Dental schools require that the students take college level classes in science subjects, like chemistry, biology, anatomy, and physics.

Reflection: Do you think you would like to be one? Why? Why not?

I think I would like to be one because I like the idea of helping people out if they have a gum disease, or periodontal disease. I would like to treat patients into feeling better about their mouths and have less pain or irritation in their mouth.

What is HONOR?

What is HONOR?

Honor is respect, being privileged, having pride in yourself. An official award for bravery or achievement, having the class/course of degree studies more specialized than the ordinary. It is being higher than everyone else because of your achievements, to have respect towards something. For example, having honor towards you mother/ father or even a country when you go to war. Dis honorable means having shame; bring shame or disgracing it on. For example, when you have dishonor towards the police and spit on them or talk smack to them. The difference between these two is that for ting one has respecting another person place or thing, and the other doesn’t. Secondly dishonorable has no shame in doing anything and doesn’t care.

“He who walks with the wise grows wise, but a companion of fools suffers harm.”

A Proverb

This statement means that whoever you hang with or talk to is the person you’ll become. If you hang out with a bad crowd then you’ll end in jail because you got caught smoking g marijuana, robbing things, stealing, etc. While the right crowd is making it in life, being successful and choosing the right. You have to choose who you hang with, if you want to be good and have a good life stay with the people who are smart and go the extra mile. Don’t stay with the students that cuss out and get into fights because most likely you’ll end up just like them.

“You can’t hire someone else to do your push-ups for you.”

Jim Rohn

Jim is telling us in order for you to do something you must do it yourself, you can’t let others do it for you. You’re not succeeding if you let others do it for your. You aren’t getting better instead you’re getting worse because you’re not practicing. For example, if you tell your friend to go practice a sport you are playing, it’s not you practicing it’s, you being lazy because you don’t want to try.
