Adele Parks- Tell me Something

While I was reading today I could picture the main character Elizabeth setting life's goals such as, to find an Italian man, marry him, move to Italy and have lots of dark-haired bambini. I can’t connect with any character at this point. I can’t understand whether her parents adopted Elizabeth or if she’s their actual child, it’s not clear. Something that I’ve done that is similar to the character is "fall in love". The plot is very realistic. I wouldn’t like to have any character as a friend because i have a different personality. The part that I’ve read today fits together with other books that have to do with love stories. In the next chapter I believe Elizabeth is going to go all around Italy. I wouldn’t want to jump in the story and change something, it’s only the beginning anyway. I was able to visualize Elizabeth watching hot Italian guys walking around the best because that’s all she keeps talking about. Sometimes when my friends and I go down town we might see a guy that we find very good looking and pick at him, and that’s what Elizabeth does.

3 Doors Down

3 Doors Down

The 3 Doors Down is an American rock band, and was formed in 1996, by drummer vocalist Brad Arnold, guitarist Matt Roberts and bassist Todd Harrell. The three were friends who had grown up together, and shared a common interest in rock music. The band got its name when the three men were walking around the town, and they saw a building where some letters had fallen off, and it read as “Doors Down”. Since at the time they consisted of three people, they added the "3" to create "3 Doors Down." The band began playing around the city, where at some point, few years later, Todd Harrell asked guitarist Chris Henderson to join the band in order to make the sound more full.

They’re first album, "The Better Life" was released on February 2 , 2000, and went on to become the 11th best-selling album of that year, selling over 3 million copies. They’re second album, "Away from the Sun", Josh Freese was hired to record drums and was realised November 12, 2002 and got two platinum’s and one gold. They’re third album, "Seventeen Days" was realised February 8, 2005 and has since been certified platinum. And they’re fourth album, "3 Doors Down" was realised on May 20, 2008,selling 154,000 copies in its first week.

My favourite song is called “Here Without you” and I like it because I find it very emotional. I think that the video is really good. The song is basically, about being away from someone and missing them. And it's not about how long you've gone, it's about the loneliness that comes with missing someone. And last, I chose this band, because its my favourite one. I love all their songs because there’s always something about them that makes me like them so much. Its not really catchy, or anything but the lyrics are just amazing. And I just LOVE listening to this type of music, I just love it! This song was realises in 2003,from the album “Away from the Sun".
