Week 5 Response

This political community is what we call the Republican Party. It's leader, because every community has one, would be Donald Trump. This political community in the article includes everyone Trump has appointed to be apart of his administration. This isn't the whole Republican Party. I only consider certain members of Trump's administration to be corrupt. The doctrine of this community is "America First". This doctrine could potentially make it an unhealthy community because this is a slightly selfish view. One of the articles ("Why 'America First" is a dangerous doctrine) we read talks about JFK's inaugural address that "pledged to support any friend and oppose any for to assure the success of liberty". This is basically the same thing Trump tries to say but he doesn't clarify exactly what he means. Trump doesn't even make an illusion to liberty, one of the principles America was built on. With this in mind, the doctrine could lead to a potentially selfish and very corrupt American Government. This political community could be considered an unhealthy community because like i mentioned earlier it could lead to corruption. Having someone who is a business man lead something like that could be hazardous because they could not be all that focused on what they should be. Potentially this could harm society in many ways; it could make people of the government turn against each other because they don't have the same morals and ethics. The healthy communities should just try to stop and help the other community as much as possible.

My Type of Music

I like to listen to all types of music. I have gone through all the phases; punk rock, country, alternative, scream-o, pop, rap, hip hop, indie pop and Disney musicals. All of it, you name it, I've probably listened to it at some point in my life. If you look at my Spotify playlist right now, you would see a variety of songs.

I really appreciate throwbacks. Like 2000's throwbacks.  As a team, DCWS really appreciates Grillz by Nelly. If you really wanna see how committed we are to the song, go check out our bio's on Twitter.

Not only do throwbacks make an appearance in my playlists but songs from Disney movies do also. I like anything from actual musicals like Wicked to just like songs from Frozen. My favorite Disney song is Under the Sea from The Little Mermaid. I typically only listen to this type of music when I just want to chill or while I'm sleeping.

My favorite band is probably Twenty One Pilots; my favorite song by them is "HeavyDirtySoul". They are from Columbus which makes it even better. I was a fan even before they became super famous. A close second would be A Day To Remember, my favorite song by them is "If it means a lot to you".

My favorite rapper is Kevin Gates. He has a really nice raspy voice. I like to listen to him while I do homework.

My favorite country singer is probably Sam Hunt, Thomas Rhett or Luke Bryant. I like listening to them a lot in the summer. Mostly because country music has such a summery vibe.

My Family

In my immediate family, I have my mom and dad and two younger brothers. I love all of them very much. They get on my nerves a lot, but I still love them all. My parents divorced when I was going into sixth grade; this makes my family not like a typical family. It used to really bother me, but as I have gotten older it has become a normality in my life.

My moms name is Rolinda Lois Bowman. She has a very not typical name. My grandparents did not know what to name her so they combined both of their names. My grandfathers name is Ronald Travis Simmons and he goes by Travis. My grandmothers name was Linda Lois Simmons. They took the Ro from Ronald and put it with Linda to get Rolinda. There are only about ten people in this world that have my moms name or a variation of that name, which is pretty cool. My mom is also 47 and will be 48 in April. My mom has live in my hometown her entire life.

My dad's name is James Lyn Bowman. He is also 47 and will be 48 in May. He has lived all over the United States until he was about 20 when he settled down with my mom. My dad has always been there for me when it comes to things like sports and figuring out what I want to do with going to college to play soccer. I will always cherish everything he has done for me in regards to athletics. He has pushed me to be the best and always want the best for myself.

The oldest of my two younger brothers is 15. His name is Seth. I did not like it when he was born. My mom woulds me stories of how I through hissy fits whenever they would talk about the new baby coming. He will be 16 and March and that scares me because that means he will start driving. I can't believe how old he is getting.

The youngest one is 13. His name is Sage. My whole family calls him Peanut. We call him that because he was the smallest out of all three of us kids when he was born.

Week 3 Response

I believe the intended audience for the first one (John Lewis Christmas Advert 2016 #bustertheboxer) is families. I think this because in the commercial there is a family and the parents bought the trampoline for the daughter. When they go to bed; I believe the animals that start jumping on it represent a family also. Maybe not a traditional family, but still a family. That's what the company means when they say "gifts that everyone will love".

I believe for the second one (What A Creative Advertisement By Mercedes!) is intended for families also. I think this is because typically Mercedes Benz cars are not family cars, but since the police officer drives it, this makes it a safe family car. It makes sense; plus there is a cute little boy with a teddy bear who leaves his house after his parents go to bed to just say "he is lost" and get a free ride in a nice car. I actually give props to the little kid, I would have never been able to think of something like that when I was a kid.

The third add (Budweiser- Eternal Optimism 2012 Super Bowl Add), I believe is intended for the younger generation. The generation that is more likely to want to drink and celebrate mild things. I think it is meant for the younger generation because in the add there is flashing lights and loud music; basically the party scene that you would not see an older person at.
