My Media Summer

Films
Over the summer holidays i wasn't really that interested in films however when Indiana Jones and the temple of doom was on i just had to watch it, so there i was watching Indiana Jones save Willy Scott i thought to myself how amazing it would be to live in your own action packed film with all the brilliant stunts, and different locations.
Another of my favourite films is Beauty and the Beast I've always liked it because of all the emotion and how funny it is, but since watching it as a 16 year old i understand the plot better and i would even say i enjoy the film more as i have a better understanding of it.

Songs
I'm not normally that into popular music but when my mum insists on playing Capital FM at 7AM i cant help but wake up singing Cheryl Cole Under the sun.  So at this moment in time it is my most enjoyed song on Capital FM, this is because i can relate to the lyrics.
Most people my age don't really listen to old music but as both my mum and dad used to listen to it i still enjoy hearing it, for example i liked listening to UB40 Red red wine, i like the way it is sung and the lyrics are meaningful.  I personally think older music is better as songs today don't make much sense.
TV/Radio programs
I spend half my life watching TV and during the holiday i didn't get to watch a lot of it, but when i did get to watch it i enjoyed watching Holby City and Casualty, both programs are set in the same hospital just different floors.  The main reason i like watching this is because i know it isn't real and i find the content funny and there is usually different patients but they seem to fit in somewhere.
I also enjoyed watching Young Dracular, now even though this is on CBBC and aimed at 7-11's i still find it entertaining, i enjoy all vampire things and as Young Dracular is a family of vampires living undercover in a school (as much as i would love that to be the case with my school) the drama that goes on with vlad becoming the chosen one and his older sister, Ingrid wishing she had all the power.
Websites
Throughout the holidays i didn't really get a chance to go on the internet but when i did i mostly just stayed on youtube watching my favorite youtubers, i also spent a lot of time trying to find a job, for me getting a job was one of the most important things as it is a sign of independence.  I watch people on youtube because i hope that one day i too could make youtube video's, the people i watch on youtube aren't like me which is what i like it gives me a chance to see how other people are around the UK
Stories in the news
 I don't enjoy watching the news as it is always filmed with sad, depressing stories.  I was obsessed with the GCSE results as i was affected by them, i was so disheartened by it as i worked so hard and when i found out that they weren't going to do anything about it i wanted to know why, but i didn't get any answer.
I also hated hearing about Tia Sharpe as i couldn't believe that she went missing and what shocked me the most was how we didn't even see or hear from her mum until she was found dead.  How could anyone kill their own granddaughter.  The more i hear about kidnappings and stabbings the more i worry about the world.
