Obama Girl No Longer Has a Crush on the President

Obama girl has lost her crush on Barack Obama. . . and it is news worthy.


"In my opinion, I feel like he should be focusing a lot more on jobs and the economy," Amber Lee Ettinger (Obama Girl) told the New York Post.
"He did create some jobs, but most of them were government jobs and that doesn't really help the middle class," she added.

Her grade for Obama: B- minus.

Boston Celtics- Elderly in the NBA

For the third season in a row, Boston has dipped into the veteran free agent market and added depth for a title run, this time in the form of former All-Star Michael Finley. Now that the Celtics signed Michael Finley, age 37!! (the 8th oldest in the NBA) they have some of the oldest players in the NBA.

Adding Finley made Kevin Garnett, 33 with high mileage, the team's fourth-oldest player. On 12 other teams, KG would be the eldest statesman.

Finley is no doubt a great player:

He has averaged 15.9 PPG, 4.4 RPG and 3.0 APG in his 14-year career, all while shooting 37.4 percent from 3-point range. He will wear No. 40 for the Celts.

Boston will welcome Finley to the team for its 8 p.m. Sunday night matchup with the Wizards in the Garden, but it's unknown if he will play.

Cougar Town

Cougar Town is the funniest show in the world. I have compiled what I believe to be the most hilarious quotes from the show. If they say anything really hilarious in the future I will let you know. Also, I have included a clip from my favorite episode. And Ellie is THE best.



Cougar Town Quotes:
1. Laurie [to Jules for picture]: Arch your back and stick out your chest
Ellie: And say classy!

2. Ellie [to Andy]: Listen half pint, I'm not gonna thank you for things you're supposed to do. If I did I'd have to start thanking you for killing bugs and supporting me.

3. Ellie: Racist Uncle or Drug Dealer Uncle?
Jules: Racist Uncle. Drug Dealer Uncle is now Prison Uncle.
Ellie: Oh right, because of Detective Cousin.

4. Laurie: Hey Grayson, if you were at a BBQ playing drinking games with your buds would you chug a girls beer and hug her sweetly from behind without trying to cop a feel if you weren't in love with her?
Grayson: Please stop coming to my bar.



5. Grayson: When women get older, it's icky. When men get older, it's adorable. It's my favorite double standard.
Jules: Yeah, I'm not a huge fan.

6. Jules: Good morning! I've been up for hours
Grayson: I had eggs for breakfast
Jules: What?
Grayson: Oh I'm sorry, I thought we were sharing incredibly boring facts about each other.

7. Jules: I'm guessing the boy I flashed goes to your school
Travis: Yes he does
Jules: Is he single? ... Kidding! Why don't you ever laugh at my jokes?
Travis: Because they make me sad.

8. Travis: I'm sure it's not that bad, let me see.
Barb: No! Innocence should be lost in the bedroom... or on a commercial cruise liner.

so much love.

The Stages of Love (in the Media)

In my class, we talked about how there are media stages that one has to go through when wanting to get to know someone better. I am pretty positive that it was this: (and if not, I think that this is pretty darn accurate anyway)

So, you meet someone briefly, and they seem cool so you want to get to know them. Now you,
1. Add them as a friend on facebook. Sooner if you have mutual friends, because that is obviously how you found them (I was looking at Sarah's page, and saw you wrote on her wall last month!)

2. You like their status. This is good because it means you are recognizing the facebook friendship, but you could have easily just seen their status in your newsfeed, and "liked" it, you definitely weren't stalking their profile!

3. Facebook chat. Once you break the facebook boundary, you can have a conversation over fb chat. What a wonderful little tool. You can even say something about how funny thier status was, how true you thought it to be.

4. Over facebook chat, or possibly a message, you can now move on to GETTING THEIR NUMBER. This is a huge step, and it is a tricky one, because you usually have to have a reason. Few people just ask for it straight up- that is usually socially awkward.

5. Texting. Texting is where its at. Once you feel comfortable texting a guy about a random thing, this means your relationship is finally developing. However, it is a tough call when to draw the line on creepy texts, and what hour the texts are sent (3AM- not okay).

6. CALLING THEM ON THE PHONE- this is one of the most bold things a person can do nowadays. And I am talking about calling for basically no reason, or making up a reason just so you can talk to them. Not if you legitimately need to talk to them. We so rarely just chat to people over the phone now, especially if we are interested in them. So, this step shows real initiative.

FINALLY- The HANG OUT!
Now, for some people, the hang out comes before all 6 steps, which is fine. But the 6 steps still happen before you are "in a relationship".
Most people say that if someone goes out of order, it seems socially awkward. . . What do you think!?

