Week of March 27

I am working with Astrid, Byron, Elisa & Kailey on a PSA advertising pet adoption. For the first few days we were mostly planning and trying to get permission to film at a pet shelter. Forrtunately, we got permission and on March 25th we were able to film. We showed up to the pet shelter in Downey with the equipment, we spoke to the lady at the front desk, and very soon a security walked us over to where the animals were kept. They did not allow us to bring the dogs out of the cages, but we got some good footage. Most dogs wagged their tails at us which made me happy, yet sad at the same time because they have such limited space and nobody to express their love and loyalty to. Hopefully this PSA is effective and will actually get people to adopt a pet. After shooting we got straight to editing. So far we have about 50% of our PSA complete.

What Music Means to Me

Music is a part of my everyday life; it brings out emotion in me. For example, I start off my day by listening to music because I have an alarm on Pandora. I leave it on while im gettin ready for school and it puts me in a better mood. I listen to music while im doing homework, working out, driving,  doing chores, when im going to sleep,  walking somewhere, and while im showering. I feel like music is such a huge factor in everyone's life because people can relate to it as well as bond through it. For example, I feel great when another person and I like the same music, therefore sing the same song. It may sound corny, but it just makes people's bond even stronger. I am latina, therefore I learned to like spanish music such as corridos, but I also enjoy reggaeton, and main stream music. I would say my favorite music to listen to it bachata, especially if it is by Romeo Santos. I believe music can also define what kind of a person you are.

The Most Interesting Person in the World

The most interesting person that I have met is my aunt . I think she is interesting because she is very sneaky. She kind of lives a double life. She lives in Modesto with her 3 daughters and her son and occasionally her partner visits them. She does not work, yet she always wears the best clothes and always seems to be shopping. She goes out on the weekends to dances, the casino, etc. She gets into a lot of fights because she has a short temper. Almost every other weekend she comes to Los Angeles, where her husband lives. I say she is sneaky because her husband never catches her lies. She always seems to leave and return hours later, but I think she is interesting because despite her crazy actions, she has a kind heart. Growing up she was always the one giving me advice. She is interesting because to the world she is just a normal mom, while secretly she has a ton of things going on.
