What’s logic for you, guys?

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.

"Markets were cheering this economic recovery and return to strong economic growth, but the cheers will turn to tears if the inflation outbreak pushes businesses and consumers to the brink of recession," he added. Telegram was founded in 2013 by two Russian brothers, Nikolai and Pavel Durov. The company maintains that it cannot act against individual or group chats, which are “private amongst their participants,” but it will respond to requests in relation to sticker sets, channels and bots which are publicly available. During the invasion of Ukraine, Pavel Durov has wrestled with this issue a lot more prominently than he has before. Channels like Donbass Insider and Bellum Acta, as reported by Foreign Policy, started pumping out pro-Russian propaganda as the invasion began. So much so that the Ukrainian National Security and Defense Council issued a statement labeling which accounts are Russian-backed. Ukrainian officials, in potential violation of the Geneva Convention, have shared imagery of dead and captured Russian soldiers on the platform. Telegram has gained a reputation as the “secure” communications app in the post-Soviet states, but whenever you make choices about your digital security, it’s important to start by asking yourself, “What exactly am I securing? And who am I securing it from?” These questions should inform your decisions about whether you are using the right tool or platform for your digital security needs. Telegram is certainly not the most secure messaging app on the market right now. Its security model requires users to place a great deal of trust in Telegram’s ability to protect user data. For some users, this may be good enough for now. For others, it may be wiser to move to a different platform for certain kinds of high-risk communications. In the United States, Telegram's lower public profile has helped it mostly avoid high level scrutiny from Congress, but it has not gone unnoticed.
