Sumblog #9

The last theory classes have been the most interesting for me. I say things because I thought it was interesting that we talk about power of audience. It was funny to be that Violince guy played in a subway and went unnoticed for a very long time. Even though he performs his own shows that tickets are often sold for 200 dollars.

I also was interesting that we brought up the fact that all most everything is a stage. Everyday people are preforming in some sort. The way people interact with some people can be a way of getting there approval. I remember when I was growing up my grandpa was a very intimating man. I would go in their how with the impression that I need to perform an act that he would approve up. If my grandfather knew that I drank before 21 years old he would not see me as the person I acted like toward me. He saw me as a classy young lady who only focused on school work and sports. When in reality that was not all that I focused on when I was in high school, But something’s were left unsaid from him. We were also told that we needed to dress nice when we went over there and I always got confused because why would I dress up to go sit and talk. He shouldn’t care what we looked like, he should care that we even came in the first place. We obviously live in different generations but I still found it silly.

I am sure that a ton of people have posted from the movie “Mean Girls” but I thought that the charractor of Regina George worked perfect for this. She puts on a performance daily and at the end of the movie we get to see the real her.