Is it worth it, let me work it. I put my thing down flip it and reverse it.

THE BACHELOR

Jake Pavelka!

After Harris (some chick from an earlier season) rejected Pavelka, scores of other American women sent in love notes to ABC saying that they wanted to divorce their husbands and would give away their children and/or toy dogs just for a chance to dress up in a discounted pageant gown and drink champagne with him. Pavelka is classically cute, he’s got a symmetrical face with dimples, blue eyes, blond hair, and a buff bod. Thankfully for ABC he also has the ability to rattle off romance cliches at a breathtaking pace without once cracking a smile. A gem from a previous episode: “Love’s more powerful than flying.”

I don't care for Jake. He is a ridiculous person, and way too sensitive for a guy who is willing to find "love" on national television. He should probably have known that he would be meeting crazy slut's like Vienna, Ali and Michelle. (and more).

Tonight was the "Women Tell ALL" and here are some observations/things I learned:

1. Ashley H. PURPOSEFULLY fell down. What an idiot.

2. Rozlyn looks like Hilary Duff.

3. Vienna needs to get some different eyeshadow. Gray smeared all around her eyes is disgusting.

4. Love will not be found on television.

"Racy" Scotty Lago Pics

So, the snowboarder Scotty Lago from the USA left Vancouver after some inappropriate photos of Scotty, wearing a Team USA T-shirt, and his medal surfaced.

"There are better ways to celebrate than just drinking and having idiotic pictures along with women, but Scotty needs to learn some manners. The Olympian Scotty was participating in the Olympics in Vancouver. After winning his Bronze medal he started to party in his own style. The player got some photographs along with a woman who bit her medal and in another picture she was kissing his medal when it was placed on his pants close to his penis"



I feel like these photos are ridiculous and nothing scandalous is actually going on. How do you feel? Is is worse because he is representing the USA? What about all those slutty celebs from the USA?

The Cinco

The Cinco involves having 5 main crushes at any given time:
I propose:
1. The Ward Crush
2. The Work Crush
3. The School Crush
4. The Facebook Crush
5. The Olive Garden Boy Crush (Can also be Spoon Me Boy Crush, Macey's Cashier Boy Crush etc, you get the idea)

You can have any other random crush in any place you frequent, maybe Gold's Gym Treadmill Boy Crush or whatever.

This way, you don't accidentally obsess too much over one boy. And if School Crush rejects you, you can move along to Work Crush or any of the others. Slowly you can replace School Crush for when this may happen again. You get the idea?

The facebook phenomenon: Bra Color Status

I had received the invitation to change my status to my bra color 3 times before I actually did it, but the real reasons I caved were:

1. One friends status was: "LADIES... NO ONE CARES WHAT COLOR YOUR BRA IS!!! This information shows NOTHING about your support of cancer research... pay money to American Cancer Society if you want to support breast cancer research!"

This particular status update sparked 33!! comments ranging from outrage to sarcastic to humorous. My personal choice of response was, "hey, you aren't supposed to tell the boys"
This friends status actually pissed me off, mostly because I hate when people over react that like. Whats it to her if everyone's status is a color? Its not actually hurting anything. In fact, it might actually spark people's minds on the topic of breast cancer research! It actually did to me. When I am no longer a college student, and am in a position to donate funds to charitable causes, I plan to. Nothing and no one is hurting from seeing black, red, pink or white as someone's status. This is the first reason I changed my own to "red".

2. The more shallow reason: Everyone was doing it! On my home page there were tons of girl facebook friends updating with colors. I thought, what harm could it do? If enough girls decide to do it, the chances are at least a few people who had not even had a thought about breast cancer, would think about it! Maybe even donate if they could.

So I did. Did you?

Some people took a different outlook than I did about the color status phenomenon:

Most Influential

For a class, I am supposed to read a biography or an autobiography of basically anyone I want. Obviously, I want to read about someone who had an interesting and influential life. I googled "most influential people" and came up with the 2009 Times 100.

Link: http://www.time.com/time/specials/packages/completelist/0,29569,1894410,00.html

First of all, of the 100 people, I recognize only 23 names. Most of which are from the "Artists and Entertainers" and "Heroes and Icons" lists. What does this say about me?

Anyway, I wasn't very happy about that, so I am going to try harder to gain knowledge about what is going on in the world outside of the entertainment industry and the Provo bubble. That is [one of] my New Years Resolution[s]! Maybe as a good starting point, I will choose to read a biography about someone who I didn't know about until I looked at this list.

Everything is better if its FREE!

