To begin, six months from now I can see myself almost three-fourths of the way done with my bachelor’s degree at the University of Oklahoma. It will be September and I will be back in school for my senior year. I hope to have an internship during the year in Oklahoma City. I would like to have a boyfriend by then, but I tend to be picky so that might have to wait until after graduation when I have time for this. I can see six months from now will be a very anxious time in my life because I will be so ready to graduate by then. I feel like I will be living the same kind of life that I am now, but I will just be a little older and a little more ready to be out of Norman living in the real world.
In 3-5 years from now I will for sure be graduated from the University of Oklahoma with a bachelor’s degree in Public Relations. I would hope to be attending law school and be on the brink of graduating so that I would have a law degree on top of my bachelor’s degree. If law school falls through, I hope to be a new resident of NYC and offered a job at a magazine like Vanity Fair or at an event planning company of some sort.
It is hard to think about what will happen in 10 years and incredibly difficult to place myself 20 years from now and how much my life will have changed. In 10 years I will be 31 years old and most likely I will, if things go according to plan, I will have graduated and hopefully also graduated from law school. I also hope to be living in Manhattan with my husband and if I have anything to do with it, I would love to have at least one child. My plan is to be married by the time I’m 28 and have a child by at least 30 so that I will be financially stable and ready to start a family. I want to have a job either working for a Conde Nast magazine or to be working in law firm in NYC as a family attorney or doing commercial law. If there were not a child in my future, I would love for my husband and me to travel throughout Europe by the time I’m 35.
Twenty years from now I will be 41 and by then I hope to be running my own public relations event planning company and doing pro bono law work on the side just for something extra to do. My child, if I have one, will be 11 by then and hopefully we will be living in the Upper East Side of NYC so he or she will attend a preparatory school. I can see my family living a very fast paced life, but also there will be plenty of down time so that we are a close- knit family. By the time I’m 41 I want to have at least 3 different homes including one in Manhattan, another in Tulsa, Oklahoma, and the other in Vail or Aspen.
This would be my hypothetical life, but I know that life is very unpredictable and can lead you in many different directions causing plans to change.

**Race and Gender Stereotypes in the Media**
Here are my findings from the last couple of days!
2-19-09 7:55 p.m.
Friend’s apartment- Crimson Park
Tropic Thunder Movie
Scene with Robert Downey Jr. trying to act like a black man
Racial Stereotype
2-20-09 6 p.m.
Personal Conversation with my roommate Marisha at Pad Thai
We discussed why Asians are almost never the lead parts in movies or television shows. Asians are always stereotyped as the very intelligent, nerdy characters.
Racial Stereotype
2-21-09 4:30 p.m.
Friend’s apartment- Crimson Park
Deception- movie
The main character Wyatt Bose basically rapes his girlfriend. Because his character is all ready very dominating, I believe he was trying to show his power over her.
Gender Stereotype
2-24-09 5:45 p.m.
A shirtless Hispanic man was walking down the shirt and I observed a woman actually pull her purse closer to her as he walked towards her as if she thought he was going to rob her.
Outside by Gaylord Hall
Racial Stereotype/Assumption
2-24-09 8:30 p.m.
I was at Wal-mart and I actually watched a Caucasian Wal-mart employee suspiciously watch an African American couple look at movies in the movie section.
601 12TH Avenue N.E.- Wal-mart Location
Racial Stereotype/Assumption
2-25-09 4:23 p.m.- MTV Network
Britney Spears Fantasy perfume commercial
-The commercial actually states the man as the “hunter” and the woman was the fragile “goddess”.
Gender Stereotype
2-19-09
PR Research Class discussion TR 4:30-5:45
We discussed how there are more women than men that graduate with a public relations major, but it still seems that more men than women are top PR executives.
-It makes me feel like people who are hiring for these companies feel like they need to hire men for executive jobs because they are more capable of doing the job, and obviously this is completely not true.
Gender Stereotype
2-23-09
The Bachelor Mondays 8-9 p.m. on ABC
The bachelor is seen as a man looking for love, while many believe the women who try to compete for his love are either desperate or slutty because they are sharing him with many women
Gender Stereotype
2-23-09
The OU Law School
Race, Gender and Media on Mondays 6-8:50 p.m.
Took a tour of the Law School with the dean of students and before even going I thought the dean would be male and didn’t for a second think it would be a female. Secondly, I thought he would be a white male and Dean Evans is a black male.
Gender Assumption/ and Racial Assumption
2-25-09
Daily 10 on the E channel at 6 p.m.
The show hosts played a clip of a guy who discussed ads where white people rap to sell their products and how it can be racially offensive to some people and funny to others. The reason behind the segment is due to the fact that more people have been rapping in advertisements recently.
Racial Stereotype/Assumption
2-26-09
The View on ABC at 11a.m.
I feel like this show stereotypes women as just big complainers who have too many opinions on "mostly" not so serious topics. I feel like it makes women look bad, but this is just MY opinion.
Gender Stereotype
Reflection--
I can honestly say this was a very educational assignment for me because I realized things that I normally wouldn't even let phase me. I knew that there was a lot of stereotyping in the media, but when I'm just watching it without having to do an assignment about tracking it, I didn't realize the extent to which stereotyping dominates media outlets. I was in no way surprised with how much I saw and I came away from this assignment not wanting to watch television as much as I usually do. The day that I was walking down the street by Gaylord and noticed the woman pulling her purse closer to her as the shirtless Mexican man walked by, I was disturbed as to how our community automatically judges people just because of the stereotypes that they are feed to by the media daily. This man could have been a guy that just took a jog and got hot so he took his shirt off and just because the guy looked a little rough the woman all ready categorized him as as dirty Mexican who might swipe her purse. The sad thing is, I have noticed myself doing the same kind of stereotyping before. I remember I was in a really bad part of town before and I locked my doors and didn't feel safe in any way because I was by myself at night in a well-known bad part of town. Nothing happened, but I automatically took the precautions that something could have happened.
When I was watching that Britney Spears commercial, which I have seen a million times before, I never noticed how they describe the girl as so innocent and goddess like and the male was a hunter and very tough looking. It is true how the media stereotypes the male and female personas. I definitely see how the constant stereotyping that the media does has a great affect on the representation of ethnic groups and gender. I, myself, noticed that I have stereotyped people by the part of town that they live in. This is wrong and I know it, but because of what people have told me as I have grown up and the things that the media have shown me, I formed preconceptions about people.
Obviously, stereotyping is never going to end, but there are ways that we can make them less effective. My generation is the first step to stopping the stereotypes from affecting our future children the way we have been affected and the way that our parents and grandparents were as well. From my different findings, it feels like I found way more gender stereotypes and assumptions than I did racial stereotypes. Another thing that seems interesting to me that in our RGM class is that the girl to guy ratio is about 7:1. I wonder why more guys are not enrolling in this kind of class? Maybe because they aren't as interested in the topics we cover? Also, I also wonder in comparison to our class what the girl to guy ratio is in a class like Sport Public Relations? I bet I could all ready guess that there are probably more guys than girls. This is an example of me stereotyping just because guys are usually more inclined to enjoy learning about sports. I also wish that there were more women sportscasters on ESPN, but it is definitely a guy dominated channel and I don't think that will ever really change. I feel like from now on always going to notice stereotypes when I'm watching TV and movies. That is all for this week! I hope you all have a great weekend!!

