Wonderful Semester.


Hi .. first of all I want to apologize to all of you for being late to post my topic " again " :S .. 

but .. in the last class Nobi didn't talk about the blog .. and also he didn't send a reminder, anyway that was my bad .. 

what I'm going to talk about is ; 

1- Almost 3 Months of English only ! 

2- The location is Wells hall.

3- The group is containing of 21 students. 

4- The leaders for these students are really good teachers who called Nobi and Ruelaine. 

5-  All of us spent a wonderful semester , enjoying the classes, lessons, Parties. 

6- During this semester all of the students learned a lot of useful things , in the English language or somethings else. 

7- In Nobi's Classes we used to be in groups of pairs .. talking about the lesson and also out of the lesson if we finish talking about it. 

8- That was a good thing because every class you might be with another student and you've to talk with him/her .. in this way the relationship between the students become stronger. 

9- On the other side, in Ruelaine classes everyone has his/her seat .. which made in order to separate students who're talking the same language, by this way the student should talk English with each other which make their speaking skill much better. 

10 - Finally, I want to thank every one starting with the teachers ending by the students. What a great semester .. I really enjoyed it .. and I hope everyone enjoyed the classes. 


Nobi .. thanx a lot .. I wish you've a great life.

Study online or on campus

1. Today, I received a phone call from one of my high school friends. She told me that she is studying a college course on the Internet. I know being a college student has been a dream for her. However, she does not like study on campus, where she thinks has limited freedom.

2. Should distance learning and online computer classes replace classroom learning? This is really a tough question to answer, however, after considering the pros and cons, I hold the opinion that students should study in classroom. The reasons are as follows.

3. On the first hand, distance learning online means students study far away from the professor and other students. This could forbid them from making full communication with teachers and other students, although they can communicate with computers or phone. It is more convenient for students discuss within a classroom with the professor and classmates.

4. Besides, students are young, and maybe they cannot control themselves, so if they study lonely, they may have a lower efficiency compared with studying together with many other students. Thus distance learning online is bad for study in the long run.

5. In addition, modern computer technology is not stable enough for a long time, so study maybe disturbed by net incidents. There are many factors that may affect the study, for instance, the speed of Internet, virus in the Internet, and even bad weather condition could disrupt the Internet.

6. So students may not be able to study consistently as they do in a classroom.

7. However, studying in a classroom not only makes students study more comfortable and efficient, but let them have chances to learn other necessary social skills, for instance, the skill of communication with other people, skill of handling problems within a group, and independence from family. These are all very important from their latter life and work.

8. Generally speaking, distance learning is not a good way for study, as the computer technology is not stable, which would disturb the study, and it is not comfortable for students to communicate with teachers and classmates.

9. What is more, distance learning may forbid students from learning other social skills. So if one have to make a choice between online study and study in a classroom, it is better to select the second one.

10. This is my opinion about this situation, but different people have different opinions, I believe that everyone could be found a proper way for themselves based on their own situations.

Should children be educated at home or in school?


Should children be educated at home or in school?












1- In most countries in the world, governments require children to attend schools in which trained teachers are responsible for educating the children using an approved curriculum.
2- However a significant number of parents believe that it is much better for their children to be educated at home by the people who know them and their needs best.
3- They are unhappy with the quality or depth of education offered in the schools, or has other reasons why they feel that traditional schools are not suitable for their children.
4- One reason is social factors. Parents worry that their children will be forced into antisocial behavior by peer pressure.
5- They believe that the good behavior they have taught the child will be lost in school. Another reason is concern over the quality of schooling available.
6- Schools frequently have large classes. They are often under-funded, and staffed by teachers without sufficient knowledge of their subjects. Subjects such as the family’s religion or language may not even be available in the school.
7- Other parents may disagree with the aims of the school curriculum, preferring for academic, social or cultural reasons to keep their children separate. Finally, some children with special needs may need particular parental care.
8- However, there are many arguments in favor of sending children to conventional schools. The first is that the children will be exposed to other children. These children may represent either a cross-section of society or a narrow group, but in either case the children will interact with each other and develop social skills.
9- A second point is that the children will learn to function outside the family. They will not be dependent on their parents for their educational, emotional and social needs.
10- A third point is that the children will find it easier to integrate when they finish school, as they eventually will, when they start work or college.
11- Overall, while many parents work hard to teach their children at home, conventional schools are still the right choice for most children. Schools are not perfect, but they seem to be a proven way of preparing our children for the real world and to face the life problems by self-dependence. ((DID YOU AGREE WITH ME OR NOT? ))

Study Aboard Maks People Know a lot.

