Recount of Aspiration speakers

Walt: Recount key points and facts from a speech or keynote speaker, with detailed information.

This morning our whole Year 7 and 8 block had 2 very special guest to talk to us about A.I.M ( Aspiration, Inspiration, and Motivation. Andrew came along and he brought two speakers to talk to us. Their names were Arizona and Kenese, Arizona achieved her job at Disneyland in Florida and Kenese got to join a business in Auckland called “I have a Dream”.

Kenese was talking about his past and where he came from. Kenese's mother raised him all by herself and that he never had a father while he was growing. They moved to Auckland, NZ and that Kenese could have a better education and that his mother never wanted him to go through what she has gone through. Around his area, there were gangs like B (Bloods) and C (Crips) and that they will always hang around the school gate. 

Arizona was raised in Auckland, NZ and she had 2 older brothers and 1 younger brother. She was accomplishing her dream then one day she got the chance to go to Disneyland in Florida and work with all the Disney characters. Before that even happened, she had Aspiration, Inspiration, and Motivation and she succeed in her big dream. 

Arizona was talking about how she accomplished her dreams at working in Disneyland and that she got to meet all the Disney characters, she even got to have breakfast with some of the Disney princess. Arizona said “If they point sideways with only one finger and they got caught by someone then they will get a warning from there manager. That is why they have to point with two fingers.” She got her dream job because she followed these three key points which is Aspiration, Inspiration, and Motivation.

Kenese has Inspired me that no matter what people say to you like ‘You can’t do it or they say that you will never get that job and draw a line between you and your dream’ then you have to prove to them that they can’t bring you down and that you have people supporting you till the end, but the biggest supporters is your parents. 

What I am passionate about is to have a better school life and work hard on my subjects so that I can get a better job when I grow up. My dream is to become a Police so that I can make our world a more safe place for others. I would like to be a Police cop because I have been inspired on how they work hard so that their is no violence in our world to make be even more safer. 

Arizona was talking about how she accomplished her dreams at working in Disneyland and that she got to meet all the Disney characters, she even got to have breakfast with some of the Disney princess. She got her dream job because she followed these three key points which is Aspiration, Inspiration, and Motivation.

Thank you for sharing your experience to us about how to accomplish your dream and that people are supporting your back till the end. I would also like to thank Andrew Patterson for bringing the wonderful speakers to teach us more about Dreaming Big.
