Job Hunting

I found a job at lancaster movies. They hire at the age of 16 but they prefer 17 because of the late shifts. However, I work at Braums right now so i feel like that is enough experience for them to strongly consider me. I'm used to working late on a school night, and I know the hard labor of balancing schools and work. The reason I leaned more towards the movies then any other job is because I'm tired of fast food places, and they pay $10.00 a hour. The hard thing about applying online is the manager does not know of you at all, so there is no difference between you and he other person that has applied. So if i was to apply for the movies online I would go there every week and check up on my application until they hire me or tell me the job is already taken.

homeless to harvard

The movie "Homeless to Harvard" is very effective it shows people that anything is possible with just hard work and dedication. It also teaches us to be grateful for everything we have, because there are people that go through worse everyday. My favorite part of the movie is when liz's mom is begging them for the money to buy drugs and liz gives it to her because she would do anything to see her mom smile. I like this part because she was so desperate for sometime of affection and she would do anything to see her mom happy, even if she knows it could hurt her mom in the long run.
Also, liz was very strong to be 15 and she did what she had to do to be successful. She stayed up late everyday doing work, her life basically revolved around school. If I was in her situation I would have done the same thing because growing up in that environment would show me I wouldn't want to spend my whole life like that.
