2. About me I have lived in Lindsay my entire life, I was born in the Lindsay hospital, this is where I grew up. I enjoy spending most of my time with my girlfriend or friends, my passions are guitar, singing, and Mixed Martial Arts. "Don't get set into one form, adapt it and build your own, and let it grow, be like water. Be formless, shapeless — like water. It can flow or it can crash. Be water, my friend" - Bruce Lee

3. Preview The most meaning full part of the project… I couldn’t decide Visual Rep. Job shadow Research report vs.

4. Job Shadow I job shadowed captain Jesse Renteria at the Tulare County Fire Station 15 My only fear is not to die in a fire but that I would find a soul no longer living. As soon as I have my license I will work at the fire department as a volunteer firefighter I will go to PC to take my firefighter 1 course to gain certificates to further pursue the career

5. Visual Representation http://samortiz2013.weebly.com/visual-rep.html

6. Research Report MMA vs. Boxing, which is safer? I chose this topic because MMA is my passion and a lot of people argue with me saying boxing is safer than MMA I learned that boxing has had a lot of deaths and severe injuries and also that it is not for sure that either is safer, it is a four year study and it is only in the first year This topic relates to my future because even though I will be a firefighter I do want to fight in MMA and I like to know the statistics

7. Journals March would have to be the most meaningful month of my high school career Graduating its self is the biggest accomplishment it was a struggle for me but I made it In a year looking at my first and last journal I see that I have learned that I always need to work hard and do what I can to succeed in life In my future I see myself being a firefighter full time and working in anything else I can squeeze in my time

8. Thank you! Thank you for all your time spent listening to me and all I had to talk about, I really appreciate the time spent here and I hope to see you again
