This camp was challenging and you have to be extremely dedicated and it pushed you to your limits to decide if the medical field is really for you or it's not. Although there is many challenges in this camp it really inspired me and made me even more passionate about this field.]]> 2020-08-17 16:29:25 UTC https://padlet.com/mjrethor/zcfcbx7oehsijc9d/wish/683129360 mschon9955 https://padlet.com/mjrethor/zcfcbx7oehsijc9d/wish/683372411 Throughout elementary and middle school, I had the opportunity to attend a Jewish summer camp where I could expand on my heritage and learn about how campers lives and their own beliefs have affected them. It was inspiring to hear why they follow their faith and how they balance their beliefs in politics. I learned how to fully respect everyones opinions/beliefs and how to confidently share my own feelings/beliefs.]]> 2020-08-17 17:52:40 UTC https://padlet.com/mjrethor/zcfcbx7oehsijc9d/wish/683372411 https://padlet.com/mjrethor/zcfcbx7oehsijc9d/wish/683405419 When I was younger I never had a clear career path in mind. I didn't think it mattered until I heard other people talking about their passions and how they wanted to pursue certain paths for their life, I began to feel like i'd fallen behind. The summer going into high school I decided to join athletic training just to have an extracurricular, soon after i discovered a world of rehabilitation and great people. I developed a passion for this and now I attend CCTE through the sports med program and from there I plan to major in kinesiology and later get my doctorate in Physical Therapy. ]]> 2020-08-17 18:04:19 UTC https://padlet.com/mjrethor/zcfcbx7oehsijc9d/wish/683405419 brianna_v https://padlet.com/mjrethor/zcfcbx7oehsijc9d/wish/683432318 Being introduced to the electronic music scene has allowed me to find my passion for music and has given me the opportunity to expand and share my interests. For me it is more of an experience than just the music itself. I have discovered many new hobbies for my enjoyment and met great people because of electronic dance music. It has shown me to not limit myself but to discover and find myself, and most importantly, to strive for happiness in anything that I do. ]]> 2020-08-17 18:14:17 UTC https://padlet.com/mjrethor/zcfcbx7oehsijc9d/wish/683432318 akenne7503 https://padlet.com/mjrethor/zcfcbx7oehsijc9d/wish/683501486 although I haven't been to very many places or out of the country, traveling and being outside has taught be to appreciate the small beauties in life. In areas I've traveled, its brought peace of mind and understanding that there are more things in the world to worry about and other things to appreciate than the minor inconveniences i may be experiencing from day to day. ]]> 2020-08-17 18:39:23 UTC https://padlet.com/mjrethor/zcfcbx7oehsijc9d/wish/683501486 yherna0228 https://padlet.com/mjrethor/zcfcbx7oehsijc9d/wish/683650030 i havent really been going to my aerial classes recently because of covid, but this sport has helped me express myself and feel more comfortable and strong with myself i love how poses make me feel and how they look, they help me feel more confident with myself and that has been really hard to do being locked down at home. aerial has also helped me be patient with the learning process because it takes a while to get the hang of things and most importantly, aerial has become a therapeutic outlet for me where i feel safe, and calm even when things at home aren't the best. ]]> 2020-08-17 19:43:57 UTC https://padlet.com/mjrethor/zcfcbx7oehsijc9d/wish/683650030 yesseniagarcia0238 https://padlet.com/mjrethor/zcfcbx7oehsijc9d/wish/683840318 One of my personal experiences that really changed me was being in cheer. I realized the love i have for the sport and being in the program helped me gain so much confidence I never had. Because of cheerleading i finally found who i really am and i could never regret being in such amazing teams. Whenever i was having bad days cheer would be the only thing that would make everything better. I learned how to be an effective leader and grew as a person because the girls helped me learn more about myself. Since i have been in cheer i have learned how to be a team leader and i have created so many amazing friendships with some really great people.]]