First I will explain to you why I am consistent. I like to get things done so I can have fun in the long run. Being consistent is what I do so I can be successful. It will help me when I need it.
Now I will discuss me playing my PS3. My PS3 and I go together like peanut butter and jelly. I play it when I am done all of my work in order to prepare myself. Sometimes it is a stress reliever. I also play it for my own entertainment.
Lastly, I will discuss organizing my bedroom. I organize my bedroom in order for me to be in a clean and simple environment.I do it because I also don't want to be known as a slob. I also do it so I can stay clean and be consistent with my room.
I have discussed all of the hobbies of mine and what I like to do.Being consistent, playing my PS3, and organizing my bedroom is all I do. Well I hope you have a great time at New Media and I hope you have a good understand about what I like to do.
short review
I am Marcus Harris, guardian of Brandon Matthews. As I read through Brandon's blog I am reminded of some of the challanges of being a 13 year old, school assignments, schoolmate's crushes, parental authority, pop culture, and changing hormones. I am glad Brandon has an outlet that he can share his thoughts and feelings and I can ocassionally get a glimse into his world.
Civil Rights Essay
From what I have read, I am guessing that this article is referring to race. Discriminating against another race is an outcast to soceity in my eyes. I hope that Mr. Obama and Mr. Biden fulfil the positive changes that they both promised to America. One thing that this article promises is "President Obama and Vice President Biden will strengthen federal hate crimes". I agree that they should, because race is getting in the way of progress being made for America.
The article also states that "the executive brach will crack down on racial profiling". I also agree with this idea. The color of our president makes the media judge him, and it has an effect on all of us. Race should not be the center of attention at this time, it should be improving America.
I just want to see the better vision with a chage like Barack said. It's not simple at all leading America to victory. They both need our support to make this change.

Critical Analysis of Hip Hop - Lupe Response (Updated)
"Kick, Push II"
You can see the difference between the two songs. I am saying that Lupe is a pure honest artist, but he has more positive songs and meaningful songs than Biggie. Lupe is knowing what he is talking about. This song does not have a bad effect on me, neither the society. His music is telling the truth if what he is witnessing in the world. Lupe is an artist that is not worrying about shooting this and snorting that, he speaks knowledge. Unlike biggie, Lupe is speaking on his positive experiences, and discussing issues that is corrupting young minds today. Obviously, Lupe's songs are more positive than negative. He's a popular positive artist who does not run his mouth about non sense. His talent got him to be recognising as a "positve" rapper.

Critical Analysis of Hip Hop - Lupe Lyrics (Updated)
"Kick, Push II"
Look at what we did, came a long way from Dirty Ghetto Kids (Uh, yeah)
Look at what we did, came a long way from Dirty Ghetto Kids (Yeah)
You know what it is (Haha, uh, uh, come on)
When the cops didn't find him for grindin' though
They kinda blew the vibe, figured it was time to go
Plus, he had to at home a long time ago
And he had made like ten dollars off the sign he wrote
It read: "A little hungry, and need a little money, it's for my little sister, and her little tummy."
Critical Analysis of Hip Hop - Biggie Response (Updated)
"Suicidal Thoughts"
I say that this song was a menace to society in 1994. All of those derogatory words were not called for at all. Every single line there was one and this is one of the reasons why he got assassinated. From what I've heard he was raised by a single parent mother who was not a "crackhead" as he said. The life wanting to be a gangster caused him his life. He chose the route he wanted to go down in life. There is a difference from him and most of these rappers, he's dead they are alive.

Opening Ceremony (Updated)
The opening ceremony was a fantastic way to enter the school year. A couple of people came with their relatives and I enjoyed it. The best part of the ceremony was when we got up to say our vurture in the "circle of truth". My vurture was consistancy. I said consistancy because I need to work on being focus on one thing at a time.
The second favorite part was when we were blind folded for the"walk of faith". My guardian told me that he cared about me and he wanted the best for me, and I respect him for that. Last but not least, everyone headed down to the cafeteria to eat. The food was delicious, and original. To wrap it up, the opening ceremony was a fun experience, and I hope the 7th graders get to see it next year.
