"Education Is The Latch Key To Success"

"Education is the latch key to success" is Gordon B. Hinckley's famous quote. I believe that he is correct because most of the people we look up to like Bill Gates and Obama all had a great education. Obama didn't start very well but, once he got a grip on his life he ended up becoming president. Bill Gates was a dropout. The difference between him and most people who drop out is the Bill Gates dropped out of his final year at harvard while most people can't even graduate from high school. I think this is true because, my brother's couldn't even finish high school, so now they are stuck working in restaurants. That's why I have to graduate from high school.

Reflection:
I would not like to be an Acupuncturist because I just believe that it is not a very exciting job. Once again I would much rather be an electronic engineer. I don’t really like touching people so it is just not the job for me. I also might get tense that I might hurt the person I’m supposed to be healing .

  

My Hobbies

Some of my hobbies include things such as playing video games. I also really enjoy playing basketball. I got interested in video games when I was two years old. I had gotten my first gameboy in 2002. This gift would be one to change the way I live. Video games can take you to a different world where you can do whatever you want. You can kill people, race in flying cars, the possibilities are infinite. I got interested in basketball when I was in fourth grade. We hadn't done much in recess, until one day we decided to play basketball. That desison was one of the best I have ever made. When I got into middle school, I started getting a bit more curious on what other sports I could play, besides basketball. Then me and some of my friends decided to play football, then soccer and that's what we would play whenever the field was open, which wasn't very often. I also like to play video-games with two of my friends because they're the only two people I know that don't get annoying when playing video-games. We play almost anything we can get our hands on. I also like to cook, since my dad has a restaurant he taught me how to cook really nicely and delicious. Those are all of my hobbies.

Audiologist

                           Audiologist

Audiologists are ear specialists.  Normally they work with patients who have problems with hearing, balance or other ear related problems. They normally work in health care but some also work in schools. Common duties include identifying, assessing and environments. Most of their work is centered on the need of hearing aids.

A doctoral degree in audiology is required of all individuals who want to become an audiologist. The graduate program usually requires four years to complete. You must already have a bachelor’s degree to enroll in this program. It usually includes genetics, anatomy, physiology, communication development, and much more.



Add A Picture:
Reflection:

I would consider being an audiologist because it looks like it is a very easy job. An audiologist most of the time looks like a calm mellow person. But I feel like with one little mistake you can end up ruining someone’s hearing. But, on the other hand you can also give people who can’t hear very well the chance to hear once more.

Reflection:

I would not like to be an ambulance dispatcher because they don’t get paid very well. Although they do save people’s lives, I believe that electronic engineering is much more of a hands on career. If anything I would rather be an ambulance driver because at least then I will be part of the action.
