Great job Jesus!! When I was your age, many, many moons ago, several of my classmates were registered in a after school program via 4-H cqalled MEDEP. It essentially was a Medical Self Help Program that taught you about the basic applications of First Aid and CPR and Emergency Response Techniques. When I graduated, I joined the Navy and became a Corpsman....then a PA and then an Asst. Administrator in the VA. It's been a long journey, but a great one.
I wish you all the best in your travels and encourage you to put your nose to the grindstone and work as hard as you can to become the very best in what you have chosen to do. It looks as though you're getting a great start.
