Blog Post of the Day:

Read this small newspaper clipping and then write a blog post about it. What are your thoughts? How does it make you feel? Do you agree? Disagree? Explain yourself.

This newspaper clipping was very eye opening. It makes me feel like teenagers need to get more focused and start acting like a part of the world and not like they are better than it. I agree with it, we act like we are so different and need so much when we have stuff we should be doing right in front of us.

What is a Public Service Announcement? If you don't know what it is, Google it. In your own words, now tell me what it is? What are they used for? Can you recall an example of a PSA you've seen before?

A public service announcement is a message that is giving the public information on a topic to raise awareness for free.  They are used to make people aware of the dangers or sometimes benefits of a product or something that is happening around the world. An example of a PSA is a drinking and driving commercial, these show the downsides and problems to drinking and driving.

Blog Post of the Day:
After watching the short clip of Ashton Kutcher's acceptance speech what did you take away from his advice? What does this quote mean to you -"Everything around you that you call life was made up by people that were no smarter than you, and you can change it, you can influence it, you can build your own things that other people can use."

 After I watched his speech I took a few things away from it, the main thing is that you can do anything you set your mind to. I took this away from it because he talks about how you can change anything and that all you have to do is work hard. That quote means that as long as you work your hardest like he did going from job to job, it doesn't matter how you look all that matters is how hard you tried and how smart you are and can be.
