The Analysis of “smooch unlimited frozen yogurt”


I choose one of the advertisements that are showed in the gogirl! magazine to be analyzed. I am interested in analyzing this advertisement as it can attract my attention. It is about yogurt named “smooch unlimited frozen yogurt”. This advertisement really knows how to attract the audience by providing cute pictures and good persuasive language styles. I am encouraged to analyze the advertisement from its audiences, technical effects, and language styles.
            To know who the audiences of this advertisement are, I analyze the product first. In my opinion, the purpose of this advertisement is to inform people; there are places offer delicious yogurt. According to this advertisement, “smooch unlimited frozen yogurt” offers 8 frozen yogurt flavors with 60 toppings. Besides, people create the toppings by themselves. It is sold at Grand Indonesia, Central Park, and Pondok Indah Mall. Even though this advertisement is founded in woman magazine, I can consider that the target audiences are general people. It is because the product which is provided is yogurt. As I know, yogurt may be consumed by everyone.
            To analyze the technical effects of this advertisement, I take a look at the picture and the color. The picture in this advertisement represents the product. For instance, it uses the pictures 11 cups yogurt with eye-catching toppings at the top. Moreover, there are cute icons with different expressions and motions. Every icon seems to be cute. For the color, “smooch unlimited frozen yogurt” uses light color so that the audiences can easily read. These technical effects bring cheer for everyone who is seeing the advertisement. Also, in my opinion, it makes the audience want to buy and taste the yogurt.
            “smooch unlimited frozen yogurt”  advertisement uses some language styles. First, it has a slogan “Your creation is Unlimited”. It shows that the advertisement uses a short, simple and hyperbole sentence.  The slogan represents the name of yogurt. Both slogan and advertisement’s name use “unlimited” word. Besides, it uses imperative language. It is proved by a sentence that is found, such as “Come visit us, be creative!”. The word “come” and “be creative” indicates that it is imperatives. On the other hand, there is another slogan “INDULGING EVERYONE WITH A HEALTHY TREAT”. This slogan uses hyperbola, simple, and adjective words. It also seems to be a big lie.   Nevertheless, it successfully draws my attention.
            To sum up, I think, the creator succeed to promote their product by advertising it in gogirl! magazine. Overall, this “smooch unlimited frozen yogurt” is very attractive and easy to be read. Consequently, I catch the meaning of this advertisement easily.

Smoke Detector Beeping


Smoke Detector Beeping
Is your smoke detector beeping without any signs of smoke? Well, read the following article and get to know more about the reasons and solution behind the problem of smoke detector beeping.
Smoke Detector Beeping
As its name suggests, a smoke detector is a device used to sense signs of smoke in a building and an important constituent of a home security system. It issues an audible and visual alarm in case it detects smoke, which is a probable indicator of fire. A smoke detector is typically housed in a circular plastic enclosure, which works by ionization or by optical detection. Most home smoke detectors are powered by a single disposable battery or a hard wire circuit. Many people complain about their smoke detector beeping without any apparent cause, which is really a bothersome thing. It is agreed that the smoke detectors are designed to beep or chirp in a loud volume for safety purposes; but this loud beeping actually becomes the greatest nuisance when they start beeping for no serious reason. More on smoke detectors and how they work.

Causes of Smoke Detector Beeping

Smoke Detector Beeping Cause #1
Why is my smoke detector beeping? This is a question that most people search an answer to because of the headache that it can be. Well, there are a few really insignificant reasons behind smoke detector beeping. If you hear beeping from a smoke detector without cause, make sure that it has got nothing to do with the smoke detector battery! Smoke detector beeping for no reason can simply be a sign of a worn out battery. Replace the battery with a 9 volt smoke detector battery as an effective measure to stop the smoke detector from beeping.

Smoke Detector Beeping Cause #2
If you notice the smoke detector beeping without having a problem with the batteries, then its underlying cause must be related to the alarm of the smoke detector. If you find the smoke detector beeping even after battery replacement, just press the test button on the smoke detector, in order to reset the alarm. It will clear the memory of the failing battery and resolve the problem of smoke detector beeping.

