Reflection:

          Acupressure seems a little interesting to me. I may want to learn bit more about it. It catches my eye because I can help others as well as myself if I become an acupressurist. It is a well-paying job and does not require much to become one. I would want to have this career as a backup if I don’t pursue a career in what I’m really striving for.
