Hey everyone! 👋 Today’s expression is “slippery slope.” 👉 It means a situation where one small step leads to a chain of negative or dangerous events that are hard to stop. Basically, once you start, things can quickly get out of control. Origin: This expression comes from the literal image of slipping down a steep, icy hill — once you lose your footing, it’s hard to stop yourself. Over time, it became a metaphor for decisions or actions that lead to worsening consequences. ❄️ Examples: • Skipping one class can be a slippery slope to falling behind. 📚 • If you start lying about small things, it can turn into a slippery slope. 😬 • That shortcut seems harmless, but it could be a slippery slope. ⚠️ Now it’s your turn! 💬 Drop your own sentence using “slippery slope” below 👇 WE LEARN FROM EACH OTHER! 🤝 English Expressions page in the Classroom 👉https://www.skool.com/lme/classroom/c7105c70?md=a0522a36e24d4286a880b2f958b8f1ea

As many of you know, I cut my own hair. I decided to cut my hair today, but my health condition is still...cloudy~ Well, I successfully cut my hair. But... I used the wrong trimmers. My hair is now extremely short. Like...I'm almost like @Serge Gray and @Bruno Dart I'm more like @Alex Understated and @Wei Jiang I COULD share a photo...but I'm still in shock. My wife is in Boston and she will see me tomorrow. Depending on her reaction...I will show myself to you all!!!! Personally, I feel great! I love a buzzzzzz cut! But I look like a peanut~

I’ve been learning English since I was 13, but for a long time it was the classic “silent English” — lots of books, almost no speaking. That’s why I’m here. I want to get more confident, think less in Chinese, and actually talk to people from different countries. I grew up speaking a southern Chinese dialect, not Mandarin, so switching languages isn’t new to me. Back in school, even writing in standard Chinese felt tough because my brain always defaulted to my dialect. But after years of practice and living in different cities, Mandarin eventually became completely natural. So I’m hoping English will follow the same path — slowly becoming part of my daily life. Right now I’m based in Shenzhen, super close to Hong Kong. I used to work as a data engineer, and whenever I wasn’t working, I was traveling. I’ve been around more than ten provinces in China — sometimes by bike, sometimes driving, sometimes just taking whatever public transport existed. I also know Shenzhen and Hong Kong really well. If anyone here is thinking about visiting China, feel free to reach out. I’d love to help plan your trip for free. And if you ever need any remote help, I’m always happy to lend a hand.
