What I Learnt From the Personal Finance Unit

 The personal finance unit taught me a bit of things but there are some things from it that really stood out to me. One of the things that I somehow didn't know before the unit was what credit cards actually are. I learnt that the money on credit cards isn't actually your own money and that it is loaned. I also learned about how interest can be a big problem for some people because when people choose to repay money as slow as possible, it makes the amount they need to repay so much higher than the original price.  After the unit, I know that I should be very aware with my money and to avoid things like overspending. I know that I shouldn't be pressured to buy things from other people or advertisements just because of the thought that since they have it, I should too. I also know that I should look into everything before I spend because something can look good but actually be awful, or something can look like a really good deal but actually be a terrible deal. So I learnt a lot of valuable things from the personal finance unit and I will now make sure to use this information that I learnt to help me in the future.

Blinded by the Light Blog

 I enjoyed watching the movie Blinded by the Light . It had a lot of meaning to it and Javed was a cool character. I saw the problems that race caused in the UK and how some Pakistani families run. Javed's passion is to be a writer and he works really hard at it and even goes to America to give a speech on his writing. For a while, Javed's dad did not approve of his writing but then Javed proved his dad that it was actually a good thing. Javed's dad is the main thing that makes it harder for him to pursue his passion. Another thing that hinders him with his passion is the racism since many people in the UK disapprove of Pakistanis in the time the movie takes place. Also, Javed's only support was his English teacher who at first he wasn't as close with so he didn't have much support until he became closer with his teacher. Javed's muse is Bruce Springsteen. Javed loved him because he is amazing with the words in his music so Javed loves that he's good wit...
