Reaction to the Videos about Malala

When watching the videos about Malala I could tell that education to her meant a lot and she put her life at stake to ensure her and other girls in Pakistani

could get an education. This love for school can be lost in American kids because we see school as something we have to do everyday and don't have any choice about going. There are only certain times that we realize how important an education is and when you have those times they are special because you understand how lucky we are for getting a "free" education.

I had one of those time a few months ago. I was volunteering for my church at the Catholic Multicultural Center. I made and then served food to the homeless people that came to get a warm meal. When I was behind the food helping serve the food and just seeing them and saying a few words to them, I could see that these people didn't have an education and they had to suffer due to that. Then after everyone got their food I went out and talked to some of them. They are humans just like me but they where not lucky enough to get/finish their education for many different reason. That experience made me think to myself and I know when I am older I don't want to have to be like them. One way I can help myself not become homeless is to get an education so from now on whenever I don't want to go school I think about the people I meet. That always get me to tell myself that school is something I should be happy about going to.

I think that if any kid was thinking about dropping out of school or any kid in general that just doesn't like going to school everyday should watch this video. It will show them how lucky they are to be living in a place where schooling is given to them. Her story opened my eyes and will open any kids eyes that also listens to her story.
