Cable?

I have finally come to realize that I actually miss cable. When there is nothing to do around my dorm like say on a rainy day, I always wish I had some cable to just chill out and watch as sad as that sounds. I never thought that I would ever say that I miss it when I decided not get cable the first day. My thoughts of getting cable were like, I barely ever watch television, I don't need it and so on. I'm sure my roommates were saying the same exact thing also. As I am writing this and thinking about what to write, I'm contradicting myself saying all of this. I'm contradicting myself because I know now of my roommates and I living statuses, that we couldn't really afford it. If I weren’t a communications major I would look at the television as a luxury item. However television is one of the major forms of communication. A lot of people look at cable television as their savior for many purposes. I mean cable does offer so many different things if you look at it. I think it also depends on a person’s lifestyle, to which they actually need cable television. For example, I am from the Jersey Shore and I would say my friends and I rarely watched the television. Yes we did hangout and watch some cable sometimes, but mainly when there was nothing else going on. I feel the same way with my current condition.