Big XII Universities and Race-based Admissions
Here is what I found!
1)University of Kansas- ethnic background doesn't affect your admission-- it is optional
2) University of Colorado-ethic background optional
3) University of Missouri- gender/ethnicity/multiracial is optional
4)University of Texas (Austin)- ethnic background was completely optional, this goes for every other Texas university too
5)Kansas State University- ethnic background information was required
6)Oklahoma State University- it allowed for gender, ethnicity and tribal affiliation to be optional
I think it is smart for the university to make ethnicity and gender optional for the student and makes more people willing to apply.

Tim Wise and the idea of "privilege"...
Hey guys! So Tim Wise seems like a very controversial man, the kind you either love or hate. As for privilege, I think it is very real is our society and before the video and seeing Tim talk about everything, I really had never thought about it before. I honestly think it is so unreal that in our day and age, white people can automatically be looked at as privileged just because of the color of their skin. As Tim said, most of us are completely unaware of the idea of "privilege" because it is what we are given without ever really knowing. Someone is would be titled as "privileged" is not always a racist or prejudice person. Caucasian people get their wealth from their families either all ready being wealthy or through inheritance, while minorities have to work hard to get to the status of what people other people don't even realize they have. I think that our society is just so oblivious to the world around them half the time, that people, maybe in high school, should get more education about this whole theory.
Media is the central source of where we get our pre-conceived ideas of race and gender. They are typically the ones that put the stereotypes in our heads. The thing that makes me so angry about media portrayal of race, usually African Americans, is that when they go out to get an interview they always interview the guy that looks like he came straight out of the "hood." So then we they show that interview on television everyone tends to believe that is what all African American people are like and this is completely false in every single way. Every single friend of mine that is a minority or of a different skin color is educated, comes from a great family, and dresses just like any other person walking down the street. The same goes for the media in Oklahoma, for instance, when a tornado hits a town in Oklahoma a reporter goes out and finds the most white trash, unintelligent person they can find. When people from other states see these interviews they come up with the stereotype that people from Oklahoma are low class, unintelligent people and obviously this isn't true. There might be a fair share of people like that, but it doesn't count for all Oklahomans.
The one drop rule totally applies to society today because even President Obama is considered fully black when he is both black and white. I have a friend that is half Asian and half white and everyone always asks her where she came from, and normally she just tells them her home state.
As for examples of privilege in every day experiences here is a list of what I have found:
1) People look at minorities in nice cars differently than they do of people who are white
2) Not many people of other races besides white are top executives or managers of huge corporations
3) I see more people of other races being pulled over by police officers lately than people who are white
4) People of other races who pay with large amounts of money or a black American Express are looked at differently as if they were questionable.
5) People on the front page of the newspaper are usually white unless it is President Barack Obama and his family
6) People of the caucasian background can worry about racism but know deep down inside that they probably aren't being looked at differently for the color of their skin.
7)The people that live around a household of white people never try to make them feel unwelcome
8) Lastly, white people are normally never asked where they are from unless people are wondering why they have a different accent
Refection:
The thing with making people more aware of white privilege is that people need to WANT to be informed and usually people don't really care to be informed. When people have all ready make their mind up on an idea or theory, they are pretty hard to persuade otherwise. I had no idea about white privilege just, maybe because I'm a caucasian woman and never thought about, and also because I was never educated about it. I think that it should be in the high school curriculum to educate students about this because otherwise it is taken for granted. The American youth are going to be more persuadable than older adults because as students, and mostly college students, we are more willing to consider all different kinds of point of views and theories without judging like an older person would. I feel like people in states other than those that are Southern would be very open to learning about this topic. The reason being is that Southern states are still very racist for some reason, and people up North like in New York City are very used to a wide variety of minorities,cultures, and situations and would be more open to learning about white privilege and how it affects them. I hate to say it, but it seems like Oklahoma is still very racist and it kills me to think that because I have lived here my whole life.

