The product that I will be writing my review on will be L'OREAL nail polish. I particularly like this black, styling new polish I recently purchased. It has this dazzling sparkle to it that anyone would love. It's not too runny, but it's also not clumpy, it has a nice texture to it. One coat of this product is plenty, but I prefer to have a second coat. This product can also come in many colours such as red, blue, purple or even orange, you chose! As a bonus, the L'OREAL nail polish is only $4.99. What a deal! I would most definitely recommend L'OREAL nail polish for users.
This image is of my high school friends and I. This picture captures the strength of friendship, this was took in our first year of high school when we first met. Unfortunately, people go their separate ways and that is something that can't be shown in the visual. Like I had mentioned in my introduction I come from a small town called Hare Bay here in Newfoundland, therefore everyone knew each other growing up, until a few small communities joined together to form Jane Collins Academy. It didn't take long before we all got to mix and mingle, getting to know each other. We were more than friends, a family you could say. Furthermore, we graduated, moved on and now we seem to have unfortunately drifted apart. You may even say some of us became strangers. It's sad how you could be such good friends as this image demonstrates to something so little.
Pets are the best!
I chose this for my second image because i love animals. Something I didn't mention in my introduction. I have a wonderful dog named Charlie, he's quite the character, When I say this I mean if the garbage disposal is moved into the doorway a little he won't walk by it or he will turn around and walk backwards through the door way and continue on. He's scared of his own shadow, but he is super lovable. He doesn't like to be left alone and don't mention the word "treat" or "walk" when hes around or your done for. With this being said, in the image above there is another furry friend, a hamster. I have a hamster which I originally named "Chewy" for no apparent reason, but my mom decided she wanted to call her Snoopy, so no we just go with it. We take her out of her cage to play with her and to feed her treats or to put her in her little ball that she bangs around the house in.. sometimes escaping! Finally, I would like to say, what makes me like this picture so much is that I tend to put my hamster on my dog's head as shown above. As I said, hes scared of his own shadow, so the dog's eyes and ears made me think of this.
Just a quick note, i got the image of the dog and hamster off of google.
Don't believe everything happiness says
Nothing feels better than hiding these days
We bury our fears in the drinks, in these tears
For the days we believed we could fly
Call up your brothers and sisters and friends
We'll go back to the place where the night never ends
We'll remember the fires, the burning car tires
Boy how in the hell did we get here?
So why don't you meet me, down behind the old school
We'll waste away the weekend, with perfect regard for how
Cavalier we used to be, that beautiful insanity
The apathy's surrounding me
Don't close your eyes or we'll fade away
Over and over and over again
We sat down for a minute, grew up into men
Now we're putting out fires and changing car tires
Man how in hell did we get here?
So why don't you meet me, down behind the old school
We'll waste away the weekend, with perfect regard for how
Cavalier we used to be, that beautiful insanity
The apathy's surrounding me
Don't close your eyes or we'll fade away this time
And we'll never get back what we
Gave away, when we still have that fire in our eyes
Don't believe everything happiness says
Nothings as real as our old reckless ways
When we drink by the fires
The burning car tires
Bad girls and good liars
The dreams we'd conspire
The days we went crazy
The nights wild and hazy
Man how in the hell did we get here?
So why don't you meet me, down behind the old school
We'll waste away the weekend, with perfect regard for how
Cavalier we used to be, that beautiful insanity
The apathy's surrounding me
Don't close your eyes or we'll fade away
Why don't you meet me, down behind the old school
We'll waste away the weekend, with perfect regard for how
Cavalier we used to be, that beautiful insanity
The apathy's surrounding me
Don't close your eyes or we'll fade away
It can be seen in the song above, that I have chosen "Old School" by Hedley. This song is very enjoyable to listen to. Although it doesn't have much of a rhyme scheme, it still has some rhythm. The music causes the song to have a beat which creates the lyrics to have rhythm, the meter of the song isn't consistent. However, in the fifth stanza, starting at line twenty three and ending at line twenty seven there is a syllable count of six, along with a rhyme scheme of a,a,a,b,b. The chorus is repeated three times throughout the song, once in the middle and twice at the end. The stanza's have fairly long sentences, but is rather short.
It seems to me the speaker of "Old School" would be a middle aged person who misses their teenage years. In stanza two, the lyrics say that he wants to get everyone together and go back to where they used to spend all of their time. It also states, "we'll remember the fires, the burning car tires" which obviously lets people know hes remembering the years when he was care free. This leads to the many examples of imagery in "Old School". Imagery represents objects, actions and ideas that brings us to our physical senses. This particular sentence demonstrates, smelling the tires burning, feeling the warmth of the fires, the crackling of the fire and the smoke in the air. Another example of imagery could be, "Why don't you meet me down behind our old school", it makes me think of my high school and many memories made with friends. The very first line shows a sign of poetic element, personification. "Don't believe everything happiness says". Also in line six, "We'll go back to the place where the night never ends" is a hyperbole, as well as, "we sat down for a minute, grew up into men". Which leads to an oxymoron," cavalier we used to be that beautiful insanity".
Jacob Hoggard sings this song very well, he really sets his mind on memories as he sings it. It's obvious that this is a social song, as it talks about the things the speaker used to do with his friends. This song also gives you some advice, it tells you that you shouldn't wish your time away. When your young your care free and have no responsibilities, as you grow up you and your friends will eventually go your separate ways and everything changes. It also tells you to hold on to your memories and cherish them forever. Personally, I like this song because it reminds me of back home and my high school and all the stupid things me and my friends done over the past few years.
Hello, my name is Brooke Cross. My hometown is Hare Bay, Newfoundland. This is my first year at Memorial University. Coming from a small town can make this change very intimidating for me, but I am lucky to have another student from my graduating class here with me. I like to play volleyball and badminton. Our high school volleyball team has won many medals throughout the years. GO JAGS GO!! In the winter, my family and I love to go on a ski-doo run with the community. It's a fundraiser for our towns fire hall. In the summer, my friends and I enjoy camping. We like to go swimming and sitting by the camp fire roasting marshmallows. I'm looking forward to meeting new people and enjoying my time at MUN to the fullest!
