Qoute.


This quote is important to me because it reminds me to go on with my life dispite all the hardships , because in the end  you learn from your mistakes and it makes you stronger. This quote is for anyone who has been through ruff times, which is most of us. This qoute also tells us to not give up on yourself. It is a simple, easy to understand quote but it's difficult to get to the point where you become stronger, but it teaches you to keep moving forward.

Easter.

Easter has always been a really fun holiday for me. Especially when I was younger because my parents would always take me to a big easter egg hunt. It used to be my favorite holiday because of all the candy I would get. My family and I go to mass every Easter. Sometimes we attend the Easter Vigil, which is really long, but it's fun to go and watch people get baptized. Now since Im older there isn't as much joy as their used to be. But now I am able to watch my little niece do the the easter egg hunt. My favorite thing about Easter is that we don't have school for two weeks.

future job

My ideal future job is to help children and babies. I would really like to be a nurse that helps  children and/or babies.  I have also thought about the idea of being a niku nurse. A niku nurse takes care of the new born baby when it is first born. I understand that there are a lot of emotional aspects of this job, but I feel that despite the hardships I would face I would really feel like Im making a difference. If this doesn't work out for me I think I might want to be a dentist. But my ultimate goal is to help children. I also would like to work at a children's hospital, such as St. Jude. I would really enjoy making the children feel better and get them laughing. If I knew that I made a child happy for the whole day it would allow me to feel self accomplishment, and it would make my day better as well. So hopefully I'll have enough strength to do a job that requires emotional hardship. 

Service project

For my service hours I have been working at Lake View Museum with the summer camp program. I found out about this thru the park district book. I have done it for two summers and I only need an hour  more to complete my 100. I think i will end up working a week longer so I can get even more hours. At the camp I help little children do their activites and I watch them when they go outside.  Last year when I helped I was working with two of my best friends. Our job was to go around the classrooms and give the children their snacks. It was really fun and easy because once we were done we just had to wrap sandwiches for lunch and we were done for the day. I really liked working with the kids, and I hope to do the same this summer.
