Reading question

July  31 2012

In fifth teen years I see myself as the best rapper alive, producer, and entrepreneur. I’m going to be doing shows all over the world and have a network of 240 million dollars. No joke, I also see myself accomplishing and winning a lot of B.E.T, M.T.V, Hip-Hop and also a Grammy awards. I can see myself living in Beverly Hills in a penthouse suit with a view top that overlook the city, and an Infinity pool. I’m going to have four cars, Bentley, Lamborghini Mercy, Range Rover, and Maybach.

Also in my future I would be giving back to communities all over the world, and helping kids pay for college. One thing I really want to do especially after reading the fire book is to help kids in Africa, I’ll give them better education, and resources.   I see myself with two kids and a dog, a daughter name jasmine and son name Adonis and a dog name Hova. I’m also gone have a beautiful educated wife who loves me for me.

I’m going to be taking trips all across the world and meeting new people. im gone spend most of my time in Paris at the fanciest hotel La Meurice , and be close friends with Jay-z Kanye West and LeBron James. I’m going to try and buy a country or a private island in the south west Bahamas and name J-walk.

Blog Question # 6

July 31, 2012

1.)        In fifteen years I see myself as living a successful life. Having a good job of music producing and playing the drums for people. Taking risk, doing business with artist and other musicians, and experiencing more things in my career.  I know I would be married sooner in fifteen years and have children. Ever since I was little I wanted to have a good wife that was going to be with me forever and have children when I graduate from college.  I would say I’m more of a family guy. I think I would still live in the state of Illinois or moved to the state of New York.  I don’t know but I know I’ll live in a state where jobs opportunities are looking for great musicians.

2.)        I never really had people I was around discouraged me of my craft. The people I was always around encouraged me to push hard with my craft because they want me to be something in life.

Question 6: Tre & Mario

                                                                        Fifteen years

1.                         Where do I see myself in fifteen years is somewhere nice and hot and living the good life with someone I’m in deep love with. I see myself being the women who I always dream for being, Woman with a good paying job and who put her family first no matter what happen in life. I can see myself married to a football player or someone who have the same goals as me in life. I can see myself with one child because I want to give him/her everything their want and not hold back anything. I want the all American family with the white dog too. Because that was something I never had growing up. So or later I want to be a stay at home mother to look over my child and spend time with him/her.  I never had that mother and child friendship growing up in my childhood like all my friends did. In fifteen years I can picture making all my dreams come true and not letting anything hold me back.  

2.                      As I think back to my child hood and try to find a time when I felt discouraged about my hobbies or my art, or my dreams. Is when the time back in high school when I tried out of this all state American cheerleading team and end up not getting pick. The summer before try out, I stayed at the gym that was my home. Everything I did that summer was only for cheer for making that team. Because I’m from a small town when football and cheer runs everything. Every boy and girl wanted to be on the football and cheer team and stop at nothing. And I was the same way. I made my high school cheer team but that wasn’t enough for my family or for me. So I find out about this cheer team that every girl wanted to be on because they were the best of the best for my friend. So that whole summer I stop hanging out, stop eating a lot of bad food and start working out, going to cheer camps and everything you can think of I bet that summer I tried it all just to be ready from the try out. But it was one thing I should never get down and that was being a flying. A flying was someone who get throw up in the air and had to do a move or say a cheer.  With my body small and how much I weight, that was something I had to do doing try outs no matter what. Every time at cheer camps I tried to learn how to fly but I just didn’t believe in myself, so I let that get the best of me. That summer went by far and out the blue came try outs and I had everything down but one. When it came time for me to fly, I went up in the air and didn’t say or do nothing, my mind and body just stop working all together. So it that point I knew I didn’t make the team.

            In fifteen years I would be living in downtown London in a little flat with a big red front door that would stand out from the rest. I would not have any children but maybe a partner. I would not spend my money on very expense thing because I would love to just go and travel the world and see as much of every culture as I could. I could see myself perusing a lot of things like singing dancing and acting. I could see myself already successful with a lot of Broadway shows under my belt, or maybe even opening a theater school where kids and young teens could learn how to dace sing and act. Job wise I would like to be on Broadway or a well-known jazz singer. Doing any of these things would make me happy. Preforming is what I long to do and love just getting on a stage and showing people what I have to offer would be better than any fame or fortune.

            As an artist I’ve always felt discouraged about my trade like maybe I wasn’t good enough or is it worth the risk. I’ve had many people say no your just not it, or I wasn’t good enough. One time I even had a judge say I was to sort and fat for this part. When this happens I always remind myself “you’re doing something you love”. There has been many of time when I cried and thought I wasn’t good enough, but I’ve never gave up I wipe my tears a grown a thicker skin. I will and would never stop until my dream is a reality.  

