"JUST WATCH"

The latest personal narrative we read is titled Just Watch and was written by Saskia Boggs. The author explains how television saturates her life and how its relevance has changed over the years. We learn that she has strong and passionate views on television but is not a strong enough person to voice her opinion or speak out against TV. She tells her story in a frustrated and angry tone, and takes the universal idea of the inflated importance of television and makes it personal by telling us how TV can be found in her environment and its effects on her. Her piece is effective because every one can relate to what she says about television, understand her views, and even learn how to improve our lives from her story.
