Blog Post 5

Reading through all my past blog post I realized that I strongly value the connections between the people I meet. I never thought that, honestly I always called myself anti-social (although I'm like 99% sure I'm not haha). My emblem is of people all holding hands in a circle (which probably means the earth that emphasizes unity between all people). I value friendship, and family. I'm grateful for the people who has helped me in my life. Looking back I realize in my writings that I want to give back to people and make others happy. It is because of the people I am around and the people who take the time and effort to help me, they are the reason why I want to better myself. I'll end this blog post with a quote from Audrey Hepburn (I believe she was in one of my blog posts). "As you grow older, you will discover that you have two hands, one for helping yourself, the other for helping others." -Audrey Hepburn

Challenge Checkin-3

This challenge has made me realize that hip-hop is more than just music. It's so relatable, I see hip-hop more as a cultural factor rather than entertainment.  The most difficult part of the writing process was trying to analyze how the image on the graffiti wall related to time, but surprisingly I was able to integrate pathos and kairos effectively in my essay. I enjoyed trying to  integrate the song Love The Way You Lie by Eminem in to my essay. I think that's a great song and it depicts a lot of emotions, just like how the graffiti wall can be used to depict emotion.
