20% Project #13



Blog #13

  My twenty percent project presentation was on Thursday and I believe the overall presentation was pretty good. The way I feel like I presented myself to the class was great, but the presentation could have definitely been better. I think my project was pretty basic only because I felt like I had more time and in the end it didn't turn out that way. The week I was suppose to present, my teachers decided to hand out and assign other presentation which gave me less time to work on the project. I know it's not an excuse because as a student we should all find a time to do all of our assignments, but I guess I should have managed my time just a little bit more wisely. In a way I am proud of myself because I worked on the project all by myself and I felt good to at least have something more presentable for the class. I really let myself down for not doing an excellent job, but I have learned from this experience. I now know that I can't work in group projects only because I know I always end up doing all the work. This has happened to me many times and I am very tired of working in a group, but I know I'm going to have to do this again eventually and hopefully my experience is better the next time. The mural.ly took a little more work than most presentations, but I definitely wish it could have been better and I know it could have been better if I had more help, but it is what it is and I'm really glad to have done this project, but I just wish I could have actually done something and be more proud of myself. This project definitely took a lot of time and I'm sure the outcome would've been better if I would've persevered and tried harder to get this assignment done.

20% Project Blog #12

Blog #12

For this weeks twenty percent project I researched how Kim Kardashian and Kanye West's wedding was coming along. Sources say that the wedding is such a huge secret that not even Kim knows that much about her own wedding. They also say that Kanye wants it to have the surprise of the century and he's planning almost everything.














The couple is planning to exchange their "I do's" in Versailles. Part of the post-wedding celebration will take place at a 16th century fort in Florence and the guests have not been told in detail about Florence; not even where they will be staying for the night. Most guests don't even know how they are going to be getting from Paris to Florence. There is said to be a second event in Florence which Kanye is keeping extremely top secret. Kanye is also trying to keep Kim off her phone and away from the internet or any media.












The Palace of Versailles has 5 spaces available for events ... but sources say Kim's tying the knot in a place only a few others have occupied.

20 Percent Project Blog #9

Blog #9

 For week nine of my twenty percent project I chose to write about how Selena Gomez decided to turn her back on her former friends Kendall and Kylie Jenner because she wants to focus on music. She believes that the Jenner sisters are nothing but a toxic distraction... sources tell TMZ. 
















Selena says that she felt epiphany after going to Coachella last week where she was surrounded by booze and drugs while hanging out with the Jenner sisters, Justin Bieber and everyone else that comes along with them. Selena said that she was sick of that scene and said she wanted to cut out all the sources that cause that negativity which included Kendall and Kylie.













Gomez made the cut off official when she unfollowed Kendall and Kylie on Instagram and deleted all of the pictures she had in Coachella. She then unfollowed Justin Bieber and it is said that she now follows zero people on Instagram. Selena is determined to stay on track by focusing on music and going to church almost daily.

For week eight of my blog, I chose to write about the way Justin Bieber showed up at Drake Bell's album release party on Thursday. Drake Bell and Justin Bieber have had their fights, but over twitter. Drake has always insulted him and have never had respect for him or his music. Justin never really payed much attention to his remarks, except for that day. 
 















It was said that Bieber showed up at Drake Bell's album release and his fans swarmed! Justin posted on Instagram, "So nice seeing my fans at the grove tonight." A video was also posted of the Canadian pop-star in their midst. He then posted and deleted an Instagram video of Bell staring down at the van he was in with the caption,"Why is @justinbieber sprinter van getting more attention than my album release party?" 



















Drake fired back at the pop star on twitter saying,
"@justinbieber dude! Thank you for coming to my party I didn't know you were downstars sorry they didn't let you in!! Should have hmu!"

20 Percent Project Week 3

Blog #3 

 For week three of my blog, I chose to write about the fashion going on at the Oscar Awards that took place March 2, 2014. I chose to write about this because the Oscars are one of the most important awards. It's something everyone looks forward to and sometimes I think it's not even for the awards, but to just see what people will be wearing and how they present themselves in front of everyone that is present that day and in front of the world watching. As always, there is a best and a worst dressed at any awards. 

For the Best Dresses, Angelina Jolie took the spotlight from everybody at the Oscars wearing an Elie Saab Haute Couture gown with 42 carat diamond earrings. 





















The worst dressed in this years Oscars was the talented Lady Gaga who wore a strapless, curve-hugging gown with a chiffon scarf. Everyone expected just a bit more from her considering she as a singer is always pushing boundaries music and fashion wise.

20 Percent Project Week #2

Blog #2

 Week two of my twenty percent project involves the stunning celebrity Jennifer Lawrence and her new Dior Campaign. Just last month E! News broke the news to everyone that she had extended her contract for a longer period of time with the brand for an estimated of $15 million. Just like the previous campaign, The Hunger Games star poses with minimal makeup, her short hair styled in a wind-swept ‘do. 



"It feels nice when you're dressed in something beautiful and you feel beautiful or you wear an outfit you feel really proud of …it can be really fun and therefore make you happier," she explains.

One of my favorite Dior dresses was the dress I wore in Cannes but I do obviously have very special memories of the dress I wore to the Oscars. Some fun, some not. They need to make it more accessible for stairs in my opinion," she jokes, referring to her infamous fall last year.

On March 2, Jennifer Lawrence will be wearing Dior to this year's Oscars.  She's already paid one visit to select her haute couture dress and obviously we can't wait to see how the dress looks!

20 Percent Project Week #1

Blog #1 

 For my second period twenty percent project, I chose to do Celebrity News. The twenty percent project is a project where you pick your own topic and write about it each week. My partners and my topic is Celebrity News and the whole point of this is to keep individuals updated on the crazy life of celebrities. This weeks topic was the incident that happened with Kylie Jenner while she was on the trampoline along side her older sister Khloe.

It's all fun and games until someone gets hurt! 


By the looks of the pictures that Khloe had posted, Khloe Kardashian and Kylie Jenner

seemed to be having a blast on the trampoline until things took a turn for the worse. 


























In the picture below, 16 year old Kylie Jenner looks like she might have hurt her back. What started off as a playful trampoline war ended in tragedy! 



























That day Khloe Kardashian tweeted,"Kylie this is proof you did it to yourself! Sorry not sorry! Just kidding I am sorry my little bug a boo!! Let the war continue!!!!" 

 The 16 year old then posted up a picture on instagram (picture below) with the caption, "in the hospital thanks to @khloekardashian. (Look at her page for the reason why) my mom said "never thought i would take u to the doctor for a trampoline accident at this age) this means war Khloe. Ps. It was painful taking this photo" 



Just as the tweet sent out by Khloe,  this Kardashian sister continued her fun on the trampoline with her other sister Kim Kardashian without a care in her mind. Shortly after the incident occurred, Kim Kardashian posted up pictures on the trampoline along side Khloe.
