Aha Moments!

There was so much going non in that classroom of fun. In the book a lot of things were very interesting. The different looks on movies, women in the media and so much more, they taught me a lot and they were never boring to read. Another aha moment that I liked was the tables we had, all the classmates were all friendly and we all had our little table of fun and laughter. The main thing that stuck out were the blogs. because I never had a blog site of my own, it was a cool experience writing topics and how we felt. there was never a right or wrong answer because they were always your very own opinions. I enjoyed writing them, and I believe I will do it a lot more often thanks to this Aha Moment!

Propaganda Techniques.

GOP & DEM.
These advertisements show political views and relating it to the advertisement of Mac & PC, but instead, it is . it shows the exaggeration of patriotism of two sides promoting their ideologies. It also shows the propaganda technique of the "common man" because this ad is trying to convince that the propagandist reflects the common being.

Research Topic

My media research topic is Violence in video games and how these affects not just the video gamers but the people around them as well. Finding the aggressive behavior in video games and showing what it causes to children, teens and also adults.

Internet.

Searching "social networking websites" On Wikipedia, it showed that there were 150 social networking sites around the world. I've heard of some of the sites, like Twitter, Myspace, Facebook, and Tumblr. The list has numerous sites, and I can't think of any that aren''t on this list. One of the sites I have never heard of is "Disaboom" which happens to be a social networking site that are for disabled people. It is use to improve people with disabilities live more of a normal life. To use a social networking site is pretty simple, its a place to post things that you are either currently doing, or things that catch your interests. The main site that I use often would be Twitter. Twitter is a place to post what you are currently doing. There has been an incident where I posted a "tweet" that I was going to a party, when I had told my other friends I was too sick to go out that night. Those friends found out and told me how they felt. Now I know to just tell them the truth or know my plans for the week ahead of time.

Movie.

My most favorite 2009 movie would probably have to be "All About Steve" I thought it was a funny movie and just love Sandra Bullock. I love comedies and this would definatley be one of my top choices.







I love a whole bunch of movies, but I think my most favorite of all time would probably have to be "Romy & Michelle" It is very comical and I love the actors in this movie. To some it might not be funny but to me I adore this movie.
