• Report # 925

  Hey everyone, I hope that you've all been having a great week so far. On Monday I went to the school and read over some material for the conversation class and I got a shirt to wear as well. I was there for a couple of hours and I was given a list of topics to use as well. I had the first conversation class on Tuesday evening and the topic was "famous people." The class had 7 people, and just two of them were guys..... and they were the two that didn't pay attention at all.

  I definitely learned how popular Justin Bieber was. I'll never understand why but the younger girls just seem to love him. Overall it went well and the people in the class said everything was good how I did it. I have another class tonight, and I was thinking it would be the same people, but it might be a totally different group so I might discuss the same topic again. It's fun to be able to help out the students and I think it's good for me as well. I'll definitely be looking for more actual jobs though as that is really important.

  Yesterday I had a really dull and boring days. There was another storm outside and it was absolutely pouring during the morning. Once again there was a river and lake outside of my house for a little while before the rain stopped and a lot of water dried up. Dora came over for a while in the evening and we just talked a lot and I think she's agrees with me of the things that I need to do. So today I'll just be job searching and getting ready for the class in the evening and that is about it.

  Whenever the economy goes down the drain and people have less money to buy things, certain companies suffer. People won't be buying new cars, they won't be going out to restaurants as often, and they won't be taking vacations like they once did. There are always things that people will continue buying however no matter how bad the economy is. For example we'll still be buying food from the grocery store, kleenex and items such as toothpaste and shampoo.

  This shows the difference between "wants" and "needs." So obviously the people who are able to offer a service or good that is an item that people "need" more so than an item that people "want" will be in for a much easier time during any type of recession, and they'll never have to worry too much about struggling through the tough times. For the next question:

  Do you think it's still possible to come up with a good or service that people will "need" or are basically all of the remaining business opportunities having a good or service that people might "want." ?

  I'll leave you all with some pictures from Hermosillo and the zoo there. Take care and I'll talk to you all on Sunday, bye for now.
