The Amazing Break...

So I set my alarm for for 7 a.m here in Minnesota to tune in to "The Amazing Break". Clearly, its not amazing judging by the half hour time slot and the time of day in which the show aired. I found myself rather annoyed by the documentary. MTV can showcase spring break in Florida throughout the day yet they can't give us time to tell our story of the liberating spring break that we had helping humanity. Its sad to see teens of America who chose to get intoxicated and waste their life away to get more attention that those who chose to pour their souls into helping people.
On a side note, I just want to let everyone know who did participated in ASB this year that you are amazing people and that your work does pay off. The fact that you can sacrificed your vacation time to helping others shows the compassion that this world lacks at times. Thank you for being the wonderful people that you are and I hope that you can continue to make a difference in the world and the community.

I really appreciate this post and think its important your voice is heard.
You think MTV would air it again in a prime time slot if ASBers signed a petition to do service learing at their home campuses? The letter could promise to showcase the show in order to get people more involved and aware in their home communities?
The ASB participants have a chance to creat a national experience at multiple college campuses. If you want others to get involved, you should contact MTV and your local United Way to see how to make it happen.