Smoke Detector Beeping Cause #3
Electric smoke detector beeping without any evident reason can be due to dust or insects that get trapped inside the smoke detector. If you find that the electric smoke detector is beeping, then it is the time to clean your smoke detector. Use a vacuum attachment; the one which is used for cleaning computer keyboards and clean your smoke sensor. Make it a point to clean the fire alarm system twice a year, to avoid any issues like beeping without reason.

Smoke Detector Beeping Cause #4
Another reason for electric smoke detector beeping, can be failure of the emergency battery backup, which happens in case of a power failure. If the battery backup of the electric smoke detector is zero, then it can start beeping for no reason. In such cases, make sure you replace the battery with an appropriate battery in order to solve the problem of electric smoke detector beeping.

Smoke Detector Beeping Causes #5
Many people complain about smoke detector beeping every 30 seconds, which is actually the sign of a healthy battery supply to the smoke detector device. In case you notice that the smoke detector is beeping at a particular time of the day or at regular intervals, then try to alter the temperature levels of your house. Sometimes, the smoke detector starts beeping in case it senses temperatures that are too hot or too cold.

A WIFE MAY WORK WHETHER SHE HAVE CHILDREN OR NOT


Now, I am 20 years old. Even though I am still young, I have to think about my future family. In fact, not only do I think about marriage and future family, but also my friends think about that. We also share our dream together. We are as women usually talk about what choice that we choose after having children, such as we are still working or not when we have had children. Mother with young children who work has some pros and cons. Several friends say that they will not work after having children. There are some reasons why a wife should not work: having heavy household, having less time with her husband and children, and earning money by her husband. However, I have my point of view about this case and I could not agree with them.
My friends told that to be a house wife is not as easy as people think. A good household should look after her children, serve her husband, and keep house. Maybe they are true, but I think I can find some solution for this case. I can hire a maid to help me keep my house. It means that I had helped person by employing her in my house. In addition, sometimes if I always stay at home for waiting my children and husband back home by doing nothing; it can be boring. Working at home or outside will make me enjoy because I have activities to do besides keeping my house.
Having less time with her husband and children is one of reasons why my friends want to be a housewife after marrying someone. In their opinion, working will spend time with their family. It is because each member of family has their own activities. Therefore, they only meet each other at night when they are already tire. Nevertheless, it is not totally right. In my opinion, they are still having time together. For instance, they can enjoy the weekend together. They can go holiday when they have long holiday. Besides, a wife who works part time can back home earlier than her husband. Consequently, she can cook for dinner with her family. On the other hand, I change my job into some jobs that can do in my house if I am afraid that my job can make me stay away from my family.
My friends said that a husband can earn money for his family living cost. Hence, his wife may not allow to work, just doing household. Admittedly, a husband should pay his children’s school fee, daily needs expenses, and cost of living, but it is not enough. I have to think about my parents and my private needs. For example, when I want to give my parents money or something, I want to go shopping, or pamper myself, such as go to saloon, I do not need to ask my husband to give me money. I can use my own money. Moreover, it is too lamentable if I cannot apply my diploma in working. Whereas, the purpose I take higher education is to get better job. On the other hand, I can help my husband financial, so I can save money more.
          To sum up, in my opinion that it does not matter a wife works whether she have had children or not. It is because I can get more advantages by working outside or home. However, I have to remind that I am still a wife of my husband and mother for my children. Despite the fact that I work for helping my family financial, I may not forget my job as a wife and mother. I should obey the rules. Of course, I must look after my children and monitor their growth. Hence, I have to manage my time between job and family.

Fashion ALERT!

  

Do not be a fashion victim. The trends are there for you to follow. Only if they suit you. Do not wear what everyone else is wearing.
This quote has an important message for those who have a big passion in fashion. It says that they do not have to wear anything which does not look good for them. What they have to do is just to be creative and original. Do not follow any new style which is not appropriate to you. Mix and match, wear what makes you confident, and be yourself are the main keys to become fashionable.