> 2020-08-17 21:50:12 UTC https://padlet.com/mjrethor/zcfcbx7oehsijc9d/wish/683840318 kferna3518 https://padlet.com/mjrethor/zcfcbx7oehsijc9d/wish/683998292 Growing up, my family and I would travel to various places because my older brother and I were in city league sports. Visiting different locations make me feel really happy and it allows me to experience different cultures and an idea of a different way of living. Since we don't play sports anymore, there's less traveling. Because I was so used to traveling when I was younger, I now miss the feeling I used to get when we'd go on trips. I plan to travel to other places I haven't been to before to feel the tranquility and joy again!]]> 2020-08-18 00:35:32 UTC https://padlet.com/mjrethor/zcfcbx7oehsijc9d/wish/683998292 moliva6006 https://padlet.com/mjrethor/zcfcbx7oehsijc9d/wish/684125546 A personal experience that changed my view on the world was being a part of the health science program at CCTE. At CCTE I was able to learn about the medical field and health care system and how to become a better health care provider. CCTE has provided challenges that have helped me grow as a person and a leader. This year I was 
fortunate enough to have received a position in the EMT Program. By the end of this year I will have four certifications. This includes EKG Certification, 911 Dispatch certification, EMT Certification and Community Health Worker Certification. I plan to use this to my advantage going to college. I'm planning to major in Cellular and Molecular Biology, with a minor in Stats. Then plan to attend medical school to become an Emergency Medicine Physician. ]]> 2020-08-18 02:29:20 UTC https://padlet.com/mjrethor/zcfcbx7oehsijc9d/wish/684125546 itsbellagarcia218 https://padlet.com/mjrethor/zcfcbx7oehsijc9d/wish/685746811 During this quarantine, I had the chance to visit Dallas for the first time. I have always wanted to go there because I have a lot of family members there, but never had the chance. It was amazing because I got to know so much about the rest of my family and got to get a lot closer with them. It will definitely be a memory that I will always cherish.]]> 2020-08-18 18:45:47 UTC https://padlet.com/mjrethor/zcfcbx7oehsijc9d/wish/685746811 gorozc8992 https://padlet.com/mjrethor/zcfcbx7oehsijc9d/wish/685767213 Before middle school, I never really liked traveling away from home by myself. The only exceptions to this were our school trips to Kansas, but my Freshman year, I went on my first solo missioning trip for nine days, and ever since then, I have become much more independent from my family. Of course, it is always great to have people to rely on, but this trip changed me by allowing me the freedom to explore and learn about new places without worrying about distance.]]> 2020-08-18 18:53:25 UTC https://padlet.com/mjrethor/zcfcbx7oehsijc9d/wish/685767213 sgalle5591 https://padlet.com/mjrethor/zcfcbx7oehsijc9d/wish/686149058 This summer I was blessed enough to spend a lot of time out doors away from home. During that time I feel that I grew a lot both mentally and emotionally because all that quiet and tranquility really give me time to think about my future and what I want to do with my short time on this earth. Because of the lack of electronics I really started to appreciate How important dialogue and conversation are and for that I’m truly thankful. ]]> 2020-08-18 22:35:08 UTC https://padlet.com/mjrethor/zcfcbx7oehsijc9d/wish/686149058 pablodp2002 https://padlet.com/mjrethor/zcfcbx7oehsijc9d/wish/686397593 About 18 months ago i was overweight, i had recently gone with  my doctor for my yearly checkup and he informed me that i was overweight and propense to diabetes as well as other health problems.

Since we hardly ever travel far, visiting landmarks in the area really gave me insight on how difficult it must've been feeling alone in a big city. Experiencing this with my family was truly amazing and I can't wait to go back.]]> 2020-08-19 05:44:02 UTC https://padlet.com/mjrethor/zcfcbx7oehsijc9d/wish/686566078 pijauregui65 https://padlet.com/mjrethor/zcfcbx7oehsijc9d/wish/687217666  Traveling to japan was an amazing experience. I loved learning about the culture and visiting all the beautiful sites. Nature and environment is something that greatly affects me, and in Japan nature is of great religious importance, so all the trees and plans are very well taken care of. It was very calming to see. We visited temples, forests, and museums, and everything was so different from anything in America. We also visited some art studios that I plan on applying to for my career. I would like to visit again some day, and i dream of living there in the future. ]]> 2020-08-19 14:44:43 UTC https://padlet.com/mjrethor/zcfcbx7oehsijc9d/wish/687217666
