My relationship with media is not so huge even though I opened my eyes in the world of advanced media. Like every other kid I was exposed with all eight types of mass media, but most of the time I interact with television and Internet.
Television besides entertainment gives me so much information, I like to watch different documentaries on television,news and other sports information. The thing I like about television is I can easily watch what is going on in my country through our news channels. I can easily get to know what is in in the fashion and what could happen next in my country. I am update with the help of television about my country. And it is part of my daily life.
Internet on the other hand I use almost everyday. I use it for my resaerch work, for downloading songs, to socialize with people, for news and for any other purpose which makes my life easier.The things I do not like on internet is playing games. Which is really addicting for some people and I don't get this why? I like to get new information and learn about new thing through it. It makes life easier in the sense of research work, which I do alot.
I wasn't so much into books except my course books until I read this book called Tell Me Your Dreams by Sydney Shelton. I found this book so intersting that I decided to take psychology as my major. So now anyone can guess that my exposure to books was pretty late. Now I like reading books but only fiction and some times history books related to kings and queens.
I watch movies but not that much. Most of the times movies create influence on people but not on me.I just watch movies for fun and to pass my time. I really like to watch Indian movies they are pretty fun to watch.And I don't like violent movies. I record songs in my ipod and in my cell phone besides that i do not have any interest in recording.
I used to listen radio back in my country Pakistan, and I was kind of addicted to it. Here in U.S.A I only listen to MPR and that is only if I am in my car. MPR is a pretty informative radio channel.
I usually don't read newspapers and magazines, because I get all news through television and Internet. I usually read news of Pakistan From Jung and Dawn through Internet. I watch Geo, ARY, Dawn, Express news channels. Magazines I only read when I get some extra time and I don't have any particular magazines to read. I don't like such magazines which makes gilrs more complexed about their diet and how they look.
To me television and internet is most important and interesting mass media and I would like to work in radio station in my own country. This is kind of my dream but I know I can not do it that is why I am doing psychology as a major and i will transfer to Berkely University
