The Importance of Punctuation

An English teacher wrote these words on the whiteboard: “woman without her man is nothing”. The teacher then asked the students to punctuate the words correctly. The men wrote: “Woman, without her man, is nothing.”

The women wrote: “Woman! Without her, man is nothing.”
Sorry! Couldn’t help it!!! 😉

Advertising

The next topic in my fourth year classes will be advertising and although it may seem quite hard to discuss about the fallacies of advertising in class I can see no reason not to have a good laugh out of these two commercials I have come across.

And another one I’ve also found funny. I hope you understand.

Beauty is a product of Photoshop

To illustrate my lesson this week where we’ll be discussing what makes a beautiful woman or man, just have a look at this video.


Today’s beauty ideals can create a desire for perfection which leaves women all over the world with feelings of anxiety and inadequacy about their physical appearance. Living with these ideals can negatively influence the way a woman values her physical self and impact her overall sense of self-worth.

This perfection we sometimes see on billboards and on TV  is often deceiving; just the work of the miraculous Photoshop. I’ll help you see my point with some Quotes.

I’ve never seen a smiling face that was not beautiful.  ~Author Unknown
Beauty is not in the face; beauty is a light in the heart.  ~Kahlil Gibran
