Nike: Just do It

Image
    I found Nike's advertisement interesting because it started off being sold almost only to marathon runners and then people then became more involved in fitness so it had competition to Reebok in which they first took advantage of marathon runners using it. I liked the method of advertising which tells to try their best using their product and they'll be successful. Just to do it stands for buying their product and doing their best using their shoes.     I like this advertisement because it encourages me to try my best in times of difficulty. In fourth grade I had Nike shoes and I knew about the advertisement 'Just do it'.

Harry Potter and the Philosopher's stone, 11/28/18

My Relationship with Media

      Media has played a big part in my life. Since I was little I have used media for entertainment, education, and information purposes. My mom would take me to the library and we would read together storybooks which encouraged me to develop my liking to fiction and fantasy books. I have always been reading since then as a form of entertainment because as a kid I did not have video games until later when 11 when I first got my nintendo DSI. The only experience to games for me was old computer games and online games. I got my first laptop in third grade and in fourth and fifth grade I was introduced to math games and other websites such as coolmath games to play games on. I read at home and at school with my friends. I also spent a lot of my free time at home watching movies and cartoons. I liked watching Qubo which taught me many things some of which consisted of science, morals, life-lessons and values. I would stay up late watching Qubo, enjoying myself to my heart...
