I deleted my Facebook account in early September. I have always hated facebook and consider it one of the best decisions I have made in college. It was addicting, annoying, and in my case only caused problems. I loved and hated knowing what everyone was doing before I talked to them, but since the deletion enjoy finding out by talking to them much more then just glancing at their facebook page to find out about their weekend.
With my new exploring the internet class being the driving force behind this blog, and learning about social media, I decided last night to get into the Oscar buzz and watch "The Social Network."
It was awesome. I love Aaron Sorkin who wrote the screenplay and the movie really got me thinking into how smart and ambitious students at Harvard and other prestigious schools are. It then made me realize I should try harder in school, hence this portion of the overall assignment due Feb 2 being completed now and not an hour before class, a habit that has followed me all through college.
I think I will blog about other nominated films for the 2010 Academy Awards and eventually try to watch all of the Best Picture winners from years past.
I hope this is enough.
