Well, on Tuesday we started chapter nine, writing analysis by division. We then went on to talking about its procedures, the organization, and then the sequence of parts. Also, Dr. Rivera showed us the "geocities" site of the Guam Poet's club, because we could also submit poems to the site for our special project in replacement for taking our final exam. Aren't we all glad we got alternatives to our final grade? I totally agree. Anyway, it was not until we came to exercise one, where I went blank. I do not know Elvis really well, so Dr. Rivera gave us an alternative to do the exercise on an another famous singer, actor/actress, or on a figurehead. I chose Pink as my singer of choice. Well, she was sort of the first thing to pop into my head of famous people. I look up to her in a way because she pushes for non-conformity, and originality. Her messages, although can be somewhat obsene, allows her to speak her mind, and it surely makes a difference. Her song "So what" even though it is really popular right now, is so inspirational because, she knows that she is a strong woman, and even though she is going through a divorce, she is still her own person, and not hidden in the shadow of her husband or anyone. So, I am truly thankful for picking Pink as my artist to analyize because she is very much a person advocating for everyone to be themselves.

Hey Christina,
That was funny how you chose Pink? Her songs are real catchy but she's not the best role model to look up to.
I didn't think you were into her kind of music.
See you in class.
Oh by the way, I'll try volunteering sometime, I know how it feels to be pressured into answering in front of the whole class.