The Grammy's are so predictable!
Hello again! So I watched the Grammy's last night and was definitely not surprised that Coldplay stole the show. I was hoping that the awards would go out to a wider variety of people, but I feel like award shows are always so biased. As for the whole situation about Chris Brown and Rhianna, I have honestly never heard of two, huge celebrities skipping out on the Grammy's when they both were supposed to perform. If the rumors are true and Chris Brown really did assault Rhianna, that would be such a sad situation to think about because they are so good together. Something really serious must have happened and until we find out exactly what happened I'm not making any judgments.
Jennifer Hudson was absolutely amazing. I don't think I would be even close to a public appearance if something were to happen to my family. It just shows how strong she is because not many people would be able to get through an entire song, which was an emotional song to begin with, and not shed a tear until the very end. I think it helps that everyone is so supportive of her and her grieving period. She is such a beautiful person inside and out and I respect her so much!
I'm not going to lie, but I love the Jonas Brothers and thought their performance with Stevie Wonder was excellent. I mean, Stevie is a musical icon and the Jonas Brothers were so lucky to get to perform with him. You could tell that they were probably scared to death and making sure every second that they weren't going to mess up.
Last but not least, my favorite part of the show was when Jamie Foxx, Smokey Robinson, Neyo, and Duke Fakir performed together. Motown was so popular and the Grammy's definitely brought it back last night. The funniest thing about the whole situation is that this was an impromptu performance since neither Chris Brown or Rhianna was there to perform. Neyo and Jamie Foxx did an equally impressive job as either Rhianna or Chris Brown would have done.
I love music and I though the Grammy's were 100% amazing last night. I don't think there was a single performance I didn't enjoy (besides Kid Rock). Music has come so far within the past 50 years. No matter what race, color, ethnicity, or religion you are, when it comes to music it seemed that last night everyone was equally respected for their musical talents. That's all for today!

2009 Super Bowl Ads were Genius! =)
Hey guys, I hope you're having a good day so far. It has been a very long one for me and when I went back and re-watched these commercials it made me feel a little better. I am obsessed with funny commercials and when I find one that I love I usually quote for about a week straight! This one below has probably got to be one of the funniest ones that I saw during the Super Bowl.
Who doesn't think that cute, little talking babies aren't the cutest thing ever? With how much each commercial spot costs during the game I would only hope that the advertisers would make them creative and in this particular one I think they did a great job of also adding racial diversity to it. Recently I've found that more and more commercials have made it a point to put an equal amount of White, Black, Asian, and Hispanic people in commercials, therefore making the U.S. look more like the melting pot, which we have been known to be called. The other commercial that I thought was hilarious was the Doritos "Crystal Ball." He acts like he is going to use his crystal ball to predict that there will be free Doritos in the future and then just throws the ball through the vending machine. The only thing that I didn't really understand about this years Super Bowl advertising was the fact that basically all of them had mostly all men and no women. You would think that since it is a football game and tons of men usually watch that they would have more women in the commercials, but obviously they didn't go that route this year. The route that they did go was that they set up almost every commercial in the work place. With the economy being so bad and so many people hating their jobs, I think that this was definitely a smart advertising move. I think it made the audience feel like they weren't alone in the bad economic times. After watching all of these creative advertisements it makes me want to change my major to advertising! If there were more clever, creative, and funny commercials I think people would be more willing to watch them and not just skip over them with DVR or Tivo. Well these are all of my thoughts for the day and I hope you enjoyed them!
