My thesis
(Day 2)
It’s amazing the other people could affect us. It’s true how men are always made for a social individual. And being analyzing human’s social inclination, I can honestly tell you that this particular topic is very interesting to talk about. And it does also will definitely put you all to sleep in a matter of seconds
>. The whole interesting-and rather annoying- subject does enlightened me some way or another. You might also find it interesting on how us, as a human, shares the same characteristics with animals. The whole territorial matter, fears, and somehow; layers. Those are some of the things affecting us from how we interact with our other partner. For example, today I suddenly got the passion come out from nowhere to do my thesis. No, that would be a lie! Actually, it came out because of one silly guy said to me that I’ve become the typical fat-anti social-girl for ignoring my life; and making him sick. It suddenly occurred into my mind that I won’t be that kind of girl. No, Sir, thank you very much! I don’t want to be those! Instead, I’ll be the sexy, passionate, smart, and fun person I’ve always wanted to be. You can take those thought and just GETT OUTTA HERE
!!!
People can affect us because of our constant contact with the other individual. I find it that in some point in our social life; we reached some sophisticated feeling of fear and being enslaved in those relationships. I did give you one example, didn’t I?! I was on that part where I was just so tired of him. Get enough of him and then wanting him to-what will the British say-Bugger off. And though it is always tempting to just run away from them and find new peoples, one sad fact you can never deny is that they only become new people for one day! After that, they will only just, you know, people
. Ironic as it is, but it gave you no other choices than to adapt. And this quality of trying to adapt with the other human is, I think, what separate us from those who we call animals.
Speaking of which, today is a perfect day as it is, I decided to turn of my Spice girl’s ‘Wannabe’ to listen to the sparrows singing in my roof. The birds sound very nice. That’s why I consider them singing. Well, perhaps they were not only sparrows up there. Possibly some parakeet, if I forget that they don’t life freely on the wild. Well, at least not where I used to live. But yes, Indonesia has almost all of your definitions of an exotic local wild life. I can assure you that you wouldn’t want to change those pretty voices in the morning for something else. Besides, Spice Girls are so 90’s. The affect these girls could brought me probably just as a reminder of how popular they are back then.
As for my thesis, I even don’t have a clue where I put the materials
. Seems like I get more and more afraid of any single thing contains ‘college’ inside. More over, I really need to figure out how to get rid of the evil inside of me, maybe lazy include in this matter. It feels like knowing that you have a huge acne right in the middle of your forehead, ready to blow up it’s lava; and there’s nothing you can do about it cause all of the beauty journal forbid you to touch them. Now you are all wondering why I can be such a dramatic person, have I told you that I’m a TV freak?! Today’s hippest issues on our Indonesian TV are about drama. I personally think that how you can figure out cultures and their point of view in a lot of countries is through their dramas. Again, what other people did or said truly affect us! And recently I might be avoiding all of those silly-religious-almost fictional-dramas because I’m sure I might be able to copying them on my real life. That’s all culture-and any university-couldn’t possibly bear. Besides, those dramas contain more than violence if you ask me.
You wouldn’t believe me if I told you that nowadays Indonesian people are being numbed by all of the ridiculous-soap opera wannabe’s-disguised by the title “electronic cinema”. Most of us even drowned on a classic… I can’t even find one example which can describe how pathetic our dramas are. Wait! Perhaps the old “Dynasty” era would be the best picture. It was a good play actually, Mr. Spelling-may he rest in peace-, but it is 2006. It is the moment where family troubles are not that entertaining anymore, unless it’s a comedy. Can you find the irony in that? And as a good college student-who seems to keep getting away from her thesis-I proudly reported that about 95 % of Indonesian college students do not dress that chic-or that sexy-and divided only into two groups. The good people and the bad people. I, myself, learned that life is almost grey.
Yet they kept doing the useless effort to entertain us. It is easier I guess, to just classify people in those two classes. But even today’s most reasonable kids studied that humans are more than good and evil! Sounds like a contradiction to me!
Nevertheless, we can never get our own conclusion if we don’t blend in. Other people will definitely disappointing, scary, and different, almost in every way. But avoiding them will also make us avoiding ourselves. How we could understand what went through unless seeing from someone else’s eyes? That’s another way for us to be wiser in life. We learned and imitate or adapt and adopt the actions. It’s the part to humanize human, don’t you think?!
