Today is the second class in our current four-class set. We will begin with our directions exercise.

The phrase of the week is, "spur of the moment." We use this phrase to describe 'then and there'; something that happens suddenly. For example, "Why did you decide to wear a suit to class?" "It was just spur of the moment." This refers to suddenly making a choice, and not giving it much thought. It is similar to impulsive behavior. 

The reading this week is about an independent Korean film and our listening material is from a Pharell song. However, the person saying the lyrics is Jay-Z. The vocabulary words will come from the reading. Please be able to describe them.

"Every time your name was brought up/
I would act all nonchalant in front of an audience/
Like if you was just another shorty I put the naughty on/
But uh, truth be told you threw me for a loop, this Hov/
I'm too old to be frontin' what I'm feeling/
Denzelin', acting like you ain't appealing when you are/
Stuntin' like you ain't my only girl, when you are/
I'm ready to stop when you are"
