1981

It's coming to the end of my first semester of college, and 1981 has been an eventful year already, without my own personal experiences coming into play.
We've learned a lot this semester about various things. Our teacher changed his lesson plans every now and then because of some of the events going on. Such as, Columbia and this new phrase Internet. Lucky for me, today was just a normal day I guess..
     Today I woke up around 7am and started my day just like any other. I popped on my most recent favorite channel and let music videos blast as I got myself put together for class. I was feelin' good today so I wore my lucky outfit, which included my acid wash jeans and new chucks. Picked up my backpack and headed out for the day. When I started up my Rabbit I quickly realized I needed some gas, so I prayed to the Fuel Gods as I slowly made my way to the gas station and filled up my tank, but emptied my wallet of 16 dollars.
     Now that I've finally made it to school it's time to get stuff done. My teacher is not a big fan of Reagan so today he's going to explain the voting process and things to look for in our next president. But, of course nothing in the college life is made easy so I end up finishing my day with six pages of notes and a cramped up hand.
     School is done so now it's time to swing through the mickey ds drive through and spend the afternoon with a Mac.

REDO: Stay Thirsty My Friends

So after doing my whole blog, I remembered that it was supposed to be about food.. so here is attempt number two.

We all agree that any kind of booze is bad for you, but beer and liquor commericals are almost always the most creative. There is an ad that portrays a man as the most interresting man in the world. It shows him doing all these amazing things in extraordinary places and finishes it off by showing him drinking a nice cold one with two beautiful ladies on his arms. The most interesting man commericals put it in your mind that he doesn't accept anything but the best, so the best beer MUST be Dos Equis since its the beer he drinks, when he occasionally decides to drink beer.

The man your man could smell like

I think one of my favorite ads is one that Old Spice made for their body wash. It shows a good looking guy with an even better looking body in a bathroom and tells you how you can turn your own man into a man like him. His tactics are humerous while in actuality the one way you can make your man like him is to get him to use that same body wash. Yet, it still makes you believe that the tickets to the thing I love can turn into diamonds. They use their already know name brand and mix it with sex appeal and humor and create a fantastic ad that people want to mimic.
