Reading Vanessa doesn’t want to go home for Thanksgiving, was like going back in time.

My freshman year, I did go home, but traveling for a few days and coming back so quickly felt like whiplash.

So in my sophomore year, I wised up and spent Thanksgiving on campus. During that time, I was able to catch up on both my assignments, rest as well as prepare for finals.

I was also able to pool resources with other friends on campus and we had our own Thanksgiving dinner.

No matter what your plans are this week, make sure your surrounded with people who care.

Start with something. Who knows where it might lead? #latism

Up & Down with Production Assistant Caesar Rivera

Looks like Rosie has new competition in town—and he’s on her payroll. Meet Caesar Rivera, a crafty production assistant who’s transformed an elevator into the set of his own talk show. With guests like Andy Dick, Tracy Morgan and Leisha Hailey, Caesar’s star is rising…to the second floor.

I was so inspired when I saw this. This just goes to show that you can start out with anything and there’s no telling where it can lead, even if its to the set, and eventually the stage of the Rosie Talk show.

How an act of kindness turned into making a difference #payingitforward

The guy ahead of me at Starbucks the other day offered me a free cup of coffee. Apparently, with every pack of coffee, one gets a free cup of coffee & he didn’t want it. In turn, I brought a www.createjobsforusa.org wristband, which helps create jobs in the USA.

Every time I look at this bracelet, I will not only remember the act of kindness I encountered, but I will also remember how many people, including our veterans,  who are in need to work.
