November 6 2009

Today in class we had to go to the writing lab and type up and example of what MLA format style looks like. In doing so in this process we learned how to format our papers in the way the teacher requires us to do so. Well what I learned to day was a refresh mark of what I had to do in high school in that BCIS class ha even though I pretty much had forgotten about all of that it was not too bad. The experience I took out of that class time was that now I know what would be to write down for our next essay on the MySpace and Facebook compare or contrast. Also and the reminder to go back and re read what was written down and look for any mistakes that might have been made to revise in other words. Oh yes can not forget about the contractions out there those are not appropriate for the paper we must turn in unless someone out there is looking for a low grade. Over all the experience today in class was a good one towards the essay that we have to do now I know more or less how to really format it and also now I have an idea of how to start and end my paper.

Today in class it was group three and fours turn to present there articles over on facebook and MySpace and how they talk about other person’s mishaps. These two big topics have been around in our daily course in class for a few weeks now even to the point where we have to write a paper about them. Well in the articles that we went over where about how MySpace and facebook are a big influence in people lives who actually use it. Out there in these websites there are applications and groups that actually can get money in to jobs like the groups on MySpace for lawyers to get a client on divorce and use it to find someone who are in the process of getting one or even when it comes down to which or the parents will have to custody of the children will now a days they are even looking through their MySpace pictures to see how is lying or not about who can be a better guardian for them what I mean about that is that they can go through varies questions and lie but if you post something on there that can hurt your chances of what you do not want people to know well a friend can easily look through your page and find some other things about you.
And other article that was talked about had to do with varies professor at colleges and university’s about how they have a facebook and how they find that this website is actually very time consuming and others how do own on usually just get on and off to check up on there things.
Well another article of one from my group and it talked about how a professor was nervous on what his students thought about him or something like that well what he would do is he would friend his student on there so he can see how they really are try to get an idea on how to talk to them and approach them while he is standing up there trying to teach them something new.
My whole outtake on this articles are that be careful what you do on these sites do not lie about anything because sooner or later you can get caught up in it and when you least expect everything you had planed out for yourself will back fire on you and end up with nothing left.

Alright well what went on today in my English class was that we had to sit through this video that lasted the whole class period and then some, well what this lady was speaking about was about MySpace and face book and how they are affecting everyone’s lives now a days and how it use to be when there was not no internet and cell phones basically how It use to be with out all the high tech technology that there is now.
Well this ladie who went through the video with us was a speaker for some place which I do not know of but I am pretty sure she was a speaker for some where since she had a whole presentation ready and slides to go with the topics she was talking about.
Well the handheld learning conference was what went on and what happened through this whole clip was that she talked for about almost and hour about how MySpace, face book, Bebo and other sites out there have changed how people have an outlook on the outside life of outside your house and doing outside activities.
Also what was mentioned in this presentation was that this man did a study on different generation of birds and he compared them to people in each generation and how the birds from now are limited on where they can speared out there wings and fly around other then to the birds from years back they could fly around and about with out basically a care in the world because they had more space were more freely in there environment and that should tell you something about how things are now and how parents either shelled there young’s or how they just do not want to go outside and do something other then being in doors.
In my opinion this is pretty much dumb how are you going to tell your kids no you can not go outside cause they are paranoid well in the first place teach your kids to have some common sense in to know what is wrong from right and when they get stuck in a predicament to know how to get themselves out with out causing a bigger one I mean no one out there is really that dumb to make a problem bigger without knowing in the first place what would happen if they did so.

Well so today in my class we went through the process of what we are excepted from in our next essay over MySpace and face book on comparison or contrast basically it went over how to focus on what we need for it.
Well the thing that is very helpful with it is that it tells us exactly what the comparison or contrast essay needs to be up to its fullest potential.
What I got out of this experience in class was that it gave me an idea of what is what I want to write about and how its going down on the paper. Another thing we did in class was made a list of what was the same or the difference in between the two topics but since they are to different website that offer almost the same thing it will be quite a challenge on diffracting them. But what I am planning on doing is probably compare on what they have in common one is just better then the other in my opinion but then again its my choice against anyone else’s and no one can really say what I can and can not dislike about something.