1. Studying aboard changed people’s life. Studying out your country was rare back days, but when the countries started developing people start to study a board.
2. At first, I was so difficult to leave and live out of your country because you will face a new people, culture and new community which are different from the one that you came from, but these days it’s easier than before.
3. Transportation is one of the most thing that makes study aboard is easy. You can fly reach any place that you want in short time.
4. People were afraid about studying a broad because most of them have no experience in that. Another thing that makes a broad easier is communication that makes people connect with their families and friends.
5. These days, the people who studying abroad are not just get study, they learn and know more than that.
6. First thing that they learn Self-reliance so they have to do everything by their selves such as, cooking, clothes washing and facing any sudden situation without help.
7. Making new friends from different countries also is one of the most things that people can get from study abroad like our class.
8. However, students can know or get more information about another culture and traditions from the other students.
9. For me, I learned many things since I came here. Every day I learn new thing.
10. I hope that you guys are having fun here and learning new interesting things and I hope you to share what did you learn since you came USA?

Talent Show^^



Hello, my dear classmates, today I want to talk about the talent show which put on the Thursday.

1. This Thursday we had a wonderful talent s
how which was made up of several great performances, such as chorus, solo,peom, band singing and ect.


2.Not only students enjoyed the show energetically, but also a lot of teachers took a active part in this talent show.

3. In whole the talent show, we could find many familiar figures form different performances.

4.Star gave us a wonderful Chinese pop song, which is
very famous in our country. Jacob brought an English song and he made the atmosphere much higher. If you paid attention on the lyrics of the chorus' songs, you could find a part of them are in Chinese!

5.I remember that someone used to tell
me each person who comes from the Arabic is a poet, and on this talent show Ahmed's poem really attracted most audiences.


6.In my mind, Green Men must be the programme which was most full of imagination. This was an interesting short
movie, although we can't heard any words through the movie. This was our dear Japanese classmates to palyact.

7.There were a lot of teachers joined this talent show. Some brought the band singing, some took part in the chorus, some of them just worked hard behind the curtain.



8.one of interesting thing was that we saw song people wear the Arabic traditional clothes. Though they had not performance, they also showed us the culture of Arabic.


9.This talent show, there came two very special audience, the lucky babies, Abdullah's son and Nobi's baby~~as I can't find Nobi thus I just took the photo for "little Abdullah", therefore I should say sorry to "little Nobi".


10.Now I really expect the next talent show. Only one advice I want to suggest is, maybe next time we can hold it on Friday^^Thus, we can have more time to enjoy the party^____^

I can Speak with animals ~ Do you believe me ~

    1. Before few weeks I heard in Nobi's class most of the students do not believe that animals talks. Well, I'm telling you know animals can talk,and they have their own language to contact others.
    2. In addition, we can understand them and we can know what they are saying. How ,when ? all these questions will be answered ,when you know what happened to me when I meet a horse in Bahrain Beach.
    3. Actually,I used to ride horses when I was a chilled ,but when I get older I was afraid to get closer from them. However, after this story I am not afraid any more.
    4. The story begin when I went to Bahrain with my family on the festival day before 3 years ago. It was interesting day and we had fun. At the night we decided to go to the beach.
    5. When I went to the beach I saw a brown hours standing , He was crouching his head. I was not sure what was he doing. The only thing that I was sure about it is my strong feeling.
    6. I felt some thing strange in my heart when I saw him. Some thing made me feel sad about him. That horse was different. he was poor , tired and milquetoast.
    7. I do not know what happened to my fear. My heart told me that this horse want to say something to you ( Nuha). ,so my strong feeling pushed me to get closer from him.
    8. While I am little bit closer to him I asked my father if it is ok to touch the horse, he said " yes " and he tried to touch the horse in order to show me that every thing is fine but my poor horse would not let him.
    9. I asked my father to go a way and leave me with him. I stand in front of him without fear . My heart was beating. I tried to touch him ,but he refused.
    10. I did not give up .My heart told me I have to talk with him. So I stood and looked at his eyes and I said ( what is wrong with you poor horse ).He was very sad. He did not want to see any one. He was moving his head to tell me ( just go I do want any one , leave me alone) , but when he sow my eyes watching him carefully and sensitivity he stopped moving his eyes.
    11. Then He started to look at my eyes and he started to talk. He said ( I feel lonely . I'm old now and they just keep riding me . I'm so sad and I'm ill because of this bridle )
    12. Suddenly he cried. I sow his tears. Then he get closer from me and he put his mothe between my hand and he open it in order to show me how the bridle cause him pain. I could not move and I cried with him.
    13. I tried to open the bridle to free him ,but some one came to me and he said "no you do not have to open it" . I refused and I said "it cause him pain if you wont let me to open it at least you must widen it ". He agreed with me and he helped me to widen the bridle.
    14. Finally ,after the man go, The horse came closer to me and he bow in front of me he said ( Thank you at least their is no bridle pain) . Then he get more closer to me and he put his head in front of my shoulder and he push my back to him with his head in order to huge me. I cried and I huge him
    15. So this is one of my true stories with the poor horse, and I have other stories with other animals and different things.
    16. In my conclusion, I just want to say believe it or not, I can speak to animals even plants and every things ,and you can speak to them too if you have sensitive feeling .
    17. Do you believe me now ?
    18. ( I think students well kill me because I wrote more that 10 points) Sorry .

