My Plans For the Future

This right here above is my dream job. To be exact to designing shoes for a major shoe industry or make up my own so I can sell them myself would be my dream job. I really began looking into this job a few summers ago because I was always so interested in how the shoes were made but I also was intrigued to be the person to say that "I was the one who design the shoe you're wearing". I love tennis shoes. Nothing makes me happier than to buy to a brand new pair of kicks and to be the first and only to wear them. Thats why i believe this job is truly meant for me. But now as I start to think about it more, I really want to become my own label, so I can sell not just shoes, but clothes and shades too. The real hard partabout this is that I have to find a college that has the majors that I need to make my dream job come true. I narrowed it down to down to two colleges ( mainly one) which are the Institue of Art in Chicago and The University of Northern Iowa ( which I most likely will go to). I'm going to try to major in three different majors which are business and marketing, fine arts, and design. But lets just see where my future leads me!!!

The Next Knowles Up in Line

This Knowles is up in line for the next superstar. Her name is .......Solange not Beyonce'. Don't get her mixed up with her sister. She's a whole different person with a new/ old school style of music with her new album Sol- Angel and The Hadley St. Dreams. You probably have seen her in movies such as "Johnson's Family Vacation" and Bring it On: All Or Nothing. She's been around for a while now and she's showing that she can holdher on. She's been through alot these past years. She's been married and divorced and has a little boy named Daniel Juelz, who describes as her pride and joy. She came out with her first album in 2003 titled Solo Star. But i think this album will be one of her best since its been a while since she last released a album and i think she had time to develop and come into her own. So I wish her the best in all she does.

The Argument of Sampling Music



Oooooookkkk, theres been a big argument going on about the sampling of music. The main purpose of this subject is alot of company believe that they should get money for people sampling their music. Alot of music artist are guilty for doing this like, Flo Rida, Diddy, Twista, and many more, but I can't think of them right now. A major company that is causing the most problems would have to be limewire because teens/adults are downloading music for free. This is causing music artist to lose money and their record label to lose money also. Most teens I talk to say they rather download music for free because the money adds up when you have to have to pay to download even though they don't realize that its taking money out of the artist pockets. Some people feel that they are tribute to the artist when they make a remix or sample of an artist music, but the artist don't feel the same about that. But we'll have to stick around to see how this debate comes around.

The Heart of the Teenage Life........The Cell Phone

This little gadget to the left is a cellphone and its the heart of the teenage commmuntiy. It holds teenager loveones and friends numbers but it also holds the key to the world around us. For us teenagers, we probably could not live with out this device. But anyways this phone is one of the few new phones that are coming out this year. Its called the HTC Touch Pro2. Its a 3G window mobile 6.1 smatr phone with many different features which are TouchFLO 3D navigation, handwriting recognition, touch sensitive zoom bar, microSD slot, stereo Bluetooth, HSDPA data, 3.15 megapixel camera, Pocket Office, GPS and Wifi.So we definitely have to keep a look out for this phone. So we might be able to purchase this in the near future, so lets keep our hopes up.

These shoes are basically meant for skateboarding but you probably have seen them on famous rappers and hip hop singers.The shoes are kind of hard to find unless you live in big city like Los Angeles or New York.

The A.C.T.


Maaaaaannnnn you don't know how nervous I am to take the A.C.T. this coming up saturday. This is how I see the test. I see it as a major thing that can affect my furture in a positive way but if I slack off it could turn into something negative. The purpose of this test is it can get me scholarships into college or even mabe some financial help if I do well on the test. The perfect score on this test is 36. I've been talking to alot of people who have taken the test and they tell not to stress, but i can't help it. They also tell me to use the book that you can order to help you study for it. Most of the people got good scores like 25- 31, so it's giving me confidence and the courage to do my best on the test. My goal for the test is to aim high like lets say 30 and mabe get a little lower than what I aimed for.This hopefully will help me stay positive. so wish me good luck cause I'm going to need it.
