She won countless awards including favorite country album, favorite female country artist, favorite adult contemporary artist, favorite female pop/rock artist, and of course the prestigeous ENTERTAINER OF THE YEAR AWARD!!! Go Taylor! The late Michael Jackson was also the winner of several categories including favorite pop/rock male artist, favorite pop/rock album, favorite soul/rhythm and blues males artist, and favorite soul/rhythm and blues album. Other winners included Jay-Z, Keith Urban, The Black Eyed Peas, Rascal Flatts, Beyonce, Aventura, Green Day, Mary Mary, Gloriana, and the Twilight soundtrack.

Here is my video for our project! Unfortunately my voice overs didn't transfer over when I burned my DVD for some reason, so I'm kind of disappointed, but here is my script so you can see where the voice overs are supposed to go. Fell free to give me feedback and let me know how you feel about parking at CSUF.


SCRIPT:


(V/O)

Students at Cal State Fullerton are tired of paying for parking only to find themselves circling lots to find none.

Parking passes cost nearly 200 dollars at Cal State Fullerton. You would think that with the steep price, parking wouldn’t be a problem. But the reality of the situation is quite the opposite.

(Anchor)

Parking at csuf has always been an issue for students but with the closing of 2000 spots last semester frustrations are at an all time high. I spoke to a few students who had to parking 15 or 30 minute lots praying they didn’t get a ticket, just to make it to class on time.

(Interview a few students on the topic).

(V/O)

But there is a solution if you are in a time crunch to get to class. Valet parking is offered in lot A.

For every one space available, the campus sells 8 parking passes. But a new parking structure that will hold 1,500 spaces is under construction and the students of Cal State Fullerton can not wait to use it.

khloe kardashian blogs too!

So I was browsing the Internet and was delighted to stumble across newlywed, Khloe Kardashian's blog site. It is filled with all kinds of gossip including what she is up to, her day to day life, her jewelry line, pictures, etc. For example she has a couple blogs that she recently posted on NOH8 and pictures she has taken as ad campaigns for the organization. (The organization is aimed at overturning Proposition 8 and helping gay rights). Khloe's blog is truly entertaining and I think it is great she keeps her fans informed about what is going on in her life.

Twitter

One of my favorite ways of self expression, and gossip is through tweeting on the website Twitter. Over the last six months Twitter has gained popularity. Even my mom is addicted. It is basically a website where you post what you are doing, where you are, thoughts, quotes, or whatever you want to say that is under 160 characters. I tweet from my phone several times a day. My friends think I'm ridiculous because if something funny happens when we hang out I always say "I have to tweet about this!" It seems so silly but it is so fun. My friend and i were saying the other day that it's pretty cool because we feel like we have documented lots of things that happened since summer on Twitter, so it's fun to reread them.

michael jackson top videos

So the other day I was watching Vh1 and they were airing Michael Jackson's top 10 videos of all time. Being a HUGE Michael fan, I had to watch. Some of his tops included Smooth Criminal, Beat It (they placed it at number 6...personally I think it's more of a number 2), Thriller (OF COURSE!), and Black and White. There were several others but those are some of my favorites. I still can't believe Michael died. I miss the King of Pop and plan to see the movie that is out about him sometime this week.