           

You said i can't what?

Thankfully I have never been discouraged about one of my hobbies or my art. Now I have at times felt like everybody was better than me and that I was no completion to anyone but I now use it as a time to evaluate my skill and simply better myself. I have always had a positive attitude for my art and I plan on keeping it that way. Nobody has ever told me that I can’t or that I would never amount to anything and besides if they did I more than likely would not get upset or angry I would just use it as a motivation. That type of stuff doesn’t bother me it just makes me want to prove them wrong and do what I said I was going to do originally. People are going to hate on you and say nasty things about you or tell you that you can’t do something or you want be anything but all you have to do is focus on what you want and make sure that you make the person who told you that look absolutely dumb. I can’t wait on the day someone tells me that I can’t be anybody I’ll simply look them in the eyes and say watch me take off and be everything that I said I would be.     

Adam Guerrero: Question 5

Adam Guerrero: Question 6

           

            Fifteen years from now I hope to be a film director, already made a successful film, living in California. I really don’t want to there because there is too much earthquakes, wildfires, and hurricanes, I’d rather stay here where I’m at now, but unfortunately that is where all the studios are. I would actually like to move somewhere around California, not in it. I will not be married because that is not for me, children maybe, just one, I’m not sure if I want any kids. But I definitely hope to be a film director at that time for sure, living in a nice big house with three cars, and everything I need. If I do become a film director, will be the best at it, and think big.

            There was a time in my life when no one believed that I could be a film director, because they said that it was not for me, impossible to get a job in that field, I know that it is hard to get a job in that career, but I believe that I could make it. I never stopped believe in myself, I always knew what I want and never strayed away from that path.

Geez! that is old. 15 years later.

Breje Shaw

Question#1:

In 15 years, I will be 33 years old. Geez! That’s old. Anyway I see myself on T.V working as an entertainment anchor for MTV, Access Hollywood or E! News. Giving my audience updates on the latest celebrity news, what’s hot and what’s not. Also, I see myself working as a full time model/ actress on every cutting-edge magazine from Seventeen, Essence, People and Stars magazine modeling all of the latest fashions. I see myself as an actress working on sets, advertising and doing commercials. But I think when I won’t be doing these amazing things I will be helping the children that have no nutrition and water and do everything in my power to help them. I would also try an open up an organization for kids and teens that have been bullied and potentially have harmed themselves. Why? Well, because throughout my life I have been bullied as well, and I want to be able to share my story with them and to tell them “Don’t worry what others say about you, you aren’t alone because I have been through it to, you may think others don’t care but, I do!” Being, an animal lover I want to open a hospital for underprivileged pets, because animals deserve as much love as we do.

Unfortunately, as you can see I will be pretty busy in many years to come. I do see myself married but, I don’t know to whom. We will see! I do want a child but, I want to adopt one.

Question #2:

            In my early childhood years, others have told me that “I will never fulfill my dreams because I’m not worthy enough.” And as a young child I have always wanted to be on T.V so my mom and I would go to countless auditions, and all said the same thing “I would love to work with her, but she has a soft voice although she has the look.” But, I can’t help it if my voice is soft; God made me this way so I’m happy with it. Another example is when I was 13, I went to a Modeling Management Company for an open casting call, I went up to the audition I was the only thin girl there the rest of the girls were boney, you could see there ribs out of the boney girls they picked them over me because I was thin. At, first I didn’t care but then I made a decision to lose weight if that’s what it takes to be a model. I felt so crushed when the agency told me that, I then realized that it doesn’t matter what size you are, you are  beautiful no matter what and don’t let people discourage you.

            And, today I have been to many auditions and still haven’t booked one at times I have gotten frustrated about this and at times I feel like just giving up. What others don’t know, if I could just have one break I would do nothing but work hard and be grateful for the opportunity. I will never give up on my dream I will make my dream a reality, it will take patience and time.

15 Years Later Devay Myatt

15 Years Later Devay Myatt

#1 Where do I really see myself in fifteen years? In fifteen years I see myself as a nice rich black man that has a great job and education. I will be owning my on record label company and will be a millionaire. I will own several companies such as Utamedbst Records and I will own the Ralph Lauren polo company. I’m pretty sure that in the fifteen years I will get married somewhere on the line in that time span. I’m not really sure where I will be living, but if I had the choice I would either still live in my home town Michigan or I would move somewhere down south not sure yet. My job would be the top music producer and ill have music business. If I do proceed in getting married I would like to have two kids and no more than that, but I want to make sure that I’m really rich first in order to really take care of my family just in case if we need an family vacation or something like that then we can make that happen. I also vision in fifteen years that I will be one of the top film scorers that they have ever heard in the world, my dream has always been to make the music in the next” Pirates of the Caribbean’s “movie.  I kind of always thought that I would make the music to the next Batman movie but I’m kind of to late they already made that movie so I’ll catch the next marvel movie that comes around and I have opportunity to make the music. That’s where I basically see myself in the next fifteen years or so.

