You Are Going Places

I work at a local restaurant in town as cashier, seater and waiter.

I went to work feeling     1.     . And to make things worse, I was busy that evening.

It’s the same thing over and over again.     2.     with customers who complain about their

food and where they are    3.   is too big or too small. Little things like that tend to  4.    

a lot of us     5.     but we manage to deal with it.

Three elderly ladies walked in and sat by the windows. It happened to be the very   6.    

near where I keep the dirty      7.    in the boxes. Trying to keep up with all the dirty tables,

customers leaving and coming in and    8.   running all over the house, it was crazy.  9.   

these elderly women were watching   10.    I was working to make sure every table was clean

and ready for the next customers.

When they    11.    their meals, I took their plates back to the kitchen. They talked to me

for a while about school, how I was doing, what  12.     I was in and what I planned to do in

the future.

    13.    they were leaving, they walked past me and one of them said to me in a    14.   

and gentle voice, “You are going places. And that was it.” They left the    15.    and I had tears

in my eyes, because they gave me    16.    to believe in myself. They    17.    my spirit from

being down and gave me a    18.    to keep on working hard.

People used to tell me that I couldn’t have a career in   19.   until I had a degree. I’m now

a co-anchor(联合支持人)of a student-produced television     20.     . And the best thing is:

I’m only 17 years old and I am a senior in high school.
