On the show each episode consists of the cast going out, partying, drinking excessively coming home and getting into drama. MTV itself has a target demographic of people ages 12-34 (Lankford 35).

The Jersey Shore is not the breeding ground for muscular, fake-tanned, loud-mouth party-goers popularized in American culture by the 2009 MTV reality television show. That image serves as the broad standing consensus of Americans understanding of the state’s one-hundred and thirty mile coastline. A few steps away from the glimmer of the neon lights in the beach towns of Seaside Heights, Belmar, and Asbury Park lies the heartland of America. A splendid melting pot of schools, playgrounds, parks
asking my classmates about what they think when they hear the word, “Italians.” Most of my classmates answered: pizza, Italian food, Jersey Shore, slicked back hair, and that Italians are fat (Reyes Survey). These stereotypes come from the portrayal of Italians in the media. The Italians are usually found in gangster-related, family or reality shows, for example, Jersey Shore and The Sopranos.

Growing up on the Jersey Shore, I spent a lot of my time on the water whether it was on the beach or on the Barnegat Bay. Gazing out over the water, I can see sailboats going in all different directions all while igniting my interest. The boats going by me were unique, it was a sport I had never seen before or even thought of. There were kids like me going off in their own little vessels across the water. I was captivated by the sight and knew that was something I wanted to do. It was then, that
acknowledged and popularized in the recent years. This is the “Guido” lifestyle. Made popular by the hit MTV television show “Jersey Shore”, the term Guido was not always accepted in the positive tone that the it is given in popular media today. Some consider it an inappropriate slur and racist term (Cohen 1-2). While that may be the case in the past, today “Jersey Shore” and other mass media have most certainly contributed to the mainstream acceptance and popularity of the Guido style and have changed
Let us journey back to two years ago as I stroll down the crowded hallways of my high school. Accompanying me to my next class is my best friend of four years, whom I have spent nearly every waking minute with since the day our paths crossed. Arriving just as the bell begins to scream ferociously, he pats me on the back and smiles, “Have fun, man! Love ya!” and we hug. One of our peers walks past us and snickers to my teacher, “Give them a minute; they’re bromancing.” The significance behind my interest

expression "our days." The use of "minutes" in place of "days" makes life seem even shorter and gives the poem a sense of urgency. The speaker uses wave imagery to show the audience that life is rushing: "Like as the waves make toward the pibbled shore,/ So do our minutes hasten to their end" (813). The wave is a very appropriate symbol for life. First it is nonexistent, then it becomes a small groove on the water, then it swells to greatness. As it grows in size, it speeds up, as life seems to speed

this journey to get to a point right past where all the waves break, to a point called the line-up. It’s here, where he waits for a wave that he catches back towards the shore, only to make the journey back through all the cold harsh currents and waves again. He catches a few waves, and then catches one all the way back to shore, where he showers, gets dressed and then goes off to work. He has one of the most stressful jobs I can think of.
