Item 3:Song
Stay the same
Joey Mcintyre - www.nhaccuatui.com/nghe?M=sUUXKuVkCj
Don't you ever wish
You were someone else
You were meant to be
The way you are exactly
Don't you ever say
You don't like the way you are
When you learn to love yourself
You're better off by far
And I hope you always stay the same
'Cause there's nothing 'bout you I would change
I think that you could be
Whatever you wanted to be
If you could realize
All the dreams you have inside
Don't be afraid
If you got something to say
Just open up your heart
And let it show you the way
Believe in yourself
Reach down inside
The love you find will set you free
Believe in yourself
You will come alive
Have faith in what you do
You'll make it through

Oh
,
Don't change!

  1. You did a good job.Examples that were given are somewhat various:a song, a picture and a poem. I really like the second item because its message is reality. However, in the second item, personalization is not rhetorical device.
