Thinking about the presentation

If you have been following my posts then you know that I had a presentation on May 24, 2019 aka last Friday. I have been thinking about it and how it had gone. I recieved a paper with some of my colleagues thoughts. Their thoughts were their opinions of my presentations. According to then I did great. My presentation was about how the brain works. I have been interested lately of how the brain works and why it is we do some the things we do. I was very nervous and even mentioned it to everyone that I was nervous and tried to relate it to the presentation. I was so happy when it was over. I think I did pretty good as well. Some of my colleagues thought were "Great presentation, good job getting the audience involved. I liked how you explained your topic" and "He provided details and explained how the parts of the brain work. Complex.". I really happy about how it went and kind of look forward to another.

My Best Writing!!

Alright so I have a meeting with a guy who goes by Dr. Preston. He's a teacher or professor I'm not entirely sure what his occupation is. I'm pretty excited to go over with him my masterpiece and a few things I wrote in my journal about my masterpiece. I'm super excited to hear what Dr. Preston has to say about my masterpiece because it'd be good to get any idea that I might could add. Knowing that I'm presenting  my masterpiece to my colleagues on May 24, 2019 I feel that getting a professor's opionion would be a great help. I have written down some things in one of my personal journals to keep some notes on my masterpiece. They're just ideas at the moment but I'm interested in seeing what Dr. Preston says about them.

Monkey See/Do/Hear

My masterpiece project is coming together pretty smoothly. For me to present I have looked up some information about my idea. I made a ppt (PowerPoint) for my presentation to my colleagues. Although it is not finished I plan to have it finished and present it on May 24, 2019. I have already took steps to doing a kineastedic way of presenting my presentation. Although, two of my colleagues caught on to what my masterpiece is. I give them props. As far as I know, none of my other colleagues have caught onto what my presentation is about.

BNW theme and personal analysis (essay basically if you're interested)

    So I finished the book "Brave New World" (I know I didn't post my notes on it been kind of lazy) and I thought of a quote that might fit this book. "Love isn't about lust, lust only makes things worse". This is something that I made up that I feel fits this book perfectly. What I basically mean is that love isn't just sex, in fact sex could turn things bad or make matters worse. Just like what happened with Jon in the book.
     As we know Jon is a white man birthed from a woman from the world state (who didn't beleive in natural birth). When Bernard takes Jon to the world outside the reservation, Jon gets super excited about the idea. However, Jon is surprised about what he finds. Keep in mind that when Jon saw Linina for the first time he fell in love almost immediately. Jon was super shy about being around Lenina like almost any typical person around their crush.
     Alright so going into the outside world Jon was super happy, he found his biological father and was finally where he wanted to be. Continuing on he started to become uncomfortable because of how the world worked. He didn't like that people took soma, looked exactly alike, and everyone banged everyone. He didn't like it one bit and didn't like the fact that Lenina was the exact same way. It started to destroy him inside when his mother (Linda) was dying and her doctor only gave her soma to kill her faster which was also a reason why he started to hate the outside world.
     There was a time in the where Lenina ended up with Jon in his room. Jon told Lenina that he loved her due to the fact that it was messing with him so much. She didn't understand the real meaning of love, she only thought love was sex just like everyone else. It's because of what she was taught that she started to undress for Jon thinking he wanted to have sex with her. He didn't. In fact he was trying to figure out what she was doing. When he figured out that she just wanted sex it made him very angry. He pushed her to the floor which causes her to run into the bathroom and lock the door because of her new fear of him. It was because of a phone call that she was able to escape.
     There was a point in the book where Jon got tired of seeing people take soma. He was watching Deltas (I think) gettin soma as payment from an Alpha. It was when the 2 Deltas started fighting and the Alpha threatening to stop giving soma that triggered the following events. Jon stood up and yelled at everyone that soma was a poison and that they need to stop taking it to save themselves. He hoped to help people by throwing the soma out the window which then caused the Deltas angry and try to hurt/kill Jon. The Alpha calls the police who calm everything down. Bernard and Helmholtz are sent to islands and Jon gets to stay.
    At the end of the book Jon kills himself. He tries to by throwing himself into a bush but only ends up getting more attention because of someone recording him. It caused him to become a joke. It was this that made him want to go into isolation. He was sad,angry, and just plain out didn't want anything to do with the world. He tried to help people but all they did was hurt him. They found Jon at a light house. His imaginations of Lenina drove him crazy into anger. He whipped himself because of his love for Lenina. He saw her among the crowd of people who found him and he chased and whipped her for his anger. He ended up hanging himself because of his depression like emotions. "Love isn't about lust, lust only makes things worse" -me.

Ignite talk

My big question is how can I become a famous or at least well known gaming Yotuber? I really like playing video games, and I thought about YouTube and started thinking about how I can become a YouTuber so that I can do what I love for a living. I have watched well known YouTubers like Pewdiepie, Jacksepticeye, Markiplier and others. Something that caught my attention is how consistant they were with uploading, they were enthusiastic, and caring for their YouTube community. Something that I connect to my question is one of our journal topics that asked something like why is it that some teachers are sought as better or why some are more prepared or something like that. I plan on continuing to watch more YouTube to see if there's something else I can notice about the channels and watch previous videos and see if I can find how they started.
