Media Image Analysis

This ad is stating how the social norm for a female dancer is to wear pink, and the silly ruffle pieces, but the ad influences the choice to break it. It is a new service provided by Nike that allows a dancer to get on and customize their dancing apparel instead of having to wear the typical pink too-too. In the ad, it starts with a question, that is answer in the ad itself, but it gets the consumer to think of how the answer would be for them. It also has the word "modern", which is showing that Nike is attempting to break the stereotype of pink by referring to breaking the standard as modern. While at the same time using words like "me" and "my" in order to present a sense of individuality. In the ad it also shows a model wearing an out of norm style, while in the warm up process for dance. 

Back in the day

Ew, I do not want that! ITS PINK! I always thought that pink was the primary girl color, and any boy seen with anything pink was a traitor. I grew up with a brother who was only two years older than me, and he taught me what was cool, what was not, and if I ever had second guesses I went to him. We played with most of the same toys growing up, and we were always staying away from any pretty pink barbie dolls. Boys did not play with those, we played with action figures and Tonka trucks!

Hello! I wanted to take the time to tell you about a fellow classmate I recently interviewed.

His name is Andy Conzola, born in Allentown, and now a current senior at Freedom high school. Even though he is still in high school he has his mind set on majoring in computer science either at Penn State or San Diego State, which seems to be his favorite place across the United States. He has two older sibling, one brother and one sister. Andy is a big New York team support from the Yankees to the Giants. From going to Outer Banks North Carolina or crossing the country to California, he loves to travel and go to the beach. While he is out in California, he would love to just stay out there, and live in a place like San Diego. He has played lacrosse for eight years now, and has gone on with no serious injuries throughout his time playing. He grew up around sports all his life from his parents to his siblings, everyone was athletic.

After some basic questions, we switched it up to some deeper thought questions, such as, "If you could pick any event in all of history, where would you go?" Andy responded back with Super Bowl XLVI, so he could watch the Giants overcome the Patriots in a twenty-one to seventeen victory. Also, what he would do if he hit the jackpot and won the lottery. Well, what else would a guy do other than buy some sweet cars and a nice house!

This concludes my interview of Andy Conzola, there is still plenty to learn about him, as well as all of our other fellow classmates! 

Welcome!

Hello, and welcome to my blog!

My name is Taylor Bittenbender, but most people call me T.J., and I am an 18 year old college student attending my first year at NCC (Northampton Community College). As of now, I am listed as Gen Stds., but I am taking courses towards a degree in business administration. I stayed in the Nazareth School District all my life, and graduated from Nazareth Area High School in the class of 2016. Sadly due to a few concussions my middle school to freshmen years, I had to give up contact sports for most of my high school career, and a knee injury my senior year stopped contact sports for the rest of high school. I am now trying to play lacrosse with NCC, but we are hitting some bumps in the program . After a year or two at NCC I plan on transferring out into a larger in-state college, but I am not sure where yet. (That right there is my pup)
