Once upon a time... when I had a life...

Hello fellow bloggers!

The date is December 27 and the time is currently 9:23 AM. Our assignments were due on the 24th and I am just now getting to them. Did anyone else have an absolutely insane week? I just started my first 'real person' job as a sales representative with an insurance company and it has been crazy trying to pass Ohio's state insurance examinations. They are a lot more difficult than you would think, let me tell you. My company gives employees 2 attempts to pass it then we are let go so I've been worrying myself sick trying to study so I can pass this exam. Oiy! Then Christmas sort of came out of absolutely no where, which brought about even more mass chaos trying to start AND finish all my Christmas shopping on Christmas Eve. I swear I will never procrastinate that chore ever again... it was way too stressful doing the shopping then rushing home to wrap everything only for my amazing wrapping job to be torn to shreds literally 12 hours later. Okay... I think I'm done with this little rant. I figured blogs are supposed to inform readers about the authors everyday life so there you have it! Anyways, back to this assignment...

I have really enjoyed this class because it allows me to use resources I have never thought of before, like TWoP, which I have even used 'outside' of this class to find information on certain shows. TWoP is a great website because it is kept current with lots of insightful information from people who completely devote themselves to the world of mass media. My favorite and what I believe is the most informative part of TWoP is definitely the device on the site that allows patrons to view recaps for whatever show they want! For people like me who have a different schedule everyday and cannot commit to a TV show, it's great because I can catch up on what I missed then decide if I should take the time to watch an episode of a show I missed. The most entertaining feature on TWoP, in my opinion, are the blogs! If you cannot tell by reading my blog, I very much enjoy talking as well as conversating with other people... even online. The blogs allow for readers to learn about people in almost a story-like context, which is really cool. The blogs about movie reviews are typically pretty funny because there is a lot of witty criticism used, which is amusing to me.

Well, I must get going and continue to study for the insurance exam, which I am taking tomorrow afternoon. It's my final attempt so I have to study all day today. Hopefully you enjoyed my blog today. TTYL!:)
