blog entry 10

The title essay "The Dangers Of Reality T.V" by Timothy sexton focused that reality tv is bad for many reasons. The author writes that reality shows mostly provide unwanted messages to the youth. Reality shows focused  "on competition, the value of image over ability, and the obsolescence of education." From my point of view how ever i prefer education rather than competition. We need knowledge to participate in competition. If we don't have knowledge than we can't participate in reality show like "who want to be millinoer". In this reality show they ask more about General Knowledge, Political etc. so how come that education is useless in reality show.
  Timothy mentions that reality T.v focused on competition and believe that competition is the main key of succeeded or main way to earn more money in short period of time.It is true that in competition judges or public who gave vote, they looks more on out-fit rather than ability. It seems to me that personal out-fit or image play more important role in reality shows rather than ability.
   As reality shows give more important on competition and image they keep message to the youth that "education is completely unnecessary to fulfill American dream." It seems to me that education is the main key for succeeded. Even though student life is full of stress and painful, always work on assignments, test, exam, research but believe me it is a golden life. life we spent in school is a valuable time for us. In school we get chance to meet with different types of people. we get chance to make friends, every day we get chance to learn new lesson. we have a wonderful teachers in school. But if we have guts, guts to get in reality show like "Fear Factor" we will easily earn more money at short period of time. And don't need to face stress and pain as we have to do in education. Reality shows try to convince the society to believe in power of reality shows. And if someone asked question or argue about education then it's just come out that "well..... hey, i think who wants to marry an idol survivor who danced with a skating celebrity named Gotti is on."
   The tittle essay "The Dangers of Reality TV" was intersecting, and came to know how reality shows  focused on competition rather than education.
   I am disagree with the author's point of view that "education is completely unnecessary to fulfill the american dream." we need education in every stage of our life. Education gives us knowledge and a degree which possible get a better jobs in future. Even though education is a long processed to get successed but the wealth we earn from education remain us forever specially in america. Without education life is like a person without eye, blind.
   Comparing these essay with my own life i always prefer to have a better education rather then participating in competition.
   My sister is doing her RNA program in Laguardia community college. From very beginning she gives more important to education. Every semester she gives her 100% as a result she get better result in her exam. I learn from her that education is more important in our life. It leads us in bright future. Through education we get a degree and eventually we will get better job in future. I notice that people who have a nursing degree they have a high income and additionally they get benefits in future. They have there own identity with respect. So keeping these thing in my mind i am focusing in my education even though it's my beginning and difficult i'm doing my best i don't want to step back.
  We always keep in mind that reality TV shows give us entertainment. They never provide us any kind of degree, so education play important role in our life.

  1. Hi Tsering,
    I enjoyed reading your essay. You did a good job of supporting your claim. I agree with your point of view and i think you did a good job of establishing reasons as to why you think education is very important. However i think you misunderstood the author's point of view, the author feels the same you do, in terms of the bad image reality tv shows for education.

    You gave a lot of great information supporting you claim.However, i noticed that you got off topic a little trying to explain your reason and evidence.
