Journalism and Blogging

I hated blogging! As soon as this assignment is done I am deleting it. I don't see the point of a blog when there are many other ways to get out news and things like that. I think blogging is just a way to get out your opinion and can bring negative controversy. I really don't see the point of it and I won't do it again.

Working and School

I go to school everyday and work five days a week, I take one day off and I get grief about it. I took off work today because I feel like I deserve too, I don't want to have to work six to ten and than wake up at six to come to school and get ready for a concert, plus having to go through all my AP and honors classes, and than having to work five to ten on Friday. It's exhausting. I don't mind working and school but I just don't want a whole lot of grief because I took one day off for me. I may have tomorrow off but it's for a concert and than I have the entire weekend off after Christmas but it's to go to Canada. I'm just so tired and aggravated and annoyed. I love working, and I sort of like school, even though I can't wait to graduate. But I guess that is the thing with work and school, you lose personal time.

The picture posted on my blog

All I would like to say is that I really don't like blogging and that the picture posted actually makes me okay with it for now because when I look at the page it reminds me of happy moments in my life. Now the other things I would like to say to clear everybody's thoughts, This picture was taken in my boyfriends living room on my cell phone while we were watching his brothers, there is no nudity in it, it is just a clean passionate picture. That is all, nothing more. I really didn't think that it would cause so much commotion and i'm sorry, well no i'm really not because whoever thought it was "not appropriate" must have had their mind in the gutter. I will be keeping the picture on because it is one of my favorites and if it is not liked by the people looking on my blog than don't come on my blog in the first place. I am not trying to be rude but I think it is unfair to assume something without hearing from the person you are actually thinking it about. Have you ever heard when you assume, you make an ass of you and me, get it. Ha Ha. That was funny, sorry trying to make light of the situation. I am not afraid to show that I am passionate to the people who mean the world to me, if it is not slutty or provocative, than it really shouldn't bother anyone. That is all I have to say, I hope the misunderstanding was cleared up with anybody who had a problem with the picture. Thanks and have a fantastic day!
