105 Learning Journal # 4

[Rosemary Diaz]

My classmates presentation were all very interesting. It was nice to to learn about kosher McDonalds in Israel because it shows how a culture can use something that began somewhere else and mold it to fit their own culture. I enjoyed learning abut Korean dramas because i realized how similar they could be to Spanish Telenovelas in regards to all the romance. I also found it interesting that in Turkey people tattoo themselves with a famous figure of their country. I find that strange, but at the same time it shows how the people of Turkey express their pride and nationalism. Finally, I found it funny and also shocking about the steps Korean people take to make their faces look good because I don't even do all those things to take care of my own face. Overall, I think everyone's presentation was awesome and very informative.
