Making this video for my Ethics in Communications class was a lot of fun. I mean, I rapped to MC Hammer's "U Can't Touch This." (Well, that's something I never expected to do for class.)
Yet, what I learned about this video is how sometimes the best moments happen spontaneously. Such as, running into the University's president and asking him to say, "U Can't Text here" or randomly deciding to dance as I crossed the street.
I hope that besides the video being funny, people realize that the message is important. Texting at lunch, in church or in class is disrespectful. There is a problem within our generation where we are so consumed by our individual media consumption that we disregard everything around us. It makes us lose a little bit of our humaness.
I love texting. Yet, I also love being with people. Connecting with them face-to-face and creating connections outside of my iPhone.
I hope you enjoy this video and learn something from it. I also hope the tune gets stuck on your head for as long as it got stuck on mine.
