comments on betsys topic(rafael lopeZ)

i liked you ideas and i think you should put why you want to study that profession.what motivates you or inspire you to do that.
is it to help people or because you really enjoy doing it
i think you should also put wich careers are the back up plan if ,just in case, you dont achieve to become what you wanna be when you grow upm for whatever reason
and you should also put wich ones you wouldnt like to study and why

COmments to anacaros topic(rafael lopez)

or you could write about a friend of yours,

you could also write about someone famous or i dont know.

a famous person who you think is a good person and why

assignment #4 - andrea tamayo - an important TV show


Assignment #4 (Bethsy)

The career I want to study.

Freewriting:
I have an idea of what Iwant to study, actually I've now it ever since I was a little kid. At first I wanted to be a veternarian, then I changed to a cardiologist then neurologist.
But all of it falls in the same group.
Medicine.
I want to be a dcotor when I grow up, and I want to do my masters in "pediatric oncology" and in that I want to be a specialist in brain tumors in children.
I also would like to study forensic pathology
It will make me win a good deal of money if I get both degrees.

Buttons (Blog Assignment #3) Carolina =)


Once upon a time there was this old woman who lived in a very poor village and didn't have any way to earn money, and it was hard for her to do so because her capacity to do such works required strength and capacities, which in her case were going weaker, but she had some strength left. One day she remembered her mom left her her sewing machine before she died. Along with her sewing machine, she found pieces of material, thread, and a glass with buttons in it; they weren't so many, but she could afford to do decorate and compliment clothing with them.

Her neighbor, who was poor too, noticed she sewed so she asked her if she could make her a nice shirt. She brought her all the material she could need. The old lady spent her day sewing and decorating the shirt, but when she finished she noticed several buttons were left. When her neighbor came to pick it up the next day, she said she had liked it a lot and told her to keep the buttons. Days passed and people started to notice the old woman sewed so they started to come to visit her and tell her to make them some clothing or fix some. All of them would tell her to keep the buttons always until the old woman's button glass was full 'til no more.

Dog(Assignment #3) Bethsy




The Thinking Dog
What's the dog story?
Once there was a very happy and beautiful dog.
During his life time he enjoyed playing out in the fields with his master. But then, something tragic happened. His master died suddenly in a car crash. And the dog's life changed forever.
The dog was part of an inheritance his master left to his son. But he was treated badly. First, he was chained to a pole outside and he was left there for days and he didnt ate. Second, the son's kids were mean to him and his life was horrible.
The time passed and the dog grew sadder and quiet. One day, the dog did something really similar to waht his master did. The son was amazed, and moment later, he put the dog inside the house.But it was too late, as the dog passed away two days later from the years of neglection, in a way, just like his master.

road :) - (blog assignment #3) - andrea tamayo

What happened here?
What's the story?

Well, the story is that he has been dumped there by his girlfriend. They started fighting because it was valentine's day and she wanted to take him to the beach, as gift, but she didn't tell him where they were going and why, so she started asking indirect questions to see if he remembered valentine's day, BUT HE FORGOT IT!. He forgot it was valentine's, he forgot the gift, and he forgot that valentine's day, is also their aniversary, so she got really angry and dumped him there, in the middle of nowhere.
He walked all the way to her house (he, luckily packed a map with him) and fulled her room with roses and gifts and all kind of sweet things so she could forgive him. When she got home she saw everything and she felt very guilty, so she decided to forgive him, so they could go to the beach and have a romantic valentine's day. Im sure he will not forget valentine's day again, ever. <3

Subject. audience.purpose. (blog assignment #2) Andrea Tamayo


What subject is the ad adressing?
That when you smoke you are destroying your body.

Who is the target audience?
the people that smoke.



What is the ad intended purpose?
The ad is trying to make you understand that everytime you smoke your body is suffering it, and in some point, you will die.

Is this ad successful in achieving its purpose?
I think so, because the picture shows a guy that is losing his leg, but if you smoke you may lose your fingers or you'll get lung cancer or any other terminal disease.

Subject. Audience. Purpose (Blog Assignment #2) Bethsy


What subject is the ad adressing?
dont drink and drive, because some people that are involved in this kind of accidents survive, with a very low quality of life.

Who is the target audience?
drinkers and drivers

What is the ad intended purpose?
tell people never to drink and drive. and they show a a picture of jacqueline sabudrio. she was involved in a car accident, the other driver was drunk and he passed, but she survived and her quality life is bad. she's severly burned

Is this ad successful in achieving its purpose?
I dont know if its sucessful, becuase a lot of people still drive while being drunk. But it may change some people way of thinking. It will make them think of the consequences of their actions, and how will it feel to ruin a person's life like this.

Subject.Audience.Purpose. (Blog Assignment #2) Valeria Quiroga

1. What subject is the ad adressing?
the negative effects of smoking

2. Who is the target audience?
Smokers and people who surrounds them

3. What is the intended purpose?
This ad is telling smokers they shouldnt smoke in front of people who dont smoke because they just dont damaging themselves but also the people who surround them

4. Is this ad successful in achieving its purpose?
Yes, because the ad shows a kid that has an allergy but thats not just an allergy is a damage from second-hand smoke, people who lives surroundes by smokers dont have the fault, so they dont have to be suffering of chronic allergies or asthma just because they live surrounded by smokers. And I think this ad should make smokers think about the negative effects of smoking...


SMOKING: keep it OUT of your home and OUT of your life :*

Assignment #1 Feedback..

Good job guys, even though the assignment was to make up a story, I did like what you did and what your interpretation of the pictures was. Rafael, moving is always very difficult, sometimes it happens without us wanting it to happen. We just have to be patient and have faith and optimism that in the long run, things are going to be just fine. And hey, with the internet and technology nowadays, we're all a little closer, don't you think?

As far as paragraphs... a lot of you are having problems with the concept, but thankfully that's part of the work we're going to be doing in class soon. 

Good job!
