Power Jam


 I really do not like following along with the Power Jam movie in P.E class. I personally would rather be playing basketball with the boys in the gym. Instead, all the girls have to go into the smelly wrestling room and do Power Jam. I think that its really pointless to do it because your not doing anything except punching the air. We would be getting more exercise if we could play basketball in the gym. Also, most of the girls do not even participate in it. So i really hate doing these Power Jam videos. They are a waste of time and energy.

Obama

 The inaugural events of the past week were very special. They were more special than the past inaugural events because it is Americas firs Bi-racial president. Since being the first Bi-racial president everyone is in awe and has high hopes that President Obama will help fix the economy and help end the war with Iraq. I think that Obama was promised he would do a lot for our country, but former President Bush said the same thing when he was elected. We all know what Bush did for America. So I dont think it is right that all the people are praising Obama because he hasn't done anything to prove to us he will make these changes except for getting elected. With that being said , I do have hopes for Obama to fix our country but im not going to get to excited about him just yet.

Golden Globe Awards

The 2009 Golden Globe Awards were very interesting this year. Many deserving actors and actress were awarded. Such as Heath Ledger in his role of the Joker in "The Dark Knight". Also Kate Winslet had two Golden Globes. She won the Best Actress Award in her role in "Revolutionary Road." Also she was awarded Best Actress in a Supporting Role for " The Reader."  The best Motion Picture Award went to the movie , Slumdog Millionaire. The other nominees were The Curious Case of Benjamin Button, Frost/Nixon, The Reader, and Revolutionary Road. In my opinion I think that The Curious Case Of Benjamin Button should have  won. The actors in it did great and they really perceived the movie well. All in all the I think that the Gloden Globe Awards was a success because all of the right Actors won the awards they deserved.
