Girl, Be Indepdent


I had a tough week, presentation, test, quiz and assignment due. Although I am feeling tired now, I still would like to write a journal before I go to get some sleep.
There were ten presentations during the week, I would say we all did a good job. From each presentation, I can observe that all of classmates put a lot of efforts on the project. Also, one interesting observe is that most of presentation were related to Mr. Prince Charming. So, today, I would like to discuss a little bit more about t Mr. Charming again.
Mr. Charming, in other words, is the Mr. Perfect. In the fairy, Mr. Charming is described as Mr. Prince, the one with a wealthy, image of hero, and high-social class background. So, all the girls are crazy about him. Why these girls crazy about him, what are the reasons Mr Charming so popular? The most important reason I can think of is his fortune and power. As the story mentioned, Mr Charming is the prince of the kingdom. Namely, Mr. Charming does not only have money, he also has strong power on people. Therefore, if girls once marry him, she and her family will climb to another social class. Despite the power, the another advantage of marrying Mr. Charming is that whatever dreams the girl have, will eventually come true after she marry him. In addition, Mr. charming is also a handsome gentleman. However, there is a question I would propose is that what if Mr prince Leave the lucky girl. what is she going to do since all her life depends on the perfect man.
Coco Channel is the found of the famous brand Channel. it famous all of world, such as Channel Perfume, Channel bag. But how many people know the story behind the outstanding brand. Mrs Channel was raised up by Chunch since her mother passed away. In order to start a new family, her father left her and her sister to church and lied to them he would go to America working. One day, Little Channel saw her father on the street and discovered truth. She was heart breaking at that moment, but she did not tell her sister. Because she has great passion for design clothing, she gets a job in a clothing design store after she left church. When the time passed by, she meet a her My Charming , who is a gentleman and handsome as well. She gave up her career to live with her Mr. Charming for one and half year. At the end, she left the gentleman because she realizes that her Mr. Charming would never marry her due to the reason that she was born a low social class. After the second time heart breaking , she focus on her career. With a friend’s help, she opens up the first Channel store. It is a typical story of how woman fall in love with a man, and how she back up after the man left. Also, I believe there are a lot of similar stories in today’s society. Husband left wife or boyfriend dumps girlfriends. Some people can handle it, but some people cannot , so they even choose suicide after their significant other left them. What a tragedy!
In contrasting the female charater in fairy tale and the sotry of CoCo Channel, I would like to say that if girls have a dream to marry a Mr Charming, that is totally understandable; but she should not only marry a man with a purpose or depends on him for everything, she should have depend on herself such as having her own career like Mrs. Channel.
