Goodbye Lutterworth!
My last day at Lutterworth College tomorrow. I would like to thank Mr. Ford and Mrs. Hammond for their wonderful teaching and hardwork over the past year! It has been a pleasure and I have certainly enjoyed studying Media at A level!

OVERLY ATTACHED GIRLFRIEND
Overly Attached Girlfriend [OAG] first featured in a YouTube video published by Laina Morris (username wzr0713) on June 6, 2012 that was a submission to a contest held by Justin Bieber who challenged fans to create a "Girlfriend" counterpart to his hit song "Boyfriend". The video, which satirized elements of the Bieber song that have been perceived as clingy, featured the woman staring at the camera with a fixed smile while singing about Facebook-stalking her boyfriend and other themes.[1] The video was noticed by the social news website reddit and quickly became popular gaining more than 170,000 views the first day.[
Arising from the success of the video, 'OAG' became an Internet meme that features the image macro of a young woman featured in the video, smiling and staring manically at the camera that has been captioned in a way that portrays her to be a stalker, jealous, or committed to her love interest to an unhealthy degree.[3][4] The image came from a still from the video was taken and made into an image macro which also became very popular and spread across many social media websites[5] and was remixed in various ways.[6][7]
The subject (and creator) of the original video has continued to produce further videos, approximately once a week. While most feature the OAG persona, some are entirely 'in character', while others cover other issues, including charity fundraising.
