In life i want to be able to graduate high school with awesome grades. After high school i want to go to a good 4 year college and then medical school after that. I hope to graduate medical school with a good degree and hopefully get a good job as a doctor. After a few years of working i want to open up my own practice. I plan to get all this by studying very hard and getting all my work done on time. I will try my hardest to get the best grades i can to get into a good college and to graduate medical school with a good degree. My back up plan if i don’t get into a great college is to at least get into a decent college that can well prepare me for medical school. If my plan does not work and i do not get a degree i would like to open up my own business, preferably a big sports bar and night club.

Content makes poor men rich; discontent makes a rich man poor.  -Benjamin Franklin.

I like this quote because it is definitely true. People who think things through and actually have good reasons for what they do will succeed. A content person whether poor or rich will make you rich. Discontent whether you are rich or not will make you unsuccessful and will eventually put a downward trend on your life.

There are many things i need to improve to become better at school. The first thing i would have to improve is paying more attention in my classes. I also need to improve on taking good notes. Improving my study habits will also help me become better at school. Getting all my homework done will also help me be better in school. Asking questions in class and being able to talk to my teachers one on one will also help me become a better student.

Lent just began yesterday and there are some sacrifices to be made. I am catholic so i follow through with my religion and sacrifice eating meat on ash Wednesday  and on fridays during lent. I also sacrifice one thing during Lent, that i like or enjoy very much. This year i gave up eating ice cream for the 40 days. Ice cream is my favorite dessert and i probably eat some almost everyday. every year for lent i give something different up in which i like a lot. The whole reason to sacrificing something during Lent is to try and represent in a very minor way how Jesus sacrificed for us. Also to notice those out there who have nothing and are not fortunate like us to have a home and food.

If i have ever lost my parents, who are two of the most important people in my life, i would probably go crazy. Because my parents taught me many of things i know today, it would hurt me to lose them. My parents raised me and always took care of me my whole life. They have given me almost everything i have ever wanted and everything i have ever asked for. Even though they do sometimes annoy me i still love them no matter what. I was always able to talk to them about everything, and they would always give me good advice to lead me into the right direction. I don’t think i have ever cried over anything before, but if i had lost them i definitely think i would cry.

Traits that i believe are part of a loving relationships are having many similarities with the other person. Being able to talk to the person about absolutely anything is also another valuable trait. In a strong relationship you need to be able to trust the other person and know that they trust you. Encouraging and supporting the other person in everything they want to do is another important trait. Also being very comfortable around the other person. You should always be honest with the other person and never hide anything from them. Eventually you should know the person well enough to know if something is wrong or if they are sad or worried about something, without them even having to tell you. These are what i believe are important traits to have a strong loving relationship to last a long time.

My most important goal for this year is to make the high honor roll. To achieve high honor roll I must receive a 90 and above in all my classes and a total average of above 95%. I will accomplish this goal by studying very hard for all my tests and making sure I always have a good understanding of what I am learning about. I will also concentrate and participate in all my classes. I will try my best not to get distracted and make sure I always have a good amount of time to study. If I do not make high honor roll, my back up plan is to receive at least honor roll. In 5 years I see my self at a very good college, possibly Pittsburg University. I will most likely study pre med. I am still not sure what type of doctor I will want to be.
