A letter to myself

A time I would love to go back to was about six years ago when i was in the championship hockey game in middle school. We were one of the best teams and I was certainly one of the best players on that team and i was very cocky about it. We had beat many terrific teams and I was the leading scorer and celebrated every goal I scored. I yelled at teammates to pass to me and I tried to do it all myself. Being self-fish got me into the finals, but I think it lost me the championship. The team we were playing was a terrific school and it would take more than one player to beat them. The score was 2-1 the opposing team with only three minutes to play. The lone goal by my team was scored by me. The clock kept ticking and soon enough there was only a minute left to play. The puck bounced my way and I was on a fast break with another one of my teammates going the other way. It was a 2 on 1 and I chose to keep the puck instead of passing it and missed the shot. Shortly after, the buzzer rang and we had lost the championship game.

There are two things that I want to take back from this moment. I would surely love to take away me being cocky. Another thing is I would want to certainly go back and pass the puck. My confidence got so high that I thought I could do it myself, and if I would have passed i think we could have tied it and won the game in overtime. I certainly would love to go back and fix my mistakes and maybe I would have won the championship that day. I learned my lesson from then on.

Advertisement Reflection

Going into this assignment i felt like this was going to be a fun paper to write because we get to redesign a whole new advertisement. I chose on my specific advertisement because sports is what i've always been into and so i wanted to choose something that has to do with sports and that's the advertisement i chose. My idea for my redesign came because gatorade was really meant for male athletes and i wanted to have a totally different audience in young women. I really just pictured it in my mind and thought how good Gatorade would do if they can pull this off, but it's unrealistic because that's not their audience. Some challenges that I faced starting my essay were trying to think if this advertisement would actually sell and i actually really think that it can. I just thought of how the audience would react to this product and decided where this advertisement would be and thought of how it would be bought and why it would be bought and it helped complete my challenge. I really enjoyed the opportunity to make a whole new design with the celebrities that I decide to pick. I thought it was very fun to me. I used this to my advantage by choosing the number one celebrity in the world right now, Justin Beiber. I feel like i have a greater understanding of the audiences that advertisement companies aim for and what celebrities they use to fulfill sales to their audiences. Even though I got an 85 percent on this paper, i don't think i would change one thing because I thought I covered all the details and i wouldn't want to change a thing.
