Saint Augustine, Florida

As you arrive at the lighthouse in Saint Augustine, Florida you start to hear people screaming and laughing at the beach. The birds in the distance start to clash with the ocean waves making a beautiful noise. The hot sand feels good on your feet while the light breeze is blowing. The plam trees are lined up in neat rows. The salty water mixes in with the air making your mouth taste salty. It feels like paradise, nothing else in the world matters. As you enter the lighthouse door, you smell fresh, clean wood. Smiling faces are waiting to greet you. It's a great place to visit.

Advertisment Analysis

To avertise fearlessness Hallmark made a card depicting a girl raising her hand as if she knows the answer and really wants the teacher to call on her.
Using bright colors, the advertisment shows that it's a happy advertisment. The two girls are smiling to show delightfulness. They use objects like globes, books, desks, and a clock to show its a classroom.
The purpose for this advertisment is to show self-confidence hence the word "confidence" in huge letters across the middle of it, making it the focal point. They use a card to advertise Hallmark. They want you to know by getting the card, you will be ecstatic and confident. Also, the setting is a classroom because they want kids to be confident and happy in school.
The whole meaning of the ad is wanting people to buy Hallmark cards and be exuberant. They want to make you feel secure and also try to sell their product at the same time. If Hallmark were to put sad little girls on the ad, they wouldn't be showing confidence, therefore the ad would be conflicting

I Am

I am kind and funny
I wonder about other cultures
I hear music
I see colors
I want to find happiness
I am kind and funny

I pretend I'm not scared
I feel happy
I touch the lives of those closest to me
I worry about the future
I cry about the deceased
I am kind and funny

I understand not everyone is the same
I say find the good in every situation
I dream of making everyone feel like they belong
I try to always do my best
I hope to be a nurse one day
I am kind and funny