The Japanese Instrument “Taiko”

  1. Today, I want to introduce the “Taiko” (Japanese traditional drum). This is one of popular instruments in Japan. This is an important traditional instrument.
  2. Why do I choice this topic about Japanese traditional instruments? Because as you know that some Arabic classmates introduced their own traditional instruments in Ruelaine’s class.
  3. I didn’t know these Arabic instruments at all. I feel these sounds so strange and fun.
  4. So, I want to introduce my country traditional instruments and hope to fun for foreigner classmates, too.
  5. Off cause, there are a lot of other traditional instruments in Japan. There are such as some-stringed musical instrument, other drums and kind of flutes.
  6. But most activity and popularly traditional instruments is “Taiko”. And usually this instrument is necessary for general Japanese festival.
  7. This has heads on both sides of the drum body, and a sealed resonating cavity. And this is also characterized by a high amount of tension on the drums heads.
  8. And player is using wood stuck “Bachi”. The player strikes “Taiko” by this wood stick “Bachi”.
  9. There are how many different size of “Taiko”. So, player striking this instrument is dynamic and fun.
  10. Anyway, if you have enough time and interested in this instrument, I recommend listening this instrument sound.

Thank you!

The Sky



1. There are a lot of natural beauty in the MSU, and we can get close to nature easily.

2. My favorite place in the MSU is Red Cedar River see from the Bogue bridge.

3. It is amazing beauty that especially early morning after the rain because it is foggy.

4. However,recently I often feel the beauty of the sky more than it.

5. I have little thought about that feeling in my life up to now.

6. Because it might be that I grew up in the city and worked till late at night in Japan.

7. But I can become to think deeply something while I look out the sky in the MSU now.

8. I strongly feel the sky of the Michigan is especially large, so I like this place.

9. I think everyone have also favorite place and scene in the MSU.

10. Please tell me if you have a good information about the place.

Do you have a role model?

  1. I have many people around me who are really good people. But the one of those people is closest to me and my role model. Just the one is my mother. Now I tell you about the reason.
  2. First of all, my mother is very cheerful, so she makes people happy. Especially her mind is young for her age. She likes a popular song which likes young people, for example, She likes R&B, ballad, sometimes Rap.
  3. Generally in Korea, old people like a song such as "bbong jjak"(other word is 'trot', English meaning is 'a walk'). And her fashion is also young, she wears a bracelet on ankle.
  4. Not only does she makes me happy these reasons, but she also helps someone well.
  5. About ten years ago, a little girl cried in front of my house at that time it was raining. Besides it was cold, a little girl shivered with cold.
  6. So my mother brought her to my home. Because she got wet in the rain, my mother dressed a little girl in my clothes, my mother gave her something to eat.
  7. And then my mother called some there to search for her home. Eventually a little girl came back home.
  8. I remember that my mother always helps someone, when I went to an elementary school student, my mother gave a lunch box to a poor student. Also she supported my sister's friend for financial help.
  9. It is very difficult to help someone, because this needs a sacrifice. But my mother effort to practice helping someone either am I.
  10. These have influenced upon me, I respect and love her. Can I grow up just like her?

I have to apologize for my lateness.

Collection



1. Have you ever collected something interesting to you? (Stamp, flag, the money, and symbol of the country.)


2. I guess most people tried to collect something interesting to them when they were young even if they did not collect something yet.


