Taylor Swift - Mine



Why are you sharing this song?

I am sharing this song for two reasons, one is that I am such a big fan of Taylor Swift; 
Two is the lyrics of this song is beautiful and I can picture this story by her lyrics. 
Besides, it was so hard for me to choose one song of hers to write this assignment 
because the lyrics of her songs are always meaningful and you can realize what she
felt and what she wanted to convey by songs that she wrote.
But I choose this one to dedicate to people who will find the best thing of their life.

What is the meaning of the lyrics?

This song is a story about a girl who came from unhappy family,
that her parents' had quarrel with each other all the time in her memory,
which made her wonder why people bother with love if it never last?
She met a boy that she could picture her future with him and 
he made a rebel of a careless man of careful daughter so she said to him,
"You are the best thing that's ever been mine."
Although they got nothing figure out sometimes, 
the good things between them,for example,
they were sitting there by the water, and he put his arm around 
her for the first time, gave her power to carry on.
A fight happened in 2:30 am which everything were out of their control,
all of she has knew and learned from her parents' experience was
 that she needed to say goodbye to him and ran way,
but he ran after her and said, "I will never leave you alone."
And he also replied what she asked in the chorus,
"I remember how we felt sitting by the water,
and every time I look at you is like the first time
I fell in love with careless man's careful daughter ,
she is the best thing that's ever been mine."
After listening to this kind of love confession,
the girl could see their future and she thought they would 
go through every problems in the future together.

What a beautiful and romantic song! 
Hope you will like it as much as I do.

Coke Zero Commercial:AND?



What is happening in the commercial?

 It started with a boy wanted something more about his ice cream,
so when ice cream shopper handed ice cream without any candy or 
chocolate on it to him, "and?" he asked. 
Then, ice cream shopper add something on his ice cream.
Second, after seeing a dog which could ride a skater, the teenager asked,"and?" 
The dog turned out to be a shut dog.
When the teenager grew up to be an adult, he took a job offer and asked,
"and?" His boss promised he for giving him a bright future. 
After seeing these, we could suggest that he was a man who wants 
something more because he always asked,"and?".
However, once he drunk Coke, before he asked,"and?" he found that on its
bottle "real coke taste AND zero calorie!"
 It was first time that someone gave him more 
before he asked so he was very happy and said thank you to Coke zero.

What is the product or service?

Coke Zero

Who is the target audience?

People who like Coke Cola but don't want to get fat.

 What emotions does it use to persuade the reader to buy the product or service? (fear, guilt, excitement, humor, etc.)

I Think it was excitement because people want to see what's going to happen after we ask,"and?"
The plots were funny too. Moreover,This commercial is short but it was quiet catchy.



 Does it do a good job in persuading the watcher to buy the product? Why or why not?

 I think it did a good job because what happened in this commercial
it what actually happened in our daily life,
we tend to want something but sometimes we were too shy to ask or
we just want someone can realize that what we need/want before we asked.

SAFARI YELLOWSTONE - Grizzlies and Moose


Why am I sharing this documentary?

  Before I watched this video,I haven't known that  Yellowstone is home to a large variety of mammals, birds, fish, reptiles and amphibians, many of which migrate within the Greater Yellowstone Ecosystem.
I think it's kind of interesting that the describer said there's a easiest way to find out where the wildlife are is where the people are, and there is no place like this in Taiwan.

Summary of the documentary:

  This video is one of safari Yellowstone series, it's about Grizzles and moose. They(the describers and his friends)drove the car to the west entrance of Yellowstone and found out where people were 
was where wildlife were, they took a lot of pictures to these iconic wildlife in Yellowstone 
like bison, the bald eagles in the blue sky ,etc. Before making a u-turn to the entrance, 
they found a Grizzly Discover Center and there was a broad of the map about where the bears
recently spotted. There was some bears in this center and there were some traps there
because the bears just killed the hikers. 
  Mt.Haynes Area is a naturally reseeded by wildlife in 1988 and describers found some male 
deer of which they took a lot of pictures.And at Great Village there was another traffic jam 
since there was another male deer spotted, also, the research found out these male deer 
tend to group up with other male deer in attempt to keep them protection up.
  They drove to Grand teton for searching for moose, they followed the footprints and 
waited for longtime to see moose and finally they saw some, 
and they went back with full happiness.

 I love this balance of Yellowstone,
"try to let people appreciate the world around and not to get hurt."
 and Yellowstone is the special place for people and wildlife.
