The how to video I watched was "How to Tie Your Shoes" overwell it was fairly well done, but I think there was a lot of junk that was not needed at the beginning. The could have just simply skipped all that and moved to the beginning, it would actually make it a lot shorter, and would get to the point, and what the audience is looking for faster. How ever it does show how to tie your shoes at a very good pace, and by simple steps.
The camera shots are not all that impressive, and I really dont think the music suits the video , howver it is a well done video, and you can easily learn how to tie your shoes.

Northrop Frye -- His beginning ~
"Literature is the world of the imagination — the place where anything goes that's imaginatively possible, but nothing really happens."— The Educated Imagination
"There are two halves to literary experience…imagination gives us both a better and a worse world than the one we usually live with, and demands that we keep looking steadily at them both."— The Educated Imagination
These were only a few quotes from our top elf, here at the North Pole, said Santa as he continued on about all his precious little elves. Northrop is so imaginative, and creative, I don't know what or how we would have came up with our whole North Pole/Santa Clause idea, nicely done again Northrop! We really owe it to you.
As Northrop continues to listen to Santa rave about his amazingness he just sits back and enjoys it. But then, right at that second he gets this wonderful idea, and stands to share " Fellow elves, Santa, I have just came up with an idea that I think everyone will enjoy", Santa just starts to glow as he's always loved Northrop's ideas... "How about we have a festival, a writing festival?" Santa gets more and more curious. "We all know how much I love to write, and I think I could influence a lot of people with my passion for writing, we could call it the 'Frye Festival' how does it sound Santa, everyone could participate ! Elves, you and Mrs.Clause, and the children all over the world, what do you say Santa !?"
It took some time for Santa to really think about this, and consider everything, but he realized how much fun it could be, and there could be prizes! Also how much of a good thing it would be for students, and children and everyone to get involved in... So, at that point Santa called Northrop into his office, and they discussed everything that they would need to do to get this show on the road. "Ho! Ho! Ho! I love your ideas, your such an amazing little elf Northrop", Santa exclaimed for about the hundredth time that day.
After a couple of months the 'Frye Festival' was all complete we had come up with a few great essay topics including texting, weather , and many others, or another option is to write about Northrop; a short story. I was so excited to give out the posters, and fill in everyone about this great event! Soon enough it would be here, and we could do it every year! It could be a tradition every year children from everywhere come together and listen to literature, and they can write stories and win! It's a great way to pull them in, to get them interested in reading and writing!
Soon enough Santa would be all over the world, and back again, so we had to finish the toys super fast! Then while we were suppose to have January off, after our hard work all year, we had to prepare for the 'Frye Festival'. It was going to be hard, not having our break this year but the Frye Festival was definitely going to be worth all of it. We were all working our very hardest to put this all together, and once we had the festival done and decorated, we had to focus on working on our writing. It was a little hard to get going, but we were almost there, and it was almost time.
It was finally time, time when we would all gather together with all of our pieces of work, the celebration together, and everyone was so excited. We were on our way to the Frye Festival. Northrop got out of his seat and went to the stage where he would do the welcome, and open the festival. After he sat down, there were a few guest speakers, and then it was time to get the show on the road; the first person went to the stage and began reading her story ... "Literature is the world of the imagination........"

How to creep ~ Justin Bieber on Twitter
Some people may think that creeping is the worst possible thing you could ever sit and do with your time, however I think it's actually quite fun and entertaining. Its even a good thing to do , if you can find out everything thats going on in Justin Biebers life & guaranteed be the end of this "how to" you'll be the perfect creep.
All you need for this how to, is a computer, and access to the internet.
I'm going to teach you , how to be the perfect creep of Justin Bieber.
Step One -- Go to the computer, get online, and go on twitter, and find "@justinbieber"
Step Two -- Once you get there, follow him, and creep all his tweets.
Step Three -- Creeping his tweets are quite simple. Go to the very bottom the there will be a button that says "more" keep clickin it , until you get far enough down , and you'd like to actually start creeping.
Step Four -- Begin reading (if you see a lot of "tweets" that have RT infront of them, this means that he is responding to fans, his comments are found after the equal sign)
Step Five -- Once you've read his tweets, you'll probably know lots, since he tweets a lot ! You'll be able to know where he is at all times, when his new songs will be released, also a lot of silly things he likes to tweet about. (Ex: one time, he got so excited for ellen, he ran over to his grandmother and almost tripped, because so excited about seeing the show that day :) )
Step Six -- After your finished creeping tweets you can check who he follows, if they're from Stratford Ontario, its most likely his real friends, from before he became famous. If you find any, creep them, because they often talk to Justin, and you can see what he's like in reality.
Step Seven -- If you find someone like "Chaz" (Justins best friend) you could then creep his profile because he has a lot of Justins other friends.
If you follow all these steps, its guarteed you will know just about everything Justin Bieber does in a daily basis, who his friends are, and what kind of fun things he does in a day.
