My Thanksgiving
I don't usually do much for Thanksgiving, but I almost always go to my Aunt's house. When I'm there I hangout with my family and my cousins. We just sit around a fire outside hanging out with each other. This Thanksgiving is the first one that my family will celebrate on our own. This Saturday we're going to throw a small Thanksgiving party for our immediate family.

Old Navy Job Application
The job that I found while looking online was a job for Old Navy. This is an appropriate job for kids my age and grade because this job is willing to hire kids the age of sixteen and up. Also this job will provide kids around my age with a steady source of income to pay for hanging out with friends, gas, or with things such as the SAT/ACT. Something even better that this job will provide for us, is experience. Since that is the main problem with sixteen year old kids getting hired is experience, this will help to remove that problem. You could prepare for a possible interview by dressing up in your best clothes, whether that is something like a tuxedo or just something stylish that looks good on you. Make sure you look very nice and smell great, as most companies won't hire people who smell bad and/or look like a homeless person. Next is be on your best behavior and make sure that you are well prepared to answer any and all questions that they may ask you. The last thing I would do is make sure that you are not at all hungry or thirsty, this might inhibit your thought process or make it harder for you to speak at key moments. It is not very hard to find a job online. All you have to do is start off by finding places that will hire you with your current age and education. Next all you really have to do is find a way to apply online (probably through some job sight like http://www.snagajob.com/). Then you just have to give the company your resume and information and wait for a call or email back. If that doesn't work then you need to just keep trying and not lose hope, someone will eventually hire you.

My thoughts on 'Homeless to Harvard"
I liked the film, it had a good story and it is fun to learn about other peoples lives. My favorite part would have to be around the beginning when they are fighting their mother for the money for groceries. The reason why is because it helps to show what her home life really was like and how her mom treated her when she was on drugs. It also showed that the dad was at the point that he was used to things like that going on, so he was not worried about it. I personally think that if I was raised in that household, I would go to school. Although I may not have made my mind to go to Harvard I think I would've made a good life for myself out of that. I think the only reason why I would be able to get through that would be the fact that my family still loved me even if no one else did.
