Speaking Circle #6

Jane

4/1/2015

Members: Shaymah, Colas, Fatima

Summary: 

               Today's weather is super awesome! We sat outside with sunshine nearby wells hall. With the attractive nature view, we talked a lot excitedly. Firstly, we talked about beauty staff. I recommended them some products which I use such as "Vaseline" for body, "L'Occitane" for hand and "GlamGlow" for face. In order to persuade them, I introduced the function, ingredient, comments from others especially celebrities, and my own experience to them. Secondly, we talked about homosexual. In shaymah's and Fatima's view, they cannot accept homosexual. Because they think it breaks the nature role. Moreover, homosexual is illegal in their countries. However, Colas and I don't care about this and we can accept it. From our view, this is because we are young generation, so we can accept every different and new things. But Fatima thinks this is because the culture we grew up in. Thirdly, we talked about our next meeting, because we wanna something special. So after discussion, we decided playing bowling next time.

Response:

               After today's meeting, I feel our friendship become closer. It is "Friend" that it is difference with before which is just "Member". Because we were not talking on purpose in order to finish the "homework", our topics are just free like beauty things. Besides, according the discussion on homosexual, I learnt that this is still a disputable topic and there is a gap among young and old generation, and also different cultures on this issue. 

Analysis:

              When we talked about beauty things, we had difficulty on a lot of special words to the products. So when I introduced the products, I also used some relative images to help me describe clearly. And we checked dictionary when we had to use some words about chemistry. So, next time we can shop beauty products online together, and there are a lot descriptions to the product online for us to learn.
