Barack Obama, and Harvey Milk influence me greatly because they showcase that minorities deserve positions in America's government.
Elizabeth Lee, an angsty high schooler from Texas showed the world what she was made of. MTv gave her a television show, which she used to show her unusual lifestyle, as well as capturing the dramatics that will ensue in high school. Plus, she is sorta my idol.
Lady Gaga is a huge influence on me, her music, and individuality is something that should be highly acclaimed (which it is, go figure.)
I met my best friend Danica on this day, it's pretty important because she is my best friend.
MTv's release of the popular culture fad-show Jersey Shore promoted a life of "GTL" (Gym, Tanning, Laundry.) The show caught much praise, and much negative criticism over it's showcase of alcohol consumption, as well as its' stereotype of Italian-Americans.
Me and my future roommate Kate Feldmann bought very expensive tickets to see Miley Cyrus in concert. Miley's magical voice, and exuberant styling made the concert a life changing event for me.
From constant government spending, to war spending, to American debt, 2009 saw a huge American recession.

Facebook, the worlds most popular social networking site is launched. Users of the site can connect with friends, share pictures and information, play games, and chat with friends on the popular site. The site also has international divisions, making world-wide communication a click away.
During a Janet Jackson performance at the world's most watched sporting event, a wardrobe malfunction caused Janet's nipple to become exposed. This event caused major backlash, and even sparked legal cases from the FCC. It was a good example of censorship in America.
Massive debt, death, little - to no - peace: The iraq war. In 2003 the United States officially declared a war in Iraq.
Gel pens were all the rage when I was younger, they were just colored pens, but we traded them like money. I guess gel pens never go out of style!
MTv's release of "The Osbournes" started a cultural revolution known as 'reality television.' Reality shows are often based off famous families, funny characters, or people searching for love.

Now-a-days reality television is one of the most in demand types of entertainment, with such popular shows as American Idol, Real world, Hogan Knows best, and Vh1's series of "- of Love" shows.

A great flood in the Midwest United States became known as the great flood. This flood hit my hometown, as well as much of the Midwest, and caused massive destruction.
A star is born. Miley Cyrus, the single largest influence in my life is born this day. Her music and finesse have made this old sailer fall in love. Besides, unless Miley conquers the world, she can't get much better.
Guess what? Just like everyone else I was born. My birth just so happened to be on this day, in this month, of this year.
Elizabeth, "Liz", Lee, the star of MTv's My Life As Liz, is born in this month. She is my idol, if I could I would probably marry her. Her style, her awkward social grace, what's not to love?
