Interpretation

          I would like to interpret an advertisement that has a man with a canoe and he looks like singing in the middle of the "ocean". The ocean is made up of televisions and speakers.


          I interpreted the ad as a wealthy man, " I don't care about this ad, I have more money than him. I can buy more and bigger televisions. I already have those televisions and speakers."


          I interpreted the ad as a person in a poor place, " That picture shows me that they are wasting their money. They should donated their money for the poor people's basic needs instead of buying those televisions."


         I interpreted the ad as an 8 year old kid. " The ad is so cool! I want to be that guy canoeing in televisions and speakers. And I wonder what does it feels like when standing in a canoe in the real ocean."

Creep Nathan Kotylak

Nathan Kotylak is a 17 year-old teenage boy and an athlete that was banned from the National Water Polo Team because of what he did in the Stanley Cup riot in Vancouver. A bystander took a picture of him trying to put fire on the gas tank of a police's car and posted it in to the internet. And the image of him easily spread to the different social media sites. The social media sites were making the situation worst! He accepted some consequences and wrote a long statement, apologizing of what he did.
