The First Job, Photography, and Coffee

In the next 12 chapters Connor Franta talks about topics like how he broke his arm, the creativity he put in his videos, how teenagers have to learn to say no to bad influences like drugs and alcohol, and my favorite chapter his addiction to coffee. As the book progresses its obvious that his personality shows more and he is not talking about his carrer anymore he is talking about his personal experiences and what he likes and what he doesn't. in the first chapters he used to talk about his experiences and phases of his life but now are just about him and things he like doing like photograph with is a very important piece in his life and if you go to his instagram you will see this and you would get what i mean by this.

"Every second seems like an eternity if someone you love is in trouble" (Franta,89)

I like this quote and it is from a time Connor was a Life guard and even though the kid that was in trouble wasn't someone he knew he still put this quote which shows what a big heart he has and how nice he is. I also put this quote because it has happened to me that when someone you care about is in trouble each minute feels like an hour and is a drowning feeling that i believe everyone experiences at one time or another.

"Sometimes that's all it takes to find meaning in what you are doing" (Franta,90)

I like this quote because it ties up with one of the quotes i put in my first post that said that we are in earth with a purpose and then the question is how do i find purpose or how i find the meaning in the things i am doing and things like the kid who needed help from Connor we get those moments that put everything in perspective and can change your point of view.

The book is great and the quotes are in pages so close because you can actually find a good quote in every single page and they are quotes with meaning they are not just there to increase the word count they really want to transfer a meaning and that is something i really appreciate from a writer because it makes each page special and with a different lesson.
