Thanksgiving

Basically all I will be doing is staying home, and seeing family on Thanksgiving. 

Job

Life Guard

For the past few days I have been scouring the internet for jobs people my age are prone to get. The job I found the most interesting was a lifeguard. This job suits people like me because I love to help others. Also since I'm young, it would be easier for me to save someone from drowning than some eighty year old man trying to save them. The steps I would go through in order to prepare for an interview would be, research basic life guarding techniques and research what the qualifications are for lifeguards. It isn't too difficult to find applications for this job online, especially right before summer time. Granted it may be difficult to actually get the job because many people my age apply for life guarding jobs. But that doesn't mean that it is impossible to get, you'd just have to be persistent while searching for the job. 

Homeless to Harvard

This was by far one of the most inspirational movies I have seen. Seeing an individual start from nothing and graduating from Harvard is probably one of the biggest successes in today's society. My favorite part of the movie was when Liz walked away from her friend Chris in order to change her life. In this scene Chris portrays Liz's past life, which consisted of being homeless and never doing anything about it. So Liz had a choice to either stay back and stay with her friend, or move on and become the successful woman that she knew she could be. If I was in her position, it would have been very difficult for me to be as resilient as her, but when it came down to it, I probably would have gone to school to get my education.
