Evaluation & Feedback

In today's lesson, I have also received a variety of different feedbacks, concerning both my track and my blog. For my track, I played it and asked some questions, based on the song and got back some feedback and some ideas on how to improve. Then I got a feedback about my blog, how it should be, what's on it and what's missing. I got a feedback form Laden and Rheka in a piece of paper, and then, I added the things that they thought that are missing, on my self assessment sheet. After that the teacher gave me a feedback concerning my blog and I compared it with my thought and my peers' thoughts. After writing it down in my self assessment sheet all the work that I'm missing, I made a time schedule, based on when I'm going to do what and when is the final deadline (23/10) All this feedback, has help me consider what I'm missing form my blog and how much time I got left to do it.

Angel With a Shotgun - Front and Back Cover of The Disc (Draft Version)

The Cab - Angel With a Shotgun Lyrics

(I'm an angel with a shotgun, shotgun, shotgun,
An angel with a shotgun, shotgun, shotgun.)

Get out your guns, battle's begun.
Are you a saint or a sinner?
If love's a fight then I shall die
With my heart on a trigger.

They say before you start a war,
You better know what you're fighting for.
Well, baby, you are all that I adore.
If love is what you need, a soldier I will be.

I'm an angel with a shotgun,
Fighting 'til the war's won,
I don't care if heaven won't take me back.
I'll throw away my faith, babe, just to keep you safe.
Don't you know you're everything I have?
And I wanna live, not just survive tonight.

Sometimes to win, you've got to sin.
Don't mean I'm not a believer.
And major Tom will sing along.
Yeah, they still say I'm a dreamer.

They say before you start a war,
You better know what you're fighting for.
Well, baby, you are all that I adore.
If love is what you need, a soldier I will be.

I'm an angel with a shotgun,
Fighting 'til the war's won,
I don't care if heaven won't take me back.
I'll throw away my faith, babe, just to keep you safe.
Don't you know you're everything I have?
And I wanna live, not just survive tonight.

Oh, oh whoa whoa oh whoa

I'm an angel with a shotgun.
Fighting 'til the war's won.
I don't care if heaven won't take me back.

I'm an angel with a shotgun,
Fighting 'til the war's won,
I don't care if heaven won't take me back.
I'll throw away my faith, babe, just to keep you safe.
Don't you know you're everything I have?
(I'm an angel with a shotgun)
And I want to live, not just survive
(Live, not just survive)
And I'm gonna hide, hide, hide my wings tonight.

They say before you start a war,
You better know what you're fighting for.
Well, baby, you are all that I adore.

If love is what you need, a soldier I will be.
