Welcome to the ESL 5B Blog!

Hi Everyone! 

I hope you'll have a great time visiting this blog!  We can post things related to our class discussions and both of the books we're studying. 

The only downside is that you have to have a gmail address to leave a comment on the posts.  Gmail addresses are free.  You can easily get one at http://www.gmail.com/ or go to http://www.google.com/ and click on email.

I will post the two youtube video clips now.  I enjoyed the humorous one so much -- the woman is looking for her dream man and clicks through the possibilities using the TV remote!  Then at the end, the woman sitting on the sofa (her mother?) looks at the man near her and lifts the remote as if to point it at him!  He looks quite anxious!  What will she turn him into??

I think the second animated clip is beautifully done!  It shows one young woman's feelings about what others expect of her and her desire not to have an arranged marriage.

I hope you enjoy the video clips!  I hope you enjoy this blog!
-- Ms. Allerson
