Waste Land

Mrs. Mystrena first brought up the movie Waste Land I was thinking that it was going to a terrible movie, but I was wrong. I couldn't believe how inspiring the movie was. I was thinking that this movie was just going to show how the people feel in the landfill. It was much more than that. As I watched the movie my opinion changed. I thought these people were just worthless workers, but they were than that. They worked hard for their money, and they weren't garbage pickers they were

There were many ways Vik Muñiz helped the people of Jardim Gramacho. He gave them money by making paintings of them and auctioning them for money for the landfill. Also, he made them feel good about themselves. Vik told them that they weren't trash pickers they were helping the world, and they should be noticed. Finally, he told the trash pickers that they weren't worthless they should have a chance to express how they feel.

I personally agree that its better to have a honest job. Why would you be a drug dealer, or a prostitute? So, I would rather have a honest job. I wouldn't care what other people think of me. If I know I am doing the right thing I feel proud of myself

Google 20%

When you think of the children today, you think of not hard working lazy, and they hate school. I personally think they have a right to hate school. Just think about it every year you learn about the same things. I guarntee that more than half of the kids in our school will not have a job doing with math. Kids want to learn what they think is interesting because thats what they will want to be when they grow up. So, this google project is the perfect way to express your ideas. Kids can finally decide to learn something they want to major in. This is why Google 20% is the best thing to do.
