"Front Pages of the World"
1. The title of the Front page of the newspaper is called "The Fresno Bee". The name of the paper is unique and appeals to me
2.
2.
3. The City is Fresno, The state is California.
4. My favorite headline is the "Where's the rain?" The reason for that is that it sounds funny to me and the Story is kind of interesting.
5. I think there are only 5 stories on the page.
6. I notice that there is a main Story bigger than the rest of them and they have pictures on the front that catch the readers attention but don't take up the whole page.
7. It has a few ads that most other news papers don't really put on the front.

Best magazine covers 2013
New York, August 6-13, 2012: "Sex"
The cover of this Lifestyle magazine is beautiful. It has two people up close and personal join in for a kiss. The lighting of this photograph is just outstanding and the way the two are positioned are the way two lovers would be. Every sexual interaction behind closed doors begin with a kiss. What they could've done different in my mind is maybe find words that have a meaning to it. But just the word SEX catches eyes attention.
Magazine Essential Parts
Parts of the Magazine cover.
1. The Selling Lines
2. Cover Lines
3. A bar code
4. Left third
5. Main cover Line
6. A cover Line
7. The models credit
8. Main image
9. Date Line
10. Masthead
1. The selling lines to me seem like they are the people who are sending the message to. Like the type of company.
2. The cover lines are what could be in the magazine . Like the main topics that attract people to read and or buy the magazine.
3. The code of the selling item. And in this case it is the magazine.
4. The left third is the space that is needed to be left alone and there I guess.
5 Kind of the punch line. The thing that is catchy and that will draw people to become interested in the magazine.
6. The cover line is something on the side to maybe grasp the readers attention to peek inside and find out what is going on in the magazine.
7. The name of the model that the picture is of.
8. The main image to me is kind of like pea-coking. Since people don't really pay attention to the words mainly only images it might serve the purpose of catching a person passing by and draw them towards it.
9. The real ease day of the magazine.
10. The masthead is the logo or the publisher of the company

Year in Review : 2013
The image here has a very unique perspective of the tallest building in the world. Personally I would be scared to do this kind of shot but as you can see it was worth it. I love how the photo gives a person the sense of feeling like they are being sucked into the photo mainly because of the view.
From first glance it jet looks like a simple shot of a wall but looking at it closer you can see the outline of a man painted with the background blending into it. The shadows at the legs give it away that you are looking at a person and he rule of thirds looks like it is incorporated into the photo. The photo looks fresh and clean and smooth which makes it appealing to the human eye.
The emotion that the picture gives is kind of an "Oh my"due to the lack of land that the people that reside there have to live on. The condition of the area looks unclean and without any thriving life that is actually happy. The different shadows of the water help know that the depth of each side of the small island is different.
1.Best song of 2013
Paramore : Still into You
The reason why I chose this song is because Paramores' sound is changing and the upbeat playful song "Still into you" explains how she feels about her lover. The attraction that I had for this song was mainly because I know who they are and not really a big fan of anything other than rock bands. It's just a great song to listen to that gets stuck in your head from time to time.
2. Best movie of 2013
Hunger Games Catching Fire
Catching fire is one of my all time favorite movies of 2013 because of the action and thrilling scenes that went on. It was one of the movies that people went to go see that made so much money. Wat attracted me to this choice was not just because of the actor who plays Peeta "Josh Hutcherson" which i think is an amazing actor but the way that the film gets you sucked into the all the drama and all the great fight scenes and the beautiful sets that it was filmed at.
3. Most important news story of 2013
Edward NSA Leaks
Edward NSA Leaks
I chose Edward Snowdens NSA leak because of the actions that the NSA is taking without the peoples knowledge or consent about it and some will argue that it violates the law of unlawful search and seizure. Just the fact that the NSA was doing this behind our backs was bad enough and that they have been looking into every single citizen in the U.S is just jaw dropping that they would do this. But I'm pretty sure it was all in the best intentions.
4. The most important person of 2013
Enrique Pena Nieto
I chose the President of Mexico because of all of the criticism he is getting because of his looks and the age he is and how they say he doesn't seem look like he is capable of leading a country. What attracted me to this topic is for the reason already explained and that the relations is Mexico is something that you really don't look into. I think that this is the 2013 important person because he has a lot to do to prove himself as a leader and it's something that every leader of a country should do.
1. One thing that was great that happened to me in the 2013 winter break was that I was able to unwind and forget all the stress that comes with being a senior in high school and trying to graduate on time and stuff. Pretty much I was able to get most of the weight off my shoulders.
2. My 2014 resolutions are to not stress to much when things don't go as planned and just try to improvise and hope for the best. The other resolution is to stop trying to find someone to be in a long term relationship with, im young and I have a whole life ahead of me and a crap tone of time to find the right one that will be in my life.
3. 2014 I am hoping to graduate high school and find a job that I can be happy in and get into music again and maybe write my own music this time. If I'm good be in a band and hopefully make it.
