Is the impact of globalization positive or negative?

It’s hard to decide whether it had a positive or negative influence on our lives. On one hand the problem of hunger was overcame, a lot of new plants and animals were brought to Europe. Unluckily a lot of people suffered during this time, which at the end caused destruction of many cultures like Aztecs or Incas. To sum up it had many good consequences, made at the expense of many deaths of native americans. 

What does it mean to be a real lady?

A real lady to me is a woman which treats other people with kindness. She can cope with variety of problems simultaneously staying classy. It’s also a person who well takes care of herself both mentally and phisically. A real woman means being confident and empowering. Ladies these days are perceived very different than 100 years ago. They have always been intelligent and smart and nowadays they have an oppurtunity to express themselves. In conclusion ladies these days should be confident, smart, resourceful and classy.

Does school prepare us for life?

School prepares us for life only in some aspects. Its curriculum doesn’t include vital things such as creativity or social skills. Our creativity can only escalate in a few tasks, but only if you kind of override the rules, which sometimes can lead to a bad mark. Meeting and talking to people is very limited by rules and short breaks. In conclusion school is pretty important, but we could get along without it.

Would you like to turn vegetarian?

Actually I am a vegeterian for over a year now. I made up my mind not to eat meat, because I assume that if I am not able to kill animal, I won’t make use of butcher. Another crucial aspect is that meat in our times is very unhealty. Thanks to antibiotics which are served to all animals, both healthy and sick. In my opinion either eating corpses or antibiotis doesn’t really seem encouraging.

What does it mean to be a real man in our times?

About 100 years ago being a real man meant having a wife with several children and an ability to work hardly for many hours. Hopefully nowadays being a „real man” means being responsible for our relatives and bravely facing problems . People can do anything they want unless it does not harm anyone. That being said,  a real man is a person who can either have very visible muscles and a typical job like broker or a drag queen. There is no need to categorise people into real and not real, because it only makes our lifes more complicated and limits somebody’s freedom. 

Is 600£ for a night at the Mandarin Oriental a good value of money?

I think that a night at the Mandarin Oriental is a complete waste of money for ordinary people. When comparing it to other luxurious hotels, it makes no sense to spend 600£ just because of its fame. Of course if you are a millionaire,spending some extra money doesn’t make any difference. However for most of us it would better to invest that money in something else like travelling or education. A stay in this luxurious hotel is a great deal only for wealthy people. 

Is it possible that we will stop being a throwaway society?

In my opinion it is barely possible that we will stop being a throwaway society. Nowadays people live much faster than their ancestors, which causes the need for an immediate react for anything that happens. They prefer to have an easy access to cheap products with poor quality at the same time rather than a slightly more expensive things that will last them years. Considering the fact, that they use those things usually only once, they quickly get rid of them. Based on these arguments a chance to change other peoples behaviours is non-viable.

Why do so many people believe in supernatural things?

Many people are still believing in supernatural things such as ghosts or UFOs. It is kind of strange in the 21st century, when everyone has an easy access to science thanks to the Internet. Their beliefs are probably caused either by the religion they are professing or by their lack of understanding for some scientifically proven facts. A great example of that is an ancient greece, where people used to believe that all good and bad was happening because of a better or a worser mood of some god.
Is a sense of humor important in life? Sense of humor is very useful in everyones life. By that we can cope with many stressful situations, also talking to new people is much easier. Many celebrities say that a sense of humor is their biggest secret weapon, because it encourages people to start a conversation. Some scientists believe, that a sense of humor is a mark of smart people. Also it is useful when somebody has a worse day, by our sense of humor we can somehow comfort them.
