perform simple eye exams

·        Assist in eye surgery

·        Explaining results and procedure to patients

Average Salary: $14,000 - $25,000

Education: Students are required to have a high school diploma or GED certificate with an additional two years of college before beginning their ophlthalmic training program. These programs usually last two years.

I would not be interested in becoming an ophlthalmic technician because I want to study the whole body not just focus on one organ such as the eyes. The line of interest I have is probably leaning more towards the respiratory system.

"Goal setting is goal getting. Set and get "

Mark Victor  Hansen

When you set your goals it is sort of a platform, you have to start somewhere and that slighest thought your goals is your starting point that is what you push off on. When you set a goal it is more likely you will get it because you are thinking of it therefore working on it, what ever you think in terms of good goals, if you try to make them happen they will become reality. So set your goals and you will get what you wanted. 

Progress Report

I have about three goals that I have been working on than the rest these are the only three that are short term goal which are reading 100 books, drinking four bottles of a day, and having no cavities.