3. Here is what I am collecting in the U.S.A.


4. I prefer to collect “Starbucks Cup” made for collection. These cups are only sold in the U.S.A.


5. These cups are for people who want to collect, and these could prove where I have been in the U.S.A because city name is printed on the cups.


6. In addition, these cups are only sold at Starbucks coffee shop, so when I traveled around the U.S.A, I always were looking for Starbucks coffee shop to buy “Collection Cup”.


7. So when I moved from Georgia State to Michigan, I drove throughout more than 5 huge cities, Atlanta, Cincinnati, and Detroit.


8. I just bought 3 cups of the city because I did not find the Starbucks coffee shop at 2 cities. Actually I found the Starbucks, but there were not “collection cup”.


9. If you want to remind where you have been in the U.S.A, the collection you like is a good way that can remember where you have been although you come back to your country.


10. Anyways, I don’t want to say “Good bye Kim” because we are going to meet Kim as soon. This is not “End”. This is “And” for him. I hope he will be safe for traveling. Thank you for everything Kim.

Cell Phone

1. There are too many people use cell phones of the world, in China, the number of it is 470 million people use cell phone.

2. The first cell phone was made by Martin Cooper in April, 1973.

3. The development of cell phone is so fast, Martin Cooper hoped that people can put cell phone into their bodies one day.

4. Cell phone is a useful tool for people, it also made people live easily.

5. A research was made by a Britainic scientist showed us it is bad for our cerebral cells if we use cell phone all day.

6. Cell phone also cause the problems of education because many students use their cell phone during the classes.

7. If we lost our cell phones, we will worry about our personal information leakage.

8. In Hongkong, the percentage of use cell phone is the highest in the world, it is 164.1%.

9. Cell phone become the part of fashion.

10. Finally, I am so sad because I lost my cell phone today. :(

Similarities and Differences between Korea and U.S.

1. Every country has a culture that is distinguished from other country. A culture makes a difference and similarity. Many similarities exist in different country and differences also exist. It is natural thing to existing similarities and differences.

2. There are similarities and differences between going to school in South Korea and the U.S.A.

3. One difference between Korea and U.S.A is that Korean girls go to school with makeup on their faces. In Korean universities, many women makeup their face when they go to school. Because Korean women usually like makeup with their face. They interested in fashion trends a lot. So, they put on makeup not only going to school, but also when they go to anywhere. It is easy to see that Korean girl’s makeup their face in subway or bus.

4. However, American university girls do not use makeup. I think that American university girls have a useful idea which is makeup.

5. Another difference between Korea and U.S.A is that there are many international students in America. America is a multinational country including many other races, cultures and language. Therefore, it is natural to have mixed culture, race, and language.

6. There are also international students in Korean universities but just Chinese or Japanese. I think that Korea is the developing country and not popular so many people do not know South Korea, well. For this reason, many people tend to have a think that Korea is not proper to study abroad.

7. In addition, in South Korea it is considered in proper for an advanced study to many other country students except Korean language or culture.

8. However, the U.S.A is the most forward among nations in education field. Because U.S.A has a high quality civilization and educational know-how because of these reasons, many people want to go to U.S.A.


9. Besides the differences above, one similarity between Korea and U.S.A is the kind of homework and quiz which students have to do.

10. In Korea, professor gives homework to students for their preparation of lessons and review. Generally, the homework includes reading a book, presentation or free writing like MSU. Students are required to submit homework due to setting date and make formations which have date, name and title.

11. Quiz is also same style with U.S.A. In Korea, students are given a test, every one weekend. Quiz style is review or opinion about free writing before students did.

  7. And there are 3 out count in the each ining, and each team have attack, defense each ining.
  8. It means each team has 27out count in the game, and total 54 out count in the game.
  9. America has the biggest league that called major league and that has 30 teams.
  10. Recently, there is world competition like world cup that called WBC, and it opens 2 times and Japan wins 2times.

Drugs

Hello everybody,


Hope you’re enjoying the summer time. As you know that we had a really good Basketball game between the teachers and the student, so I would like to thank all of them “Great Job”


Nobi, you have a nice baby “God Bless him”



I’m going to talk about drugs.



1-Drugs become one of the most dangerous weapons in the World these days and one of the main sources of the pain. Many people haven’t realized that we use drugs in our daily life.



2-Nowadays drugs became affordable and useful in our lives such as, caffeine, nicotine, alcoholic, aspirin etc.

3-these drugs called legal drugs where we can find it easily, like caffeine in coffee or nicotine in cigarettes. In general, drugs affect our bodies gradually.

