Fausto’s aspiration to become a guitar player is motivated by the Los Lobos group, whose shows are shown on television. After watching the music show, Fausto is convinced that his future career is to play guitar, and he illustrates this using sight imagery. Fausto says, “The moment Fausto saw the group, Los Lobos, on 'American Bandstand,' he knew exactly what he wanted to do with his life-play guitar. His eyes grew large with excitement as Los Lobos ground out a song while teenagers bounced off each other to the crowded dance floor."

Warm bread smells filled the air, and music full of soft tinkling floated in from another room.”
