Tear jerker right? I know my eyes got watery, but I'm sap when it comes to these things.
Watching this video makes me wish I could put on a super hero cape and save the world. Some one needs to do it so why can't it be me? I have always felt like there are so many awful things in the world and no one seems to do much about it, but I have never felt like there was much I could do about it being one girl.
I now feel like there is a whole hell of a lot I can do about these things. I am currently getting my bachelors degree in Event Management and this is going to provide me with exactly the right opportunity to start changing the world. This is my life goal; to make a difference in this complex world of ours.
I will be planning fund raising events for the Make-A-Wish Foundation this semester for my internship and I couldn't be happier.
In the future I hope to plan more fund raising events, maybe start my own website (or use the power of Blogger); Alice vs. the World: One Girl, One Goal; Make a Difference. The website would be a hub for info on any non profit or charitable projects I am currently working on.
There are so many ways that events can be used to help under privileged and poverty stricken communities, for example South Africa hosting the 2010 FIFA World Cup did wonders for their economy because of everyone who came to see the game brings money from outside of the community and spent it in South Africa, putting more money in circulation for South Africa's economy (we learned about this in class). So if poorer countries were able to host big events they stand to benefit greatly. I hope to help them do this one day.
Until next time darlings :)

Thanks for posting this video. It is a tear jerker and hopefully a motivator for people, young and old, to help someone, somewhere, at every opportunity possible.
