Our generation is revolutionary. Social media outlets like Instagram, Twitter, or even Facebook, have been used to help individuals overcome their personal identity. These social media outlets can help those who feel alone, not so alone. Everyone and anyone can find people like themselves on the wide and vast internet. Youtube is mostly used for this outlet of finding ones true self, or using it … Continue reading Identity Development in Media
Read the article I’m going to vent about here: When reading this blog post, I realized the main point was popular feminism and misogyny. Honestly, I didn’t understand most of the article posted because it states a lot of terms as if the reader already knows what those terms are. Very little did it explain what specific terms meant. I had to look up a … Continue reading Popular Misogyny
Hi everyone! So, I had the ability to make a podcast this week for a class of mine, here at homebase CNU. My co-host is Michaela Smith, another student in the class I take. We explore the pros and cons of social media, whether it’s about youth activism, sexting, Catfish (the TV show), and so on! It’s only a bit over ten minutes, so it’s … Continue reading Surprise Life Update: My podcast is NOW streaming!
To conclude this night, CNU loses to Steven’s. Steven’s was very happy to have won, especially since they came all the way down to here (Virginia) from New Jersey. CNU didn’t seem to stressed about the win, even though this is their home turf field. Overall, the two teams were a good fit for each other to fight. They balanced off who had streaks throughout … Continue reading CNU vs. Stevens: Men’s Lacrosse
First off, what is radio? Is podcasting actually a radio element? Let’s talk about it. Radio is always contradicted to be purely an audio medium, though podcasting challenges the status of what radio really is. Radio is a evolutionary product that changes in any situation it can be in; the medium has adapted to technological advances for years and years. Podcasting on the other hand … Continue reading Let’s Talk About: Radio vs. Podcast
This week, I decided to delve into the realm of podcasts. I listened to episodes from three different podcasts– Comedy, Story, and Lifestyle/Advice. All three of these are structured in completely different ways. I decided to find my podcast content on Spotify, since I have Prime and don’t have to be interrupted with random ads from Spotify. That’s always annoying, right? Usually for other media … Continue reading Let’s Talk About Podcasts
Tonight I embarked on a new challenge– live-tweeting! I tried live-tweeting the Oscars, and boy was it a lot to take in. At first, it was pretty easy but then got progressively difficult. I scrolled on twitter for a little bit, saw some witty Twitter posts, got creative with my own, and watched the overall Live performance. Though, I should’ve been in a different environment, … Continue reading The Oscars!
Happy Hump Day! Today is my last day of going on Feedly for my classes challenge. I’ve noticed today that there were lots of articles that focused on environmental concerns, whether it’s about climate change or animal extinction. Concerns about the weather was as well apparent on Feedly. There wasn’t a lot of positive articles today, which is obviously a bummer. Other than the weather … Continue reading Feeding on Feedly #4

The best news come on Monday because, well, who likes Mondays? The weekend just ended and most people are dreading to go back to work! I found out that everyday, the Associated Press does an everyday news cap video … Continue reading Feeding on Feedly #3
After all of the gross Valentines Day posts were made and finished yesterday, I decided to blog about Feedly today after all of that sappy stuff was made! My favorite news posts today were primarily focused on Science. The first article that caught my eye today was about star clusters, and it attracted me because of its cute title “Tidal Tails”. It sounded like a … Continue reading Feeding on Feedly #2
