Advertisements!!!

As we all know, their are ads everywhere telling everyone to quit smoking. The 'White Lies' commercials make you realize all the dangers of smoking, persuading you to quit. In this ad, by stating 'Stop Smoking With Us' they make the consumer believe that many people are stopping this bad habit via the bandwagon effect.

For as long as I can remember I have seen images like this asking people to help end animal abuse. The companies use emotional advertising to get your attention, and sympathy for these animals. Just looking at those sad puppy eyes makes you want to donate money, or do something to help any animal that is in need. This ad certainly accomplishes what it was intended to do.

By having Jessica Simpsons' face on the ad for this, it means that the Proactiv company has her support. The company is using the transfer form of advertisement to get peoples attention. By having her face on the ad, it could grab some of her fans attention, or people who hadn't used proactiv before.

LOL *silently*

So, precalc going well went for a grand total of until I got to that class yesterday. Ugh, I try to copy notes, but if I don't understand what I'm writing, then there is no use, correct. I think so anyway. Oh well, I will continue on my useless attempts.....
I am to give my history presentation today. We had to make a gigantic time line, then research one of the things on the time line. My group researched the Trail Of Tears, which was where they United States was eager for new land so they pushed the Indians off their land. The Cherokee had to travel the farthest distance, and over 4,000 of there 15,000 people died....it is rather sad.
On a lighter note, this weekend is going to be amazingly fun. I am going to be with Ethan/Meagan/Rebecca the whole time and I am pumped! I miss hanging out with Meg! We havn't done so in what feels like FOREVERRRR!
Well, alrighty then, I hope everyone else has a really good weekend as well.
Tata for now!

School, Sleep, and Cheesecake

Things are quite a bit less hectic at this moment in time. I havn't had precalc today though...maybe that's why. Anyway, I had no homework last night which was the first time in a very long time that has happened. It was rather relaxing to be honest.


I watched a nice video on the teenage brain yesterday in my 7th period class. They did many different studies, all indicating that if teens get good sleep, we perform better in our school work, home life, and we have more of a HEALTHY social life. This has led me to a conclusion: Staying up really late and cramming isn't going to do me any good..ever. While I may do well in that one class, I am going to be doing poorly in all my other studies. I'm trying to be responsible here, and spread everything out evenly over time, and not cram, but its hard to break old habits.



To top everything off, I get to make cheesecake for a grade! How amazing is that?! It is probably the easiest thing in the world to do, and I do it often, and I LOVE cheesecake, so I'm pretty much in heaven. :)
