  Reflection: DO YOU THINK YOU WOULD LIKE TO BE ONE ? WHY?  WHY NOT?                                                          

                                      Yes I wouldn't mind being an ophthalmologist you could help many people that don’t enjoy wearing glasses. I like to help people so this is a very good job for me and they get paid enough. It’s enough money to raise a family.
