Last Post!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

The first semester I really liked how we had to read articles and take quizzes on them every week.  I felt like that was much better than having to take huge tests.  The articles were for the most part interesting to me, I didn't feel like I was doing it because I had to.  I felt like I was doing it because I enjoyed it, and it was an easy grade if you actually read the articles.
Then we hit the second semester and I found out I would be creating my own blog and maintaining it throughout the rest of the school year.  I was really mad about the fact we had to do this instead of taking our quizzes I was getting used to.  This also made me mad because I'm not very good with computers and everything that has to do with them.  I don't have a facebook, Ive never copied a link, or even sent many emails.  But when I started to find articles that I was interested in I really enjoyed creating my own blog.  I felt like I made it pretty personal by some of the articles I tried posting, just stuff that intrests me. 
When I heard about the tv article I had mixed emotions.  First I thought it was going to be pretty fun and easy, then I got the rubric and saw how many points everything was worth and it kind of scared me.  I enjoyed having to watch the tv shows itself but coming up with the thesis was difficult for me.  I think that the presentations we are doing now and a lot better than the ones you had planned.  I didn't feel as worried when you said how the new presentations were going to be.  Once I had my paper typed I felt proud of myself for completing the task.  I felt like I brought up many good points in my paper, and my thesis was backed up very well.  Overall I really enjoyed the class and everyone in it made it very fun.

Very sad but hopeful article

I think this article is a great way to end my mass media career as a blogger.  I feel touched by this one.

This was the best thing Barry Bonds has done in a long time.  And the fact that he didn't want the media to know about his heroic deed makes me think he is a great person deep down inside.  It's terrible how two men can beat another man up so bad outside of a baseball field, reading this kinda made me sick.  I hope to god this single father can be brought back to health so he can see, and be with his children when they are ready to go to college with the money Barry Bonds donated to them.  After all Bond's hype about steriods he really made a great step towards people liking him again by giving this single fathers kids full scholarships for when they are ready to go to college.  It's also great to see another players and teams form the MLB donate money to this family.  Professional baseball is suppose to be a sport where the whole family can go and have a great time together and relax and not worry about showing children violence.  But how can you take kids to a game and have them see a man almost get beaten to death?  That definitely needs to be fixed.  

Hangover part 2

This is a great article on the new movie Hangover part 2

The first Hangover is one of my favorite movies by far.  The first time I saw it I fell in love with it and wanted to watch it again and again.  I can just imagine how funny the second one is going to be because of how great the first one was.  All four of the main actors are very funny people, and they will definitely be displaying there skills in the second one. 
I think the second one being in Bangkok will make it even better because of the atmosphere being different from the states.  The cast is so crazy I think they will take advantage of all of the different things in Bangkok. 
I think its great that the actors are taking time to really come up with the best lines and parts for the movie.  They know how good the first one was so they don't want to dissapoint people who go watch the second one.

Episode 4

"Cabs Are Here"   Season 3 episode 7   air date 2/10/2011

In this episode Ronnie and Sammi's relationship is still going up and down but it comes to an end atleast for a decent period of time.  Ronnie takes all of Sammi's clothes out of the closet and throws them everywhere in the room even outside on the balcony.  By the end of the episode Sammi is getting ready to go back home to get herself together and away from the fighting with her and Ron. 

I don't understand how two couple can argue so much and still want to be together?  They have one good hour of being happy to 23 hours of fighting and arguing.  A lot of their fighting starts at the club or when they get home from drinking so everything they say they take back in the morning and tell eachother well I was drunk.  What Ron does in this episode should have breaken them up for good though.  He took all of her clothes and threw them outside then tried throwing her bed outside!  I'm not sure if it was roid rage or what but how can she want to still be with him?  They really need to split up for good.  I think their relationship brings the show down a little bit and it would be a lot better if they were both single. 

Episode 3

"Kissing Cousins"  Air date 2/24/2011 season 3

In this episode the roommates are having fun pranking eachother.  The Situation pranks Deena and Snookie by sending them to New York city on a surprise visit.  Also the Situation gets pranked when the other guys leave him behind because he is taking too long to get ready.  Whats more important is Snookie gets caught hooking up with two guys who she thought had no relation but infact they were cousins.  Also Pauly D and the Situation skip out on work and blow money on the boardwalk trying to win a gas powered mini bike. 

This episode is a great example of how dirty snookie is.  On previous episodes she meets a guy who thinks she is great.  She sleeps with him then doesn't talk to him.  She then meets another guy, sleeps with him and kicks him out the next morning.  That morning she calls the first guy again because he was hotter.   She ends up calling him twenty times to finally realize these two guys are cousins!  What she does here disgusts me.  Almost every episode she yells at the guys for bringing home nasty girls when meanwhile she does the same thing as those nasty girls!
Who do you know that works for minimum wage pay checks that spends hundreds of dollars on boardwalk games?  exactly no one.  I don't understand why they even make them work at the ShoreStore when they are loaded off the show.  Maybe it is just something else for them to film besides going to the gym or tanning.  These people are making millions of dollars for looking good and partying.

CSI gets the boot out of Thursday night slot on CBS

What do you think of this????????????????????????????

CBS announced they will be moving CSI out of its normal spot on Thursday nights for the new drama "Persons of Intrest".  Even though I am a huge CSI fan I think this is a smart move for CBS.  As stated in the article CSI is definitely showing there age and has been getting record low ratings this season.  I feel CSI is  a show where you go to on Demand for it anymore.  Also this is giving CBS a little change up.  They are keeping the other time slot shows at 830 and 10.    Hopefully this show will generate a spark for CBS and boost up their ratings as planned.

Episode 2

"Where's the Beach?"  Season 3 episode 3   aired date: January 17, 2011

In this episode Sam finally makes up with JWoww, Deena, and Snookie.  Also Snookie gets completely wasted in the middle of the afternoon, and is so drunk she cannot find the beach while she is walking on the boardwalk right beside it.  She ends up getting arrested for public intoxication infront of hundreds of people who are watching all along the boardwalk.  JWoww calls Snookies dad and he is very disapointed.  Once they get Snookie out of jail she claims she isn't going to drink anymore and she is only going to worry about finding a nice guy.  Also in this episode JWoww runs into her old boyfriend Rogger and they start to talk because she just broke up with her boyfriend Tom. 

Snookie makes herself look like a complete fool in this episode.  I think its pretty sad that she could get this drunk in the afternoon, then parade around the boardwalk making rude comments to random people.   She was very disrespectful to the police who arrested her.  She acted like she was some superstar and she really isn't.  What is her amazing talent?  Shes pretty good at sleeping with guys because she sleeps with a different one every night.  Then she says she wants to find the right guy?  In later episodes she says that she just wants to get it in and he will do!  She took a week off then continued to get drunk every night after she was arrested.  Im glad Sam made up with the other girls because her and Ronnie were holding eachother back from sitting by themselves not doing anything exciting.  I like Ronnie better when he was getting into fights and hitting on every girl in the club.
