Your Media Diet

When I analyzed what types of media I tend to lean towards in the 5-7 day study I noticed that I watched a lot of TV and get on facebook and other normally visited sites like espn.com, nba.com, youtube.com, santaclarabroncos.com. Some of the shows that I watch on a daily basis are Fresh Prince of Bel-Air and Sportscenter. Most of my time goes to video games though. I play nba 2k11 and fifa 2011 for pretty much the entire day that I am not in class or in practice. What this media diet says about me is that I like watching sports, comedy, and love to play video games. I think that other people around my age group are about the same way. I know a lot of the people that I hang out with do the same play a lot of video games and watch tons of tv, and stay up on the latest sites every day. My media diet might tell people that I am really not concerned about my academics. They would be wrong because that comes first, but with people looking from the outside and seeing me playing video games all of the time might think that is all I do. I always study first no matter what. I feel like I might want to lay off of the video games but I am not in the real world just yet and will live every minute of it until I am. Video games my age is pretty normal. I don't feel like my social location really has any effect on if I watch tv or if I play a video game. I do all of these things because I like to have fun, and those things that I do give me pleasure.
