Journal 1, T.V.

I was thinking, why do some people call the television an "idiot box." As far as I am concerned the television is responsible for about 55% of the knowledge that I have come across minus school. I mean if you think about it everyone watches television and there is a wide range of programs. Yes i will agree that there are several dumbass shows that really have no value accept for purley entertainment. On the other hand there are numerous programs that have high, not so much educational value but, knowledgable value. For example you have news, which has become not so much news but, a station that claims to have the latest breaking stories including Brittney Spears' 5th baby and a poll on weather or not Paris Hilton should go to jail or not. Also it seems to me like they try to find the most fucked up stories they can just to get people to watch their news channel ovr the next. But anyways I was saying there is also the discovery channel, history channel give us general knowledge about the past and some sticky situations that many of us will never experience but it is just nice to know what to do if you get stranded out in the middle of the ocean on a shitty raft. Also the channels that constantly show how the stock market is doing helps out people with their jobs. Also sportcenter which if you are into sports is like the only channel you watch, because thats exactly how I am. Now none of these programs are essential to live your life, but they just help make our social lives easier. And how nice is it just to have general knowledge. Like how many times have you heard someone or had someone ask you did you see the beginign of shark week last night it was fucking insane. Or whatever it doesn't really matter, but it gives us something to talk about with prety much anyone because like I said earlier almost everyone watches television. Also television has a dramatic effect on our social lives because four blond rich stuck up bitches on MTV set in motion an avalanche of bitches that sworm our streets trying to be as cool or as hot as these idealistic and unrealistic bitches on television. It doesn't make any sense be yourself girls thats way we like you! In conclusion television has its ups and downs but I beleive it was a great achievement in history and it brings the good, the bad, and the ugly to all of us with the push of a button.

I am...

I would say that I am the greatest man alive, my freinds would describe me as a cocky mother fucker thats good at prety much anything I do and if Im not the best at it I usually learn it prety fast and quickly become the best at it. I played baseball all through high school and was contemplating playing for Waubonsee but i desided to just work and concentrate on school. Also I love money it's like and addiction to try and get as much money as I can in the shortest amount of time. My goal in life is to make enough money so I can retier at the ripe old age of 35. That's really the only reason Im going to school right now, so I can learn the things I need to know to make as much money as I can, or I would still be working in a factory. I don't mind doing hard work as long as the reward is worth it. This is my first year in college and so far Im loving it. It seems prety easy so far but it is only the second week, hopefully it continues to be easy. Im majoring in construction managment and I would love nothing more than to start my own buisness right out of college. Thats a breif summary of me off the top of my head, I may be verry arrogant but I am a cool ass person that gets along with prety much everyone, I love to party and have a good time.
