Thanksgiving Break!

For Thanksgiving, we are planning on going to  my aunts house.  It kind of gets boring over there because my cousins just sit in their room either playing the Xbox or on the computer so I just sit there on my phone. On the other hand, there's food! This year I am thankful for my funny and positive minions I call friends (:

"Are You Orange Enough?"

One job I found was a Whataburger Team Member. The team member is basically making sure the customer is satisfied with quality service. For this job you will need to have good communication skills and are able to follow rules. I think this is a good job for someone our age and experience because it's seems like a good starter job, if you have never worked before. I also think that most of us are capable of having this job. I would like to work there because it seems fun and simple and I think I am capable of working positively with a team. I know a few people who have worked there and places similar so I think it will be a good experienced since I've never worked before, and because I live really close to one. To prepare for an interview, I would ask my parents to practice any sample questions with me. I would also ask my friends who have worked about the interview experience. It wasn't hard finding this job at all. There are a lot of websites for open jobs, especially teen jobs so it was very easy. I think almost anyone can find a job online because most things are online now and instead of trying to think or remember stores one at a time that might be hiring in your city, you can just search for open jobs all at once.

Homeless 2 Harvard

I thought the film was very inspiring and could inspire people who lived in similar situations and need a push to succeed. Her story would also have such an impact because her past that lead her to go to Harvard sounds impossible so it's a very shocking life changing story.  My favorite part was when Liz took Chris to school but Chris thought going to school was "not for people like them" and she didn't give it a chance. I liked it because even though she had the opportunity, she still decided not to go because she thought it wan't right or that it didn't matter (I'm not explaining this good, sorry).  I think I would have been inspired to break out of how I was living and get an education, but I don't think I would have known how.  So, I think it is amazing that someone can go through this and still have a drive to change their future.
