I can’t remember the first time I got blood drawn, but I can definitely remember the last time. I walked into a room crowded with instruments designed to draw and analyze blood. I sat down in a maroon-colored padded chair. The chair had an armrest specifically designed to give the nurse a convenient area to draw the blood. An enormous African-American woman with long cornrows walked in, wearing the largest clothes imaginable. Beads were hanging from her hair, clanging together with each waddling
“Hey look the happy rapper’s not so happy now. I remember when I used to laugh out loud. Nowadays I only LOL, through text cause I don’t wanna talk, don’t touch me I don’t wanna feel.” In his song “Remember Me” Kyle describes how he begins to lose himself because of his pain. Indian/Pakistinian writers do this through their writing as well. During the time period this literature was written India gained independence from Britain, and separated into India and Pakistan.

"Football is football. Talent is talent. But the mindset of your team makes all the difference." A based on a true story Disney film, Remember the Titans showed how a diverse football team became one. Disney wanted to make a feel good movie but they left out a few key points for a white and black high school football team come together. This being said, I believe Remember the Titans was not an accurate movie because of the racial issues, how the football scenes were depicted, and the climax of movie

Analysis March 4, 2014 For this project I selected A Walk to Remember written by Nicholas Sparks and directed by Adam Shankman. The cinematography was done by Julio Macat.
