Learning Log 2

During our previous literature lessons, we learnt a lot about superstitions.Each individual was asked to jot down 5 superstitions that they believe in.Since I could only think of only two examples, I had to surf the internet to complete the assignment.I found some rather interesting ones which I had never heard before.One example is , to spit on a new bat before using it so that you are lucky.I was really surprised upon hearing this superstition. I do not actually believe in superstitions as they do not normally occur.Superstitions derive from the olden times where a incident occurs coincidentally due to a unknown reason and from then on people start to believe that by doing the same task, either good luck or bad luck bestows on you.One superstition which I think is not good is that when black cat walks in your path , bad luck will bestowed on you.As a result , people start to hate black cats and be cruel with them.Some go to the extent to even kill it.It is not the cat's fault that the it's  skin colour is black.It is god's will that the cat's skin colour is black it is not the cat's will.Hence people should not be cruel to black cats.Most of the superstions are not true.Few black cats have crossed my path and nothing happened to me that day.Everything was fine and nothing unlucky occured to me.Hence to sum this up,people should not be gullible to believe in everything they are told .Moving on , we drew or printed out a picture of the three witches present in Macbeth.Later some of my classmates acted as the three witches.I enjoyed their mimicking of three witches particularly Liang Wei's high pitch imitation voice of the witch.The "witches" airs and graces was a laughing stock of everyone.I myself guffawed loudly.I found the lesson on macbeth very enjoyable.