4-Let’s take nicotine for example, the people who smokes cigarettes they always looking for nicotine and they also feel headache when they trying to stop that habit and am one of them. However, the people who drink coffee so much, they feel the same.

5-Prescription drugs are kind of medicines which illegal to use without permission or prescription from the doctor

6-It's not legal, or safe, for people to use these medicines any way they want or to buy them from people who are selling them illegally like sleep pills, anti-depressant and pain reliever like morphine

7-There is huge percentage of the users of these kinds of drugs in the United States especially at the age of 20s.

8-Marijuana, weeds, cocaine and herein are the same in the effect. That kind called Ecstasy drugs that make people feeling happy, high and energy which is illegal to use, became popular between some people.

9-The effects of these drugs are direct and so fast. By the time, the body will ask for more. However, Ecstasy Drugs can damage the brain, heart, and other important organs.

10-Cocaine, for instance, can cause a heart attack. And some of the users died with overdose of drugs.

I know its boring topic, but that’s what came in my mind since I feel so depressed.

The Korean Conflict

  1. I want to write about the Korean Conflict. Korea is separated 2 countries until now, because of Korean Conflict. One of them called North Korea and one of them called South Korea.
  2. Korea was a Japanese colony at 1910 to 1945. At that time, most Korean think, we want to become independence from Japan. They think, we have to learn advanced knowledge for our independence.
  3. At that time, there are 2 strongest countries America and Soviet. Some Korean went to America and some Korean went to Soviet for learning knowledge. People who went to America learned democracy and capitalism. People who went to Soviet learned communism and socialism.
  4. All of Korean fight to Japan and at that time Korea was helped America and Soviet. Then 1945, finally Korea became independence.
  5. However, there were some problems. At that time, Korea had 2 ideologies and one of them argued democracy is better than communism and one of them argued communism is better than democracy. Most communism advocates lived in north and most democracy advocates lived in south.
  6. At that time called the Cold War. America and Soviet fought and they want to get more influence about Korea. Soviet helped communism advocates and America helped democracy advocates.
  7. Korea can’t unified until 1950 and June 25, 1950 Korean Conflict was outbreak, because North Korea invade South Korea. Korean Conflict continued for 3 years.
  8. Soviet helped North Korea in this conflict, so in the early war, South Korea loss most battles. However, U.N think, North Korea and Soviet are wrong and they dispatched many soldiers for helping South Korea. At that time, many countries dispatched their soldiers and America dispatched most soldiers.
  9. This conflict was not finish until 1953. South-North Korea were damaged much economy and life and many countries that dispatched their soldier are damaged through this conflict. Finally South-North Korea were stop fighting and made a truce.
  10. The war is not finish until now and these days South Korea and North Korea become another country. Especially, North Korea advocate isolationism, so North Korean can’t travel another country and another country people can’t travel North Korea.
  11. This is a great tragedy. Especially, this conflict cause many dispersed families. Among this war, many North Korean escaped south and many South Korean moved north. They can’t go to their hometown until now. My grandfather’s hometown is in North Korea and he can’t go his hometown for more than 50 years. He want to travel his hometown; however it is impossible now.
  12. Most South Korean want to unify and I want to unify too.

Father

1. Father is an ordinary man but plays an extraordinary role in each family.
2. Some people say that father is the most important person in the family. I show the same opinion with them.
3. Father is a person who devotes all himself to his children and he never says what he does for the family.
4. Words can not tell how much father means to me.
5. In fact, I didn’t realize how much I love my father until I came to the US .I often want to call my father to know what he is doing, whether he is happy , evenly I just want to make him know I miss him. But I seldom call my father when I was in China.
6. My father often tells me that in the US health and happy are the most important. Although he does not say he loves me, I can feel his love from his words.
7. Father seldom say ‘I love you’ though the feeling is always there. He always uses his ways that his words can not match to show his love.
8. I think you had better listen to the song which sings by Eric Clapton. You can feel the meaning that the song wants to explain.

Eric Clapton - My Father’s Eyes

Sailing down behind the sun,
Waiting for my prince to come.
Praying for the healing rain
To restore my soul again.

Just a toerag on the run.
How did I get here?
What have I done?
When will all my hopes arise?
How will I know him?
When I look in my father’s eyes.
My father’s eyes.
When I look in my father’s eyes.
My father’s eyes.

Then the light begins to shine
And I hear those ancient lullabies.
And as I watch this seedling grow,
Feel my heart start to overflow.

