Journal 2/21

I'm doing good on my masterpiece  I just got a meeting with a owner of a wellness program. He's looking for people looking to have enthusiasm about individuals looking to better themselves.
This gets my foot in the door. My golden opportunity because this is where my experience begins. I feel like I am fit for this position. I can excel as a wellness trainer. I feel satisfied with my education I have a countless number resources I find new ones everyday on my own. Even before this project I would find resources that I can learn from everyday. I feel with my own ambition I can do what I please, I have drive to accomplish my dreams. When I have passion for something I get addicted to it, doing whatever I can to learn more about it and get more experience.

LAUNCH

During my time in high school I have obtained skills and intelligence from expirence from the inside and more of outside. I thought I wanted to be a nurse but that's was not just good enough. Anyone can be a nurse, go to school for two years get your bachelors and then get into the nursing program. But I wanted to go into further. Becoming a nurse is a set goal but that's not what I actually feel happy with. I love to workout, fitness and whatever subject that has to do it with (ex. Endocrinology). That's why I want to go I to coaching/ physical education. I don't want to be just a P.E teacher I want to be a role model for kids who are trying to better there physical appearance and obtain their goals. I like to learn about things I can do everyday to make me look and feel better. When you eat good you feel good and you look good. I don't see a reason to be lazy and not achieve a physical appearance. Some say cause they obtain "satisfaction" on how they look without eating right or proper exercise. Well just because you can be satisfied without taking care of yourself doesn't mean your healthy. Your body is like a machine it's composed of different parts that run on essential nutrients and proteins. Your mind might be satisfied with how you look, but on the inside your body is not satisfied. Just getting by when it comes to your body is not close to good enough. That's what I want  to go to school for kinesiology, endocrinology, physical therapy, hormone replacement therapy, bodybuilding. To have the right education to inform people on how to  keep orderly with taking care of themselves.

Hafta/wanna...

For most of the senior class this year we are ready to go. Most of everyone I talk to is doing there own thing and have a set plan for their future. So most students feel like as if this year didn't exist (as in they graduated last year) they would be on there path to there goals. I feel the same, not that it's a waste of time, but if I only had to go to school for two classes a day  i would have the rest of the day to get my responsibilities done. In case I have four elective classes. Which are; teachers assistant, weights, photoshop, and horticulture. Now take this however you want, but I generally feel like I can achieve satisfaction in a class even without going half the time. I don't have homework and if I did I wouldn't have time to. So I do feel as well like the rest of the classes I have are a waste of time. I learned how to photoshop my face on a character in a picture. Took three weeks, I learned the first day. That means in that class I sit down and do nothing, in my T.A class I sit, in weights I lift (and I have. Gym membership), and in my horticulture class I water and cater to plants.. So four hours of my day I could be outside where I have freedom to the food I want and work more hours and actually have more of a life. People don't realize it, senior year kids are saving money and also having to provide for themselves. I'm not lazy in school, I don't have "senioritis" I have AMBITION to pursue my goals. But I have to sit for four more months. I take my core classes seriously but I just feel like the rest of the day is a day where you feel like you didn't accomplish anything.

Life after

I graduate high school in under five months, an in these last five months I've been getting my life plan together. A year after high school I plan on going to Allan Hancock for my general ed. I will go year round that way I can finish in a year an a half. Then I'm going to go on to a four year college to get a degree to be a p.e. Teacher. When I get my degree and have started working I will be going back to school to become a physical therapist and get my personal training license. So when I become a physical therapist i can also work as a personal trainer. I'm fascinated with the body and being healthy. So I will be using the skills I have developed throughout the years of training in the gym, and my knowledge to help others and make good money at it. I'm currently working to save for school, and I will continue to make my dues for school.

Visual storytelling

When Visual story telling;

Use descriptive words that will make what your story come alive. The person your telling the story to was not  in the exact moment be sure to go in deep. They will only understand or see your story if you include words that have good meaning to your setting. Mention metaphors or a reference that helps the listener project the story in there mind. Use imagery on parts of the story that will catch the listeners attention the most.

Profile in courage

In class we watch a documentary called murderball. It was about these men who we're paralyzed and played wheelchair rugby, an Olympic sport.

These group of men who are from all parts of the country show pride in the fact they can't use there legs ( plus other body parts) and still be able to play a sport. These men are tough and use there disability as the motivation to strive. Everyone has a different story behind being paralyzed, or not having certain body parts. These men are more than just handicapped. They have a lot of courage and determination of this sport. It's exciting and helps you look at a different side of life.
