Assignment # 11 Question # 5

It was a really serious questions and it was also the reality. We were always feeling good with everything about beauty. Sometimes I think we were all blinded, because we didn't really think about the consequences. McDonalds was making a lot of money based on those unhealthy food. People went to there don't care about the taste, because it was the fast food and it was convenient. All of us should be know that fast food was really awlful to our bodies. I think the company leaders and the media should pay attentions to thoes commercial. They also have the responsibility to control this kind of messages and may quit that easily if they has consciences. Afeter we watched TV, we can see those people was snobbish. They said news were what they said. What kind of situation do they involved? We all know that Fox news was always said that news should be fair and balance. Nevertheless, they were the one who lies to this slogan. They also afraid to lose money on advertisements. I think they also have the responsibility to control the messages in the commercial.

Assignment # 11 Question # 6

There were millions of merchants were pursuit profits without justice. Isn't all this happened just because there were a lot of competitions outside and numbers of people unemployment? I think I am snobbish because I do choose the products based on their company first. Well, sometimes I will considering the quality. There were also a lot of imitated brands. However, there was a real rule in my heart, which was if the products were coming from those famous companies, the quality, brand and other serious things were absolutely true. Advertisements also has formitable power that can shake my mind easily. Usually I got these informations from advertisements. If they said it pretty good or those pictures were beautiful, I will change my mind quickly. I also compared the other companies' ads together and choose one more gorgeous. Actually I didn't care to much about the prices, because I thought a product's quality was depended on the prices. Friend's opinions were very important to me. It also credible because they might tried it before. I believed that all they recommended were better than others.

Assignment # 11 Question # 4

In our society, everyone have their own right. They can do everything limited by the constitutions. Whenever we were watching TV, listening to radio or surfing the Internet. They all said that children were new hopes, they were the stars for tomorrow. Redarding at those points, should the goverment restrict the obesity of those pornography? I think they did need to take the actions around this article. It may become a serious problem. It related to children's innocent and their intense curiosity. Some families might have some kind of strict traditions or hildbound cultures. They will be shame by their kids. It should be very sensitive while their children has some bright habits. It could be a huge pity if they will meet someone they love deeply after they lost their virginity. It can also caused a great impact between families and brought some unneccessary problems to their lives. In the other way to consider this question, I think it may have a better side. That is they can learn more knowledges about sex and may analylize the standard. If they are sensitive, they can prevent or slove this problem easily. They also have better realize on those diseases transformed. In my own opinions, it just liked the world, have dawn and dark.

Assignment # 10 Question # 5

5. How do you feel about music videos now that we read the story about women being objectified so much?

Right now, our standard level is moving up. Almost everyone is throw out those feodal traditions. We cannot always standing by one situation, we need to consider all the angles of this question. The world is improving everyday and our minds are changing everyday too. We cannot always focus on one point, otherwise we are not going to move up. We have our own rights to pursuit everything we want, everything is about those beautiful, fabulous,gorgerous things around us. I don't think those women singers really has indecent side. It just inside of the small box. It doesn't mean anything outside, it's not the reality. They made those video just followed what people need. I didn't care about what they showed in the music video, it didn't represent their own characteristics. I thought what they acted in their music video cannot observe on their decents. I also wonder how come those men can do that, and nobody critisize them. It was unfair. Everyone just say the same slogan, like we need to treat everyone fairly. However, Nobody fulfil this rule. We need to open our versions and accept those changes on women. Nevertheless, I did think they can influence teenagers easily. Teenagers didn't think so much, all they pursuited were cool and fashion staffs. We should not felt guity when they were playing in their videoes. To looked at the other side, they are hard workers. The only fact I can say is when all the new things starts, their ending is miserable. After a while, they will accept it and it will getting popular. It just a normal thing, we cannot dig a huge hole. It just fine, nothing special.