Where do I find the words to say?
How do I teach him?
What do we play?
Bit by bit, I’ve realized
That’s when I need them,
That’s when I need my father’s eyes.
My father’s eyes.
That’s when I need my father’s eyes.
My father’s eyes.

Then the jagged edge appears
Through the distant clouds of tears.
I’m like a bridge that was washed away;
My foundations were made of clay.

As my soul slides down to die.
How could I lose him?
What did I try?
Bit by bit, I’ve realized
That he was here with me;
I looked into my father’s eyes.
My father’s eyes.
I looked into my father’s eyes.
My father’s eyes.
My father’s eyes.
My father’s eyes.
I looked into my father’s eyes.

9. Father’s eyes show sternness, but more kindness, care and love. Fathers afford the best for their children and help their children to make some secret dreams come true. They are the greatest.
10. There are also many fathers who are in our class now. I believe that they are also the greatest father for their children.

The Twenty First Book ------The Boy and the Wolf; Folk Story



  1. Today I will tell you a story and I want you to extract the lessons from this story. I know the majority if not all know this story. Consider you have 21 books (stories) rather than 20. Sorry Nobi.

  2. Once upon a time, there was boy. He lived in a little village. Every day he goes out with his sheep until the evening.

  3. One day, the boy thought, I don't like this. The sheep do not talk and don't listen to me. What can I do? ……………… After moments, he cried “Wolf ... Wooooolf".

  4. In a few minutes, people came running from the village. They said “Where is the wolf?"

  5. “Oh, there is no wolf" the boy said. “I wanted to see you and talk to you" the people were not happy. They went back to the village and said "bad boy".

  6. Next day, the boy went out with his sheep. Again he did not want to be alone. He cried "Wolf .... Wolf"

  7. Again the people came but they did not find the wolf. They said “if you did that again we will not come".

  8. After days, the boy with his sheep was alone. Suddenly he heard something in the trees. It was wolf. “Help ... Help" cried the boy. "Wolf .... Wooooooolf"

  9. The people heard the boy but they did not come. They thought the boy was lying. The boy run away and the wolf killed and ate all the sheep "…….. Delicious!!!”

  10. What do you learn from this story (the lessons from this story)? And please suggest name for the boy. For example the boy is Chad ( sorry Chad>>>> you are the youngest one)!!!!!

Thank you and enjoy..............>

life in the Dorm

1- you can meet alot of people in the dorm for examble native Americans or international students which it help you with your language.

2- there is some good things and some bad things about living in the Dorm first of all you can meet people and you can make friends.

3- there is alot of people who dont live in the Dorm and they are international students so they dont even know how speak as the international student in the Dorm because the one how live in the Dorm he can Daily watch American peoples talking to each other or a friend of him or maybe his roomate.

4- also you can learn about the culture a bout your new friend.

5- if the student were living in the apartment and he can't cook it's going to be hard for him to eat so yes he can order or he go to the resturant but i can't imagine how he will spend alot of money on the food but the opposite thing about the student who live in the dorm he can go to the cafeteria and there is alot of the food that he choose and much cheeper.

6- the disadventage about the Dorms life is that you are sharing the bathrooms with every one in the floor.

7- there is sometimes alot of noise inside the rooms specialy during the weekends.

8- sometimes you will feel bored while you are in the room and most of the night or the day thinking alot about back home or your friends or bitting your nails.

9- the worst thing about living in the dorm is that you have to move every semester and it makes me sick i remembered in the last semester i moved all of my stuff for about 4 hours non stop resting because my room was a desaster.

10- i hope you will to like it because alot of people who choose the apartment inested of the dorm for many reasons and the same thing with the people who lived in the dorm i just gave you about the advantage and the disadvantage about the life in the Dorm.

"" What's the Best way to get The Information ""

Hey class .. I hope you're all good and having a good holiday . 

Any way ... maybe the title doesn't give the idea that I'm going to write about .. so, let me give you more information about the topic which will help u to understand .. anyway .. let's start:

1- There are several ways to get the information from!.

2- For example : Reading, listening and watching. 

3- What I want to talk about is, which one of these ways is the best !? .. I mean which one will give you better information and which one will be the most exciting ? 

4- Reading is the old way to get the information .. but it still one of the best! .. most people especially in America use the reading to get a new information and to spend there time in something useful. 

5- Listening is one of the new ways! .. people sometimes use the listening instead of reading .. because they think it's faster than reading and easier!.

6- Watching is the most technological way ! .. it's a new way .. most people like it because it's easy to use it .. and it gives more information in less time !

