I have two career options, the one that is posted bellow is my first option (a pediatric dermatologist) but if I keep training, this would be a good option for me.

Pediatric Dermatologist Career!

This term we have been investigating suitable careers for us in the future.

The process of Chocolate!

Making chocolate is a long process, you grow the cocoa beans and harvest them from pods on trees, found mostly in the tropical weather of the equatorial forest (The Pacific Equatorial Forest is a tropical forest ecosystem located at 0° latitude in coastal Ecuador, in the province of Manabí) .
The estimated time for some cocoa pods to grow and to be ready for harvesting is 5-6 months. 
Once the cocoa beans are extracted from the pods, the beans are covered for 5-7 days to ferment (of a substance, to undergo fermentation). After fermentation the cocoa beans are left in the sun for six days, to dry out.                                              

At collection centers, the dried beans are weighed and checked for quality before being packed into a bag, and transported to the Barry Callebaut cocoa factory, for processing. In the cocoa factory, the beans are sorted, cleaned, dried and broken into nibs, the nibs are then roasted and then grounded to a fine liquid mass.

The cocoa liquor can be further processed into cocoa butter, and cocoa powder. Depending on the chocolate recipe cocoa liquor, cocoa butter, sugar or milk powder are mixed, and continually needed (this process is called conching) which gives the chocolate a great texture. Other ingredients, such as nuts, may be added before delivering. Either in liquid form, blocks or in the form of drops or chocolate chips.

And that is the process of making chocolate!

Spencer Park SLSC Poem

The waves crash onto the shore

I call this my home

The sand on my feet

And the shell on my toe

The mini figures

Riding the waves

The dinghy

The holes

And nothing but waves

The big wood building

That took a while to build

The races

The places

Third, second and first

The flag

I am proud

From the sea

To the ground

I call this my home

Spencer park!

                                  

The Beach Poem

The Beach

The glistening waves spill upon the shore

On the golden sand.

Little figures ride the waves

As they topple off the boards.

The children making sandcastles

While the babies run them over

The seagulls looking for a meal

Dive right at me

I feed them some hot chips

That was a bad idea

More and more come,

I started a war.

I dive into the ocean

Sand all through my hair,

My eyes start to burn

And I quickly jump out.

My car wont start

I can't leave,

The seagulls swarm around me

Oh god help me please.

Family Dinner Poem

Family Dinner Poem

We gather round the table

To discuss and digest the day

The delightful plates of goodness

Chasing hunger pangs away

My family gorge their meal

Savoring every bite

For dessert a pumpkin pie

Golden brown and spicy sweet

What a fine dinner treat!
