Mona Lisa Smile Plot Line Prediction

Mona Lisa Smile is a film about an art history teacher who starts teaching at an all women's school. The student's only goals are to get married and the teacher teaches them to have different goals for themselves. While teaching her students to be more in life, she also finds herself and discovers her true love. That is what I think the movie, Mona Lisa Smile is about.

High School vs. College Exams

High school testing is relatively easier than college is when it comes to tests, quizzes and exams. High schools around the nation tend to test their students based upon the materials that they have already learned. For instance, in a certain math class if the students learn a certain type of problem than they will most likely be tested on that exact same problem but with different numbers. In college, the students will get a lecture from their professor. Next, although it depends on the class and the professor, the students will most likely be expected to learn the material by themselves and then be prepared to be tested on it. In college, the students are tested on material that they haven't specifically learned, but based off of information that they have learned. Also, in high school the students are tested more frequently and with less information, whereas in college the tests contain more information and are seldomly given. Tests in college are most definitely going to be more difficult, seeing as it is a higher level. The way to prepare for each level of exams is to study avidly and with much consideration, not procrastinate on assignments and have a positive attitude about what the learning material is.

Christmas Break

Over Christmas break I am planning to visit my relatives, such as my grandparents, aunts and uncles. I also have to complete some last minute Christmas shopping for some of my family members. Decorating our house and Christmas tree are some traditions that my family likes to do. Also, baking Christmas foods with my friends  I am looking forward to relaxing and enjoying the time that I have with my family. I would like to receive various items for Christmas, such as iTunes gift cards, books, clothes, jewelry, and a new laptop.This is what I am doing over Christmas break.

     

All About College

By attending college, I hope to acquire a degree in a profitable field. I am going to college because I think that it is important to continue learning every day, and attending college will aid me in that goal. When choosing a college I have to consider what type of work or study that I am interested in. I will seek my friend's and families input in which college I should attend, as well as what my major should be. In the future my goal is to be a speech/language pathologist and college will help me attain this goal by providing me with the studies that I need, as well as with the degree itself.

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.
