what do young people think is enjoyable to watch.

"Martyr Nyebera" by Kamikazee


"Ambisyoso" by Kamikazee


"Chiksilog" by Kamikazee


there is a reason why i chose this videos by Kamikazee. it not just because of the fact that they were sung by the same band/singers. i specifically chose them because of the songs and its videos. as you can see in the presented videos, they are enjoyable to watch because it has a funny story accompanying the songs. that is the reasons why i chose this videos.

"an analysis of selected videos of kamikazee uncovers how various visual techniques may be used to catch the viewing publics eye."

written above is my thesis statement.

the title of my analysis paper would be: "visual hooks in some music videos."

Family Problems

wow. it's been a while since i got to write on my blog spot acct. ha ha ha. anyway, it is time for me to try and write something here. it is about my assignment in English one. well, here goes nothing and everything at the same time.

a lot can happen to a family. they could have other family problems; therefore, causing their own problems. having this problems can cause a lot of things that you don't or wouldn't like. for example, having a misunderstanding between family members can lead to the divorce of the parents. on the other hand, if their relationship lasts longer than that of the others, they might just be the perfect match for each other.

having problems with your parent's parents can lead to an angry family; nevertheless, if you avoid in helping your grand parents as a family, it would still cause some problems. however you try and help, it cannot be helped to have an argument amongst your parents and their parents.

another problem that you might encounter is that of your dad or mom may be having an affair with another guy or woman. the only effect i can see is that for your mom and your dad to call off their marriage, unless, of course they find a way to stop cheating on their spouse or husband.

catch me if you can

this is a story about frank William abignale. he is a very famous criminal. he fraud checks all over the united states. he travelled the world for free and he cashed in over 4 million dollars of fraud checks. if you would watch the film, you will know that frank was not always the convict. he was once a good boy in school, one time even, he impersonated his teacher. imagine, he was only eighteen when he did this but he was very good in impersonating.he then started faking checks and starting cashing in the check frauds.

the main story was that he became what he was because of his parents. he started noticing his mother seeing the boss of his father, behind his fathers back. he ran away from his parents who were getting divorced. after that, he got a so called job, by job, meaning impersonate someone. he always write to his father. he tells him the things he is doing and the things he wants to do.

after some months being a nineteen year old person, he was caught by a detective. the detective is named Carl hanratty. he was a detective of the united states of America. they caught frank abignale in France. he was caught by hanratty and the french police.

after he was caught he was hired by the agency which caught him and worked for them until he died. this is the story which i liked from the moment i have seen the movie.



i should guess that the theme analysis for this movie is that it is all about frank William abignale. by the way, this movie is based on a true story.i couldn't find the moral of the story so, i guess what i would want to say is that crime doesn't pay. it really doesn't. because, i know that frank abignale was good at impersonating people. but in the end he was caught, which means, whatever lie you say, whatever lie you do however small or big that is, you will eventually get caught.

studying is a hassle when you have terror teachers. this is one type of teacher, they are the teachers who, when your caught being a happy go lucky person, will reprimand you right then and there. they can give you tons of assignments and you cant do anything but do it or else they will fail you. then, there are those jolly teachers who you can joke around with. they are the teachers who will make you think that assignments are of no importance but if you don't pass, they will definitely fail you in there subject. then are the 'okay' teachers. these teachers are the ones who don't care if you don't do your assignments as long as you wont fail their exams. still some teachers who i call 'moody' teachers tend to act like they are one with your group and try to be, like a member of your peers. these teachers can be very fun to be with at times, but there are times also when they can be very serious and easily to get annoyed. even thought teachers are different in their own way, they still do a good job in giving their lessons to students and never fail to give out assignments to their students.

listening

am i a good listener?
this is the question that pops into my mind every time i hear the word listen. i understand listening by understanding what you hear from the speaker. i am more likely correct because of the reason that we discussed it in English one class last Tuesday.

ms. Siriban explained that when you listen you should do at least 5 things. these things are: receiving, understanding, remembering, evaluating, and responding. with this being the basis of being a good listener, i think i can say that i am a good listener. i can say this now, because, i always listen to problems, be it my friends or politic problems. i try and find solutions inside my head. and now that i know that some girls doesn't always want answers for their problems, i would just keep it to myself. i learned that from my professor in English one.

thanks ma'am.. :)

anyway, i know now that i am a good listener to problems. but i think that i can still improve my being a good listener by trying to look at the topic in the speakers point of view. i think that by doing that, i can also be more of a good speaker. i can still improve my listening skills and that i am but another person who wants to improve his listening and speaking skills. so, i would do anything to improve them.

a place

loud noises can be heard just outside of the room. you can hear the voices shouting in astonishment and joy. you can hear there voices shouting like kids, shouting as if there was someone asking another someone in public to marry him. in short, the shouting was full of 'yihee's'. i know that some of them were just shouting like that because of the performance they just witnessed. in utter amazement they were all shouting.

i went to the room to see what was happening. upon reaching the door closest to me , i could see benches, and on top of the benches, i could see bags, bulky bags. some of the benches have wet t-shirts on top and still other benches have rubber shoes. i could see people sitting on the benches that are unoccupied by bags, t-shirts, and shoes. i could make out some of the voices. i knew that one of the voices belonged to Carlito Gonzales.

upon entering the room i was called by some of my friends which were sitting just beside the window. come to think of it, there were a lot of windows inside this room, this rooms ceiling is 2 times higher than the normal classroom. i examined it more closely and then noticed that there was no air con or even electric fans. this is weird because, normally, rooms have air cons, and, even if they didn't have air cons, at least an electric fan. by the way, this room was so big, at least three classrooms put together.

i could hear all my friends shouting because of the ongoing rally being showed. in this room you will see a lot of lines, although they are separated, you can still make out the figure they are making. it forms a rectangular shape, with a lot of the lines were over lapping each other.

people were shouting much louder because the opponent missed the shot and his opponent got the score. although they were shouting, i could hear the person who got the point shout 'yes!'. both of the players were holding a racket clasped on there right hand. apparently, the game was over and they both went to the middle of the court and, above the five foot net, they shook each others hands as a sign of respect, and to say that there were no sore losers during the game.

i guess, you know now what room i am talking about, don't you?
