Taking a Break

As I sit in the library studying for our new media final tomorrow, I needed to take a break. Right now, I am justifying this by telling myself this is better than stopping to go on Faceboook. This is at least a little bit productive. I'm also secretly hoping that if my teacher is reading this and feeling compassionate to the students who are on campus looking miserable, that she will possibly grade this because if I counted correctly, I'm one blog behind. If not, it was worth a try. As the semester unwinds, I feel very confident leaving this class, knowing that I learned a great deal. I'm just hoping that it is reflected in my final tomorrow, haha. But seriously, this course was one where throughout the semester I never asked myself why I was learning this, or when was I ever going to use this information, as I so often do in all of my other classes. This was the most real life class I have taken and I'm very glad I decided to do so. I'm also really proud of myself for what I was able to accomplish. If you had told me at the beginning of this course that I was going to be able to keep my own blog, and update pictures, and actively contribute to our own Wiki, and add and edit hyperlinks; I would have told you that you were seriously nutty. Well, my time limit on my break is up, so that is all.

Jersey Shore Show

On MTV there is a show called the Jersey Shore. It is about a group of random people that consider themselves hard core no joke "Guido's" The guys even discussed writing the guido handbooK in the first two hour episode. The show is helarious. Living at the Jersey shore during the summer, in Wildwood myself, I can completely relate to the type of rediculous behavior this show portrays. The outrageous enthusiastic guido personality is bizare to most, who constantly love to laugh at their attitude. If you ever see the you tube video "new haircut"?... that is the type of people that were brought to the Jersey shore to live together in an ideal house located at the wild and crazy Seaside Jersey shore. The Guido way of life consists of being an Italian and loving it, having a daily trip to the tanning salon or even having one in your house, a new haircut, serious hair gel, a rock hard bod which includes daily trips to the gym and SERIOUS FIST PUMPING and more. This show illustrates all of these qualities at the Jersey SHore and more so get tuned in and learn how to be a guido or just laugh at the rediculous behavior. Getting rediculously drunk and spending time at the Jersey Shore is a thrill that most people do not understand. The common stereotypical discription of New Jersey as the arm pit of America has a whole new meaning in this show. The Jersey shore is truely the most fun a person can have because of the rediculous outrageously wild people that the Jersey shore attracts. Its a carefree lifestyle that guarentees fun. so don't judge till you experience it yourself. Watch the show and then go visit THIS SUMMER thats my advice find some guidos if your interested? !!! LIVE IT LOVE IT !! YOU WON'T REGRET IT!... ITS AN EXPERIENCE THAT CANNOT BE FOUND ANYWHERE ELSE! SEE YOU THIS SUMMER!

Bad Girls Club

There is a show on oxygen network about girls who behave naughty. The TV show travels the United States looking for the most outrageous party animals they can find. They bring the top seven "bad girls" to LA and let them live for free and party and a nice house. I have witnessed girls in the episodes wake up and immediately chug a bottle of vodka or violently punch and throw things at eachother. The usual day for each of the girls in the episode is to wake up, do something intentially evil or kniving to one of this roommates, then excessively drink, and go home and fight about the earlier that day or about their drunk night. Sometimes physically, sometimes not.
It is kind of odd that the Oxygen network would air a show portraying women in that light. It is a very entertaining show, but it would fit more in an MTV channel lineup. The girls are constantly acting ridiculous, and getting in unneccasary fights, most of the time because they are drunk. On the other hand it could be comforting to girls to see other girls much more ridiculous than them out there. Therefore they could appreciate the humor in how the girls are acting. But also girls watching the show that are easiler influanced go see these girls having fun and want to try it out. There are different ways different girls could interprut the show, either way its good entertainment.

Bye, Bye, Tiger

I am writing this blog because I missed one earlier this semester, and it's sad to say that it may be an end of an era. The most ridiculous thing to me that the way he got caught cheating on his wife was his due to his tech inexperience. He apparantly left his mistress reading, according to US Weekly,

“Hey, it’s, uh, it’s Tiger. I need you to do me a huge favor. Um, can you please, uh, take your name off your phone. My wife went through my phone. And, uh, may be calling you. If you can, please take your name off that and, um, and what do you call it just have it as a number on the voice mail, just have it as your telephone number. That’s it, OK. You gotta do this for me. Huge. Quickly. All right. Bye.”

Like, come on, seriously?