#2There is this conference that I go to every single year in Atlanta and we go for some of the youth musicians that play on the international level. Well some days I use to beat myself up because I thought some of the piano players where better than me. I saw them doing things with music that I had never seen before or at least from where I come from. I wanted to give up only because I really didn’t believe in myself and I thought I kind of sucked. My mom and dad of course always had my back and other family members and they told me to keep sticking with the gift that you have which is piano and music. There was always this one person that I knew kind if well that told me one day that I wasn’t really going to make it in the music industry because of the attitude I use to always have. I straightened up my act and got myself together and I got rid of that old attitude. When I went to the next international conference I ended up wined the best musician award over thousands of musicians and ever since that I have always believe that I can basically do anything that put my mind toad n try my hardest and staying focus with that goal. I dream of this art and gift that I have every day and try to find ways that I can better myself to get where I need to go in order to make it better for myself.

It is coming.

Q1:

                I would have to say that in fifteen years I sort of see myself at least married, possibly to my current boyfriend, though who knows what would really happen. I can see myself sitting on the beach, in Los Angeles. When I am not busy working on the art for the game that my crew had just made so it would be out on the sales soon. On my vacations I would possibly travel the world. The places that I would like to go would have to be Dublin, Ireland, Cardiff, Whales, London, England, and Paris, France.   The home I would have would most likely be a penthouse apartment, with more than enough room. A huge office so I could do my writing and game art and things like that. For now there isn’t much say to what could happen in fifteen years but this is all that I would have to say that I would want to happen in my near future.

Q2:

                So say I would always feel myself being discouraged on my own. There were several times when I would start to write a book and could never seem to finish it. I would try and try to finish but could never get past the situation I would have my characters in, or I just get bored of writing the story. There were also some times that I’ll stop thinking that I could even write just because I never seem to finish one book. I would start one and then would start another and forget that I even had one that was already in the making. With that said I believe I have at least 5-10 books somewhere in my bedroom just sitting around WAITING to be finished and I would never seem to give them that feel of complete.

Where will i be in 15 years? Zullay Orozco

In fifteen years I will be a famous photographer married to someone famous. I don’t know to whom but it will be someone famous. I will have about three kids and live in a cottage (or maybe a big home) hidden in the woods in Arizona to hide from the paparazzi. I would take early morning coffee strolls with my husband and three dogs, an English bulldog, Rottweiler, and a Boxer.  Later on I would go to my studio (Half photo studio, Half Dance Studio) and do what I love to do the most, take photos of models, and teach ballet classes on the side. In the afternoon I pick up my kids from school, and if they’d like take them to the studio for a little. Then we would go back home to a cooked meal from my husband! Have a few glasses of wine and off to bed! Also, in fifteen years I would like to travel a lot, especially with my whole family. I would have special photo shoots in Paris and Italy, and I’d take my kids to watch me so that they could experience too. Hopefully I’ll make it big if I focus on my goals.

I felt discouraged about my photography once when I was told by an old friend (definitely not my friend anymore) that I would never be able to get into Columbia and that I didn’t have enough “talent” to get into this college. I was so upset, how could my own friend be saying this to me. Of course we were fighting and stuff but I would never even think that he would say something like this to me. I was hurt, and it did make me think a lot about my pictures making me look over them again and again. But in the end, I still didn’t let that stop me from what I love doing the most, taking pictures.

TRE's life in 15

In the next 15 years I am to be living the dream life.  In fifteen years I know for sure that I will be a big time 33 year old celebrity living in either LA or Florida in a nice and big beach house right off the water. I will be a big time drummer as well as producer for some of the hottest artist in that time. I’ll be making and playing all the different types of music and I won’t stay focused on one specific genre. I will be the first drummer to get sponsored by Jordan and Nike as well.  My smallest little brother will more than likely be my drum tech which means he will be traveling with me a lot. My annual income will be somewhere around $100,000 and $300,000   I will be engaged if not married and I might have three children at the very most. I will be hanging out with the hottest celebs on the regular basis. My family will be well taken care of as well as a few friends. I will be the Rex hardy junior of 2027. Everybody will know me as either “TRE TRE” the disc jockey or sticks the drummer. I won’t have any more student loans to pay off. My family will be able to have any and everything that they want. If all goes according to plan my life will be fairly simple and I won’t have too many worries. I plan to work hard throughout the next 15 -20 years so that once I retire I will be set for the rest of my life and so will my family.
