It Had to Come

Well, the end had to come sooner or later.

What I'm talking about is the Detroit Red Wings. They had just broken an NHL record for the highest winning streak at home with 23 wins. This can make any Detroiter or Red Wings fan extremely proud, of course. I know I am! Unfortunately, that streak had to come to an end yesterday. Against Vancouver. In a shoot-out.

The fact that we came so close to winning again but ended up losing in a shoot-out to a team that's right on our tail in the standings is disappointing, to say the least.

To tell the truth, I'm kind of diasppointed in Jimmy Howard. I hate to say it, but I am! While he was gone, Joey MacDonald did a very gone job in his place. He helped in the winning streak! Then, the two games Howard is back, the team loses. I know it's not all completely Jimmy's fault, but it just strikes me as odd that that would happen. What if Joey Mac stayed in net yesterday?

I also feel really bad for Jimmy, losing his two games back. But I know he'll come back from it, because he is an amazing goalie that's part of an amazing team. I have confidence that they'll pull off an exciting post season in their 21st straight playoff appearance (which is another thing to be proud of).

Oh and one last thing...

Darren Helm scores the first goal of the night
GO WINGS!

It's Dark.

I'm sitting in my living room. And it's dark.
I'm looking out the window. And it's dark.
Even with the light on. It's dark.
I'm going to get up and make hot chocolate. It's still dark.
I'm back from making hot chocolate. It got darker.
I'm looking at the hot chocolate. It's dark, so I can't see it that well.
Someone just texted me. Hey look! Light!
I texted him back. My phone went black.
It's dark again.


End.

Still Going Strong...Yet Very Lazy

Hello there friends.

Well, blogging for Writing Styles for the Media is done. But you know what?? Imma keep going. I like it. And I have something to write about today! Not just babbling about nonsense to get the right amount of blogs for the week. And the topic for today is.......the Forever Lazy!

Oh. My. God.

Remember when the Snuggie first came out?? I thought it was a joke! What's the big deal about a blanket with sleeves? Normal blankets work just fine! But apparently, society fell for the media's tricks. Either that, or they wanted to buy it because it was so stupid. Kind of like how some movies are so stupid, they're funny.

Is this some kind of new advertising technique?

Those bastards...

Anways, the point is, the Snuggie was the big thing. Now, they came out with the Forever Lazy. THE stupidest thing I've ever seen. Oh, I'm sorry, I mean, the most brilliant invention of the season. And I'm sure everyone will love it. Just look at it!

You can even unzip your buttocks area for when nature calls!

If this isn't a winner. I don't know what is...

What Did You Say?

HAPPY HALLOWEEN!


Now that that nonsense of a greeting is over, I have a fun and exciting activity for all who read this to do.


Are you ready??


You sure??


Okay! Well, here is what you are going to do. I am going to give you several things to say to yourself. But, you have to say it in a British accent. I LOVE doing this. I could talk in a British accent all day if I wanted to. The only problem is that I know I would be socially unaccepted if I did. Think about it. An American person like myself talking in a really bad British accent. Sure it'd be fun, but kind of annoying to the people that know me.


Anyways, here they are!


"Potentially problematic"
"Not to mention the pincers"
"We'll take the lot!"
"Squirrel"
"Hello, I would like a cup of tea"
"This class is ridiculous"
"All she wants to do is snog me!"


Have fun! I'm sure your lips will tingle with the spiciness of your conversations.


P.S. Hi Ms. Jablecki. The "This class is ridiculous" quote is from Harry Potter. I do not think that Writing Styles for the Media is ridiculous. I like it a lot!
That's all. Goodbye!

Blogging for the Sake of Blogging

HELLO THERE FRIENDS


I'm in a pretty good mood today.


It's Sunday, the day before Halloween, and I've been watching all the Halloween shizzle they have on TV. I don't know why, but it puts me in this good mood.


I, at this moment, am laying in my bed, under my blankets, with my heated sheets. First off, I have to say that heated sheets are the best invention since food. One cannot live without it. Second, MY FEET ARE SO WARM! Warm feet= happy Becca.


Just for funsies, I would like to share a video that I found while back roaming the great website that is know as YouTube. I find it funny, and hopefully you will too. Unfortunately it has nothing to do with any exciting current events, or any exciting thoughts for that matter! It is just plain enjoyable.


So here it is.

What Writing Styles for the Media Has Taught Me

HI.

I've been doing a lot of thinking lately, which a lot of people would say is really unusual for me. This is not necessarily true, but the point is that I've been doing a lot of thinking lately.

Just recently, our class has been talking about the different types of advertising there are out there in the world. Now, I absolutely love watching commercials. Weird, right? When everyone else changes the channel to see if something else is on, I'm the one that will sit there and watch the infomercial channel. My father thinks there's something wrong with my head for doing so.

Here's the story. I'm sitting on my couch, watching TV and minding my own business. Then, a commercial comes on. I caught myself evaluating every commercial that was aired. I'm here thinking to myself, "What has this class done to me?!" Then I got over the thought because my favorite commercial came on and I didn't want to miss it.

Here are still shots of some of my favorite commercials. Can you guess what they are?




Go watch some TV. Find your favorite commercial today!

Halloween Already??

Yo.


It's already the end of October? What? Where did time go??


That's right, folks, it's that time of the year again. Time to find a dorky costume and pass out candy to little children screaming "TRICK OR TREAT" in your face. I really shouldn't say anything about a dorky costume, though, because I plan on dressing like the Sundrop girl, no matter where I go. I might just stay dressed like her all day...


Anyways, it's time to get in the spirit of Halloween! Get it? Spirit? Ghost?
I made a funny.


Well, one of my most favorite things to watch that is Halloween related is, no, not Ghost Hunters (although I do watch the marathon on Halloween) but my one of my favorite episodes of Spongebob Squarepants: Shanghaied. It is a classic episode with some of the funniest and most memorable lines in the entire series.


I promise to post less about Spongebob after this, but I couldn't help myself.


Well, here it is!! Please, do enjoy.
