First Blog Task

First blog task

1.)  Media has always been a hobby of mine. And it goes well for my Computer Science course as well

2.)  I studied in Norway and the system is a lot different then the U.K. In Norway I studied what is called Advanced General studies with technology. Meaning I study advanced math, science, social studies, entrepreneurship, technology studies.

3.)  Didn't take GCSE so I can't answer this question

4.)  I'm aiming for A. I'm very interested in media and always have been. I've always seen it as a hobby so studying in my free time is always fun and won't get bored with it. So I'm expecting to achieve high.

5.)   My main goals in life are to study Computer Science at a University and become a Software Engineer. I've been planning this for a long time and because of the subjects I choose, if I do well in all three subjects then I will have no problem achieving my dream

6.)  I feel like the biggest media story of 2020 is the COVID-19 pandemic. It's been going throughout this year and it's always changing. I mean the first thing that would probably come up to your mind when you think of 2020 is the pandemic and the different kind of situations we have been in. And the media has been a big aspect of the pandemic. The media treats pandemic as if its the world ending situation but what the truth is, the pandemic as a lot smaller then the media portrays it.

7.)  Well for me I use vg.no mainly because 1 its Norwegian and 2 it's really easy to follow. It has all the main news of the world and I get to see what's going on in my home country. But regularly I use twitter and TV to also see what's going on but it could be heavily clouded with fake news and stories that are not important.

8.)    The last film I watched was a movie called "Robin and the 7 Hoods". Its a movie made in 1964 which stars the famous singer Frank Sinatra. Its about two different gangs building the biggest casinos to take over New York.

9.)    I've recently watched Breaking Bad and I have to say It's my all-time favourite.

10.)  Well, I'm on my computer most of my day. I still do other things like exercise, meet with friends, spend time with family and school work but I would say I am online for like 6 to 8 hours every day. Depending on how much free time I have.
