Absolutely no words to describe last night! Storming the court! Leading from the get-go! Beating the no. 1 team in the nation and our in-state rival. I had always wanted to storm the court, but feared that being preseason ranked #3 in the nation would leave me without ever getting to act on my dream! So here's to you struggling midseason Wildcats for dropping out of the top 25 and making last night's win even more of an upset.
I was literally just walking around on the court after the game saying "Unreal". That was all I could get out of my mouth! It was a phenomenal feeling. I was one of the last students off the court simply because I didn't want the moment to end! Overall great night, great win!

Convergence in Egypt
All this talk about convergence has really gotten me thinking about everything that's going on in Egypt. It's remarkable that even with Mubarek's strict regulations on internet and media, that we are still able to be constantly updated on the state of the protests.
I just recently watched a video clip on the internet in which two women shot a video of a protester approaching Egyptian police. The protester was shot and killed. The video went viral after the women put the video online. The video was shot with a cell phone camera according to the report. This just goes to further show how anyone can be a journalist and add to the media landscape in today's society.
This particular case in Egypt goes to show the value of the converged media and citizen journalist. Without people keeping us updated like this, I fear that much of the truth would not get out. It is a scary time to be a political figure with all of the scrutiny.
Here's to hoping that this fiasco in Egypt gets cleared up before much more blood is shed.
I will be taking a look at Mubarek's leadership soon hopefully

First Post
Well, it's finally happened. I have joined the world of the bloggers. Hopefully I can accomplish all the things that we talked about in class today! I'm still not 100 percent sure what kind of things I'll be updating this with but I hope it's a lot more useful than this first post!
