Payton's first RTF 305 blog post

Hi. I'm Payton.
Before I begin typing what the prompt dictates, let me take the time to tell you a little fact about myself. I hate technology. Technology hates me. The two of us have had a long rivalry since before middle school. I was assigned to the floppy-eating-computer in the computer lab in the 4th grade, essentially destroying my presentation on the California Condor. My 2000 Volkswagen Beetle breaks down at least once every two months and my laptop refuses to run Microsoft word.

Here's a little bit of what I went through just trying to make this here blog:


(scene from Mike Judge's film Office Space)

Yeah...it's that bad. I'm probably Michael Bolton in that scene.
But now that you know how much trouble I'll be having trying to locate this website again, I guess I should begin the assignment....

Like I said before: I am Payton Foote.

I am in the RTF 305 class because of the wonderful major I am in...RTF. RTF 305 will be perfect for me because I have NO background in media studies or media work...at all. I am hoping this class gives me a decent background in everything I need to know. I am pretty sure it will because it is the pre-requisite for everything RTF. It honestly sounds like a cool class on the whole and I am looking forward to all the screenings and different discussions we will have.

I've never been much of a blog reader. But after doing some reasearch into them I've found that there is one blog I've visited more than once:



Occasionally I like to find out what's new with my boy Weezy, so I hit up the Lil Wayne HQ.

Alrite well I guess that's all for now.
Blog #1 completed.
Payton OUT.
