Imagine the Impossible

     I believe that this movie was to try to make the viewer buy the product by trying to make it seem like the impossible is possible when they buy this product. The producer(s) of this movie do this by making everyone seem like the young girl is insane when she mentions all of the features on the phone. The producer(s) also put in an emotional scene where the mother of the girl cries because she believes that there is something wrong with her daughter. This immediately draws the viewer in and grabs their attention because they want to see what is wrong with the girl. This scene in the short commercial may make the viewer think that the commercial is part of a movie, so the viewer will not automatically change the channel, or in this case, go to another site.  

         I interpreted the main theme in this movie as being that if you think outside of the box then almost anything is possible. I believe that this theme makes the viewer want to buy this product because it amazes the viewer when they see how many features are available on this phone.   the-essay.wmv

Who is the Most Influencial Person in Your Life?

 Query: “Outside of parents who has influenced your life more than anyone else; who had an impact on your life and what was it about that person that meant something to you?”

So many people in my life inspire me, so it was really hard to pick just one person. If I could one person though, then I would pick my Grandmother.

When my Grandmother was around the age of 28, she came over to the United States from Brazil because she wanted to have the opportunites that exist in the United States, that she wouldn’t be able to get in Brazil. I think that my Grandmother had to be a courageous person to make this move because when she moved into the United States she didn’t anyone and had to start her life all over again. However, I am thankful that she made this move because if she didn’t then I would have never been born, since she got married and had twelve children in the United States.

Unfortunately, about 4 years ago my Grandmother passed away, so I didn’t get to spend as much time with her as I wanted to. However, I writing this post made me think of all the great memories that I had with her, which made me thankful; which is especially imoportant around this time of the year.

“I wonder……”

I wonder how much my life would change if I learned online instead of going to school.

 Thinking about this question made me realize that I would rather prefer going to a school rather then learning online. One reason why I feel this way is because I would not know as many people and therefore have less friends.Another negative part of this situation is my life would not be as valuabe as it is today because I wouldn’t get to learn as much because there would not be much social interaction and therefore I would not get to be engaged in class discussions and not as active a student as I am right now, all leading to not having as good as a job that I wish for after I finish school.
