Choice Sheets

If I were to take a publication class next year I would take yearbook. I would take yearbook because I like taking pictures a lot more than I like writing. Also, because I like having a specific job to do and having to do it in a predetermined amount of time. I would like yearbook because I like taking pictures and having certain responsibilities but at the same time not having all the weight on my shoulders.

Welcome Back

I Liked this photo because it was a historic moment of 2012

I liked this photo because right when I saw it it blew my mind how he has a knife through his neck!

I liked this photo because I've never even heard of someones eye being stitched.


 
Chief Keef - Hate Bein' Sober
I chose this song because I listen to it all the time, it jams, and I never get tired of it! What attracted me to this song is the instrumental, the song  just basically goes hard. It's the best of 2012 because Chief Keef is slowly becoming a well known artist and I have yet to get tired of hearing this song.

Marvel The Avengers
I chose this movie because I loved seeing it and I thought it was a great movie. What attracted me to this movie was how it had all the characteristics of a great movie. It's the best movie of 2012 because it's a great movie for all ages and if you're looking for a funny/romantic/action-packed movie then this is a great choice.


Sandy Hook Shooting
I chose this news because everybody and their moms knows about this shooting. This attracted me because you can ask anyone about it and they can tell you about it. It;s the news of 2012 because it's the second worst school shooting ever and like I said everybody and their moms know about it.
