MY FIRST RADIO


I had to cry to my mom to make her buy me this . 


My Pensonic portable AM/FM Radio 

RADIO-LESS

I had never been a fan of radio, just now.

When I was young I remember my grandfather asking me to listen to the radio with him and I did but I always ended up falling asleep. I don’t know why but radio has never been my thing, I think the only time I get to listen to the radio and concentrate is whenever I am inside a car and the radio is playing.  We do have radios at home and at my grandparents’ house but I never cared to use them when I was younger.  I thought Why would I listen to the AM or FM If we have CD’s, DVD’s and the Internet.  For me back then Radio is a piece of trash that I don’t care about, it’s an old fashioned thing for elders.  But that was just me before I entered college and choose mass communication as my course.

What was I thinking back then????? I shouldn’t have taken radio for granted. I remember when I was in first Year College and my professor in Introduction to mass communication asked me what is my favorite radio station, I panicked because I couldn’t give an answer and in the end I decided to tell the truth. I told my professor that I am sorry because I couldn’t give an answer and I am not much of a fan of radio.  That is so embarrassing because for a masscom student I should have known better I should have at least an idea about radio stations but sadly I was clueless and I was really disgusted with myself. On the positive side at least I learned my lesson. I have my own radio now and I am proud to say that I listen to it every night. Although I’m still trying to get use  to listening to AM radio because I still think it’s a little boring .

I’m Radio-less no more and I think I’m more of a responsible masscom student now specially that I know how important radio is with the path I’ve decided to take.