Ay! How You Doing there? Mmm, Hmm! Ha well since this is a free write and I can write just about anything I want hmm huh ah I do not know where to start with this I have some much running through my mind as of right now and I got to find a way to get it all out in the this blog hmm where to start so much to say in so little space for this blog and well I think I just about blow up about at least maybe almost hundred words maybe some more or less.
So let me tell you a little about myself I guess that will work and if dose not will I really do not give a hoot about what the reader thinks right now about this ha nah I am just kidding I really do not mean that all mean but that’s what I am thinking.
Any who so I am taking this English class as a part of the basic course I have to take and I really do like the teacher I have right now she is pretty cool with it what I mean with that is that she knows how to get through use and we get done what we need to in that class with out having to struggle in there because she makes it easy for use to learn what we need to learn in that course and some more other things that come with it too.
Ha what did you think I was going to type up so you can see my name how I look like and the way I am ah ha yeah right I’m not about to tell you all about me up in these blog yeah right I’m not trying to put my self out there we just talked about this up in myspace and facebook nope I’m not about to make a dumb mistake about putting my self out there so others can know must be tripping if you ask me.
Well to sum it all up I think I am just about finished saying about what I wanted to get out there maybe not but eh I’m done with this blog number #19 and I got other things I have to tend to in a few minutes and I am just trying to end it up but the four hundred mark here bye for now ha.

Wow the video we had to watch just blow me away how all that can really happen with the click of a button the man went from being a healthy young guy to an over sized older male with none of the pervious features or looks and the women went from a normal person to super model in a matter of minutes not real life but in a picture that was enhanced in to a billboard that advertises false marketing but then again that’s the whole purpose of it all right.
Another thing is that I think people should not be so concerned in the way they look because in the end you come up looking the same as before you tired to fix yourself up or worse plus all the consequences that come with trying to be beyond what you are not. Also lets not forget about how much money that all cost its basically like and arm in a leg just to pay off one thing then by the time you pay that off you will probably want to fix another imperfection you have but really is it not the imperfection someone has makes them their own individual in life to separate you from the rest because I mean come on now if everyone was the same then life you be boring there would not be something interesting about everyone if one thing about you is different then that’s just perfect you are your own.
What I think about this is that why try to fix an imperfection you have if it is not really needed in the first place I mean if you have your teeth messed up then yeah you can fix that because that’s not good for your health at times or your face I don’t really think that’s up there simply because you came in to these world looking like that in the first place but if you were in an incident that cause it to change then yeah that’s understandable to some point do not try to go out there looking like someone else you can set your own don’t be a follower.
And when it come to obesity yes get a surgery but don’t go to far with it because all that will end up happening is that you’ll either end up losing your live or going back to where you started I say work out get in to shape and don’t let yourself get like that in the first place if you can prevent it then do so save your own life cause others are just out there looking for what they can mess up for you.

FaceBook And MySpace the two most talked about topics I hear on the daily, well these two my not be the same website but have so much in common and can be very dangerous at the same time if you do not know how to mange them.
As talked about in the articles that we discussed about in class the other day. Does FaceBook replace face time or enhance it? Well in my opinion its really up to the people now a days simple because the one behind the profile is a person who has the choice of being there or go out in to the open world and go chill with the friends or just chat it up on the computer really its all on the people now a days as I see it if you spend more time on the computer then actually going out and doing something makes me see them as lazy why well because when you can be out there doing something to help out others or even yourself you find yourself there helpless now no one will find that too attractive ha shii I know I would not but then again that’s my opinion with that and what not.
And to start on the other three articles we went through were about the same idea one was call (Colleges Scan Facebook during Admissions) (Jury out on Facebooks impacts on grades) (facebook sparks suspicion). All theses names are interesting but the thing I do not get about the people who are writing them well stop writing about them basically their complaining just suck it up there’s not much you can do about it and if you could then help out with the trouble it is causing point end of discussion ya know. I can understand why the run through their profiles for school work and other stuff but if you do want to mess up your chance at something good that has come your way then do not post anything that will take it away from you and you very will know what can jeopardizes your chances no one is that envy to not know what is wrong from right the only differences is that you just do not want to come up to it admit that you did wrong and then complain about it later and others in other peoples lives journaling about it I mean shii get your own things straight first and leave the others alone causes less problems well that’s how I feel about it to sum all of that up.
