Corset anyone? M05

How about feet-binding? You've read the article but did you imagine how small was small?



Or how the feet looked when you took off the shoes?



How about a long neck?



Or heavy earrings that elongate your earlobes?

An elderly Kenyah woman with traditional long earlobe resulted from years of wearing heavy “earrings”.

Isn't it amazing, what people consider beautiful and what they would do to be in that category?

When you read the two articles on the corset and feet-binding, what went on in your head? Me, I thank God that feet-binding is banned, and that present day corsets are not what they used to be. Those poor poor feet and those poor poor children...

Penny for your thoughts....

When You Submit Your Blog Log...

... you also need to submit your blog posts/ comments as well. One way is to copy and paste everything into a Microsoft Word doc. Ms. Marziah has found a way to make it easier for us all. Thank you, Ms Gee. I like, I like.

Please click on the the link below and follow the instructions there. For me, there is no first and second submission. There is only ONE submission; so don't miss it! The due date for the blog log is our last class for the semester.

If you have any questions, don't hesitate to ask.

Happy blogging!

Reading Entries for March P13

Ooh, wow! How fast time flies! It's now March and soon, the semester will be over, but not without some pain. You guys heard it before, "No pain, no gain!"

Remember, your proposal is due this week. Then be ready to make that invention happen before you can present it to the the world. In between, there's your progress report some time in week 12.

Okay, and for those still unclear on what you need to do when you see this "Reading Entries" heading, here's what you need to do:

1. Read anything you like. It could be a book, a short story, a poem, an article in a magazine, or from your nasi lemak wrapper, or an online article, information off a cereal box, anything - but the reading materials have got to be in English.
2. Then, go to your own blog or this one, whichever first is okay, and share with us the following info: (a) what you read (b) where you read it from - e.g., if it's from a magazine, state the article title, name of magazine and page of article and if it's an online article, share the link. You may copy and paste the article but that should not be the only content of your blog entry. (c) what you thought about the article - i.e., whether you liked it or not and why OR (d) what the article reminded you of OR (e) a summary of the article OR (f) all c, d and e.
3. Sign off with your name, matric number and section.
4. Then after you have posted your entry, copy and paste what you've written into the other blog depending on which blog you went to first. If you have no blog of your own, then you just need to come here to post your comments.

Okay? Any questions, ask me when you see me. :) By the way, for the reading entries, you may post as many entries as you like. There's no limit. It all depends on how much you've read and how much you'd like to share with us.
