DIARIES

 

   Andy Warhol and Kafka. Famous for their diaries. Diary, a person’s  story or private point of view. I read a few entries of their diaries from the module EDU 3234. To my astonishment,   their personalities totally constrasting.  Both of them lead their life in different persepective   point of view.  By reading Kafka’s entries, I assumed  that he is a typical character of mentally ill, loneliness and depression, sometimes has a sense of humor an cheerfulness inside him. In his entries, he describes people and their behavior around them.  It is quite nice to read. Particulary  his description of himself. He wrote that even though he is not perfect, he managed  make people turn  to look at him.  It quite amusing.  I feel that he didn’t write this diary just seem to be that way. Maybe he was provoked to write by his inner life. Nothwithstanding,  I  smile or laugh when I read Andy Warhol’s entries such  when he plan to invent a new kind of fast food, his dates and ”fifteen minutes people will be famous”. His ability critizing a person in humourous way is undeniably. Namely, he critized  actors in big size, actor not doing movie and the way an actress eats  a banana. I think that Andy is a media- friendly person, self-absorption, too concern on look and health and highly sensitive that I find how unsual it for us.  His entries also make us to follow him to where he went and meet the people he met. It’s quite interesting.  After I read  both entries, I feel  that I gain a humbling experience. It helps me to gain intimacy with both writers through their mind, emotion and experience that affect them.  Some of their life experience reflect  what happen in reality. Now I can indicate that whenever I feel  sad, been critized or delicate in ways both of them may have, I can lie with them and aware that both of them already went through  what I went through. People  still appreciate their works although what they are in their life. I reassuared that just move on  myr life no matter what in my path life.
