Uplifting beer commercials about political unity, probably. Thanks, Heineken. (And I’m not the only one talking about this by the way) Watching this makes me smile, and it should make everyone else smile as well. But why does it make us smile so much? t’s just people […]

EXTRA STUFF: Individual Office Hours
Today, I came into office hours to discuss my annotated bibliographies and final project. Professor Hoskins was late, and I was the third person in line. I waited a while, but it was very much worth it. I got a better understanding of what I was missing from the annotated bibliographies and now understand the […]
Office Hour Visit 4/24/17
During my office hour visit with Professor Hunter Hoskins, we took a look at my revised Reading Analysis 4. At first, it lacked specificity and thorough analysis. I was able to focus on Fleming’s argument then continue from there. In the first draft, I failed to address the sociospatial dialectic which is the main idea […]
Extra Reading Annotations
I was scouting the net for new music this week, and I stumbled upon a somewhat familiar name, Lil Peep. http://www.thefader.com/2017/02/08/lil-peep-gen-f-interview-hellboy-crybaby http://pitchfork.com/features/rising/10001-tears-of-a-dirtbag-rapper-lil-peep-is-the-future-of-emo/ I found two interesting articles written about him and annotated the articles using Zotero. These two articles stuck out to me due to their usage of commas and the way the authors were […]
EXTRA STUFF: Course Concepts
The course concepts of this class relay on the idea that “college writing courses offer a core set of skills and experiences, emphasizing both continual practice and increasing complexity of reading and writing assignments.” While taking this college writing section, I bettered my abilities in analyzing texts, how to effectively evaluate sources, and have new […]
Office Hour Visit 4/20/17
During my office hour visit with my Professor Hunter Hoskins, we took a look at my revised first group of digital archives. I completely redid them and made them multimodal, including links to Gonzaga’s website, maps of the main campus, and other pictures that are related. This will make it much more engaging for the […]
Extra Stuff: Poll regarding the entertainment industry
I wanted to better understand my colleagues opinions on the entertainment industry, so I created a poll. My location is the Warner Theatre for our semester long project and I wanted to create this poll to ask my friends simple questions about theatre and music as a whole. I asked the basic questions of […]
NMAAHC: Designed for Greatness
I have been to the National Museum of African American History and Culture twice now. I spent hours there each visit and I still haven’t gotten through the whole museum it seemed never ending. Just like African American culture….its never ending. The way the museum is set up for the viewers is to start on […]
TeNehisi Coates Discussion Periscope
Throughout his InBound 2016 speech, TeNehisi believes that America needs to address their underlying issues and stop ignoring them as if they do not exist. Within his speech he refers to how slaves were worth more than $3.8 billion which was what the wealth of America was at the time of around 1860. He explained how the economy at […]
TeNehisi Coates Discussion Facebook Post
Ta-Nehisi Coates started out the conversation with his wife’s love of France and how she wanted him to go there as well. She knew he would love it because he loves European history so it only makes sense for him to go to Europe and see it for himself. Ta-Nehisi told his wife he would […]
