Tuesday's class was insightful. The movie we watched showed a lot of different types of things that I always noticed but never really knew if there were specific reasons for them. Such as, the time issue. I have always noticed that everyone operates on different clocks, but I just thought that was how people were. Never had I linked it to be a cultural thing... but it is. I guess my culture operated on the same clock as the girl who said that if an invitation said to be at the party at 6 you really are supposed to show up at like 7:30 or 8. I always thought this was the case because people wanted to be "fashionably late." I guess I was wrong because I learned that it is a culture thing. Weird.
The rest of the movie was interesting, but like Ashley said I wish that they would have focused more on the subjects. They just kind of zipped through them and really didn't elaborate on their thoughts. One part that I disagreed with was when they were talking to the professor and the students said they would believe what he said because he was the teacher. FIrst of all, we should all have our own minds and just because someone has a P.H.D. doesn't mean they know everything. There are some things that even doctors don't know and it isn't smart to follow what the professor says just because he is the professor. I wish that people would have their own minds and think for themselves. But I understand to a point what they were saying, but there is just part of me that says that they were wrong. Oh well, I will do whatever I think is best for me.
This is a short entry but I think that I have covered everything I wanted to. It's Valentine's Day and I am so excited! : )
