So this week the only media I even took the time to look at so far has been the show I am coding for our research project. I watched Modern Family, and actually got to know a bit of the story line because I watched so many episodes. I hadn't really seen the show before, but to be honest it isn't my favorite (sorry to you die hard fans). But I realized something else from sitting down and watching TV for two hours, that my brain turns into goo. And then you look like this...
I hate watching TV that long. A movie that has one straight story line once in a while is fine. But watching the same show for two hours is so ridiculous. By the end my brain was screaming for a book! I felt tired, and my head felt cloudy. I'm so glad i'm busy with school so I'm not tempted to waste my days in front of a box. But hey at least the coding is going well!
Agreed! I dont even want to have cable/TV really. Just something to watch movies on. I can watch the news or a certain show or something online if I want to but so much more time is wasted when you are just watching show after show on TV!
ReplyDeletehah amen to that sister friend! i just finished my coding and it was long. but more importantly i realized that a media saturated life feels like one i haven't accomplished anything in. i just feel like i've done nothing when i watch TV. i like movies, but i feel like TV is lame. haha but congrats to you for getting your coding done. :)
ReplyDeleteI had to listen to country music for mine. All they sang about was trucks... talk about brain mush :)
