| First Stop on the Express |
This blog was made, or started in mind of, the one thing that most people experience in their lives, yet never actually pick up the experience. From the amount of chicken and fried rice that we order from the local Chinese Restaurant, the numerous Bruce Lee to Tony Jaa movies, and finally to the Sony Playstations that we all seem to play.
While each of these examples might not have originated in Asia, most of the examples either help "westernize" the part of the culture to Asia, or bring a flavor of Asian tradition and customs to the western world.
The common misconception is that Asian customs are weird, different; and to put it bluntly, abnormal to the way other people around the world operate. I think that this cloud of judgment is unfair because what others consider weird, is what businessmen look at and make money off of. It's unfair because they sell these "weird" things, and milk it so that the Western market eats it all up. This blog, will show where our society had gotten their influence from, and to show that what was "weird" over in the eastern world, is acceptable here when it's "westernized".
Likewise, the Western world had influenced many of the Eastern world as well. From Hip Hop, which used to be unheard of, even to Heavy Metal music; these influences of music had greatly came as a form of trade. I'll be addressing what I personally feel is wrong or not, and I will also try to inform others by using this blog. |
