Wednesday in class was somewhat painful.  Actually no, it was painful.  Because I would rather jump in front of a moving Amtrak train than watch Twilight.  Vampire Diaries was actually not as bad as I thought it would be (still not good.)  But yeah that is what we did Wednesday.  I did however enjoy writing a fairy tale, that was pretty fun.  Mine was about a Princess named Mia getting saved by a guy named Alexander.  It was pretty good, like academy award winning.  Pretty sure they need to make a movie out of it.  But that is all for this week.    

Again, not much to write about this week.  We did not have class again Monday due to conferences and such but we did have class Wednesday.  Changing my paper topic was actually pretty beneficial to me.  I was able to get a lot more sources for my topic and was able to stand behind my topic stronger because of the availability of more information.  My peer review went pretty good, I jsut need to get more sources and establish a better thesis.  I also need to use more in text citations in my paper.  

Well, I really don’t know what to say on this blog post since we really haven’t had class.  I’ve decided to change my topic on my Analysis.  Instead of doing Recovery by Eminem I’ve decided to analyze a single song by Eminem called “White America.”  I feel like this will also be an interesting topic and I will have a easier time finding more credible sources for my information.  So I have to re-do my annotated bibliography and also type up my rough draft for class on Wednesday .    

Thesis Statement

In 2010, Eminem released his 12^th album titled “Recovery” which ended up going 4x Platinum.  But there is also something special about this album.  Eminem has been known to place subliminal disses into his songs.  This means, that if you fully understand what exactly he is talking about, he is actually dissing other rappers.  If you really look into some of the lines in the songs, you will find many of these messages that are in this album.  These lines are significant because it makes fun of other rappers, especially Lil Wayne.  These lines are also significant because these lines alter the way that these songs can be listened.  It makes listening to the songs more enjoyable.  Eminem had different reasons for each thing he said so in order to understand each subliminal diss the entire album needs to be analyzed.

I will attempt to put this past week into at least 100 words seeing as it was a little short. Unfortunately Mickey’s car broke down so we did not have class on Monday. I’m guessing a lot of the work we had Wednesday was supposed to be on Monday. Wednesday we got to start a group poster which actually was kind of fun.  Except for when I got the perfect article for our poster but I couldn’t use it because it was from Wikipedia.  Oh well, I’m pretty sure our poster project is going to be amazing anyways.

This week in class was interesting.  This week was interesting all thanks to Carrie.  That was probably the weirdest movie I have ever seen in the history of forever.  Especially the first 15 minutes of the movie.  Also, the movie never came out and said specifically that she was telekinetic, so I was mad that stuff was flying around places for no reason until I caught on.  Te part of the movie I really liked though was when everyone in the gym gets trapped, killed and burned.  That was intense. But the ending of the movie was weird because I am not sure why the house just randomly fell apart and caught on fire.  That is still a mystery.
