I WONDER WHY - SOME OBSERVATIONS SEEN ACROSS CITIES, PEOPLE AND LIFE IN GENERAL – PART ONE

1)While different people have different personalities and different tastes, what is it in social networking sites that it brings people of different profiles onto it and gets them hooked?
2)Are we jealous of the success of celebrities and their lifestyles that we are watching each and every step of theirs like a hawk and one mistake and we are ready to claw them and show them their place?
3)Why is it that when we are playing a sport we want to win convincingly and with a huge margin, but when we are watching a sport on TV we want it to be a thrilling and close game?
4)Why do news channels feel that we are dumb and any small news that they bring and hype will be watched with great enthusiasm?
5)Is it voyeurism because of which we enjoy reality shows, as in most of these shows, the life of a contestant comes in front of us (though lot of them may be faking it)?
6)Irrespective of the amount of planning or lack of it, whenever the launch date comes closer, why does one suddenly wish that if there was more time one could have done better?
7)Without meaning any offence, why are the saleswomen selling cosmetics not beautiful themselves? Is it that they want to ensure that women who come to buy these products, after applying or trying the product look at these saleswomen and feel beautiful?
8)Why is it that I cannot think of so many other observations that I have noticed over the years – I guess it needs to come back in Part Two of this blog
