This week I watched again a video from school of life, it was about luck and how much it really interferes in our lives. People tend to justify their failures by saying it was bad luck or think other people successes are just because of good fortune. But these are just excuses for our mistakes that don’t let accomplish same success as others have. We use ‘’luck’’ to defend ourselves what we did wrong. I wonder when will it change?

1.       Tame- people tamed cats and dogs so they could live with them
2.       Passive – His passive approach at work made him redundant
3.       Insurance – if you want to have access to hospitals you need to buy yourself health insurance

    There is a psychological theory which distinguishes between two kinds of people: those that assume that their life is controlled by external forces (luck, other people) and those who assume that they control what happens to them themselves. The people described in the video seem to be in the first group - with external locus of control.

As most of the world knows, we are getting closer and closer to the final season of game of thrones. Me myself I am a huge fan, so this week I decided to watch interview with Lena Headey, one of the main characters in the show. I Usually don’t enjoy talks with celebrities, but I quite enjoyed this one. At first it seemed a little awkward, but then it got really funny. It weird thou to see the most ruthless character from the game of thrones chatting and joking about her life! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ooyqP_RHmPQ 1. turnip - If you want to make a vegetable soup, you cant forget about turnip! 2. to root for - Cheerleaders root for their team to win 3. knackered - My mom comes home after work totally knackered.

This week I watched one more  video focusing on the fantasy world. It was supposed to spot the almost unseen mistakes made during filming the lord of the rings trilogy. I watched all three parts like a hundred times and I never spotted any of these small details. It was funny to realize how stupid some of these mistakes are. I still love the movie, and I think this video was not really in my type, the lectors voice seemed to be judging and making fun a little bit too harsh! I mean cmon, the movie still won Oscars for special effects and no one really captures these mistakes Quick glimpse – a quick, short look at someone, something To float – Alladins carpet was thought to be floating in the air Overalls – blue collar workers often wear overalls to work https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CHM_iO5Wtvk

This week I watched a video about Ed Wood, so called the worst director in the world. I saw one of his worst movies („Plan 9 from outer space”), but i didn't know lot about the director himself. Since he was a boy, he had a   fetish of womens clothes, he was even wearing lady underwear secretly during his time in the army . He was also a huge fan of Bela lugoci, an actor who played Draclua when Ed was young, his obssesion led to casting Bela in every Eds movie, he even used clips with Lugoci in his films after Bela died! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XvTUDznCm2Y Vocabulary 1.
