Probably something along the lines of “a particular way of thinking, especially one that is reasonable and based on good judgment”. The defininiton is picked ad verbatim from Cambidge Dictionary, btw.
I am going to introduce you to my special brand of logic.
Yesterday evening I received an amazing piece of information: I will have extra students in my B2 class.
Why is that bad? Well, because I had originally been planning to have my group write an article during both lessons. Alas, the extra students hadn’t been taught how to write articles 😱😱😱
Therefore, I had to change my plan. Too bad, right?😭
But my colleague said that she had ready-made materials for a movie. 💥💥💥Problem solved? I had thought so too until I saw the materials. In the exercises for the movie the teacher is supposed to talk to the students! The horror!😵Rest assured, I wasn’t in the mood to talk to them.
And what do I do?Obviously, I go and make my life much harder!(go, me!) Firstly, I make an Alias game out of all their vocab and… 🥁drum roll!🥁 I compile a quiz game out of their final course test, some game I found on Quiziz and original tasks!
🍒 You’ll never guess what the cherry on top is… In the end I had to talk to them even more than I would have had to had I taken the movie tasks. Le GASP!
So here is my brand of logic…🤒
🤔Why did I do that? Well, frankly, I recalled that the movie is a tad bit boring, and the tasks were with Russian translation (I am not a hater of Russian in English classes, mind you. But my B2 students are genuine B2, they don’t need it, really, especially for movie comprehension tasks). What’s more, I knew that the extra students, as long they are not actively engaged, might misbehave.
🫠The morale of this story is: as long as you can rationalize even the most hair-brained decisions, at least to yourself, go for it! As long as it’s not anything illegal, obviously.
The B2 Grammar Quiz is in the comments.
UPD. Let's make this more logical. My life doesn't follow rules, at least the post will.

Messages are not fully encrypted by default. That means the company could, in theory, access the content of the messages, or be forced to hand over the data at the request of a government. Friday’s performance was part of a larger shift. For the week, the Dow, S&P 500 and Nasdaq fell 2%, 2.9%, and 3.5%, respectively. You may recall that, back when Facebook started changing WhatsApp’s terms of service, a number of news outlets reported on, and even recommended, switching to Telegram. Pavel Durov even said that users should delete WhatsApp “unless you are cool with all of your photos and messages becoming public one day.” But Telegram can’t be described as a more-secure version of WhatsApp. The channel appears to be part of the broader information war that has developed following Russia's invasion of Ukraine. The Kremlin has paid Russian TikTok influencers to push propaganda, according to a Vice News investigation, while ProPublica found that fake Russian fact check videos had been viewed over a million times on Telegram. Also in the latest update is the ability for users to create a unique @username from the Settings page, providing others with an easy way to contact them via Search or their t.me/username link without sharing their phone number.
