14.Final Post
This is the point which our story with eng 101 ends. This is my last obligated post but i will sure continiue publishing post about my daily life. Before Sonja's insist on creating a blog, (this part is embarrassing) i just heard that there was something called blogspot and some mysterious people blogging. Now i understand how pioneer thing is it, there are millions of blogs and it is possible to reach everybodys ideas, researches and guides which can be very helpfull. It is also a kind of a journal that will stay as a memory in history part from individual. This was the greatest value i have gained this semester. Thanks to Sonja
13. Exam
We had our Eng 101 exam yesterday, questions wasn't suprising at all they could be guessed easily as we all talk about these topics. My writing skill isn't perfect, i admit it but it is improving. Time was a problem, 75 minutes was short for 600 words essay. However i dont agree with some points about this gender and media but as a professional student i write what i should write and what is expected from me. I am really hoping to get a great grade because i try very hard to combine the information whic i know about the topics.

12. Romeo and Juliet
I am really bored of gender issues which we look into in this semester. If we look at history there is no woman dig into the mountains to reach her lover or there is no woman defy to god's will for a man. If you remember these stories are not far from your memories. Today some movements ask for equality in life between men and women. It is always equal between men and women even before the time we know. Ancients states were ruled by king and queen equally and even some states were just ruled by women. But if we see today women want the perfect men; rich, sexy, strong, loyal and so on. They want loyal but they also want to feel that men are so pricious that they could be left alone. This centuary ruins everything it leans on. It ruined men, women and their relationships and people who are taking the lead in this movement wants profit as every single organism in capitalist order.
11. Tough Guise
Media and popular culture is overrated by the influence on male behaviour. It is sure that male body and tools that men use is changed by influence over media but we should not forget that violence is caused because of hormones and genes. In Somalia there is no media or advertisement but people are killing each other on streets cutting arms off and raping even men. Before modern era wars were far more brutal than todays professional long ranged wars. 1 centuary ago men could offically made duels between them just because of a women.
These documentaries captured today is exaggerating masculanity, media, commercials, women and daily life. If you watch it skipping, you will always hear, masculanity, media, Tv, advertisement, violence and men. It is kind of ridiculous.

10. The Full Monty
Last week we have watched a presentation about The Full Monty. Movie is made by post modern masculanity concern. It is about men who are very vulnurable because they have issues about their bodies and economic status. It is why this semester we examined this movie in our course i think. Presentation was good, gave us a lot of details about movie but there are some flaws too. For an example some group member talked longer than other but overally it was good. They have examined movie from language to location and it was smart, brief and beneficial especially before watching the movie.
9. 2010

Finally 2009 is over and i have great expectaions from it. Last 2 year was not great for me but now i feel happy and i have hope for my entire life. We had celebrated new year with our friends and had a great fun. For a very long time i felt like i am jammed but 2010 bring me i kind of freedom that i could not understand. New year will bring lots of changes but they all going to be magnificent i hope.
8.Oral Presentation
Last week we had finished our oral presentation, it was about The Truman Show. Truman Show is a great movie which can't be examined just like a movie, there are lots of symbols and ideas given to audience. We have wanted to give a brief look at Truman Show and give symbols to our classmates. We prepared a great slide show to get attention and tried to reveal clues in the movie. Unfortunately one of our group member had a little shock while representing and it was kind of a emberassing moment for our group. Regarless, we managed out.
