Christmas movies!
I’ve been meaning to do a bunch of Christmas related posts like where the 12 days of Christmas comes from. Only the place I originally found that, coolquiz.com apparently shutdown down and some Catholic websites I tried copying and pasting it from x-ed oud after or while copying. I came to the conclusion to write about movies while finding the Movie Prancer on ABC Family and remembering a conver sation I had with my friend Ashley K. She told me she saw it in school one year and “didn’t care for it.” I did some thinking and thought I wouldn’t have really liked it in 4th or 5th grade. (Think of yourself all hyped up on sugar and dyeing to get out of school, this happened to me in 12th grade) But I Digress.
The rest of the world thinks you’re Crazy. In Prancer some Kids mad fun of Jessie and her dad told her to wake up and realize that Reindeer don’t fly. In polar express we don’t get an onscreen example of the world telling the main Character not to believe but he is Plagued with doubt.
Both movies however have charactars who believe with out Question. The girl, who is never named in Polar Express is filled with wonder andis filled with Spi4rit. Not just about Presents, but for the food and Family, the helping of others and the general feeling of the time. This is what seperates her and got her chosen to board and marked as a leader on her ticket.
My point is that this Felling and belief goes far beyond Santa and Flying Reign deer. Aslife goes on there is pressure to believe or not to believe whether or it’s a spiritualbelief, or just in the good of people. Both charactars tell us that there is good in the world and not everything can beexplained by Science and logic.
During the year many people tend to forget this. Multiple movies are here to remind us not just Christmas ones butthey are more likely and easier to spot. If you need a non Christmas example I suggest Bridge to TeraBithia or the Narnia series.
That’s all I have for now on this subject but I Plan and updating this often to work on my writing.

rise of facebook
While reading how facebook caught on and became more popular, it is apparent to the reader how the perspective of the author is bias. The author complements Zukerburg numerous times, but rarely does so for the boys who collaborated with him. Some other things that would make a reader believe the author has a strong tie to Harvard. Some of these are the statement that High school is all about building a strong resume. This maybe true for a majority of students entering any number of collages, but Harvard is so hard to get excepted in to, one must have an out standing résumé. Another theme repeated multiple times in both the novel and film is the “Harvard connections” and “men of Harvard” In the world of the students image is everything and who you know is important. From my experience this not true of other schools, and I do not know anyone who attends a school that is so image conscious.. I also do not agree with the two degree concept. College campuses are so big that I do not believe everyone is connected by only person. This maybe true for the schools with in a school , like we have at Rutgers. Or maybe this just a mentality the author has from attending or studying Harvard.
Other things I noticed while reading “the facebook effect” is how building the webpage benefited the boys. Mark Zukerburg was not a people person. After Popularity of his creation spread, he had to become better at giving interviews and press conferences. A person can take a class on public speaking but this not a skill that can really be taught in classes. After much hard work and thinking Zukerburg was able to develop this skill because it would effect his business. Also, the facebook was something Zukerburg was passionate about. When promoting something that matters, a person is more likely to be a better speaker than, if they were giving a topic selected at random. The roommates of Zukerburg also benefited from the creation of facebook. None of these boys went to school for business, but or computer programming. After being handpicked by Zukerburg, they each quickly learned their given job.
