Paula Strada on 23 Oct 12It's interesting that the image of the shopper is a woman. This follows the stereotype of women spending what men earn. The image seems to be for other women who can relate to the shopping habit this image refers to.

Jackie Settimio on 23 Oct 12I understand what this is saying about being frugal. My grandparents grew up in the depression, and constatntly save save save money. I also think about the extrem couponers.

I live by this quote. Going to thrift stores and going to yard sales take up most of my shopping. My roommate thinks it is gross to wear other people's hamidowns, but when i see the get the most bang for your buck, I think of the quote, "One man's trash is another one's treasure." -
As a college student. I feel like I am always looking to save my money, and get more "bang for my buck" as you are demonstrating with this saying and image. I love being able to get great deals and save money.

Hi Leah, I'm a sale assistant so this is quite interesting topic for me. When I'm at work, I look at the people and think "that woman can be a millionaire". That helps me to sell when I don't wonder "She's poor, she can't buy anything". I think we should see the line between buying way too much and just spending money wisely.

It will heal before you're married example - 3 views

-
It will heal before you're married is a reassuring way to remind a physically or emotionally injured child that everything will be okay with time. Here you see a mother comforting a child after he falls off his bike, which is probably the perfect time for a person to use this phrase, "It will heal before you're married."
-
So true:) Child forgets more easily. Adult´s should learn something for children, joy of life!! Nice picture indeed:)
-
-
Hey, I really liked your picture. :) It's funny how that phrase feels so anoying! I still remember the time when I was little and something terrible happened and the my parents didn't seem to take it seriously enough. Everything seems so much bigger for a child. Luckily a child forgets easily and a child's wounds heal faster than an adult's. ;)
-
Hello Samantha,I thought your saying was funny, the meaning is clear, but we don`t have anything similar in finish, at least that I know of. Now days the saying can also be problematic, we live in the modern age when people can get married several times in their lifetime and many don't ever want to get married. What could be its modern analog? It`ll heal before you get your own house? or permanent job? :) What do you think? -
I haven't heard that phrase before but I think it's good one. It's funny how we think that our problems are so big but when time goes on we realize they actually weren't that big. Maybe Nicholas Spark said it better: "When you're struggling with something, look at all the people around you and realize that every single person you see is struggling with something, and to them, it's just as hard as what you're going through."

I chose this image to help illustrate the phrase, "Does that ring a bell?", which I used to use throughout my childhood. This image of a mug is an example of how the phrase can be used. Pavlov is a famous psychologist and scientist, and this mug begs the question, does this person (Pavlov) "ring a bell", or in other words sound familiar to you?

That picture is good to illustrate your phrase (that link didn't work btw). Do you think that phrase "does that ring a bell" is just good or do you see something not so good in it? How people used it in school? In Finland, teacher usually asks students something and then says "does that ring a bell". It's maybe quite old-fashioned way to teach and I think it's better if students remember word (Pavlov example) for themselves.

Hi everybody! My name is Sarah and I'm a junior at Penn State. The saying 'don't judge a book by it's cover' is something that has been said to me throughout my life. It isn't literally talking about judging books, but it is talking about anything. It means that you shouldn't make opinions about somebody or something before you actually get to know them. The most popular example of this is when someone judges somebody based on their appearance. They are quick to think different opinions about someone based on how they look before they get to know them. This is not a good way to live your life because who knows how great someone could be if you look past their looks. Here is a video of a woman who isn't very attractive but has the most amazing talent that nobody would have guessed. At first, she looks like a frumpy old woman who was going to sing a song on national television and make a fool of herself. Many people made that judgement from just looking at the outside, not knowing what was on the inside.
-
This is a great example of your idiom. We tend to think of elderly people has helpless and even useless, but this woman has a wonderful talent to share. This video made us rethink the stereotype of the elderly.
-
This woman really showed the judges, who seemed to write her off before she even opens her mouth and then she kind of turns around this stereotype about old people or plain people, it shows not to judge people from their appearance and age.
-

I love saying "don't judge a book by it's cover" it's just really hard to remember in everyday life. I also think like that but always when I first time meet someone I watch how he looks. Is he tall and what he's wearing. It's really superficial and I try not to do that. How you teach that phrase to children when you (or at least I) judge a book by it's cover?

Please look at the image at the top of the page and not the blog post posted by the blogger. The image is an example of the saying, "Life isn't fair get used to it".

This image reminds me also of the saying "being a big fish in a little pond" or "being a small fish in a big pond" when referring to how we feel in relation to the people around us, whether we feel important or insignificant. I remember experiencing these feelings especially in coming to college. When I first got to Penn State I didn't know many people and I felt so insignificant and lost in a sea of faces when I first got here. Three years later, I feel more like a big fish, when I can walk around and run into people that I know and feel like I have more purpose here.

i really love the photo representation. It really sums up how you feel when something isn't going your way and you feel it isn't deserved.

Hi, That photo is really pretty and interesting! I'm maybe little naïve when I think that you can choose the way people treat you. If you let them treat you badly, life usually won't be fair but if you change your attitude, and life is still not fair, then I let people say "that's not fair". You never have to get used to it. We have to make everything we can, so life is fair for us. And yes, there are people who are richer than you or prettier than you but it's you own attitude affects. Look that link, it will tell you how I think that beauty thing example: http://mariecoquette.tumblr.com/post/32878784785

Don't cry over spilled milk - 0 views
-
Hi my name is Paula Strada and I am a junior at Penn State. One phrase I heard a lot growing up was "don't cry over spilled milk." This phrase is used when something happens, usually and accident, and someone gets more upset than the situation calls for. By saying "don't cry over spilled milk" you're asking the person to calm down, and realize that it's not something to dwell on. This phrase is common between adults and children. Children tend to get upset, or even cry, when they make a mistake on accident and don't understand that adults will not be upset with them. This phrase helps the child calm down. I still hear this phrase as an adult as well. As a stressed college student its easy to get upset about little things that don't go as planned. http://www.cnn.com/2012/07/05/world/europe/qmilch-milk-sustainable-fashion/index.html This link is to an article on CNN about a designer using fabric made out of milk instead of water. There no need to cry over your spilled milk now because it could be used for an eco-friendly fabric!

Hi! We actually have a a common phrase with a very similar meaning in Finnish languege: "Älä tee kärpäsestä härkästä." It sounds funny for you I bet! ;) I would translate it like this: "Don't make a fly into a bull." It also states that someone is making too much of a fuss of a small thing.
-
This also reminds me of don't make a mountain out of a mole hill.

Hi! My name is Laura and I'm studying special education in University of Helsinki My saying is " Toivossa on hyvä elää", which means (as I see it) that it's good to live with a hopeful mind because you won't get as much as you wish for. It's a saying with a hint of sarcasm.. I put a picture of a lottery coupon and a hopeful person filling it. I think it reflects my point of view about this saying.
