Perseverance

I have no had many goals in my recent years. Up until the last couple of mouths i have made goals for myself. My goals are to graduate high school, find a well paying job, and attend Orange Coast College. Right now i am currently going to school, with an intermediate job. In the very near future I am graduating from High School. Then, during the summer, i will find a well paying job so I can pay for college. During college i will keep that job and play basketball for college.  Eventually i wish to move on past OCC and attend UCI. Afterwards I wish to find an even better job, start a family, and begin my life.

During college i want to study sound engineering and musical development. I will play basketball for each of my years there. Afterwards I want to go to University of California Irvine. Doing the same as OCC, studying sound engineering and playing basketball.

After i graduate from school, I wish to find a job as an sound engineer or musical DJ. I want to find a small house or condo to rent, have a wife, and start a family with her. I am not sure on where i want to live.

Critical Film Review

The movie Reservoir Dogs by Quinton Tarantino is my favorite movie at the tine being. In the movie, you see several men (all criminals) come together by one man. Each of these men do not know each other. They were put together to do a heist on a jewelry store. Throughout the movie, we see the the back stories of each main character. The main characters are Mr. White, Mr. Pink, Mr. Orange, and Mr. Blonde. Each of there names are code names. During the middle of the movie, the heist goes bust. The police end up being there the whole time. One of the heist members is a cop. The main characters survive the police. The side characters are not so fortunate. Mr. Blue and Mr. Brown are missing or dead. The rest of the heist members join in there hide out to discuss what exactly happened. Some jewels were recovered and stashed by Mr. Pink. Throughout the rest of the movie, the characters discuss who the cop really is, and what they are going to do to get away.

This movie had a lot of different elements thrown into it. It is a perfect mixture of lightness, grimness, and some humor. The movie is a drama more than any other genre however. There are some parts of the movie that are very graphic. But this adds realism to the movie and adds suspense.

The characters from the movie each have a different background but all know the same man. Each man has an extremely interesting background. Each with a story to tell.

The music put within the movie is perfect. Each song may not fit the situation but it adds different feelings to the movie. For example, there is a scene where a man is tortured while an old Beatles song. The situation turned more dramatic because the character is show to be even more deranged than expected.

The movie Reservoir Dogs is a an amazing movie in each way intended. The movie is filled with drama and suspense. I highly recommend this movie to people of age.
