Today Show

Every Monday, Wednesday and Friday I wake up with the Today Show and watch Today with Kathie Lee and Hoda. Sadly I do not get my fill of these fun friends on Tuesdays and Thursdays because of a class that starts at the same time as their exciting show. Kathie Lee's and "Hoda Woman's" topics for talks range from the latest fashion to their favorite things, health and nutrition, viral web-videos, and even to a woman who ended up going on a date with a man who turned out to be her brother; their stories and comments often make me stop and say "What the What?!?" This morning's show had highlights from Hoda at a zumba (aerobic dance-fitness) workout session. I personally love zumba since helping with a workshop on the workout at the 2009 Arkansas 4-H Teen Leader Conference. Watching Hoda dance with Beto Perez (creator of zumba) reminded me of all the fun, so much that some zumba moves return at almost every 4-H dance Arkansas 4-H'ers attend. The fun was only getting started with this topic, at the begin of their show. One of their main topics that caught my attention was "Can you tell your friends too much?" As a 18-year-old female I immediately think of my best friend and all the secrets and stories we have told. I believe that my best friend, since the 6th grade, may know me better than even I know myself, we tell each other everything, how first dates go, biggest fears and big problems. We talk so much we even have daily skype dates. We are best friends through and through where I honestly cannot think of one secret I have not told her.  Lets be honest we all know women talk, we talk to each other, we talk to men, we talk on the internet and some even talk to pets. Which topics are off limit to share with others? Talking about an important event or how a day went with a good friend is acceptable but sharing your most intimate feels and moments with everyone of your friends might be too much. I loved when of the specialist said "Facebook is not a therapy session," to re-enforce my first blog post, please stop posting everything on Facebook and social networks. You're just as discrete as your most discrete friends, so maybe it should be more important to edit your information someone and maybe some should edit more before telling everyone. This topic really got me think about what all I have shared and with whom I have shared my information (stories and secrets) with. Some things to think about before you tell too much information: How much is too much info.? How  many people do you tell? Who do you tell? and what I believe to be the mostly importantly Who are your real friends?
