Today in Humanities class we looked at tips to finish our concluding paragraph. We had two visitors come to our class today, Mr. Lopez and Ms. Mendoza. Ms. Mendoza brought us a Shakespeare sonnet to analyze. The poem was about how his wife was not the prettiest woman but either way he still loved her. This sonnet was to show us that beauty lies within. We discussed out different opinions of what beauty means to us and what the sonnet meant to us. After Ms.Mendoza taught the class, Mr.Lopez had another activity about how the Media is all about physical appearance. We watched a quuick video of the news. The story about the day wasn't about the war, or about a new disease, but about how a french designer said that Barbie has "cankles". We discussed who are the winners and losers of this situation. Other than the video, we read an article about how the media and advertisements influences even Brazilians. It made them turn away from their traditional curvy body and wish for a thin figure. i learned how the media makes us notice our flaws and want to change them to fit what they call "perfect".
