Review

I have chosen to write a review of Adele's CD, 21. I love her as an artist and i know she has been through alot and has put alot of emotion into this cd.

For my advertisement analysis project i have chosen to do this Above The Influence commercial. I think it gets the point across that being under the influence of drugs and alcohol can strongly affect those around us, and also how much it affects the teen population today. 

Thanks To Modern Science...

I think the article about people being convicted of a crimes they did not commit was awesome and is a great example of how far science has come even in the past 20 years. After spending so many years in prison and being just days away from execution, DNA evidence proved multiple people innocent. 

Father

Father-  a male parent. (according to dictionary.com) 


I live with my mother and father. I always have. 
I have a mom, but i don't have a dad. I have a father. 

I want a wife too!

After reading I Want a Wife by Judy Brady, i officially want a wife. I think mothers and wives never get the credit they deserve unless its Mother's Day or something. I think even though the article had a sarcastic tone to it, the author really got the point across. Wives and mothers do a lot to provide for their husbands and families and I personally feel they don't get the credit they deserve.

Literacy Project

For the topic of my literacy project, I chose the most difficult thing I have to deal with on a day to day basis, my anxiety disorder. I have had anxiety for as long as i can remember, i just never really knew what it was, until i started experiencing a lot of depression and nervousness over things that anyone else i talked to had no problem with. I was diagnosed with an anxiety disorder 2 years ago, after many visits to the doctor wondering why my heart was always beating so fast, or why i had a hard time breathing. Finally i began seeing a therapist (who diagnosed me) and i've been going ever since. Having to deal with my anxiety day in and day out is completely exhausting, mentally and physically, but on the positive side it has taught me many things. Such as learning to control physical things, like breathing exercises or psychological things like overcoming fears of even the simplest things. Eventually i got to the point of not going specific places that i thought triggered anxiety attacks for me, such as the Braintree Plaza, i hate escalators. But thankfully i'm back to my normal shopping habits and have learned different ways to calm myself down and realize everything will be okay eventually. I don't expect anyone that has never experienced anxiety to know what it feels like, but like every other obstetrical, you can overcome it slowly. With some work of course.
