ACT OF KINDNESS
So for this assignment I decided to go more towards the act of kindness side because I think there can always be more acts of giving in this world. I know I wanted to do something with the homeless community in Isla Vista because I am familiar with a lot of their stories, especially the younger crowd. I was going to make cookies, but I wanted to do something that was a little more substantial so I decided on something I could afford, peanut-butter and jelly sandwiches. I made 20 peanut-butter and jelly sandwiches and put two on each plate and brought three of my friends with me so they could help me carry the plates. I went over to the park in Isla Vista also referred as "Bum Park," and I approached the first homeless person I saw. His reaction was a little different than what I expected he was not very excited and he just said, "Uh yeah I guess." That was fine, and I found a group of homeless people that were a little younger and they were very thankful and even agreed to take a picture. Then also I ran into an infamous homeless man that is very well-known in Isla Vista, Pirate. He was also very thankful and we talked for a little bit. This act of kindness was actually really fun and I felt really good afterwards, I think it would be a great thing to do every weekend!
