Pop Culture Blog Part 3

I suck at English. There is not a thing I like about it. But having a computer helps. For instance: you tell me to write this crazy paper that I know nothing about, I’ll just go online and Google it. Or some big word that should probably mean something to me but I have yet to learn, id pull up some Webster online and search it. But my all time favorite is the word that comes on it. I can write something then do like a spell check and grammar check on it and tada my paper already looks a lot better!!! But it’s not all about work either, I also like to go online to email or chat with friends and so on. I go online to my email accounts and check out all my mail and reply or even go straight to the facebook IM people that I know and talk to. Another awesome feature is the games. My cousin is 5 years old he can gets on a computer just to play games! When I was five I think I might have been lucky to even have a computer around me (then again I was kind of destructive). But you can go online to play games or you can do the games that come fully loaded on your computer (such as solitaire and free cell and so on). And the tabs on the side of your screen and super helpful! I have a clock and the date and the weather up on mine. I have notes to when I have something to remember but right now there are no notes up there. Basically the computer is amazing and is a true life saver!

Cell phones are the new thing these days. If you don’t have a cell phone more than likely you want one and if you do have a cell phone more than likely it is permanently attached to you in one way or another. I’ll be the first to admit it… I could not live without my cell phone! For instance, one morning I got up to head to class and I couldn’t find my cell phone. I was meeting a friend that morning to walk with her to class and I was actually late meeting her because I was looking for it. I never found it so knowing that I had to go I left without my cell phone. After class one of my friends wanted to go eat and I told her that after I found my phone I would. So she walks with me back to my dorm room and we both look for it for a LARGE amount of time. We then decide that it might be easier to call it and listen for it to go off (it was on vibrate mode so it was really quite in the room). Once we found it we headed to lunch. While in lunch I couldn’t help but to read the 5 text messages I had missed and checked my missed calls and who left me voicemails. Also with cell phones these days, you can personalize your phone! I mean if you wanted to you could get a cover for it or a Bluetooth. The covers show how different you are from everyone else who has the exact same phone as you and the Bluetooth simply keeps people on the go connected and still addicted to this little device. The other day I was walking through Wal-Mart and I saw a lady talking to herself. I thought “geez… she’s nuts!!!” then she turns around and hanging from her purse is her phone and in her ear is a dang Bluetooth!!! And the same thing goes for those people in the car that talk to the invisible person beside them. Yea, nine times out of ten they have a Bluetooth glued onto their ear. I can say that I have never and plan on never having a BluetoothJ.

I love music! I love how no matter your mood u can listen to it and somehow someway your mood can change and make your day even better. I listen to everything! My personal favorite is country. I was raised by my grandma to listen to country and that’s what I have always done. One of my all time favorite singers is Kenny Chesney. He is country but the lyrics to his song make you think of the beach when he sings. He is very tropical when it comes to singing his songs. I met this girl in high school and she became a little sister to me and she doesn’t like to share a lot about her grandpa. I met her grandpa a couple months into our friendship and that’s when she told me that her grandpa was the producer for Kenny Chesney! O I freaked out!!! I mean while I was around her I held it in cause I didn’t want to seem like an idiot. I mean she had grown up around this singer who I loved! And on top of that I didn’t want her to get the impression that I only wanted to be her friend because of who her grandfather was. So for a while, every summer we would go to the Kenny Chesney concert and thanks to her grandfather I would get in free. Kenny Chesney was the first concert I went to and that started a love for concerts. Concerts are full on adrenaline rushes!!! To me I have a rollercoaster ride at concerts. Like I’m really excited about this band that I am there to see but at the same time I’m super pumped about all the opening acts and other people playing as well. When any of the bands would go on stage my heart would race! I LOVE THAT FEELING! When they left the stage I hit the mode where I was like “are you being serious right now?!” and my hearts speed would slowly begin to drop. Those are just some freaking awesome times dealing with music that has happened to me.

Online Quizes

After class, I headed over to the library to get on the computer since I could not get internet access, and I took the quizzes online. No offense to anyone who wants to talk about how they feel but I do not really feel like sharing things about me that was said through a quiz. Yea, I learned some stuff i didn't know about me, but I also believe that if there is anything you would like to know you should just straight up ask me! Quizzes can only do so much then judge you on how you answered the small amount of questions it asked you. I feel that if you really care about getting to know my religious beliefs, personality, and/or political views you should just ask me. I'm not the type to lie or freak out on you for thinking or feeling different than I do. I'm not here to impress anyone, I'm just here to be me.

Memoirs

So, I sat down late last night to read the momoirs that were assigned, and honestly I was not a fan. They were uninteresting to me. Actually, I'm pretty sure I fell asleep while reading the second one. There were bits and pieces where I will admit, it was funny, but for the most part, they did not interest me whatsoever. The first one hit creeper mode and it made me feel like i was being a creeper for actually reading the story of someone stalkin someone else, but it also really made me think of how everyone else might feel when we talk about them or judge them without really getting to know them. It made me kinda do a quick check on my life. It also made me think about how people might see me. The second story we read really got awkward. Personally I do not smoke or dream of being with anyone in a well known band so to me it was like wow... really? Ha but that's just me. Bassically I was not a huge fan (sorry to all that were).

Writing About Writing

So the assignment was to write about my history of writing, and I have noticed that up until now I do not write unless I get completely bored or unless it is an assignment! My past with writing is nothing of great interest. I started writing in like Kindergarten, but if you really think about it just about everyone did. You started by learning all about your ABC's and from there your history of writing should have taken off. Mine took off, because I felt like I knew everything once I could spell and make sentences. I remember how I use to sit down and make up all these different stories from animals who could talk to trolls taking princesses away from huge beautiful castles. As I grew up and lost interest in those sorts of things, I felt myself slipping away from writing. Now I only write when I text, email, instant message, take notes, pass notes, or even just write papers that are required for grades. I text, email, and instant message ALL the time and everything else is very different. Other than texting, emailing, and instant messaging, I have no interest in writing. I can hold a conversation on the phone for hours at a time or even in person I could talk a while, but i can never hold good conversations while writing. So keeping up with this blog is going to be a beast, and honestly I do not see myself writing in this blog a lot unless I am told to do so as an assignment.
