Blog #2: Addicted to the Virtual and Social worlds!

As I payed attention to the video clips and to some of my college friends, I noticed that we are all wrapped around in the games and the social networks. Games such as the ones like halo or any other games. I can attest to being around some one who is addicted to a internet game.My little brother would argue over the computer, he and his friends are all online playing the same game and occupying the telephones while doing so.  A statement that stood out to me, was that the virtual world was effecting the minds consciously and   sub-consciously. And as far as the social networks, I can say that it is now face book and twitter is on the rise. I absolutely believe that this is ridiculous. We are allowing the virtual and social worlds to interact for us. Instead of calling or actually going to meet up with someone, we actually hook up on the internet and have a relationship like that. I consider the two of these noise because it blocks the "face to face" relationship that we should have with one another. People can be on the computer for more than 3 hours during the day. Our days are wasted on these games and social networks. Its sad to say, but WHAT IS THIS WORLD COMING TOO!!!!!

Blog #1: Something about Precious

Well Hello my name is Precious Bryan and Iam a second semester sophmore at shippensburg University. My major is Accounting (YIKES!!!!).. lol but hey, "you gotta do what you gotta do!!!!!" I love to spend money on tings like clothes, accessories, shoes, bags, and beauty!!! I love talking on the cell phone and texting, and finally speding time with my family, friends, and the boyfriend!! I am from philadelphia,so the music that I like is R&B, gospel, some pop a little bit of rap, and I love reggae music. I love to watch movies. I like all movies but the favortes are romance, comedy, suspense, thriller and Horror!!! I am the goofy, silly, loud and very out going person. I love to play dancng and singng gams on the wii!!!!!!!!! But I chose this partcular Lit. class because I heard that Dr. Mortimore were one of the "Good Ones". I hear that her teaching techniques are very unique. To be honest, the last book that I actually sat down and read was called the "Black Boy" written by Richard A. Wright. This was in high school. Reading has always been boring to me. In order for me to actualy get into the book, I have to be intrested in the subject of the book. In my opinion Literature isnt only about reading, I think its more about the concept, and the abstract meanings in the reading. I also think it is the art of words! Well this is my profile!! Pease Enjoy
