I like how I was able to connect the assignments to answering these interview questions. This was a part I enjoyed writing about because of how I connected my ideas from those assignments to learning in this class. These projects helped me become a better writer as well as a better learner. Though the projects were tough to me, I was able to learn and grow through my fellow peers in this class as well. This essay was strong and honest to what I've learned in this class as well as what made me a better writer.

I am most proud of how I am able to write towards a specific target audience now. Through this class, I am able to target an audience and adjust my writing process to that audience. That helped me a lot because in my future career I will have to adjust to my audience. I don't know what audience it can be, but these projects prepared me for what's to come. I'm proud of how I can brainstorm ideas and prepare my projects accordingly in my writing process to be a better and more efficient writer.

What I like most about my learning is how I can learn off of others and how quick I am to learn something new. Of course it takes time and failure but learning something new quickly is what I like about myself. In this class, I was able to learn new ways of writing through my fellow peers. My peers were able to critique my work as well as teach me new ideas. I was able to build off of my peers to learn and also revise my work to be better than it was before.

I am a fan of marvel movies and slowly starting to dislike the movies they create. I am pretty angry with the series just because of how soft they're making the movies and how they're trying to make it a comedy. Marvel would be better if it was more serious in the aspect of the storyline. Since they added too much comedy in the storyline, it ruins the seriousness of characters. The characters in the movie are more serious and cold blooded in the comics compared to how they're in the movies. I can use this example to help me give a scenario of how an angry fan can react towards this shift in the movies.

A show I enjoyed watching was "You". This show was a mystery and always ended in cliffhangers. The cliffhangers were the best part of the show because they kept me involved and interested in what will happen next episode. The never-ending suspense is amazing in keeping me hooked into the show and questioning many areas of it. This show will help me through the project because it made me angry as a fan too relating to this project. They replaced the entire cast and added a whole new cast which I didn't like. The new cast is annoying and doesn't make the show better than it used to be.

A show that was cancelled for me was Avatar the Last Airbender. I grew up watching it as a kid and enjoyed every second of it before leaving to go to school. I remember waking up each morning and it was always the show on my television that appeared before I left for the bus stop. The show ended and was cancelled a couple years back which made me sad. It was a great series that really caught my attention. I hear rumors that they're trying to bring it back sometime soon which excites me.

Podcasts have been a trendy kind of content that has been developed. They're engaged because of the conversations they're able to bring with them. The audience listens in to learn new things, hear stories, or be able to relate to what is being said. That main concept of relating to the podcasts is what stands out to the different styles of content. If an individual can relate to a story, they'll know they're not alone. If an individual can learn something new and be inspired, they'll continue to listen in to help better themselves. If an individual enjoys listening to stories, then they'll continue to tune in until the end to see what happened. Music may be entertaining, but it may get repetitive so that's where podcasts come in to replace the music for entertainment.
