LIVE SHOWS

SO I WAS JUST THINKING ABOUT ALL THE SHOWS I HAVE GONE TO RECENTLY OR HEARD ABOUT. IM TALKING ABOUT CONCERTS, EVENTS, AND LIVE SPORTS. I DONT GO TO MANY CONCERTS BUT I HAVE BEEN TO A BUNCH FOR THE PEOPLE I LIKE A LOT, BUT I HAVE GONE TO MANY MANY MANYYYYYYYYY EVENTS, WHEN I SAY EVENTS I MEAN DJ SHOWS HAHA, AND TO QUTIE A FEW LIVE SPORTS. FOR BOTH CONCERTS AND EVENTS YOU ALREADY KNOW THEIR SONGS, YOUVE HEARD IT BEFORE THERES NOT MUCH NEW ABOUT IT. FOR BOTH CONCERTS AND SPORTS A LOT OF TIME YOU CAN WATCH IT ON TV OR ONLINE. SO FOR MOST OF THEM YOU HAVE EITHER HEARD IT BEFORE OR YOU CAN WATCH IT ELSEWHERE. THEN WHY IS IT THAT EVERYONE MAKES SUCH A BIG DEAL ABOUT GOING TO SEE IT LIVE...??? THE MAIN REASON IS THE ATMOSPHERE!!! WATCHING SOMETHING LIVE WITH FRIENDS OR FAMILY IS COMPLETELY DIFFERENT FROM JUST WATCHING OR LISTENING TO IT BY YOURSELF AT HOME. THE PEOPLE AROUND YOU AND THE ENERGY IN THE VENUE JUST BRINGS THE EMOTIONS AND ENERGY UP. BEING SURROUNDED BY PEOPLE WHO HAVE THE SAME INTERESTS JUST MAKES FOR A BETTER TIME. THERES BEEN TIMES WHERE IM WATCHING A HOCKEY GAME OR BASKETBALL GAME OR SOCCER GAME AT HOME BY MYSELF AND WHEN THEY SCORE ITS JUST LIKE OK GOOD FOR THEM, BUT WHEN IM AT THE GAME ITS LIKE THE WHOLE PLACE JUST ERUPTS AND SCREAMS LIKE THERES NO TOMORROW. SAME THING FOR A PENALTY... AT HOME I WOULD JUST BE LIKE MEH, BUT AT A GAME I WOULD YELL AND SWEAR. IT ALL JUST TIES IN TO THE PSYCHOLOGY OF GROUP BEHAVIOUR/HERD BEHAVIOUR AND HOW PEOPLE ALIKE ACT IN GROUP SETTINGS. A BIG PART OF GOING TO SHOWS THESE DAYS ARE MORE ABOUT SOCIAL STATUS THAN ACTUALLY GOING FOR THE SHOW ITSELF. PEOPLE POST ALL OVER SOCIAL MEDIA TELLING EVERYONE AND SHOWING EVERYONE WHERE YOU ARE, HOW CLOSE YOU ARE, EITHER YOU HAVE THE MONEY TO GO, OR WHO YOU KNOW. ITS ALL TOO TRUE THAT BEING ABLE TO GO TO SOMETHING THAT IS EXCLUSIVE OR SOLD OUT JUST MAKES THEM THINK IT ELEVATES THEM SOMEHOW. HONESTLY IVE DONE THE SAME THING BEFORE... IF YOU CHECK MY IG YOU CAN SEE A BUNCH OF THEM, BUT FOR ME I FEEL ITS MORE OF A JOURNAL OF MY LIFE... THEN AGAIN ITS NOT MUCH DIFFERENT OF TRYING TO LET PEOPLE KNOW WHAT OR WHERE I AM OR HAVE GONE. IT REALLY IS HUMAN NATURE ALWAYS TRYING TO ONE UP EACH OTHER, TRYING TO PROVE THAT THEY ARE BETTER, OR IN OTHER WORDS SHOW OFF LOL. NOT MUCH YOU CAN REALLY DO ABOUT THAT SINCE WE LIVE IN THE DIGITAL AGE AND WHERE SOCIAL MEDIA IS SO PREVALENT EVERYWHERE IN KEEPING EVERYONE CONNECTED. SNAPCHAT IS A PRIME EXAMPLE OF THIS AND PERISCOPE IS LIVE BROADCASTING TO THE WORLD WHERE YOU ARE. IT CAN ONLY GET WORSE IS WHAT I THINK... SO... WITH EVERYTHING SAID IM GOING TO A PARTY THIS WEEKEND AND IL MOST LIKELY HAVE PICTURES AND SNAPS UP ABOUT IT... AHEAHEHAHA

IN OTHER NEWS... IM STILL BLOCKED FROM FACEBOOK... I REALLY DONT NOTICE IT ANYMORE... I DONT GET CONSTANT NOTIFICATION FROM THEM SO THATS ACTUALLY PRETTY GOOD. WORKS WORK, GOT A FEW DAYS OFF FOR CHRISTMAS AND NEW YEAR SO SHORT WEEK THIS WEEK AND NEXT. THATS GOOD SINCE ITS A MUCH NEEDED LITTLE BREAK. JUST BEEN GOING OVERDRIVE FOR THE PAST YEAR ALMOST AND NEED A LITTLE BIT OF A BREATHER. EVEN MY VACATION WAS BUSY... SO NOW I GET A CHANCE TO JUST HANG OUT AND CHILL A BIT WITH THE FAMILY AND FRIENDS. OH OH OH THE PAST MONDAY WAS THE ANNUAL COMPANY CHRISTMAS DINNER. IT WAS NICE AND EVERYONE HAD A GREAT TIME :) AS THE SOCIAL COORDINATOR I HAD 5 GAMES SET UP, TALKED A BIT, AND DELIVERED THE SECRET SANTA PRESENTS. IT WAS GREAT JUST RELAXING WITH EVERYONE AND STUFFING OUR FACES LOL.

WELL CHRISTMAS IS ON FRIDAY SO I WISH ALL MY READERS AND THEIR FAMILIES A MERRY CHRISTMAS AND HOPE YOU ALL HAVE A WONDERFUL HOLIDAY :)
