Things I like: 
 
I love this cartoon because it makes me forget about my busy life, problems, and sadness. I also love monkeys, and learn a lot from this show.  
 
Love equals soccer; I been looking forward to play soccer at the intramurals but I haven't found out if it already started or not. And I'm hopping to get a job as a soccer coach. 
I'm not a fan of it but while watching Firefly I got into some other shows that are interesting and controversial. It's a great resource, specially because I just found some of my favorite cartoons in this app. 
 
I love YouTube because I can find latest hits, movies, episodes, and a lot more. And I can also find how to do (you name it). 
 
 Since the song Vivir Mi Vida (Live My Life)-by  Marc Anthony came out I listen to it at least once a day. This song makes me relax, think positive, and cherish my life with real facts; like the song says "why suffer if life is just like it is", "am going to enjoy life", this song has an awesome rhythm I even dance to it.

Firefly, what?

Firefly Genre:

I think that it's really difficult to find one genre for such weird and interesting show. In my opinion the genre that goes with it will be astronomy science and cultural. Astronomy science because of what I saw from the first episode things happened in another planet, space and they are on spaceships and they were wearing astronauts suits. And cultural because of the war they where in the beginning of the episode, you could see that the opponents have different culture, and different ideas which is the problem of why they are in war. Also they show different languages like Chinese, a Geisha like in the Japanese culture, a little of Western culture, and so on. In other words the show has a little bit of everything. 

Firefly is "Sci-Fi" it's literally a show that is focus on the future (years and years away). According to the creator of Firefly they got to such future by using a lot of big creations from technology, with the help of science fiction. In Firefly as I mentioned before you could see Asian, black people, white people, and more. That's why I think that Firefly actually sticks to its own genre, which includes all times, future, present, past and I believe it was just to crazy and controversial and that's why it got removed from Fox, as a television show.

Nerd-burger is an effective writer because she is able to grab the attention from everyone that sees the video even from non-consumers. I have never read a comic book nor was interested but now that I saw this video am willing to read a couple of them like "Sweet Tooth" just because of the passion that she presented with. She is dedicated to her comic books; she makes them very interesting just by the way she's talking about them and by her expressions. It was really awkward when she started crying at the development of her summary of her favorite comic book. The pictures at the side and the typing made the documentation video more attentive to me. The blogging genre and the genre of academic writing are similar in the sense that is has dedication, own opinion, and is knowledgeable. Blogging and genre of academic writing just keeps us all consumers attach to all, because we are been in the know of all information. The difference is that one is just more video and the other one is more literature and the similar is that both are just are interesting either watching it or reading. I believe that one can improve the other by the genre writing.

Three expectations that I have for class blogs:   

1. Please everyone do your HOMEWORK so that we can continue to            have Fridays off. Ã‰chenle ganas!  

2. Be nice by respecting each other’s ideas (Blogs)   

3. Be open minded by giving a lot of feedback
