The Glamorous Sracso

 

What are Girl Scouts cookies? I wonder as I watch the man on stage throw back the black cloth to show the numbers 65243. What do these numbers even mean? Is that worth a lot? This show is between channel 6 and channel 8. These people adorned in exquisite cloths and dangling jewelry are announcing something. Oh something about nominations. I hear the films "Mad Max: fury road" and "The Revenant" said pretty often. Are they permanently on these nomination lists because there's a lot of times where the lady or gentleman on the stage opens up a fancy looking red and gold envelope  and dramatically says "Mad Max". The thunderous roar suddenly starts as the screen pans to a specific person standing up. They look very happy and start shaking hands with the multitude of people sitting around them. They are congratulating them I think but I still have to figure it for what? Oh my they are given this shiny little gold man. It looks very interesting and now that I notice more of the background, there's more of these shiny gold men but a lot bigger scattered and stacked in the background. The person given this little object starts talking in the mic, but it's always filled with thanks - thanks for either family, crew, or whatnot. I don't really understand why they are thanking but the speeches don't last for long as they seem to end when the music starts playing. I'm starting to get that the music means "hurry up and finish your speech". Now, there's singing. Huh? I thought this whole thing was about just people getting the statues.  I guess this show has a lot of entertainment packed into it.

The reason why people write in another perspective foreign to our own is to raise awareness of the objects we take granted. The stuff and normalities that we think is so normal might not be so in other countries or ethnicity.  The "Body Ritual Among the Nacirema" is a perfect example of this. When I first read it, I was like huh? Is there actually a culture out here like this? When it hit me, I was shocked about how a foreign take to the everyday things that I do changes my mindset. It really shows how everybody's perspective is locked onto one specific mindset because most of the people in our class didn't realize that this piece was a satire of Americans until after we talked about it. After reading this essay, the question "do people really see us like this?" lingered in my mind.

Also Leonardo DiCaprio for The Best Actor please.
EDIT: WOOHOO He finally got it :')
