In 2015 the United Nations decided to mandate an International Memorial Day that should be adopted by all nations. By using social media every celebration should include guests from some other part of the world. This biannual celebration is held on the days of the winter and summer solstice. The global connections with other social medial participants will be established through a lottery system prior to the day of joint celebration.
This Sunday, June 21, 2015, my family and I will be sitting down to have a dinner with people from around the world thought the use of social media. My three brothers, my parents, both sets of grandparents, and I will be sitting down to an early dinner and be able to share it with people from different countries around the world that have been chosen just like us through a lottery drawing that my mom got us into at the beginning of this year and we were the family selected for the United States. We will be using several different interactive screens to view the other families through a live video chat. Before hand we swapped recipes with the people from other cultures so that each family would have a taste of the other persons life for a few hours. Then once the meal is cooked all ten of us will gather around the dining room table and turning on the video chat to view the other families sitting at their dining room table. Then each family would explain their common traditions about dining in their culture and then we would all enjoy our meals at the same time while still being able to talk to the other families via the live video chat. Then after the meal we can talk with them and discuss the food or anything else we want. Later this year on December 21, 2015 we get to do this again.
