The Butterfly Circus

In our first International English class we watched a short movie called "The Butterfly Circus". This movie was about a showman who was travelling around with his circus. During their tour they discovered a man who had no arms or legs. The man without limbs was not being treated well, and people were looking down at him. After a while, himself and the circus troop started believing in him, and he got hope and dreams.

The movie was touching, and I thought the title was really good. At first the butterfly is just a butterfly larva, but then it starts changing into this beautiful creature. The man without limbs is like a butterfly; if you look

closer and don't judge by the first impression, there is a person with feelings

and thoughts underneath what you see.

Hi! My name is Cathrine, and I am 17 years old. In my spare time I like to listen to music, play the guitar and sing. This is going to be my "International English" blog. International English is a new subject for me, so I'm looking forward to finding out what it is really about. I hope that during this class I will get better at talking and understanding English as a language, and I also hope that I will learn about other things as well. I will use this blog to answer tasks that my teacher gives me, as well as writing about things we have done in class, texts we have read or movies we have seen.
I'm looking forward to this year and I hope I will learn a lot!
