Television:
I don't really watch TV the media is always trying to hype up how you should be afraid to leave your door unlocked, drive your car, or just live! It's depressing, I'd rather play some musica and jus chill. When I do watch TV I usually watch cartoons or videos. Scratch that Grey's Anatomy and Ugly Betty have caught my attention as well as any of the CSI's.
