Everyday object- Lucie

For my everyday object discussion I chose a red scrunchie.  This red scrunchie plays has a critical role in my life. Honestly, I do not know what to do without it. It performs the simple act of keeping my hair out of my face but in reality it does so much more. This red scrunchie keeps me put together and my life together. Its circular form reflects the cycle that I go through everyday in which without this red scrunchie I could not perform my daily deeds as adequately. This red scrunchie shows how important man made object are in our lives. Something as small as a scrunchie or toothbrush are crucial for our existence as clean and refined human beings. However, my dependency on my hair scrunchie exemplifies the human vast reliance on man made goods and if they were suddenly taken away, we would not know how to respond. The scrunchie is essential to those with long hair in addition to acting as a fashion statement. Something as small as a hair scrunchie can exhibit class and cost. It shows how humans have the innate nature to constantly compete.
