Catch my Drift?
i like my journalism tutes, because my tutor looks like Naomi and it was good to be able to look at someone who looks similar to another someone i was very close and fond with sometime ago in my life...
so anyway, we were talking about media representations, advertising and the images given to us viewers which we took for granted. Ads in particular, CLEO magazines and their counterparts usually potray "beautiful" women and men with perfect curves and shapes and sizes..
then we must ask ourself is that real? or is that ass airbrushed?
someone in the class mentioned OC and this 2 girls jsut sprang into life, and started talking about the OC. they were so into it they started naming out the main characters from that show and what they do and what they wear...
(i mean, come on...)
then one guy who i didnt really like before (now i salute him in respect) suddenly interupted the 2 girls ecstatic monologue and said "forgive me for my ignorance but what is OC? what does it stand for?"
...
in one way that is a good sign, the other...well..not so good...i wont attempt to explain it here because..well..its complicated..
then we finally got over the OC and moved on.
then Fast and Furious Tokyo Drift came to the discussion... we were quite into that topic about the no speeding advert at the start of the movie when SOMEONE in the back row asked..
"whats a drift?"

Sometimes when you are already so deep in discussion about certain topic and suddenly, one good soul ask "what is this ---? that you are talking about?"
You will like 'oooh...' it's like a tunderstorm, heavy downpour pouring down all over your heads !!!
However, we should really salute these poeple and cherish their questions, coz it is absolutely necessary that "THE GROUP" are in it and moving together.
It may be a cruel truth, but we certainly need some couraging soul to throw these questions at us.
Our last Satsang topic, we always talk about 'seeking inward ' Questions are: what are we looking for? How do we look inward?
Then every body says these are tough questions. Each have to go back and think. GREAT?
And you know who is the great soul to ask this question.
