Assignment #4

Once I graduate from OSS I plan on taking a year off to work and save my money. During this year that I take off, I plan to move out of this town and decide what I want to do career-wise. I'm really undecided about what I will do in the future so I hope that by the end of the year I will have an idea of what interests me. I want to find a job that I will love, that I won't dislike later on in life. I'm interested in working with small children, or interior design. My goal for myself in the next fourteen months or so I will have figured out what I would like to go to school for.

Assignment #3

If I were to choose the Grammy's Winner for album of the Year, I think I would choose Lady Gaga's- The Fame Monster. I would have chosen this album over the rest because the whole album is done very well. Almost all of the songs have been played numerous times on the radio and have been stuck in our heads consistently. I think this album was very well produced and would be very deserving of the Grammy. The voice, acoustics and lyrics to Gaga's CD is created with an exotic flair that is the right kind of CD to come out at this time. Her music is adored by kids, teens, and adults which is an amazing feat to do with someone so quirky and unique as herself. She is able to write lyrics that can take us out of the time we're in and get us smiling and dancing around. Some of her music videos are a little crazy, but being like she is, she's able to show kids and others to get rid of self esteem issues. She's showing them to be there self and do what they wish. If others don't like it, well then it shouldn't matter because the only person you have to please in life is yourself. As crazy as Lady Gaga is, I think she is a good, honest person with a personality that can help other people see their true selves. She would be very deserving of this award because she shows how dedicated she is to her fans by the insane concerts and outfit ideas that she comes up with. Everyone who created this album should be proud that what they added to make this album the way it is, has helped the songs be huge chart toppers.

Assignment #2

In the following scene, the two flavor creators are transported to the Cowboys Stadium in Arlington, Texas. Flavor A, Onion Rings N' Ketchup was given to the Pittsburgh Steelers. Flavor B, Buffalo Wings N' Ranch, was then given to the other team the Green Bay Packers. Both teams received bags of chips before the game. The winner of the XLV Super Bowl would determine which flavor of chips would stay. At the end of the fourth quarter the Green Bay Packers won 31-25. Flavor B was then determined as the better flavor. The creator of the Buffalo Wings N' Ranch received tickets to the next Super Bowl, while the creator of Onion Rings N' Ketchup was evaporated with the chips into thin air.

Assignment #1

The picture I have decided to choose for my first assignment is of Taylor Swift. I love listening to her songs because many of us can relate to her lyrics. In some way or another we have all felt the emotions that she has written about. Taylor Swift is a big inspiration to me. She is a strong, young girl who is close to my age. Even though she is famous, she has experienced similar life situations as I have. Not all of her songs can identify with my life but they have taught me how important it is to be there for others.
At any time of the day I can listen to her songs and be in a great mood. She has songs for many kinds of emotions. When you're happy, sad, fearless, and ready for there to be a difference in your life. Taylor writes the thoughts our hearts and minds can't put into words. We all feel things similarly and she has a gift with which she is able to let others know that someone in the world is feeling the same kind of emotion as you. You are never alone, there will always be somebody who has suffered or endured the same things, whether it be a century, a week, a day, or even a second ago. Her lyrics can empower a person to get through many situations. There is so many great things I could write about the positive influence Taylor Swift has on young and older people. I could write a thousand words but the picture above says it all.
