Dear Jordan,       You will be taking a Photography class in your junior year of high school. It is a cool class but it can be hard to keep up with all of the assignments. In order to be successful in the class you must manage your time efficiently in order to insure that you get every assignment completed on time. Make sure to use your class time correctly and spend that time working on each of your projects to make them look the best that they can. When it comes to thinking of ideas for projects, make sure to always think of more than one idea. Mr. Klein always says that "You're first idea is never you're best one".        In regards to taking photos, make sure that you always take multiple shots from different angles and different lighting.

The author was trying to advocate women empowerment, showing that women are not subject to the authority of anyone else. The author was probably trying to evoke a feeling of power and support for the idea represented. In my opinion, she was successful in getting her point across to viewers.
