Yes, it's me again with my assignments. I haven't been here a couple days and first I wanna say WHAT THE HELL ARE THOSE WEIRD CHARACTERS FLOWING AROUND THE FORUM????? But I assume that's been raised a thousand times so I won't get into that.
Second, a big thank to Onix, joe and raymand, couldn't have done the last project without you guys. I will be posting my mark here (if it's decent enough
), but unfortunately I handed it in kinda late, so a huge percentage is being deduced.
Well, I know I worked hard in it and I learned a lot, I think that's all it matters.
Also, about a month ago I said that I bought the new Sharp MD player and an extensive review will be here soon.....Well unfortunately it's not completed so I'll just listen to it a little more.
Now back to what's due tomorrow, I'll be staying all night tonight. I have to write a speech, free topic, it has to be persuasive and it has to follow the traditional method (whatever that it). I've chose my topic as "Conformaty" since, that kinda would get on the nerves of everyone. And here's my first draft, comments, suggestions, changes, mistakes, tell me about it! I don't really have a beginning and concluding sentence yet.
What's funnier than most of the teenage demography likes to pretend that they are unique, original beherian and have refined taste in everything? It drives me crazy when people go on and on about how important it is to be original in the way you dress and think and not care about what people think about you at the same time. Just because they're not conforming to the mainstream culture doesn't mena, by any stretch, that they're being their own person. They'll say that it's stupid to care abou twhat other's think, then they'll spend 5 hours getting ready to go out at night and they'll ask a million times "How do I look, really?" or "you like my shirt?" Give me a friggin break! See, conforming into non-conformity is STILL conforming. Changing the way you are to be special doesn't make you special. Conformity exist in a society that thinks too lowly of itself, if we think highly of ourselves there would be no more need to fit into a particular moulded image. If we Canadians really think highly to ourselves we won't need a commercials every 30 seconds to say "I AM CANADIAN!!!" Big deal. We don't need another commericial saying "Canadian ROCKS" That's why we have to conform into the American culture. Face it, do we really like the Canucks? Or just because we're from Vancouver. Do we really like hockey, or is it just because we're Canadians and society pigeon-holes (can't think of another word) us in believing that we do?
