Mirrors Ad Review

    

This advertisement for Hillary Clinton uses ethos to persuade it's audience by using a direct voiceover of Donald Trump making it credible. It wasn't a he said she said advertisement where competitors try to quote each other sometimes leaving out some information. The clip used a lot of ethos by playing the innocent piano instrumental and displaying the young girls, also because of the text at the end of the video "Is this the president we want for out daughters" making it very personal. Lastly it used logic because it would logical not to pic a president that is speaks badly about woman and has had  a history of not respecting them. Overall a very persuasive ad.

Yosemite

One of the pictures I took from my IPhone

This summer I had the opportunity to visit the iconic Yosemite National Park in California. And other than the two hour car ride from a relatives house and my ears constantly popping it was the experience of a lifetime. The scenery was unbelievable. The mountains where HUGE, now living thirty minutes from Chicago i've seen the largest architecture in the city which is the "Willis Tower" Aka "Sears Tower" that is 1,729ft. To put it perspective most of the mountains averaged at about 10k ft which would be about 5 Willis Towers stacked on top of each other. Thinking about it like that made Yosemite seem so unreal for me, like if I was watching a movie.

First blog!

On the second day of class with Dr. Kyburz we watched a video called "This is Water" by David Foster Wallace. I've seen the video before through Facebook and remember really liking it however over time I just forgot about it. After re-watching it one line from the whole video stuck out me. Mr.Wallace said " YOU get to consciously decide what has meaning what doesn't ". When he said that it hit me. Since I have the chance to pick what matters I shouldn't  just think about my self and try to consider other people during everyday life. Now, it's always said easier than done but it's a good reminder and I will definitely try to consider others especially when I'm not having a good day.
