The album Highly Overdue by the group Pak X Emh is an
important album to me because the members of the group are closely involved
with the motocross industry. One member with the alias Justin Lucas actually
has a Monster Energy Supercross title to his resume. His real name is Justin
Bogle and he is an athlete in motocross that I look up to. He has a positive
attitude and a hardworking personality and has impressed many critics in our
sport with on the bike talent as well as off the bike talent. He has great
lyrics and musical styling. This album, the week it debuted, was as high as
no.2 on the iTunes best sellers list. That list included top artists like Rick
Ross and Lil Wayne. No matter what genre of music you prefer, anyone can agree
it is very impressive that a private record, made in spare time, by a
professional athlete and his friends is impressive. What stands out the most to
me are his lyrics and beats which always motivate me to achieve the goals I set
and perform to the best of my ability, 100% of the time.

Journal 5: Incredibles Review (Revised)
The first time I watched The Incredibles I was, like, 10
years old. And at that time I probably jumped off my couch onto one of my
younger brothers trying to beat him up like one of Syndromes war machines. 11 years later, re watching the film for
probably only the second time I have ever seen it, I have notice so much more.

Journal 4: Blankets Book Trailer
Blankets by Craig Thompson |
Typically a trailer for anything whether it’s a video game,
movie, book, or sporting event gives brief background information, a slight
summary, but never reveals the ending. I
like to think of trailers as the ultimate definition of, judging a “book” by
its “cover.” Within two short minutes or so, I know if what I am watching is
worth investing my time into the entire contents the preview is revealing.
Until now I was pretty much unaware trailers about books were a “thing.” Books/Novels,
in my opinion, are much more difficult to advertise and describe in a trailer because
they are very complex and time consuming.
An effective trailer, one which reveals the most appealing themes of the
book, would be successful in attracting readers.

Our group decided that
the best processes for us to teach others, that relates to all of us, is how to

JOURNAL 3: If You're Reading This, Its Too Late
The surprise drop of Drakes new mixtape If You're Reading This Its Too Late has left quite and earthquake of controversy in the music industry. According to Pitchfork rumors have been circling that this mixtape marks Drakes separation from the Cash Money Records label. But what does this have to do with this blog? Rewind to the first post, mentioning rapper and motocross racer Justin Bogle. He was the topic for a review of Drakes new album at last weeks Arlington Texas Supercross race. I didn't discover the album until I browsed my favorite motocross websites and I just so happened to find an article on Pitchfork also reviewing the mixtape.

"Disconnected" Blog Post Response
In the film Disconnected made in 2007 I was very impressed
with how long the students went without using a computer. I honestly would have cheated on the third
day. Not because I don't have discipline
but because being a student now requires daily computer use. I know for a fact
I would never be able to use a type writer, and I don't even know where to find
one anymore. I was shocked to see flip
phones and such pixelated games. We are
all so used to high resolution and such aesthetic digital styling it is amazing
how far we have come in such a short period of time.
