Found this whilst browsing YouTube and found it both clever and interesting. It’s interesting how we perceive people based on external influences. If we took the time to learn about people ourselves, our lives would be so much more enriched. That’s why i’m so excited to be able to study Anthropology. I’m learning so much about people that I didn’t know anything about, or I had preconceived notions based on what i’d been taught, which didn’t necessarily mean it was true.
Been watching documentaries all day today. Watched a documentary firstly on Noah’s Ark. I try to keep my mind open about these things, but the fact that he was supposedly 500 years old when he was on the ark, seems a tad unrealistic to me.
Also watched an interesting documentary on the Mennonites in Mexico. It was about whether or not they should give into modern technology to better their lives. Some chose not to, some did. The part that has stuck in my mind is when a family went into town and the boys saw television. Even though I personally think children don’t need to be in front of a television all of the time, it made me sad to think that these children were in awe of this and almost looked sad or not quite sad, but there was a different emotion on their face because of this experience.
Last night James and I had those yummy dippers from Pizza Hut. They were delicious.
Today it’s a tad freezing. So just veging out watching stuff i’ve recorded and bludging doing nothing much else.
Check out the Jason Mraz channel on YouTube when you get a chance.
BFN.
p.s. The Simpsons movie is here in 20 days!
