Just playing the game....

The game was pretty fun but it was hard because the supplies we had were hard to transport the water and the salt. somehow our water got tainted with salt and it looked really dirty but at least we got most of the water and salt in the cups. some people were messing everybody up, it was funny but it made it even harder to get our product across the class room. it took forever to get the water to the other cup because we basically only had a straw, a spoon and a paper towel that was leaking water but somehow we managed to get both products across the class room in some what of a safe manner.

My new Team

I think we chose each other because we can all do equal work. i dont think that only one person will be left to do all the work all the time. we all make good grades in most of our classes, i have known cody since elementary school when we both went to cedar brook. i just found out that we used to hate each other for some reason that i cant remember but now were cool and we both cant really remember much about elementary school anyway.

OUR 1ST PROJECT

If you looked at our project, it would probably make you hungry, well thats if you like mexican food. We decide to do our project on chuy's Tex Mex restaurant because we were thinking about what are favorite foods were and we all said Mexican, and we decide to pick Chuy's because that place probably has had the best Tex Mex we have ever tasted. On the poster, we had the name of the restaurant, the map of where it is located, our prices which was all entrees are under 10 dollars, and we had a few of our delicious dishes on there and that is whats going to make you hungry.

ITS ALL ME....

ok..im going to tell you about me. the main type of food I love to eat is Mexican food and Italian food mostly because my family is Italian. I like to listen to rap music the most, my favorite artist is Z-ro, i put a sound system in my car because i love loud music and the main thing i like to do in my car is ride with the windows down and blast the music. I watch family guy basically whenever it comes on tv because it is so freaking funny mainly because its stupid. My favorite charactor on Family Guy is the baby stewie because he is super evil and wants to take over the world.
My favorite subject in school would have to be English because i am good at writing whenever i have somthing that i care about and want to write about it. I excel best in my science class because it is easy for me and i love the teacher. My strengths in school is visual learning, what i mean is that i can see the teacher teach somthing on the board and i can learn it, but if its on paper, its hard. Another one of my weaknesses is that i can only do good on the test about 50% of the time, the rest of the time i fail horribly for some reason. I dont study for test, maybe thats the reason i dont pass a lot of them, but i think if the teacher is teaching right then you shouldn't have to study.
The thing i would want to learn most in this class is how to advertise, because if i want to start my own business someday then i would wnat to know how to advertise it.
I think work should be devided equally in our group because it would make me feel bad for the person who does all the work or i would get mad if I realized i was doing all the work.
I would make a good team member because i dont like to fail at anything i do, i am creative most of the time depending on what day it is. another reason is that i can get along with almost anybody.

I liked the video, the food looked good. i liked the way the brothers started the restaurant by combining what they love and good food. it was a good idea to give food away at major sporting events that way everybody would know who they are and how good their food is. if they keep marketing like they are doing now, they might be able to have hundreds of restaurants all over the great surf spots.

Define marketing!
some of marketing is advertising but it can also mean spreading your ideas anyway you want to.
Define marketing mix!
its how the four marketing elements are blended together--product, distribution, price, and promotion.
Describe how Wahoo's blends the 4P's of the marketing mix!
well, they have the fish tacos. they have a place to make them and sell them and they hand the tacos out at sporting events. they are affordable and have a lot of food. they are spreading rapidly.

WHO AM I ?

ok, my name is Sean Barnes and i am currently a student at spring woods high school. I was born, raised and still living in Houston Texas. I try to represent Houston in any way that i can even though i were hollister california shirts but i try to make it even by wearing houston hats and other stuff like that. I drive a 2003 mitsubishi galant that my brother gave to me last summer when he got his Tahoe. well, he didnt really GIVE it to me, he just switched the billing address so that i would make the payments. The only bad thing about having a car is that everybody wants a ride, the only thing they have to do is give me gas money. A few of my friends have vehicles to so we all park in the same place in the school parking lot and hang out there after school until we find something to do. I love to go out on the weekends, no matter who im with i just have to get out of the house on the weekend because i feel like i am missing something. i love loud music so i decided to put a system in my car. a lot of times i like to roll down the windows and turn up the bass on my subs and just blast it as loud as i want i dont care what other people think. well thats all i think i am aloud to talk about because everything has to be, "good for school".

what i expect to learn.

I want to learn how to use the computers better at this school because they annoy the crap out of me because they never do what i want them to do. This is my first blog i have ever made in my life so i dont really know what im doing. I guess what i hope to learn in this class is obviously sports marketing. i want to learn how to advertise my favorite teams, of course my favorite sports teams are all from Houston where i was born and raised and i am still here. I would like to make advertisments for the Astros baseball team, the Rockets basketball team, and the football team, the Texans. well, i dont have much else to say about this class other than i hope its better than any other of my computer classes i have had over the years.......
