What a waste of time

When I first sat down to do the un-tv homework I thought it was really interesting all the edits and cuts that go for only 10 minutes. I never realized how many there really are i didnt pay attention to the techincal effects, i just watched. but when it came time for me to sit there and stare at the tv for thirty minutes which i only did for about 15 i thought what a complete waste of time, almost as i felt in the nothing assignment we did. But since i had so much time and after watching someone else watch tv i never realized how much time i spent literally doing nothing but watching something... but why? its not like anything teenagers watch does really relate to their own lives. because of this i'm not going to stop watching tv! but i might think twice before i sit done and nothing gets done... not homework, not cleaning my room, or even hanging out with friends.

Beers and Weers?

Geeks and Freaks is such a great show I'm really sad that they don't play anymore because if they did i would totally watch! but relating this past episode to sociology with agents of socialization Lindsey and Sam both have out grown their influence of their parents, where they are influenced more by peer groups, friends, and school. Lindsey is torn between who she really wants to be friends with because they are starting to rip her apart. i can relate to this episode because i don't spend as much time with my family anymore, most of my time is spent at school or at work not at home, and the people i'm already all day i would say influence me most. but i wonder if we ever get to an age where we are no longer being influenced at all...

were tuesday people...

Watching Tuesdays with Morie made me really sad but at the same time made me realize a lot of things I never even thought about until that movie. I thought at first it was kinda weird a movie was making me feel that way until the end and realized it was based on a true story. In the movie when Morie mention asking the bird on his shoulder if today was the day he was going to die, and if that moment if he was to die if he would be happy with his life. I find myself thinking about that once a day. If I'm really happy and if there is a day that goes by where I'm not I fill it with a lot excitement! I'm so glad Sal played that movie for us! and i really am looking forward to the next movie! or maybe even watching the girl who thought she was a wolf! lol

My Values

Its so interesting that American's differ so much from other countries when it comes to values! There is such a great visible difference between the US and other countries such as Germany but when it comes to Stevenson it is thought we all have the same values... I sort of disagree I think that are families are all different, we might have the same background or not but or families are all different and raised maybe similar but differently causing are values to all differ but when we come to school we interact with are peers and friends and some of their values are placed upon us. Causing Stevenson student to conduct this chain of grasping its students one by one to have these values. but why are we all so alike? is it maybe really like stevenson as other schools just not noticed as much?
