Doll Face


Doll face is a video we all can relate too, a video where confuses you but it is a very broad term they're talking about. Doll face, once it began it was very strange and I was a little terrfied of what else was going to happen. But once I kept watching it, a bunch of things came into mind. But one main topic came to mind, and that was the media. The video of this girl being something she completely is not, just made me think of how many people are like her. How many people try to change their lives, their looks and the way they are just to fit in and to become accepted into this world? It is interesting how she keeps going closer and closer to the television and that just shows how, we people, would go to those measures to become what we see in the television. When she breaks and doesn’t reach it, we break when we are not accepted in groups or groups at school. We break, mentally. It feels horrible when you are not what everybody wants and take it from me I know how that feels. I know because everyone wants to fit into society and they want to be part of something. No one wants to be lonely. I know in my high school days I wanted to be loved and I would dress a certain way to catch the guy’s attention and what not. But at the end of the day that doesn’t fill the void in you and you still don’t feel accepted because it isn't the real you, the one who you are showing the world. I think the message of this story is what we see in the media is something that we as humans we can’t reach because we are not perfect, even the people who are in the media aren't perfect. But the media sets high standards and expects us to look a certain way and we can’t simply reach that. You can’t. You can try all you want but your results are going to be that you failed and break such as Doll face. God made us imperfect and we all have to realize that we are never going to reach what the media thinks we should look. We need to realize that we are imperfect and learn to love yourself because at the end life is too short to care for what the media thinks.
