Graduation is almost here. I have a bunch of friends that are coming up and I am excited!! The freedom train is on the way!
Congrats to Obama! He won N. Carolina by 14 percentage points. He barely lost Indiana but thats ok. I do believe Hillary should quit. Mathematically, there is no way she can win. Also, if she does get the nomination, it would tear the party apart. The perception would be that party leaders, not the people, chose the candidate. And we all know that perception is everything.
We essentially had show and tell for my Archaeological Theory class. We had to bring in a piece of material culture. Our discussion was about how things and humans interact. Objects are manifestations of ideas and relationships. My stripper pole represents a lot. This is what the professor said:
- My social status: It is very expensive and many people chipped in to buy it. It shows my ability to bring in resources, which is very high.
- It also represents in general, my friendship with these people.
- It represents a commercial transaction between men and women
- It also represents gender relations
- It is also represents a power relationship between women and men
- It also demonstrates how I relate to the opposite sex
- There was also a discussion on how the form and the pole itself gives meaning to the object
