I really like how you carefully documented your media experiences throughout your day. There is a clear timeline to be seen here. And I also like how your journal demonstrates the amount of boredom and multitasking we go through when engaging with even the media we choose to associate with. Your journal really makes me wonder how short our attention spans have really become.
One criticism I have however is that there was not much focus on the ads or other irrelevant things that were on the pages you visited (although I see you have ad-block on). For example on the side bars of your facebook page could have had a little more attention and love from you. As well as maybe an analysis on the 'Featured Shows' on crunchyroll or the buttons on the twitch page because these are forms of media that we see on screens constantly but are always ignored and it might have been insightful to read what you had to think about these widely ignored forms of media.
But all in all I really enjoyed reading through your journal:)

I love the way you presented the media you interacted with. It truly felt like a story with conflict and cause and effect, not just a list of interactions. I also like how you subtly mentioned how some of the media you interact with is just part of your daily routine (I can definitely relate to the morning Reddit session), yet you also mentioned the disruptions that changed your routine and how you responded to them by consuming even more media, albeit media designed to solve your problem, not to sell you something.
On the other hand, your coverage seemed very high-level, missing the subtle pieces of media that we usually ignore. Even in the pictures you posted, you can see a plethora of ads and other small pieces of media, yet you only focused on the high level aspects of the websites you visited.
Overall, the presentation was fantastic and I really enjoyed reading your journal. Looking forward to see what you create in the future!
