Oscars are coming up once again, and as always I was not even aware. Every year my friends question my sanity when I tell them this. For me though I’m simply not a big TV person. I spend most of my time out of the house and working outside. Although I do enjoy going to the movies every now and then, I’m not one to follow the world of celebrities. Going out and enjoying life is something I would much rather do, instead of watching strangers live it up. Many talented people are broadcasted on the Oscar’s and I do believe they have worked hard for the awards they receive. It is a night of talent and recognition. Personally though, it has never played any role in my life.

English Topic #1 Re-due
Buying CD’s may have gone out of fashion, but I personally still enjoy going out to music shops and purchasing albums. Downloading music online is very common for the new generation, but I still like to own a hard copy of the music. I find with having a full album you receive a much more in-depth experience, and get a better view on what the artist is trying to get across. The Internet has although opened up a better access to music, and we are now able to get a hold of songs that were once almost impossible to find. It is still very disappointing to find that music stores across the country are closing down due to the easy access that people have at home. I think they will be greatly missed. I often wonder how much artists must struggle these days. For no cost, fans can download music and transport it to IPods. The decrease in music purchase has fallen greatly. Many talented bands are no longer receiving the support they need to continue on performing, and this results in more artists “selling out”. Which, prevents them from being as expressive as they once were.
