Home Sweet Home

when i think of home....I remember one thing in particular...MY BED...
After being away in college i find myself sleeping in places and on beds that my body is not accustomed to. So naturally, my body does not like it. When i went home for fall break, and when i go home for other breaks the one thing that i love to do is sleep. Do to how hectic school can be and how crazy it gets on the weekends, i dont normally sleep well. So when i go home i normally devote one day to complete hibernation.

Saturday Night Live Political Skit.

In order to get the full affect of the halariousness of the skit, one would have to understand many things that have occured in the past year. First the way Palin spoke in the skit is directly related to her actual accent that she speaks with. Clinton seems very frustrated throughout the skit at the mention of the White House. This is because she was once a front runner for the presidential seat and fell behind to, which everyone was suprised, Sarah Palin. They spoke on the topic of sexism and how calling women names like MILF and boner- shrinker can denote women. This is humerous in that it is a contrast in the beauty and youth of Palin and the older not as attractive Hillary Clinton.

What would you do if you were the opposite sex for one day?

As i awake to a couplesome of mountainous breasts sittin atop of my chest...i would first look around to make sure no one was present...Then i would proceed to slightly get a feel for the situation. After a very thorough evaluation i would lift the top of my boxers up revealing what i had feared....I would then begin to panic at the thought of my falumptious body attracting those of the opposite sex. In my mind I would go over the possible ways to make the best of the situation. Such thoughts as WNBA dominance began to consume me..To be Continued....

Analyzing UT....


Although this image was rather hard to rhetorically analyze, I will do my best to take a stab at it. When viewing the picture I can immediately tell that the audience is UT students which are attending school and have a interests in music and entertainment. The ad is portrayed in a very cultural tone. It is in a modern language which appeals more to the youth. The picture of the man which, when transferring the image to paint in order to zoom in, appears to be holding a alcoholic beverage, makes the use of this disc exchange seem cool to college students. In that since it makes a movement of pathos through the way it appeals to our longing to be cool and accepted. The way the word "hookup" is used reinforces the cultural tones behind the image, helping to appeal to college students. The purpose of the picture is to persuade college students that it is beneficial to use their service for all their entertainment needs. Although i feel that there is a major need for music in someone's life and music is very relaxing in a sometimes hectic enviornment, I do not feel the image is rhetorically effective due to the lack of importance of the man in ad. It is kinda random and the guy has no real purpose therefore being a distraction.

Bailey

This past weekend i had to go to school all day on Friday , then a few of us went back to Nashville.... I stayed home and slept most of the time, but Saturday i did get twirked on at Graham. The ladies were plentiful,,,you should of seen this one girl makin' it talk on the dance floor. Overall it was pretty logit until the loss to UCLA... oh well stay up and hit me up when u get a chance.

Yo MOM....

....This weekend i left the campus friday after classes and road home with two rather annoying girls... i never thought the word "like" could be used as much in a conversation. Good thing i passed out in the back seat..
I awoke out front of the house and saw you and dad come to the door... It was very welcoming and i slept like a baby that night. Saturday night i went downtown to Graham and came home rather late. We had a great weekend together, then my friends and i left and came back to "ROCKY TOP." I was anxious to get back for the game on Monday night. We all went to Buffalo Wild Wings and watched the less than satisfactory showing against UCLA.
I am convenced our team had jet lag. I spent the night at North Carrick and went to class the next day.
