Homework 7


Personal Drive Analysis:

Let's call the person that I interviewed for this personal drive analysis, Jane. She is a female who is twenty-two years old and lives in Carbondale, Illinois. She is 5'8 and has brown hair with hazel eyes. She has one older brother and old older sister and was born in another state. She is beginning her fifth year in college to pursue a double major. In association to media she buys magazines often, typically gossip or fashion. She does not buy newspapers but often reads the local Daily Egyptian. She goes on the int
ernet all day on and off. It often distracts her from her school work. Also she does a lot of her shopping online and uses EBAY for bargains. She watches TV everyday and loves reality TV on mTV or VH1. She claims that they are addictive and cann
ot stop watching them even if she tried. She cannot afford to go to the movies often unless it is one she really wants to see. When it comes to music, Jane likes top 40, she says she likes pretty much anything. She is usually open to trying new things. In her free time she really likes to shop and go on walks. She also tries to work as much as she can for extra money. She is planning on graduating college next year with a degree in Biology and Genetics. After that she wants to have a c areer in the laboratory helping on criminal cases. She wants to be very successful and get married at a young age. She says that she hopes to marry her now current boyfriend, but nothing is certain. The things that appeal to her are very current trends. She likes to spend money that she does not have in order to keep up with other people to seek acceptance. I feel like she hopes that by wearing the latest clothes or having the coolest things that people will like her more. I think that she will buy what other people have and what she sees around her. I think that she has a lot of potential to be successful, but she has to stay focused and determined.

I like how you described how your person uses their money. It's definitely an important aspect to consider. Good job on your PDA!
