Thanksgiving

I am not really positive on what I am doing for thanksgiving, but I know that I will be spending it with my family. We (my family) will be eating together and enjoying each other's company. Having friends and family over to think about what we are thankful about and to fellowship in Christ together during Thanksgiving is one of the things that I look forwards to during the year. I will almost definitely be going black Friday shopping with my friends this year during Thanksgiving break. That is what I will be doing for Thanksgiving break.

Virtual Job

I found a job at Buffalo Wild Wings as a greeter. This job does not require much, except the employee has to be the age of sixteen and must be authorized to work in the United States. In the ob description, Buffalo Wild Wings mentions that, "If you enjoy working in a fun, high-energy environment with a growing company where the game is always on, we invite you to bring your enthusiasm and passion to Buffalo Wild Wings. Come join a team that is all about sports, great food, family and friends!" This job is appropriate for me, considering that I fit all of the requirements in the job description, and the job is part-time. The location of this Buffalo Wild Wings is also a plus, considering that I live relatively close to the place of work. To prepare for a possible interview for this job, I would create a resume of past job experiences that I have participated in. I would also make sure that I came across happy and polite, as the job description seems to require. Finding this job online was not very difficult. I just searched possible part-time jobs for high school students, and this job seemed to fit the mold. There were also many other jobs that seemed interesting and worth looking into if one was actually considering applying for a job.

"Homeless to Harvard"

The movie, "Homeless to Harvard", is very inspirational and eye-opening. I don't know if I would have had the courage that Liz possessed which allowed her to step out of all of the stereotypes that were holding her down. My favorite part of the film was when she realized that she wanted to get an education after her mother died. I like this part because it is the turning point in the movie where instead of going downhill, she was finally making upwards bounds. It must have been very difficult to complete four years of high school in only two while working a job, but if I had a motivation like Liz did than I like to think that I would have worked hard to receive an education like she did.
