Describing myself in six words or less!
"HOGG IN THE GAME" the reason i have chosen this is because that has been me and the way I feel. The reason being is because everything I have done in my life I had to be the best at it. Always wanting to be better at everything made me be hogg at what I do.
The Diary of a Part-Time Indian (5)
The reason I have chosen this image is becaus he doesn't seem to see himself as feirce or noble as warrior would see themselves.

       Fresh Step Ad (16)

                The message sent to the audience is about upgrading your kitty litter if you have a cat. The purpose is not to be old fashion when it comes to your pet. The symbolism is of a cat parading around in need of a bathroom. The meaning is how other retailer(s) kitty litter cannot be smelt by the cat, leaving them to feel helpless when they cannot find their bathroom. The reason I have picked this cartoon is in favor of the first ad we went over as a class.
