Homeless To Harvard

The film " Homeless To Harvard" was a very interesting film. If someone would've told me this story and I've never the seen the movie or heard of this story I would've never believed them. I would think that this is so impossible and there's no way you could be homeless all your life then all of a sudden get a scholarship to get into Harvard. It seems so unrealistic, but now that I watched it and understood the process it took for her to get to where she is, it makes more sense to me now. It's kind of sad how her mom died. I wouldn't have expected her mom to die because of aids. This tells that if a homeless woman with no support from her family for her to succeed, I shouldn't have no type of excuse to not be successful. It also gives me another reason to not do drugs or go near any type of drug. My favorite part of this film was when her friend tried to bring her down and instead of Liz Murray going down with her and becoming homeless again she decided to get her friend to be successful with her. Her friend didn't want to go to school or anything. That was my favorite part of the film because she was maturing and she knew what she wanted to do and what she had to be successful. Even though she came out of an unstable home, she still focused and worked hard to be successful. I admire her most for that.
