The Old spice Commercial of Greg Jennings was pretty funny in my opinion. It is promoting the mixture of spice and champion together. I personally love the smell of that soap. Pretty much what this commercial is starring is a great champion mixing business and pleasure together. Overall its a great commercial and I could watch it over and over again.

I woke up with the worst headace of my life-as usual. I rolled up from my bed with a huge smirk on my face. Looking through my closet for my work clothes I realized I had no clean clothes. My stomach then speaking me so I quickly ran over to the fridge. Suprisingly, there was no food. Just a loaf of bread and a half a bottle of milk. Glancing over at the clock I then realized I was ten minutes late to work. "Damn" I screamed out loud. "Could my morning get any better?" Quickly I grabbed some clothes from the dirty laudry and bolted out to the car.
Driving onto I-95 in my 1995 beat down nissan versa the traffic began to get heavy. A car had flipped over into a canel. The scene looked horrible. I saw a young girl with a missing leg and shoulder bone sticking out. She was getting pulled away in a stretecher. There were three injuried in the accident.
Finally I get to work and before I could walk to my desk my co-workers bitched at me for being late. I coldly brushed them off and spotted a folded letter placed on my desk. I immediately began to read it. "Please meet me at my off" were the words I repeatively read over. My heart was beating rapidly. The palms of my hands began to get moist, I couldn't help but to think "what did I do wrong?"
20 minutes later, after I've gathered my thoughts, I walked my way over to my boss office. I waited outside her office for almost a decade it felt like. "Lisa please come into my office," My hearted dropped and my legs went num.
I sat down in the comfy seat infront of her desk and glanced into her eyes. My boss handed me a enevlope. "What is this all about," I asked timidly. She remained quiet and watched me open the enevlope. Tears dropped from my face. She looked me in the face and announced that my services were no longer needed and I was free to go. I stormed out of the room slamming the door behind me.
I couldn't stop shaking. Quickly I grabbed the remaining of my shit from my desk. I over heard co-workers whispering to one another which made me feel ashamed. The ride home was depressing and long. I called my mom crying non-stop. Thinking over the past couple of months it didnt add up. I was no late to work, disrespectful to my peers, or was I a slacker. Walking through my front door I thought to myself "damn I am unemployed,"

Prompt 8
My favorite sports related movie is Love & Basketball. Love and Basketball stars Omar Epps and Sanaa Lathan. This movie is about a young love that grows over time. This love connects with two people that have a love for the sport of basketball. What makes this movie my favorite is because it is a inspirational love story that shows that the impossible is possible. All though people go through troubles it can be over come if the two people share the same passion.
Love and Basketball starts off as two young children having crush on one another. They eventually grow up and the scene leads to them being in high school. The girl is a tom boy that guys arent really attracted to and the guy is the big time jock that all the girls want. Soon they end up noticing one another at their high school dance. An they rekindle their lost love for one another. Eventually they end up breaking up in college and going their separate ways.
During this point of the movie, you can notice the gender roles that affected their relationship. The male character is the all star player on his team while the girl is struggling to get in the starting spot. This leads to him getting big headed and leaving behind the girl that cared for him all a long. This leads to arguments and then something bad happens. He gets injuried while playing in a game and isn't able to return of the season. He then gets engaged to this gold digger but then realizes that this is not what he wants.
The love between Omar and Sanna eventually sparks up again and they both become professional athletes. But this time they both have a baby girl and live happily ever after. Everytime I watch this movie I get jealous because thats what I want when I get older. It would be a dream come true if I could get married to somebody that has the same passion as I do. To me life would be so much more enjoyable. Thats why this movie gives me hope and passion. Unlike the "The Elmo" article this movie isn't about fake love. Although it was during the time when they were separated and with other people. They evenutally came back to one another because they shared true love.

Prompt 7
My favorite non-sports related movie would have to be Taken. Taken stars Liam Neeson, Maggie Grace, and Famke Janssen. It is one of the best action movie I've seen. Basically it is a movie about a father trying to rescue his daughter that was kidnapped in Paris. Her and a friend went on a vacation to a foriegn country and managed to get caught up with strangers that they assumed were "friendly." Little did they know that these strangers would soon break into their house and take them away for prostitution. Luckly, the girls father was on the cell phone with her while she was about to get adducted so she was able to describe the guys and let him have clues to find her.
So the father immediately does his research to rescue his daughter. He hires people to help, kills people, and eventually finds his daughter at a auction. She was being bought for prostitution from a rich guy. The father sooner then later finds out who bought her and is able to get her back into his arms.
All in all, this movie was interesting from the moment it start til it end. It grapped my attention because it could happen in real life. I am a little scared to travel out of the country a lone now and it makes me more aware of my surroundings because it could happen to anybody. Also sense the movie had so much action it had the viewer wondering what would happen next The acting in the movie was phenomenal. I could watch this movie over and over again any day.
