5) mission statement

I want to take every opportunity I can get. I want to see the world, see how others live, and work. I want more than anything to share all of this with children that I can call my own. I want to find the one I am meant to be with forever, and I would sacrifice everything to find her.

3) Post 5 inspirational/educational movies or documentaries you wish the world would see.

a) Saving Private Ryan: Takes place in World War 2. A group of soldiers are sent out to bring a soldier named Ryan to safety after his three other brothers are killed in action. They end up finding him, but he refuses to leave the bridge he is protecting, so they all fight with him and protect the bridge. I chose this movie because it is a very heroic story, that also captures the very realistic tragedies of war.

b)The Bucket List: Two men with cancer, one extremely wealthy, and one middle class. They decide to squeeze as much as they can in the remainder of their lives, and using the rich ones money, they travel all over the world, climbing mountains, driving fast cars, skydiving etc.... I picked this film because it shows you how short life really is.

c)Pay It Forward: A teacher makes an assignment to change the world, and a student takes it very seriously. He makes a system called "pay it forward", where you help three people, and each of those people has to help three people, and so on. Although has a very tragic ending, the movie is about generosity, kindness, and gratitude. I picked this film because it shows what things would be lie if everybody was nice to each other.

d)Prom Night In Mississippi: Morgan Freeman tells a school with a black and white segregated proms, that he will pay for they prom if they have just one integrated prom. It turns out that the kids always wanted an integrated prom, but the parents wouldn't allow it. I chose this documentary because it shows  the power people can have when they speak up and work together.

e)Food inc.: A documentary about where our food comes from and the food propaganda that hides the food process. Large companies taking out smaller healthy ones. Health and safety are thrown aside for nearly every aspect of the food industry. The food is made like crap, and coated in a golden rapper. I picked this documentary because it shows what a little awareness can do.

1) What inspires you to get up in the morning?

There is a reason I don't wake up on the weekends. Simply because I don't have to(unless I'm hungry). But on the weekdays, I actually have a reason to get up; I like to see my friends at school, and do school activities with them. I would much rather go to school than play video games at home all day. Also I think that education is very important in my future, as well as others.
