![]() GLOW IN THE DARK STARS I got glow in the dark stars as one of my objects. Fads are patterns in and out. They seem cool for a while while everyone has them, but they soon get old. The same is for hip hop and pop music. We listen to that kind of music from the 90s and wonder what we were thinking..My second object was pictures of the ocean and how hip hop flows like the oceans waves like fads flow in and out. There are patterns of what goes in style will go out but return down the road, just maybe tweaked a little bit. For example leggings and teased hair from the 70s. Many people tease their hair and wear leggings but later down the road we will look at pictures and see how retarded Bump-Its are. Glow in the dark stars are fads, many of us had them but now most likely none of us would want them, the ocean and like hip hop are constant, continuous patterns and beats. Fads flow like the ocean because the come in, come out, and return again………. Nature vs Nurture? I found this website to have so much informative and interesting information. This video explains itself. It shows how the media transforms our ideas of perfection. This ordinary woman has been transformed into something completely different than who she is or what she really looks like. She has been completely photoshopped into a different person by changing her hair, face reconstruction, making her look slimmer, and her makeup is airbrushed on. The media gives girls a false hope because they will never achieve their ideal physical appearance of what they think is ”beautiful.” What is shown on t.v, or in magazines instills a message that beauty is perfection which is simply not true.
Nature isn’t always beautiful. It causes many devastating natural disasters as seen here in Haiti…
Heres an article I found on a news website… Rayner, Gordon. “Haiti earthquake: death toll may hit 200,000” earthquake: death toll may hit 200,000 Anger has turned to violence on the streets of Haiti as survivors lose patience with the painfully slow process of getting international aid after the earthquake that authorities say may have killed 200,000 people. Haiti’s shell-shocked government gave the United States control over its main airport to bring order to aid flights from around the world and speed relief to the impoverished Caribbean nation. Trucks piled with corpses have been carrying bodies to hurriedly excavated mass graves outside the city but thousands of bodies still are believed buried under rubble. “We have already collected around 50,000 dead bodies,” Paul Antoine Bien-Aime, Haiti’s interior minister told Reuters. “We anticipate there will be between 100,000 and 200,000 dead in total, although we will never know the exact number.” Around 40,000 bodies have been buried in mass graves.
