Surfs Up

I think she was really brave during the rebuild of her life. After all that happened to her she still doesn't let that bring her down. I think that the fact that she went back to having a normal life like nothing happened was really great. Even though her story was all on the news he didn't let it get to her. She probably did want her arm back, but look at what a great role model she can be for little kids. Her story can be a good life lesson if she lets it be. She back surfing now doing what she loves. The one that surprises me is the fact that shes not traumatized by the water. But she brave,and we could all learn from her.

Teaching Chess and Life

I think that Carlos learned a lot of good life lessons from his mentor. Personally i don't have a adult figure that I look up too. Being in chess, and being with his mentor really helped him stay out of trouble.The article has a lot of really good morals. Someone needing help with life,friends,and family problem could really use a mentor like Chia. I have a hobby to keep me from the bad crowd that i used to hang out with. I sing so i joined a choir. It helps me relive stress. I also dance im on a church funded dance team. This hobbies really help take me away from all the extra stress so i can definitley feel where carlos is coming from.
