My Journey

How will I follow my passion?

Im going to become a Physical Therapist. I have actually recently discovered this career by taking a professional advancement class here in laguardia. I am currently a liberal arts major, and I plan on getting my assoicates degree. After achieving this, I will attend Hunter's college because I heard they have a good P.T program. I will probally stay there until I get my masters in P.T and live my life doing something I love.

How will I use my education to make the world a better place?

I plan on helping people recover from thier injuries and help maintain there life physically and emotionally. When people get into life threatning accidents, it can sometimes pose a problem to thier life emotionally. I want to motivate them back into leading a normal and productive life. Most of all, Im going to motivate them back into health. I want to teach them exercises and encourage them not to quit. This of course means to exercise and EAT healthy. By eating healthy they can then eat more organic foods and help the earth in yet another way. I plan on keeping track with my patients and establish relationships to ensure they are leading good lives. Everyday can be a converstion and motivation to doing something good for our earth. As a side hobby I wanna help train people how to exercise, so you can only imagine how many conversations that is with people....and believe me I can talk my butt off!!!

Good entry and a great passion: helping people be/feel better by staying healthy.

Now it's time to make your entries "bloggier"--add some links or photos related to the things/people/places in your blog.

I think it's great that you also want to help people out. It's kind of what I want to do =) Very nice

I know I'm sounding a little repetitive, but it really is cool that you're passion involves wanting to help people. I'm sure that pay check is a good motivation too, lol, but still that's real cool. You don't see that too often.

Very interesting career! I really encourage you to pursue it although it may get tough with the science, biology, etc...
I think you need to love helping people too on top of caring for their health. For that, you will need to become a prominent example in your life. I know you can do it.

Hi Erick, my name is Jung Byeon. Here is my quick peer evaluation for your blog. It was impressed your ideas that you want to be physical therapist and help someone who is injuries and help maintain there life physically and emotionally; I want to know more what you meant by emotionally. I think it was good formatting but it would be better if you wrote just paragraph form without questions. I like your design of blog, too. It is right font size with bright color; I was so impressed because of such bright color and back ground.
