Reflection #2

About 2 weeks ago I created an account on tumblr, because I've heard a lot about it in the past and I was just curious why people like it so much. The main thing about it is that everybody there is anonymous. Most of the people there don't use their real names or pictures and they share really personal information with complete strangers. This made me think about how we often can't talk about our feelings or problems with the people close to us, but it's easier when it's a bunch of strangers. It's probably, because we're so afraid of being judged by the society that we only feel safe when we're anonymous. Being judged all the time can be quite stressful, so I understand why Tumblr got so popular.

    From your description it looks like a substitute for therapy - there is a group of anonymous people willing to read about your issues. And some may even offer you some advice. Though I doubt they could be a valid replacement for a true friend.

Contemporary dance

Contemporary dance combines many different styles of dance including jazz, modern, lyrical and ballet. The moves in contemporary might seem weird sometimes, but in my opinion it looks very interesting and I enjoy watching it.  This style, unlike ballet doesn't have strict rules. Instead of graceful moves, precision and perfect technique you will see a lot of improvisation and floor work. Probably the most important part of contemporary is freedom of movement which allows to express feelings. The choreography is fluid and it can be performed to different styles of music, it can be fast, slow or whatever the choreographer wants. It's often done barefoot and the feet don't have to be always pointed like in ballet, they might be for example flexed. Contemporary dance was developed in the 1950s as a direct and opposite response to classical, strict rules of ballet technique, it became very popular in the U.S. and Europe.  Because of its versatility, it is used in a variety o...

About a week ago I went to the cinema with my friend to see a new horror film. It turned out to be quite bad and most of the scenes that were supposed to scare us were so stupid that it was funny. Some people were laughing quietly, however, there were these 2 girls who apparently wanted to show how cool they were by laughing so loudly that every single pearson in the room could hear them. I don’t understand why they went to the cinema instead of watching a film at home if they can’t stay quiet for 2 hours.

I am definitely a night owl. I enjoy staying up until 3am and waking up at 11. On weekdays I try to go to bed a bit earlier in order to wake up at 6:30. However, when I have to be at school at such an early hour I am always exhausted. I’ve noticed that I don't feel any difference between sleeping 4 and 6 hours. I know that lack of sleep could affect my health, but in my case it's impossible to feel well rested after waking up at 6:30. In my opinion it's way too early to start lessons at 8, it should be at least 9. I'm sure that this extra hour of sleep would help us all focus on the lesson better.
