'Convincing my Parents for a party'

Choose a topic to convince your parents of and write a very short speech that can be delivered in 1 min. Write 3 versions of the speech using each mode of persuasion.
This year I would really allowed to have a big party that I might be able to split with one of my friends. But the problem is I had a party last year and my parents won't let me have another this year.
Pathos: If I have a party then I believe that my popularity will go up and people at my school have said that if I don't have this party then it will be really uncool. Mum Dad if you want to make my life miserable at school then sure don't let me have this party.
Logos: I have been doing the research for the drinks, food and decorations for the party and I would be able to pay for almost half of it. Considering that the money will be halved by the other person (my friend) then technically you will only be paying for 1/4 of the party which I think is a pretty good deal! You will be paying for no where near what you thought you would be doing!
Ethos: A kid at my school named Louis Longhi was nowhere near as popular as he is to this day. But after his legendary and awesome party he is now one of the most popular kids in our year and gets along with everyone and everyone gets along with him as his party was so good!
This is why I believe that I should have another party this year. It will not only make me more popular in an area I spend everyday at but it will also boost my self esteem.
Thank you
