Today on the Fresh Prince of Bel-Air, Will gets a job. Will wanted to get money from Uncle Phil for a homecoming dance, but gets angry when Uncle Phil calls Will one of his own, just like Carlton. So Will goes and gets a job to pay for homecoming himself and to fell more like a man. The only person that knows of his job is Ashley. Ashley’s friend, Tina, has a crush on Carlton. When Will’s grades start to fall, Phil and Vivian confront Will. When Will tells them I got a job, Phillip doesn’t believe him and grounds. Before the Banks went out to celebrate Ashley’s achievement, Phil wanted to talk to Will, come to find out, his gone. Ashley takes them to Will job, where after being a rude waiter, shows them who his is, and works everything out with Phillip. Teenagers can feel how Will was feeling in that show. Most teenagers want to have a job, so they can have money to pay for their own things, so they can go shopping anytime they want and spend as much as they want. Most of the teenagers probably wont keep it a secret from their parents but, most teenagers would want a job to have their own money, instead of an allowances that may only pay few dollars a week. I know I wanted a job since I was 12 years old. Some parents might disagree with their teenagers getting a job and some may let. Like I said, most teenagers want a job so, they can pay their own way.

Movies are great. I enjoy watching movies. I like to watch a plethora of movies. Movies like; horror, comedy, action, mystery and suspense, and adventure. I really enjoy horror movies the most. Even though, I think most horror are not as scary as they use to be. Even though, I don’t watch movies as much as I used to before I still enjoy watching them. My favorite horror movie would the Halloween installments, just because I liked how he always came back to life, even though Jason and Freddy Krueger were the same thing. Back in the days when I didn’t have to work as much, I used to always go to the movies at least once a week with my friends and also rent a movie from the Blockbuster and watch it with my sister. One of my favorite comedy movies would be Borat, just because it was one hell of funny ass movies; I could not stop laughing. But like I said, I really enjoy watching scary, horror movies the most. I like the suspense. I like to watch mystery and suspense for that reason, the mystery and suspense. I like to guess who’s doing what and who’s killing whom. Movies are great to watch, I love watching them. I will always go to the movie theater if there is a movie that I want to watch. Sometimes I do miss watching a movie that I want to watch at the movie theater, but then I could just rent it when it comes out on DVD.

Today on the Fresh Prince of Bel-Air, Will and the Banks family take in an old friend surprisingly. A friend from back in the days, when Mr. and Mrs. Banks were fighting and protesting for civil rights and free speech and trying to make it better for blacks; shows up. When Will and Carlton’s teacher get fired, Will decides its time to take action and protest. Later, the Banks found out the FBI is looking for the friend for doing illegal things, and the FBI knew she was in town. They decide to help her and not rat her out. Well Mr. and Mrs. Banks, Will and Ashley do. Carlton and Hillary want to rat her out because of fear of jail time and the FBI. Will gets suspended from school for his actions on protesting to keep his teacher’s job. Mr. and Mrs. Banks get very upset when they found out about the suspension. When the FBI comes looking for her, they decide to tell them nothing, except she went somewhere that she didn’t go. Friends always help other friends in times like this. Maybe not for the same reason but friends and family always will be there to help and protect their friend. Friends always will take home a friend who got kicked of their house. The Banks were just trying to help their friend from getting in trouble. Like I said, any real friend would do that for any real friend. Friends always will help each other out.

This essay was different from the first essay. I had to write about unreal vs. real on TV dramas and shows. I talked about the differences in the Real World and Bam’s Unholy Union. I also talked about their similarities in the shows. This essay was a little bit easier to write because I got to talk about shows that I unusually have time to watch. The paper I think had lots of good points. I also think that I had some examples and thoughts in this essay. Throughout my essay I talked about how the Real World is real and that Bam’s Unholy Union is not real. The reason was because Bam’s Unholy Union had people doing crazy stunts, which I thought, wouldn’t happen if they weren’t getting paid. And the Real World was real because it had random people in a house, and they just act like they do at home. Even though the creators pick who they want on purpose to create all that juicy drama that the viewers love. The cast members are chosen like that so that they can do something stupid on TV, like a fight, say something racist, or something that bother somebody else. On Bam’s Unholy Union he and friends do stupid stunts, but who would do them if they weren’t getting paid. On Bam’s Unholy Union, he is getting married, Bam, and he is not doing any of the wedding assignments, his fiancé is. The paper brings out a lot of great points.

Today on the Fresh Prince of Bel-Air, Will gets Hillary out. He tricks some of Hillary’s dimwit friends in to telling him that Hillary has dropped out of college, three months ago to be exact, and decides to use it to his advantage because he got grounded for a month because of her. Will makes Hillary his personal slave. When Hillary decides to tell Carlton about it, he does the same, until she cracks and tells her parents. But Will was never going to tell on Hillary. This kind of stuff happens all the time. It may not happen exactly how it happened on the show but it happens. Brothers and or sisters always do keep secrets away from their parents and sometimes when its really big news, they might blackmail them. Friends do the same thing also. Friends, family always like to keep secrets from other people, they might act liked they are going to tell someone about, but they don’t, its just to mess with your head. When your friend tells you a big secret or something he doesn’t want somebody else know. When your brother or sister tell you what happen on his date or what he or she did back then when they were younger. Secrets are kept with everyone to make in life. Your boss may not like or like your work but he or she might keep you and make you do all the bad work and act all nice to you in your face and then talk behind your to other people.

In the reading, I read about how it’s hard for some people to “come out of the closet.” By that I mean coming out and saying that you’re gay or a lesbian. And most people get mocked and laughed at for being that way. Ellen DeGeneres had a show called, Ellen, after she came out, her rating fell. She was made fun of and mocked on all the late night shows and TV parody shows. When the show Friends aired it had two lesbians with a kid. They were mocked on the show, because they both breast feeding the kid and the others just looked at them as they were doing the wrong thing. The ratings stayed good because the two girls were being made fun of in the show, they were seen as doing the wrong thing in their relationship. On another TV show, Will and Grace, it has two guy and girl. Both the guys are gay, but one of them is out of closet gay and like a girl gay. The other one is more of straight gay and his best friend is a straight girl. They both go shopping together and talk about guys. This show showed both types of the homosexuality. I think that now and days, being gay is much of big deal as it was back in the day. I think that more people are open to it and more used it. But there are people and always will be people who don’t accept them as with other issues.
