How myself have changed since I have been in the U.S？
I have some revelations about popular culture. Popular
culture can easily influence people’s behavior, and sometimes it can change the
cultural identity of an area. I am not immune to American popular culture. I can
be influenced easily. I have enjoyed rap music more and more since I
came to America. And I have attended a lot of parties which I barely did in my hometown
since I lived in Chicago. In America, people usually half-naked when they are
jogging or walking. That is what I couldn’t accept. Because I might feel
uncomfortable if I half-naked in the public (except when I am swimming).
What I have become aware of since taking this class?
Popular culture is very different with high culture. For
example, McDonald’s is a popular culture. Because it may disappear in the
future. It just a popular culture in a period of time. Shakespeare plays are
high culture because hundreds of years have passed, it still very important in
our society. People can hardly forget it. It can last forever.
Nowadays, it is very important to study popular culture for
all the people. Because if you are a student, it can help you to learn a lot of
latest trends when you studying popular culture. It can expand your knowledge.
It can help you become more popular in the school. And the most important thing
is that it can inspire your creation. Maybe you can find out some new ideas
when you studying popular culture.