Assignment # 10 Question # 3

3. What 3 things do you like about the blogs? What 3 things do you dislike about the blogs?


Internet has became a huge market place in 21st century. As long as we are focusing about this kind of situation, most producers will thinking lots of new ideas to attracting our minds. They are also creating a number of home websites. For one survoy that Mr. Rosenburg gave it to us several weeks ago, I knew that only 30 percent of Internet users knows what is blog. In my own opinion, I think blog is redandunt. I didn't use that too often, so I may consider myself was part of those thirty. I think I don't like blogs because it's not very useful, it didn't expand every where. Blog is also a bald website. They don't have music can help us to release fatigues. They don't have any entertainments we can pursuits. They also don't have some novels or interesting matters we can watches. Blog didn't have a real thing to grab my version, I thought that was hundrum. The last thing I don't like blogs because we cannot chat with our friends. Whenever we talk to our friends, everything around us will getting better. Laugh can make us feel like we are close to each other, we are not alone anymore. I thought that important in our lives. However, blogs did have an expedient side. First, that was fabulous to use it to do our homeworks. To me, it just killed two birds in one stone. We also improved our typing speed while we were doing homeworks. Computer skill is the requirements while we are studying. It may helps us on that. Second, whenever we felt very depressed or happy. We can publish it and share our santations. There is no one knows you, so you can said it freely. You don't need to worry about someone will leak your secrets. It is cool. It helps us to clean up those poisions in our bodies and share our happiness. Third, I also think it really can help us to improving our composition level. The advantage of blog is you can publish it. Maybe you met someone was really adopt at writing. They will give you their comments. You can helping each other to move up the ladder. That was the effectual way to attain your goals.

Assignment # 10 Question # 1

1. Do you use the media as much as you did at the beginning of this class?

I think media is indispensability in my daily lives. If one day there was a law declare that everyone should be standing back from media. The only result of my ending is death, for exactly is my fastidium force me not to consider anything about alive. Of course, that was more exaggerated. Nevertheless, media was important as oxygen in my world. We were new immigrants to United States, there were a myriad of situations we connot handle it. Everyday we are following tension rhythms, we cannot be slow down. Otherwise we will be kicking out of this machine-made game. However, where have a funny place serves us a relax time? We don't have money to pay our trips every time. Media may helps us to save some money. We didn't spend as much money as we involving in a journal. Obviously I am advocating use media. To be honest, I use it everyday. Some of those TV shows can bring fun to you and that is free. While we are laughing together, that means we are releasing our pressures. My computer is opening for 24 hours a day, and that was most of my friends do to. We also listening radio when we are driving a car, so it was not that stuffy. My uncle usually listened hocky with my cousin in the car. They also has different expressions on their faces, I thought that was interesting by looking at them. Internet can shorten our distance while we were chatting. I also can saw my family members and my friends through the WebCam. I don't know how can I survive when I first time came to this new country. My tears will flooding over me. News was a reflection of our society and the outside world around us, it was expedient. As long as it's all about reality. Most likely I did use media a lot, and I cannot imagine how much isn't. I will keep using it, because it was a new communication skill, that is just the way use to be!

There also have a lot of advertisements in the internet. Neverless, I did enjoying watch TV. There were so many channels we can choose, a number of repertoires we can watch. Last year, I lived with uncle. That was very boring, fortunatly I can spend some of my times on TV. I think I spent thirty hours or more in front of TV. Most of the time I was eating in front of the TV shows. I love to do that, even if my mom always said that didn't healthy. My cousin liked to do the same thing with me. That was our habit. Sometimes I was talking to my family members while I was watching TV shows. We were dicussing the roles in the shows, that was funny. We also can related to some of other people, they may have the same characteristics or something similar at outside of their bodies. That was also a way to gather us together and cultivated our sensations.

1. What is the stupidest thing you have done? Share the details. How did it affect you? Did it affect others as well? How often do you do something stupid?


Spring break was a great time for resting, it also a great opportunity for fun. Most of us might traveling out of town with their faimilies or friends. Of course, we may meet some stupid things or done something stupid. I mean come on, that was as normal as eating ot sleeping. I remembered the most stupidest thing that I was suffering. There was one day that I came out with friends to singing K. After that, we were all happy and we had an idea to go to another place. One of my friend said that she heard there was a beer bar just opened for teenagers. She also emphasizing there was no police checking. All of us felt very exciting because we never attend that kind of area before. This novelty idea was attracting us deeply. When we reached there, we cannot found that place. We also walked up two streets, then we realized we went to the wrong direction. We were almost despair when we were searching it. Finally, I saw a signboard it wrote the same thing that we were finding. We were extremely excited and we sceaming over the street. Neverless, when we was standing under the signboard. I can saw it wrote clearly, "Janpanese noodle." Oh, my God! I mean what the hell was that. We were finding it in spite of cold and dark. Although we were quivering like three falling leaves, we were still keeping look at that. The result was suprising us a lot. If hisroty can re-play, I am not going to do this kind of stupid thing again. It showed how innocent of those teenagers. They never think about the negatives, they just want to have some fun. I think I did those stupid things regularity. I was wondering why, because I cannot quit to do that. It was werid, just like inside of my body went wrong. It lost control. I did believe they were a myriad of kids like us outside of the world. It was a good question, we should be participate about concern what is the baseline of stupid. I also think that should be a standard can help us to realize it .

