Groupssss!

Since we have been learning in class about so many different groups, i have been noticing a lot more the different groups around me. I myself am in about 8-10 groups! I have many statuses and roles to go along with those groups i'm in. I was watching the Jersey Shore the other day and there are some obvious groups with that. I was watching old episodes (when Agelina was still on) and i noticed that she is in the out group, kind of along with Sammy and Ronny. Everyone wanted Angelina to go home and everyone was getting sick of Sammy and Ronny's fighting all the time. One of the primary groups would be Mike, Vinny, and Pauly because they are very close and they even call themselves M.V.P. Another primary group is Snookie, J-Wow, and Deena, because they are very close. These are only a few i'm sure there are many more!
A group that i'm involved in would be a kinship group, because i know quite a few of my neighbors and i like to help them whenever i can. We're like a little community and i help some of them cut their grass in the summer! I am also in a primary group with my 4 best friends, and a secondary group with my school friends who i basically only just see from school! i can find an example from my life for every group there is but that would take all day! These are just a few of the groups that i've noticed and realized i'm a part of!

  1. I never knew so much about Jersey Shore until you explained it here :) Great analysis of an episode and applying groups!
