Hey guys, between working, taking care of your kid(s), and school, do you ever have a day where it's devoted just for you? Personally I devoted every other Friday which is what I call " Mommy Day". Being that everyday I am a mom and motherhood calls 24/8, It can be challenging but doing this helps give me the pick me up that I need. Mommy day can be me being in the house in my pj's and catching up on my shows or treating myself to a manicure and pedicure. The reason why its every other Friday because normally when its not mommy day, I spend it with my son and we go out and enjoy each others company. Everyone should have a day or even a minute where they can collect their thoughts or take a break from the struggles of life. I find that giving myself some "Me" time, I'm more energized, positive, and I feel like I can conquer anything the next week throws at me.

Hey guys, this week is all about media. In my English 102 class, I have been asked to write an essay about the power of media. Since I have been working on this essay, I have noticed the littlest things pertaining to media. Just yesterday I was talking to my brother about something on the news and when i tried to pull the article up, I couldn't. I had to pull the article up on Facebook. The fact that the news station that I was using didn't have the article on their own website but instead on Facebook took me by surprise. Normally when searching for the news , you are to go directly to the source which in my case was the news stations website. The fact that you can get recent news fast on social media sites and not the website is completely backwards to me. I've also noticed through out writing this essay, for people who are really not social media savvy can get the news from other sources like YouTube. My cousin is a prime example of this, she would rather watch a you tube video containing the news that she's interested in and not watch the actual news. I personally like watching the news and any news that i find interesting I look it up on my cellphone. When I watched the news, I noticed that they would spend a few minutes discussing the topic and move on without giving enough details. As the days fly past I find myself interested in how we receive mass media. In the future you can only imagine how the world will perceive mass media.
This is a great post! It's interesting how we receive our news from different media sources. Thank you for sharing!
