The flashing streets

     Hello, guys. It's been a long time! First ao all, I would like to apologise to Erika that I was absent today and didn't do homework during the weekend. Can I excuse me, please? Last weekedn was toally hectic. After the seminar which was absolutely useful and inspiring I had to help my sister because she leaves for Spain to travel to Europe. I stayed at my sister's and I tried to write an essay but it wasn't working! It was much worse than before. I was in trouble posting one, the cutted writing. do yu remember? Also, today I was taking a little exam to listen to English writing class for the next semester. The way to listen tothat class has changed. They separate the students into three level classes and I have to wait for the result. That's why I was absent today's class, sorry again. It took 30 minutes but this morning was like a war. My roommate made the next semester's timetable and I was helping her.
     Anyway, from tomorrow I will be a good student AGAIN. Trust me. :)

     I want to talk about the streets full of flashing signboards and walls. I will tell you my opinion based on the seminar that I attended.
     Benetton is an Italian company that has been doing the global campaigns especially against the racism. Nowadays, they are changing the show windows from the normal one to the attractive one. They made several shops' windows flashing with huge screens and it's really attracting people.
It's in Milan, Italy.


     The whole windows are filled with the screens so people can notice easily it'd benetton. It's beautiful, but it can harm the city's view.
     What I want to say is if the flshing sowwindows are good or bad to see. 
     I think Milian is a quite historical city like most of European cities are. However, does it fit to the city's atmosphere,I mean. I know Milan is not oldschool but the building are very gorgeous and gothic. The dazzling showwindows and signboard cannot be matched as we discussed before.

     Too much flashing signboards or showwindows are not good to see because it's too much. In addition, cosidering how it would go with the cities' mood is as important as how they show their tech and creativity.

  1. Yes, you're right. Advertising can be positive or negative. I absolutely love Benetton's ads and the way they use them to encourage diversity.

    *I'm looking forward to you being a good student again, Whidly ;)

  2. If I were a citizen in that city, I insist we could not built flashing sigh boards! Although that is also beautiful, we should protect the old things. It is right that is not mine, but that is belong to all over the world's human. So they should protect them with not build like that.

  4. This subject is similar to our past class subject, isn't it?
    Flashing brightly everywhere really bothers us!
