The impact of media in the society. How does media affect our society? It is clearly stated in the book that every aspect of media has been used to influence the society. How? Well, “The mass media in America today are ubiquitous – they are everywhere.” (Biagi, 1990, p. 3). It not only America but around the world.

Damn. I had my examination on Philippine Constitution and Communication Theory and I say that my exams are quite hard. Plus the Quiz on my Retorika (Filipino) subject which is pain because I don’t know most of the idioms in it. I really, really hate idioms. They bug me all the time. It’s kind of disappointing because you made the best you can and still can’t achieve it.

Isn’t it surprising that I have an interest in Astronomy? I haven’t done this before. Though everybody is willing to learn from Astronomy but not all don’t care about it. This interest me very much because of a particular topic. There has been a sighting of “Planet X” and there are a lot of Youtube videos that discloses this particular planet. Though these are videos, I really wanted to formulate or research it on my own way.

The whole day, we had our Humanities Sports Day. I was very hyper-active though I lack sleep. I was waiting for the basketball game and ball games to start. It was tense you know. I felt nervous because it’s my first time to play for a Sports Day. Anyway, when the basketball started, we were in a handicap. We are in the disadvantage zone. Why? First of all, we don’t have any reserve.

I hate this day. Due to the fact that I told everybody that I met somebody that I became close to the group and now it triggers this chain reaction. I really hate this damn people who acts as if they are good friends in front and if you turn back, you are back stabbed on or being picked on and being putted down and such things like that.
