Media diary, 2nd October - 7th October

Don't worry Mr V.S, i have been keeping track!

Well, had a really boring day today media wise, nothing but the good old T.V, was practically forced to watch it when babysitting, as there is simply nothing interesting to do! Nothing particularly interesting was on, except Dana - the 8 year old annorexic. We were told to watch this for Sociology, and i really enjoyed it. I couldnt help but ask myself why was this 8 year old girl obsessed with being skinny? Was it to do with the media and the stereotypical "skinny" image that we are being faced with everyday on TV and magazines?

Watched a powerpoint presentation in Business Studies today (im amazed at how many minutes of the lessons teachers choose to teach us via the media!)

Watched Sex and the City in the evening, listened to some music after school with Susie, while she did a bit of dancing. Picture to prove it!

Had to watch my brother play football for an hour and a half, whilst standing in the cold! Luckily i had my iPod with me, kept me from going insane! Good songs at the moment include: Sex on fire - Kings of Leon

Cookie Jar - Gym Class Heros

Breathe Me - Sia

House music practice..didn't get very far! House song: Shine - Take That

I used to like the song...until i heard us singing it! 

Rest of the day spent doing homework, which included Facebook and Msn.

iTunes was playing constantly, new good song: Paper Planes - M.I.A, purely due to C.K's dancing in Media Studies.

Had to make our own movies in Media Studies, didnt go as well as hoped!

It is actually surprisingly tricky to take just a simple shot!

Didnt get much work after school, just as well seeing as i babysat in the evening, not much on T.V, the people i babysat for only had channels 1-5! Hell when you're used to having the thousands of channels available on Sky! :(

The usual really, listened to iPod when walking from boys school to shootersway, made the walk go a lot quicker!

Facebook, MySpace (less and less now, Facebook is becoming more popular!), Msn, iTunes.