Assignment # 8 Question # 4

4. Consider the results of the high school study: Seventy-three percent of students polled say they do not know how they feel about the First Amendment or take their rights for granted. More than 30 percent would welcome press censorship and think the First Amendment goes too far in the rights it guarantees. Four percent incorrectly believe that flag burning is illegal. Fifty percent incorrectly think the government can restrict indecent material on the Internet. Define "Freedom of Speech". What does it mean to you? How do you take advantage of this constitutional right? Do you believe certain speech should not be protected by the constitution?

In my mind, I think "Freedom of Speech" is whatever you say is not against the law. You can cursing anyone or admire someone, they are not doing to put you into jail. I think it should be protected by the consititution, because our status are not stable at same level. Some powerful people may think that everyone should be respect on them. If our speeches doesn't ensure by law, we may worry about that. Those higher classes all have a good relationship. Money and power always depends on each other. Despite what other people thinks, I think we cannot always curse people even if we have this right. If you want to have a healthy relationships with somebody, we need to trust ot respect them. We need to used it correctly to prevent any unnecessary troubles. Those rights kept us in a safe place and decrease some damages. We also need to respect to our constitutions, they gave us the goods to protect our own personal staffs.

Assignment # 8 Question # 3

3. I am a firm believer that everyone deserves at least five minutes a day of pure, unadulterated egocentricity. That means that you say a lot of good things about yourself. If you can't say something nice about you, who can? Taking a positive self inventory of oneself is not only ok, it's down right important to one's survival. Please take the time, and about a half page to write some really nice things about yourself. What do you like about you? How well do you do something? Pat yourself on the back and get writing.

I have never consider about this kind of question before. Maybe that's because I am also wondering who am I, what kind of person am I, do I play a great role in my life than may influence other people? Sometimes I think that I was an inconsistent girl, because I didn't care too much things. If I am thinking about those good personality about myself, the main point that I think it's I always sympatheze thoes seniors. Whenever I saw someone who was old and poor, I think that was miserable. I was trying to do my best to help them, even if I just donated a little money. I felt satisfied, otherwise I will be sad. The other way that I am thinking about is my family has an important status in my heart. I love them pretty much. Whatever I am doing, I always consider them first. If I have a job, I was thinking I may give my salary to my mother and my little brother in China. I thought my mother was lonely in China, I don't want her to worry about me. I want her to have a wonderful senectitude. I am not sure how well I am doing a thing, but I always try my best to complete it. If I have an aim, I will never giving up. The basic thing is I am interested on it.

Assignment # 8 Question # 2

2. Many people in the news media seem to think that the blog is going to replace the newspaper as the number one source for read news. What are the pros and cons of this happening? What advice would you give someone who is interested in getting news information from a credible source?

In some cases, it's not a worse way to do that. Although there were not as many people knew blogs, it will works anyway. Newspaper's main intension was giving informations to people. There are a myriad of people was using Internet, so that might be a convenient way to post news on blogs. It also introduces some people to realize blogs' real functions. I think there may have a company or any groups of people has monopoly about this. At least it have to be protect by laws. Internet is a free place to express your rights, it also has become a huge market place. Some spiteful people may use this source to make money. It could be one of the cons part about this idea. I think the pros part is people can use their leisure time by reading news on blogs. They can also post their opinions, what do they thinks about this news, any new ideas may help it to make better. They also can have some discussions on there. Some ideas may be acceptable and keep this source in a safe way. People can use it securely, they doesn't need to worry about anything will destroying it. Their cooperation is very important and they need to make sure that their personal benefits are safe. They also cannot attack on other's articles. To consider all the angles of this problem, those events were what I can focus on so far.