7- Now we know most or all the ways .. what's the best way !? .. and which one give user more information in less time !?

8- My opinion says, Watching and listening are the best .. actually watching include the listening so we it will be the best.

9- why ? let's get an example : if you watch a movie and you have the story of the movie in a book .. which one would you like to choose !? .. I think most of us will choose watching the movie instead if reading the story.

10- Because is you watch the movie you'll have fun, it'll be exciting that you watch something " I think it's better than you just read in quiet! " .. This is my opinion .. I know there are so many people disagree with me. Actually this is why I chose this topic .. to join your opinion, 

I hope you enjoy the topic. sorry for being late.

Homesick

I have been in the US for about two months. Sometimes I am so busy. I like that kind of busy feeling and I do not even want to have a rest, because I will miss my family when I stop. I clearly remember one poem which could best show my feeling now. It was written by one famous Chinese poet – Guangzhong Yu.

Homesick

When I was a child, my homesickness was a small stamp.
I’m here and my mother is there.
When grown up, I remained homesick, but it became a ticket.
I’m here and my bride is there.
Now I’m still homesick, but it is a narrow strait.
Separating me from my homeland.

I am far from home like Yu, although his homesick was because he could not go home.
We have the same feeling – homesick.

Sitting by the window, I heard a song from outside. I believe that song was played by a person who has the same feeling with me because of the song.
I got money in my pocket
I got a map in my frint seat
Got a sweet kiss from my mama
Her lipstick''s still on my cheek
Got a good luck from my daddy
And my sister''s favorite dress
Oh I miss them all already
And it ain''t even been ten miles yet
I know this ain''t goodbye forever
I know I can come back anytime
I want to my dreams are calling
I know it''s now or never
All I gotta do is remember where my heart is
When I get homesick
Homesick
I got a one bedroom apartment
A view of 16th avenue
Got my grandpa''s old guitar
And in my head a picture of you
I know this ain''t goodbye forever
I know I can come back anytime
I want to my dreams are calling
I know it''s now or never
All I gotta do is remember where my heart is
When I get homesick
If these dreams work out like I plan
They''re gonna take me far
But no matter how far
I know this ain''t goodbye forever
I know I can come back anytime
I want to my dreams are calling
I know it''s now or never
All I gotta do is remember where my heart is
When I get homesick
Homesick
Homesick
Homesick
Maybe homesick is part of life here for every international student. I should get used to it. I am an optimistic girl and I always think things in a simple way. Someone say that is not good, but I like me. The very moment I was in Chicago Airport, I feel lonely. People around me were different from me, our skin, hair, and eyes. I feel homesick.
But as some one said “We should find the interesting part of our lives by ourselves”, I should try to enjoy my life here. I have many good friends here in MSU. I love the quiet life here. The environment is so nice. Maybe I will be here for about two years. So I will try to explore my new life here and I believe studying abroad is smart choice for me.

Importance of Clean Water

Today I will try to take you some information about safe drinking water, I hope you enjoy it.

1-Water is your body's main chemical component; it is making up about 60 percent of your body weight. The human brain is made up of 95% water; blood is 82% and lungs 90%.
2-Every system in your body depends on water. For example, water flushes toxins out of vital organs, carries nutrients to your cells and provides a moist environment for ear, nose and throat tissues.
3-Lack of water can lead to dehydration, a condition that occurs when you don't have enough water in your body to carry out normal functions. Even mild dehydration can drain your energy and make you tired.
4- Men consume roughly 3 liters (about 13 cups) of total beverages a day and women consume 2.2 liters (about 9 cups) of total beverages a day.
5-Researches show that drinking of three glasses of water 15 minutes, before breakfast can reduce the risks of many cancers, especially colon cancer.
6-According to recent news and reports, most tap and well water in the U.S. are not safe for drinking due to heavy industrial and environmental pollution.
7-To prevent risks of harmful drinking water always use filtered water, according to the existing risks there are many types of filters can be used.
8-Filter systems can remove 90-99% of all contaminants from city and well water to deliver healthy drinking water for you and your family.
9- Drinking clean water can help you live longer. Healthy people who drink adequate levels of clean water generally keep their hydration level up and have a reduced risk of dying from a heart attack in comparison to people who do not drink adequate water.
10- Around the world, 884 million people do not have safe drinking water. Every day, nearly 6,000 people who share our planet die from water-related illnesses.

So far, I hope you healthy drinking water.....

