Outside everyday, all night

Playing tag and kickball

Running to catch mr softee

Knowing everyone on your block

Riding the yellow bus to school

Hot days spent in the pool

Playing ding-dong-ditch with your friends

Block parties in the summer

Trick-or-treating in the fall

Snowball fights in the winter

Easter scavenger hunts in the spring

Life was simple…

Those were the good old days

friends quote

 

Monologue

Bang, Bang, Pop, Pop

Lights, Flashes, Sounds

Letting me know  I did it

I got the kill.

100 points, 50 more cause I got him…

In the head.

The feeling of accomplishment

Until I turn off my Xbox

and go do something Constructive.fat_patrick_by_brown2002-d5wit22

I chose these songs to accurately depict who I am. I feel society is very judgmental; less so today than 100 years ago. At one point, women could not vote. Woman’s equality is a major issue today as well. The 8th and 7th song shows the irony of the objectification of women. He makes these songs as a joke. Some people may think this is funny, and at first I did as well. However, it’s because we treat things such as this as jokes, it makes it seem that the objectification of women is just a joke. My views has changed drastically from near misogynistic to respecting women. This is the reason I put the song “I’m not afraid” on the list. It shows how Eminem has gone from substance abuse to how he now. Many people including myself have changed, but the ratio in which people have a stereotype for everything nowadays. I also love my mother very much, hence i put the song “Dear mama” in this playlist. She has raised me my whole life. I never realized how much she does for me until recently. To sum it up, I’m just an average everyday normal guy a the last song would suggest.
