So.
I don't find advertising particularly annoying. I find commercials annoying when I'm watching a show on hulu or viki and it suddenly cuts to commercial with no warning. But commercials aren't limited to television or online streaming. 

Bilboards are clever. (Most of the time) 
The posters hanging on the wall are cute. (Sometimes) 
That little half inch drop-down ad on the top of my mobile screen caught my attention. (But, no, I would not like to try that app.)

Commercials, and other advertising outlets, are fun when they're done right. 

I even advertise, in a way, the things I love, with the amount of graphic tees I own that express what I'm into, like shows or games. I am a walking advertisement. I even promote SJSU with my (cute) sweater. 

So, uh....no, I actually have no beef with advertisements. And as a Graphic Design major, I think taking this class will only help me down the line. 

What do I expect from this class?
I expect advertising to get sexy