&& Reduce Class Sizes &&

&& Reduce Class Sizes &&
1- There are several classes in the Institutes or the Universities that have a lot of students, like our class.
2- Some classes have at least 100 students in the university classes or 21 students like in our class, administrators want higher class sizes to reduce the number of teachers in order to reduce the costs.
3- There are several positives and negatives about these classes.
4- There are many students and teachers don't like to be in a class with more than 12 students.
5- Reducing class sizes is important for both teachers and students. The big classes make it more difficult for students to understand the lessons.
6- The teachers have to make sure the students understand the lessons.
7- The teachers cannot help each student on their own because the teachers have limited time every day. This problem needs to be solved.
8- There are some positives in a big class, such as the teachers can make a lot of groups to work together. We can share the ideas among us.
9- We can learn about other cultures, and we can make a lot of friends from different countries.
10- I like this class very much. I hope we enjoy the rest of the summer together.

Extreme Sports~~

1. Nowadays, more and more people are attracted to dangerous sports and other dangerous activities, such as Bungee Jumping, Skydiving, Jungle Adventures, Jet boat rides and so on.
2. Although there are a lot of hazard accompanied with these sports and activities, people are still fond of them.
3. One and the chief reason is that many people are thrill-seekers; they always like to try new objects which produce a sense of excitement.
4. Compare with this kind of people, the others just want to relieve press which comes from the daily life.
5. Therefore, any modern extreme sports should involved with precise control of scientific instruments in order to ensure safety.
6. In my opinion, the challenges, the struggles, the successes, and the giving-ups are all a part of extreme sports.
7. We can’t only pursue the success tenaciously; in a contrary, we should enjoy the process more than the result.
8. There are more and more extreme sports, and some of them requires not only personal ability, but also teamwork spirits.
9. Through these activities, we can challenge ourselves on one hand, on the other hand, we can enhance our personalities, such as the changes on personal psychologic, physiologic and attitude.
10. All in all, extreme sports are not suitable for everyone. ^_^

P.S: I wish you can enjoy this topic, and if you have different opinions please let me know! ^^

  3. I can live in my own world when ever I close my eyes , but I can not make it very well when my eyes are open. Well, that is Cartoon movies job. They just take me out of this world which some times is boring and full off enemies that we do not know who or where they live ?.
  4. When I said Cartoon movie it means , Peace is always the winner. The only rule is that there is no place for evils. No matter what kind of powers they have.
  5. Cartoons movies can help you to believe in yourself. They guide you how to be stronger and discover your hidden skills. I mean it is just psychology thing which said, you can do it! if you want to.
  6. Cartoon movies give you a global picture which shows you that this earth is full of peace and all people who help each other. Some times Shows you how to recognize and understand others feelings.
  7. They're full of colors and interesting pictures which make you more relaxed and give lucidity to the arts .It's kind of Psychology and amuse you with art
  8. Also it takes short time to watch them . Some times, one hour and some times half an hour,so you do not have to worry about the reality and other responsibilities .^ I think Nobi will like this advantage^ .
  9. Now you can know cartoons movies are very important not only for children also for us . ^ this is only for ladies .. we need to feel that we are still younger .. I think micky is laughing now ^. However, for those people who are shy to say that they watch Cartoons. I want tell them do not be shy , I've already revealed the truth for others .

Would you believe Power of Blue-Colored Lighting?

  1. Recently years in Japan, some community and traffic company had installed Blue-Colored Lighting for street lamp or train platform light. .
  2. Why they installed this light their hometown streetlight or platform lighting?
  3. Because, it is believed that Blue-Colored Lighting has power decreasing crime and suicide.
  4. It was said that the first city installed this lamp was Glasgow. It is located in North Scotland and one of biggest cities in the United Kingdom.
  5. In fact, Glasgow had Blue-Colored Lighting installed in their landscape for streetlight. After that number of crime in this area had been decreasing.
  6. In Japan, one of Railway Company installed this in their platform, there were two or three suicide at their station every year, but after installed this they had no suicide at all.
  7. One reason of this result, a blue color has effect to make people be relax and mellow out.
  8. But, some researcher said number of crime or suicide decreased had no other reason but this Blue-Colored Lighting was so rare, so people had away from installed this in area.
  9. I think it is little doubt but that this lamp has some effect of decreasing number of crime and suicide.
  10. And I like another colors such as green, orange, brown and etc. So, there are installed not only Blue-Colored Lighting but also another colored one. It will make person more happy and wonderful!
Thank you!
