Chris Crocker - Pretty People Pride!
"I'll be an ugly **** down to the ground if I see her hatin on a Pretty *****!"
"I'm selfish, impatient and a little insecure. I make mistakes, I am out of control and at times hard to handle. But if you can't handle me at my worst, then you sure as hell don't deserve me at my best."
"I believe that everything happens for a reason. People change so that you can learn to let go, things go wrong so that you appreciate them when they're right, you believe lies so you eventually learn to trust no one but yourself, and sometimes good things fall apart so better things can fall together."
"Imperfection is beauty, madness is genius and it's better to be absolutely ridiculous than absolutely boring."
"A wise girl kisses but doesn't love, listens but doesn't believe, and leaves before she is left."
"I am good, but not an angel. I do sin, but I am not the devil. I am just a small girl in a big world trying to find someone to love."
"It's better to be unhappy alone than unhappy with someone."
"If you're gonna be two-faced at least make one of them pretty."
"I don't mind living in a man's world, as long as I can be a woman in it."
"Beneath the makeup and behind the smile I am just a girl who wishes for the world."
"She was a girl who knew how to be happy even when she was sad. And that’s important—you know."
"We are all of us stars, and we deserve to twinkle."
"Success makes so many people hate you. I wish it wasn't that way. It would be wonderful to enjoy success without seeing envy in the eyes of those around you."
"You never know what life is like, until you have lived it."

Monica - Love All Over Me
Love is the sweetest thing you can give to another person. iLove because Christ told me to Love others like he loved the church!
Love is both an action and a feeling. The action of love generates a blissful feeling called by the same name. When the action stops, the blissful feeling is replaced with pain. Every person is capable of great love (and its opposite, fear, which generates all painful emotions such as hate, greed and jealousy).

My Internship
This is a summary of the Program I got accepted to! Media in Ghana, I'll have an Advertising internship in Ghana for 6 weeks. YAY me!!
About the Program
Media in Ghana
The University of Oregon’s Journalism and Communication in Ghana program, directed by Prof. Leslie Steeves with on-site assistance from Dr. Michael Williams, can accommodate up to twelve students each summer. The program is six weeks long, usually spanning the last week in June through July. Students take two four-credit courses: Media in Ghana and Journalism Internship. Internships are for four weeks, full-time. Weekend sightseeing fieldtrips to Cape Coast (location of historic castles used in the trans-Atlantic slave trade) and Kumasi (center of the Ashanti Kingdom) are also included.
History: Over the past two decades, Ghana has been an increasingly popular destination for both study abroad and tourism. Ghana’s relative political stability, emerging economy, growing media presence, faculty resources at the University of Ghana’s School of Communication Studies (SCS), and widespread use of English as the national language makes it an excellent study abroad site for U.S. journalism students. Ghana’s historic role in the slave trade and its prominence in African-American efforts to rebuild links to Africa also add interest.
The program is modeled after one initiated in 1999 by Professor Adrienne Rivers, then at the University of Kansas. In 2001 the University of Oregon’s School of Journalism and Communication (SOJC) began contributing students to KU’s Summer Media Institute in Ghana. Two UO students participated in 2001 and six in 2002. In 2004 the University of Oregon began its own program. This is the first UO study abroad program specifically for Journalism students.
Curriculum. The program offers two courses of four term-credits each: J410, Media in Ghana (fulfills a breadth requirement), and J404, Journalism Internship (fulfills elective credit). The two courses are integrated, as preparation for the internship experience requires learning about Ghana and its larger media context. The Media in Ghana course requires assignments that may be done in conjunction with the internship.
Media in Ghana begins in the spring term preceding travel to Ghana with weekly meetings, readings and oral reports. Reading topics cover the political-economic and cultural history of Ghana, images of Africa in U.S. media, the impact of colonial and post-colonial influence on African media, and Ghana’s media history, from indigenous forms to the Internet and the changing balance between state- and privately-owned media. Students also go on-line to experience Ghanaian media first-hand. During their first week in the country, the students attend lectures by University of Ghana, School of Communication Studies (SCS) faculty. Assignments due at the end of the program include a daily media log and a research paper.
Student internships are five weeks and full time, following orientation week. Internships usually are matched with students according to their major: news editorial, magazine, electronic media, advertising or public relations. Prior internship placements have included the following:
Newspapers: The Daily Graphic; Ghanaian Times; Accra Daily Mail; The Statesman; The Free Press; The Chronicle; Business and Financial Times; Public Agenda; Crusading Guide
Development Communication and Public Relations: The Ghana Social Marketing Foundation; The Media Foundation for West Africa; Abantu for Development.
Television: GTV (of the Ghana Broadcasting Corporation); TV3; TV Africa; Metro TV.
Radio: Peace FM; Radio Univers; Choice FM.
Advertising: Karrington Advertising; Lentis Advertising; Origin 8 Advertising; Orakle Advertising.

Earl and Tiger Woods Nike Commercial Parody
Teeona Wilson replied:
The strategy used is resonance. This commercial is using his scandals to try and turn it into a positive stored image and show he’s learned from it and standing up and dealing with it. This ad is targetting audiences who are aware of his scandal, people who feed off of juicy stories by the media, and also those who like to stay in touch with celebrity gossip. I think that this ad benefits Nike because at the same time that they are sponsoring him, they are trying to show others that his actions weren’t conducive to the image that Nike is trying to uphold. We can’t control others actions, but we can reassure our audience that they are not condoning his actions but trying to possibly teach him a lesson. I’d never heard Tiger’s Fathers voice but apparently, they are trying to use that to capture the audience as well.

UbyKotex: So Obnoxious
Teeona replied:
When I first saw this ad on tv, I thought to myself, is she serious? No one wants to be her, She’s so cocky and irritating. But then as the commercial ended I realized it was supposed to be an obnoxious commercial and it kind of made me want to go buy those tampons. In lecture today, we talked about how it takes us 3secs to realize whether we want to continue watching or turn the channel. I always like to watch this commercial because something else pops out at me and i feel like i catch something new worthwhile. I never used to think tampon commercials were annoying, I kind of think the mother nature commercials are humorous. But this tampon ad is annoying.
