thanksgiving break 2014

my plans for thanksgiving break consist of hanging out with my family and friends, eating a great thanksgiving dinner, black Friday shopping, and getting extra sleep and playing volleyball. I will also be running and working out my abs too. And I will be making sure that I am getting my homework done. But I hope this thanksgiving break is a good one!

job: sonic

For a job, I selected Sonic which is a fast food drive in. They begin hiring at 15 and I think that it would be a fun job to do. I'd probably be a server at sonic and my job would be to take orders and make accurate change quickly, serve the guest with a positive and enthusiastic attitude, package all menu items and check for product quality and consistency, prepare drinks, slushes, and ice cream treats. I would also have to prepare food orders, cook on the grill, operate the fry station as needed and cleaning the drive in which include trash disposal, mopping, and washing the dirty areas. this job in particular is looking for friendly and welcoming workers who enjoy providing pleasant and courtesy to the guest and team members who have a passion for working at Sonic. This job is also looking for individuals who are team players and committed to keeping the Sonic drive-in clean and nice looking. I would like to work here because Sonic is all about having fun while working and gaining a sense of accomplishment along the way. And not only will I be working with fantastic people, I will also be getting money and who doesn't like money? They also have flexible hours and they will work with your schedule and they have radical uniforms, well at least I think that they're cool! But I am considering this job for Summer 2015.

homeless to harvard: liz murray

I really enjoyed the movie "Homeless to Harvard". It made me appreciate what I had more considering that the main character, Elizabeth was eating out of the trashcan, had no where to sleep, and both of her parents were on drugs. my favorite part of the movie was when Liz decided that she wanted to stop living the homeless life and try to get in to school. She eventually received a scholarship from "New York Times" to go to Harvard. She was so happy because of this achievement and she chased after her goals and not to mention that she finished high school in only two years. She wanted to be different than her mom, dad , and grandmother and actually go out and do something with her life. And she did, with hard work and dedication, you can accomplish your goals.