So, I look at various topics on wikipedia probably at least 5 times a day, often more. Right now, they are asking for donations by putting a bar at the top of the screen with names of donors along with an amount they donated and a testimonial of some sort.

After thinking, what? I do not want to pay money to wikipedia! I will not!

I then considered how much we expect our media to be free. We don't want to pay a dime for anything, even though someone had to put their time and effort into providing us with the things we receive. Pretty much everything on the internet is a given- free. facebook (there are always speculations that they will start charging, and everyone freaks out and makes 3 million groups about it), music (pandora charges if you listen more than 40 HOURS a month??!!!? OUTRAGE!), television (WHAT? Hulu is charging money next year?!!?? I will never be paying for that!).

So, why do we think that we shouldn't have to pay for anything? Or what do we consider worthy of our money?

Are they any problems with things being free?
Yes.
-Pornography- accessible, anonymous and affordable. Now more than ever, anyone can view pornography without anyone knowing (they don't have to shell out money for it, and they don't have to go to the store to buy it). This has caused more problems for relationships and families than I want to think about.

-Failing Music Industry- who wants to pay for music when they are many sites (most perfectly legal) that they can get it from for free?

-Promises to "NEVER pay for movies again" which I got when I googled it. This will probably never happen, and people get all mad when they have to pay a dollar to watch a good film. What about the millions of dollars put into that movie to make it so good?

-If something does cost money, people often ignore it. "I won't pay for that!" hulu, "elfyourself" (people ONLY ever make the free ones), people who do free trials of netflix and then cancel after 15 days of watching as many movies as they possibly could.

I am guilty of the obsession with FREE things, too. Just something to think about?

Media Portrayals of Alcohol

College students reported that positive drinking outcomes, like having fun, socializing, meeting new people and expressing oneself, are more common than negative outcomes (Murphy et al, 2006). Negative consequences often do not occur immediately, meaning that youth and young adults may not see the adverse effects of drinking until it is too late. Real life positive outcomes are typically defined as increases in social benefits, which is in line with media portrayals. The only instance in Gossip Girl that negative consequences were more prevalent than positive was when the character was drinking alone, meaning they had no chance of benefiting socially. If there are depictions of under age drinking, more negative consequences should be shown in order to prevent early onset of drinking, as well as dependence in later life. In addition, television producers may have the responsibility to depict events and activities, other than drinking, that can bring positive outcomes.

A fellow blogger asked the following questions:

I just recently started watching Gossip Girl . I'm just wondering, does anyone else find it weird that the main characters in this tv series are always at a bar drinking when they're supposed to be in high school? Does this say something about the integrity of NYC bars? Or does it put pressure on those high school viewers to drink?

To answer her, I think YES to both.

gleeeeeee my new favorite show!

Letter to the CW

I am a fan of Gossip Girl, and have been since Season 1. Part of the reason I enjoy the show is that the characters are a little rebellious, and get themselves into plenty of situations that I would never want to be in myself. But the fact that it is on television, and that these are characters rather than real people makes it fun to watch. However, the November 9th and November 16th episodes of Gossip Girl made me very uncomfortable. Both of the episodes featured major characters involved in a sexual threesome. The way it was portrayed made it seem like it was a “normal college experience”. While the second episode did portray problems that stemmed from their actions, it was never mentioned that the threesome wasn’t a good idea, only that they chose the wrong person to include. “The third person should be a stranger” was the response of several other characters.

Television is very influential in the lives of children, especially when it comes to decisions about sex. It has even been described as a "sexual super-peer" - meaning that television has the ability to intensify the peer-pressure teens are already feeling to engage in high-risk sexual behaviors, such as a threesome, which could be damaging to their physical and emotional well-being. When television portrays attractive, popular teenage characters as sexually active, it sends a powerful message to young viewers that they, too, should be sexually active and in fact, there might be something wrong with them if they aren't. Gossip Girl has portrayed this message on many occasions, but they rarely show the characters in bed in their underwear, kissing, like they did on the aforementioned episodes. Teens are aware that television influences their behavior. According to one survey, a third of youths 12 and older say the media encourages them to have sex by making it seem like "everybody does it." Many studies from past few years have revealed a strong correlation between exposure to adult media content in childhood and early onset of sexual activity among teens.

I ask that you take the time to think about the consequences you may be inflicting on the teens who watch Gossip Girl, as well as the other shows on your network. Not only the threesome, but other influential messages about sexual activity as well. Teens and young adults do look to the media for messages about sex, and they should see at least some good examples and not feel like they have to act like the characters portrayed on their show to be liked, or worse, loved.
