Effects of Advertising in Teens

     Advertising has a lot of affects on teen culture.  The biggest influence on teen culture is fashion for girls. All the fashion commercials and magazines use the ethos method of advertising. Celebrities like Miley Cyris, Britny spears, and Justin Bieber are using the all new robot dog. Then all the teens want to get the robot dog because a famous person uses it. 

     There is also how advertising effects music in teen culture. On TV channels like MTV can take an unknown band, advertise them all over and in a matter of weeks they are the biggest band in America. The reason why is because teens love anything on MTV. Even dumb things like Jersey Shore. 

     Next, there is the "cool" factor for teens. Mostly all teens want to be cool and get all the girls/guys. An example of this is the Axe commercials. In the commercial once the guy puts on Axe all the ladies are all over him. And this makes the teens buy their product. Then with girls is a beautiful model wear a type of perfume and the teens that buy the perfume think they will be like the model.

     Advertising is everywhere and we don't even notice. Teens are mostly on the internet so that is where all the advertisers put their ads. The advertisements are on big websites like YouTube  Facebook, and even Pandora Radio. Then the teens are eating up whatever they are advertising. 

NEW YEARS

When I reflect on the past year of 2012 I have learned a lot. The main thing I learned was how to play ice hockey. 2012 was the first year I started to play ice hockey. I first started on the in-house team called the Huskies, and then I played on the travel team the Jags.

          For my New Year’s resolution would like to:

\    Get better at hockey

\    Get stronger

\    Get on the ice hockey team next year

\    Become taller
