"Go confidently in the direction of your dreams. Live the life you have imagined."

Henry David Thoreau

Reflection:

I think what he is trying to say is that you need to follow your dreams in order to achieve your goals and in order to succeed in life. For example:

I want to be a millionaire, if I try really hard, I might even be a billionaire so if you try your best you might achieve your goals and maybe be better then you thought you were.

Pharmacist

Duties and responsibilities:
Pharmacists compound, or prepare, prescriptions written by physicians, dentists, and other practitioners.  They review these prescriptions to validate their accuracy and then prepare the medication.  This can involve weighing, measuring, and mixing drugs.  Once the compounds are prepared, pharmacists then dispense them to customers and patients.
Pharmacists answer patients' and customers' questions about the drugs they are taking and drugs which can be sold over the counter.  In some cases, pharmacists are responsible for taking inventory of the drugs on the shelves and ordering any which they are low on.

         Pharmacists work in hospitals, clinics, health departments, universities, and grocery, drug, and discount stores.  Those who work in stores must be aware of the other health supplies available in the store so they do not direct customers in the wrong direction.

Average Salary:  $33,000 - $51,000

Educational Requirements:
         Students should take the most challenging high school classes (including AP or IB) available in English, science, and math.
All pharmacists must graduate from a college of pharmacy.  Most pharmacy schools require applicants to take the Pharmacy College Admissions Test (P-CAT), and some require up to two years of pre-pharmacy education.  Other colleges will admit students directly from high school.

         Normally it takes at least five years to earn a Pharmacy Degree.  To earn a Doctor of Pharmacy degree,  Pharm.D., requires at least six.
                                      
Reflection:
I would not want to be a pharmacist.

"I will persist until I succeed."

Og Mandino

Reflection:

I think what he is trying to say is that he will keep on trying until he succeeds and he will not stop until he completes his goal.
For Example:
Buying a new car, I will not be able to afford one but in the future I am going to try harder to get it.

Perfusionist

Duties and responsibilities:

     Clinical perfusionists operate circulation equipment during medical situations when it is necessary to temporarily and artificially replace the patient’s circulatory or respiratory functions.  This occurs during heart surgery and similar operations.  Perfusionists also control the temperature of patients during surgery.  Their duties include: 

• Operating heart-lung machines
• Administering some types of anesthesia
• Administering some types of medication

Average Salary: $50,000

Education Requirements:

      A high school diploma with a strong background in biology and chemistry is required to be accepted in perfusionist training programs. Admissions preference is given to students with college science work or experience in respiratory therapy and medical terminology.

                                               

Reflection: 

     I wouldn't like to be a perfusionist because I do not want to be the one that messes up and ruins someones life.

STUDENT SUCCESS STATEMENT

"Nothing in the world can take the place of 

Persistence.

Talent will not; nothing is more common that unsuccessful men with talent.

Genius will not; unrewarded genius is almost a proverb.

Education will not; the world is full of educated derelicts.

Persistence and determination alone are omnipotent. The slogan 'PRESS ON' has 

solved and always will solve the problems of the human race."

President Calvin Coolidge

30th President of US(1872-1933)

Reflection:

I think what it's trying to say is that If you fail then you are most likely going to succeed and you will learn from your mistakes, and that's what made you a better person. If people say that you can do it and that you are never going to succeed in life, then prove the wrong.
