TRUMAN SYNDROME DIAGNOSED (EXAM)

                        I am wondering how people feel they are not in the real world when they know about it. Moreover, if I were one of them, how I want my life to be.
                        First of all, I believe that there are many ways to control a person from particular places. Nowadays, because of high-tech, someone can be watched from a small space of the world wherever he goes and whatever he does. There are many invisible web-cans, satellite radiations all over the world. So on the other hand, we would tell that we all are trapped in a big planet (earth). That is similar to the story of the Truman show.
                        Next, someone can find easily people’s biography, background, daily routine and current issues in such computer age. Especially, celebrities, they are totally trapped in a small area surrounding by many kind of media, paparazzi and so on. Whatever they do, they are broadcasted on magazines, TV show and journals. Therefore, some people get big stress and committed suicide in different ways in order to escape from those stressful life. They don’t think they have a reality and freedom.
                        Then, I have my own experience that I felt more relaxable and immoral in my country before I come to the states knowing that I got full freedom and felt all the real thing of my life. My life was very meaningful there, of course. Nobody could track me because of being a developing country without any high-tech. I’d never got depressed and felt that I was not in a real world. So mentally, I used to have a good condition of my health. I believe that living-style is the most important for each person. Feeling that I am not in a real world is depend on the particular country’s culture and mental health. After I arrived to the states, my life-style was entirely changed because of the environment. All of my information is in record whatever I do. I feel that I was controlled everything of my life. In addition, people from surrounding are similar to actors or actresses. For example, they do their own business communicating with everybody for their business only, not for their willingness. Everything is scheduled by deadlines. So I got a lot of stress and pressure mentally and physically. There is no real relaxation and pure communication among people. I have to do the same routine daily. Sometimes, I do feel my life is ridiculous here and I feel like I am always trapped in the faked world.
                        In conclusion, because of the above examples, as some people feel that all what they do are not a reality in this world. I feel the same way starting from the first day of my arrival in the states. If possible, I really want my life to have entire freedom not watching by anybody.
