I'm like a broken recordI will remind you again and again ans again: DFTBA! DFTBA! DFTBA!
I will remind you often, so that you will remind yourself once you've left our class. DFTBA is an initialism coined by the Vlogbrothers, John and Hank Green, referencing a reminder written on a friend's arm: Don't Forget To Be Awesome. Through their YouTube channel and other online media, the Vlogbrothers have created a community dedicated to being "made of awesome" and decreasing what they call world suck. Among their many accomplishments, in 2007 the Vlogbrothers initiated the annual YouTube Project for Awesome, a weekend of YouTubers uploading videos promoting charities. We'll be taking a look at this project as a model of persuasive writing. Whether it be as a student, a family member, or a citizen of the world, keep asking yourself, "How will I be awesome today?" |
These folks are made of awesome |
