assignment 2-1


The band All-American Rejects is a rock band from Stillwater, Oklahoma that was formed in 2001. They have had three hit albums since 2002 that have sold over millions of copies along with a couple hit singles.They are a very popular group with the music industry. Their band consists of Tyson Ritter, Nick Wheeler, Mike Kennerty and Chris Gaylor.

Some of their hit songs are: "Swing, Swing", "It ends tonight", "Dirty little secret", "Move along" and their latest hit " Gives you hell".

Most people don't care for their music because its rock, but I like their style. I have to really listen to the lyrics of their songs to understand what they are saying but they are a great band. I personally like the songs "Dirty little secret" and "Gives you hell".

Assignment 2-2










Disney princesses are little girls' dreams. Little girls dream of becoming one or not all of these princesses growing up. Spiderman is little boys' hero growing up because he can fly on his spider web and save the day. NCIS is a television show that is aired on CBS that is about Navy Examiners.

Each one of these pictures have meaning to me and that's why I have chosen them. My daughter and I love the Disney princesses and watch all the movies. Spiderman is my son's favorite superhero and we have all three movies. NCIS is my favorite show and I hope that one day I can be a fraud examiner.

My daughter has believed that she is Cinderella and that one day her prince charming is going to come and take her to his castle. Of course, I told her that might never happen but that she is my Cinderella no matter what happens. My son got hooked on Spiderman when my daughter picked out a toothbrush for him that had the character on it. It has been Spiderman this and that for the last two years. When I think the faze is dying down for him and then all of a sudden its back on again. NCIS is a show that my dad and I watched ever since it aired and I have been hooked ever since. I like the fact that people can solve case by evidence and I just want to be able to do that someday.

Assignment 1-2


Popular culture to me is what you wear, eat, drink, think, and watch. Even if you try to avoid it there is still a chance that something you like was once a trend in popular culture. It doesn't matter if it was your favorite restaurant or the brand of clothing you wear. It also could be the movie or television show that you like and even can come down to your favorite book. Popular culture is everywhere in the world.
I fell in love with the twilight series books and now all my friends and family love reading them. I do have to admit that it came from a preview of the movie that caught my eye from another movie that I own and was watching. I had to do some research on the film and found out that it was being made from a book. When I looked up on the Internet about the book I found that it was a series, so I had to go to the store and by them. I read them and was instantly hooked.
