Magazine Cover

Happy, Akins, Building

This picture is "Happy" because the locker room is like my 2nd home. It's where the volleyball team hangs out all year and the only place in the school that i can just be me, and relax.

This picture is "Akins" because when i think Akins i automatically think sports. Even though we don't have the best teams in our district, sports play an important role in our lives. This picture shows the hallway (thats located in the gym) where all sports (guys/girls) gather after games or before games when having talks with the coaches.



This picture is "Building" because when i think building i think about classrooms. This picture was taken in Mr.Voge's classroom. His classroom had rockets on his roof, and ive never seen another teacher do so. I thought it was unusual and a bit strange (in a good way), and it makes me have a diffrent prespective on the term "building".

Magazine Cover Types

Early magazines modeled their covers to look like book covers with a title and a publication date, but there was nothing shown as to what would be found in the magazine. The table of cover and the book like cover were used between the 1700-1800's. The symbolic cover was a typical symbolic manner to get people to read without knowing what's in the magazine. Some magazines used symbols on the cover that were closely related to those in the bible. Some newspapers had no covers and automatically started the first story. Magazines started to add a title of one of the stories that could be found inside, on the cover to appeal to the reader.

The poster cover magazines had artwork that had looked like it should've been framed and hung. Some poster covered magazines had no cover lines and the cover didn't relate to any of the stories inside. The poster mostly represented a general mood or the season. Covers celebrated industry and progress, and some covers slipped the cover lines to the unsed space at the bottom of the magazine. Covers began to be black and white and bold. Most covers had in common the fact that most had a single focus with small cover lines.

Pictures maried to type depended on it cover lines to get the readers attention and cover lines now became common.

2011 Reflection

The reason i chose this as a favorite photo is because when i first read this i thought it was funny, and i love how ironic it is that it was coming from a baptist church.


I like this picture first of all because the facial expression Derek Jeter has. Second because i love the Yankees. And third because of everyones faces in the crowd seems priceless and kind of already shows whats gonna happen.

I like this photo because i love to watch soccer, and Abby Wambach is one of my favorite soccer players. Plus i remember watching this game and her scoring this goal was amazing. Since the two girls on Brazil's team were right infront of her i was expecting it not to go in, but she didn't dissapoint.


Best Song:
Last Friday Night by Katy Perry because it reminded me of volleyball season. We would get all get pumped to this song. Which is kindof weird because half our team never really got along with eachother. So this reminds me of the good times in volleyball.

Best Movie:
The Decendents was one of my favorite movies because i can remember the day i saw that movie. My friend had  invited me to a movie premier and so it was free. I had no clue what it was about, but after i saw the movie i thought it was actually a really good movie and the ending to it was pretty intense. Plus i loved the scenery in Hawaii.


Important News:
I loved the Royal Wedding! I was completly infatuated with the whole thing, to the dress to the kiss to the outfits to the crazy hats worn.


Important Person:
Well my favorite important person in MY EYES, is Rachel Zoe. I love her and i would love to have her job. Her show recently came out with a new season where she had dressed so many stars for important events. And some of her good friends includes, Michael Kors (Louis Vuitton) & Karl Lagerfeld (Chanel). And i had also just heard of her this year,


Best Sports moment:
I think my favorite sports moment was pretty much the goal that saved U.S. in the game against Brazil. Without the goal they would've been eliminated in the 2011 World Cup. Megan Rapinoe had sent the ball to Abby Wambach who tied the score in the last few moments in the game.


During my break on New Years Eve me and my family headed up to the Main Event and it was my first time going. It was a blast. There was music going during bowling. Then we headed up to Lazer Tag where my team won. ;) Then we went to the Glow in the Dark Mini Golf. After we went Rock Climbing for a bit then when it got closer to Midnight we headed by the bar and the pool tables till midnight.
That was my pretty much my holiday break.

I wanna work out more than i usually do.(:

Im looking foward to the upcoming volleyball season.(:
