Entry #9: Yummy

I would say you are what you eat, if you eat nothing but "junk" food you will see the result in that and gain weight.  Also if you eat healthy you more likely to live a healthier lifestyle having a less chance to get  diabetes, having major heart problems, and many more. Having the urge to eat unhealthy food can be very tempting simply because it tastes so good and can very challenging for some people to not eat that type of food when it's all around us. The advertisement in unhealthy food have skyrocket, fast food industry sell more than $2,000,000,000 alone in one day. Eating healthy isn't greatest tatse versus fatening food, healthy foods usually consist of really low fat and that alone can change the tatse some people find it really good but majority of the people prefer the fat and sugars. 

Entry #8: GOALS

When setting goals I always try and look at the outcome whether it be short or long and just think how much it will effect me when I achieve it, what's next? Setting goals will always impact me in anything I want to do, and exceeding them always bring me joy knowing I did something I wanted to complete. The desire and dedication you put into to exceed that goal makes makes me feel good knowing you that I can do it and anything that comes my way. After exceeding a goal I never stop and think I done it all, but makes me want to conquer more and aim higher goals knowing how much it feels when achieving it and sometimes even proves others wrong. If you don't have goals I just think you don't have the desire to better yourself, putting yourself in a position where only YOU conquer it. Do you have goals ?

Entry #7: Fresh

You ever asked yourselves where your food comes from? The film "fresh" shows different ways how farming is being done to feed amierica. The purpose in this film is to show people how some farmers changed the agriculture world and how much they produce of what they grow. I would say the audience would be people just trying to find an idea where our food comes from, how they grow it and how they treat their herd. The tone in this film is very calm and informal, the film didn't have a big impact on me as it did for others but what really stood out to me was how much antibiotics and other pills that animals take just to grow BIGGER to get a great amount of food from it than an average animal would give naturally. After watching the film it has made me in some moments think about the meats I buy at the grocery store, the way they were taking cared of, and just how much did the pills affect on them because sometimes the meats are really huge than I would see in a farmers market. I say we shouldn't really care as much as it seems simply because the amount of people in the America, what will feed us, if we were to grow and herd like the old times (naturally) the food would be so high in price. The way food is in America it's so demanding and people want it for cheap as well to feed their family.

Entry #6: The good ol times

The time I was selected to play for the city in a all high school exhibition game had to be the best highlight of my high school year. On a Sunday night watching movies I received a text from one of best friends saying congrats and just trying to figure out what I did. Of course I responded thank you but then followed saying what did I do, and that's when she pulled a picture from the local news having my name posted for El Paso Greatest All-Star Game. It's game between east vs west and the city and all high school coaches get together and choose the players that deserve to play one more high school game. As soon I got the news I woke up my dad just telling him about the event and how excited I was, running around the house I think I woke up my sisters too but I didn't care. Being in that game meant a lot for me because my all my uncles that played  football made it and that's what motivated me to try and  succeed in the making list. On November 30th it was the first day of practice, having all this really skilled players that exceed in there position made the environment great just knowing we all wanted to beat the west side. Never had I been in a practice where we all went 100 percent just going at each other every practice play we had going felt like game speed, that's when I knew we wanted it the most. This exhibition game had gone for twenty four years before I made it but the last 11 years west side has dominated, that meant a lot to us because we knew we had better, faster, stronger players than they did so we had to beat them. As two weeks of practice go by it was media day, we had to mentor young athletes, take pictures, and have a team dinner, the term "time flys," I find that term very true so I cherished every moment I did the little we had. Come game  day I knew we were going to win from the get go just walking in the locker room you can feel it in the air we had music loud just hyping all of us up, having our face paint on, it felt like a movie. As soon as we all walked outside it's felt great being recognize by the city they had us all line up by number and our parents on the field. As soon it got to my number they had my name and picture on a jumbo screen and I ran to my mom then walked with her for 30 yards but that moment I felt like I made my mom proud,  all my hard work for ten years she put up with I gave back to her.

With all players being done it's was game time, the first drive we had we scored and from that point on it didn't stop. Each quarter it was an average of seventeen points just putting on show, all the talented players we had just felt like playing against a your little siblings  in the backyard  and just have no mercy. 70-14 was the final, the biggest defeat the in all the years that the showcase ever had. That made us the best team in El Paso history and that was just great feeling.

Entry #5: The takeover

After listening to, The American Life's episode: Status Update's podcast its ccome to my attention that we do intend to want the most likes and comments, choose the right picture to post, make the caption sound good, and etc. I my self have fallen in each of those categories I always end up picking the best picture that makes me look good. It really didn't surprise much how these teens do all that before posting just one picture and how much these comments sound so much alike with the girls I follow. Also the culture now has change us significantly, now people are getting  surgeries to look better than their natural selves just to get attention with the real world and digital world. One interesting comment she made caught my attention where she said if her friends don't comment on their picture they view as not a loyal friend, I find that really upsetting where now you have to have your friends comment on a picture you post just to verify that we're friends. Not like how it was before were you new your friends because you actually hung out with them. Sadly to say social media has changed the youth's culture than what it was before.

 

Entry #4: Stream Titles

Music probably the next right hand man to go when your feeling sad, hyped, tired, etc. Listening to music has always helped through the tough times and good times from genre to genre it has always lifted me to do my best in anything. It also has cultures, music isn't only for you to bop your head when the beat comes on, many countries have dance rituals for their gods or a family member has pass so they dance for his lost and I guess try and uplift there spirits. 

When the day isn't going to good this is one of my go to songs. Music can change a persons mood really quick it could be bad day but when your favorite songs comes on that alone cheers you up  thinking about the good times when hearing that one specific song just makes you forget what even upseted you in the first place. I remember when it'd be gameday and just listening to music it make the feeling ten times better having those nervous feeling gone and having an ambition to beat the other team. Music has improved, with new genres being made every year its great seeing new music and I'm sure there's some type of music you enjoy listening too. So find out what like listening to, sit down grab a pair headphones and just let the music disfuse all the tensions.

Entry #3: Birds In The Trap

I chose to talk about Travis Scott's digital identity, I currently follow him on twitter and instagram and for each platform they are somewhat the same. His purpose in having these accounts is to show how he's living life, his views when he performs in concerts, and promotes music. Usaully on instgram his contents consist of his new music and leaves a link under to listen to it, new music videos, sometimes he even posts other artist's music which is cool because not much famous artists promote uprising stars. When Travis repost anything it's usually him singing from a fans camera or just a picture of him either with a fan or at a concert. Travis Scott will never give a sneak peek of his upcoming work, which makes it reason to follow him because you'll know when he's drops anything, he'll post it letting his fans be the first to know. Travis's audience are his fans because all his post are about promoting himself with his music career and his clothing line it's what the people want see from him, sometimes when he's  on twitter he tweets his followers thanking them for being a fan of his work. Also the way he connects to society is through the issues that are happening now,  he makes a post about it. For example when the  presidential votes opened up he posted a picture of the White House encouraging his fans to vote captioning "Your votes count". Travis Scott has really been connected to his fans and has influenced others to never stop what you love doing and make money out of it, being that he came from nothing, his lifestyles on instagram has changed the young generation to pursues there dreams.
