So perhaps from down there, it looks embarrassing or simply non-special to be the emcee gracing an occasion but once you've risen to the festivity and placed lots of determination into it, its a totally different system altogether. To those nonchalant students who regarded us (Emcee duo FTW! :D) as fools or the usual "lame", I agree and yet beg to differ. It wasn't the role that made us a fool, it was the expectations of an emcee that forced and compelled our unwilling souls to produce boring scripts that would definitely bore the population and we deserve that disrespect... but without the knowledge that the formality had to be observed, none will anticipate that an emcee goes through such a rigid framework to generate his grandmother story. More to that, it was an adventure of impromptu to buy us time when events failed to happen punctually or simply because things took a plunge for the worst, that we emcees go up there to center all the humiliation and awkwardness upon ourselves--so that the true culprits get away scot-free, rushing to resolve their mistakes.
Perhaps I may be overstating the important of an emcee but I respect this so much because I've been through it. This makes me ponder, that reality as we see it cannot just be defined whether it is of true existence or just another dream conjured while our brain is in a vat or the jailbirds in Plato's allegory gaining enlightenment. More than just those speculative philosophy, our existence if assumed real, is defined by perspective. If we have never met a dog before, we would laugh our lungs out given the opportunity to meet one and perhaps shrivel at its shrill bark. It is the same with anything in reality and I term this a facade within a facade. Perhaps life offers enough delusions already and yet within such trickery and mischief, we find deeper facades that toy with our mind. The deeper we get, the harder to escape--like the tiers of dreams that Cobb ventured towards. If we allow ourselves to get pulling in once, it may recur and soon the pressure would be too immense to overcome...
When I wish upon those very stars, I promised them something--that even if this were all non-existing and it may very well be a dream, I'll be a dream with you--forever <3
