Statistically, studies have shown the higher degree of education one achieves, the higher the average salary they can attain. Currently, the job sector is over-saturated with undergraduate degrees. A bachelors in engineering doesn't take you very far anymore. However, the educational and employment landscape is changing rapidly. Employers are creating better means to discover talented people, talented people that may not necessarily have a degree, or piece of paper certifying that they are at some base level of competency. Additionally, major (and highly respected institutions) are contributing to what is being called MOOC, major online open coursware. Stanford has engineering courses online, MIT has their Opencourseware..harvard...carnagie melon, Georgia Tech etc etc. (https://www.edx.org/school/mitx/allcourses) There's a really interesting talk about this on a public radio program called intelligence squared: http://www.intelligencesquaredus.org/debates/past-debates/item/550-too-many-kids-go-to-college-our-first-%20debate-in-chicago One of the speakers arguing against higher education is a man named Peter Thiel, one of the most respected and successful tech entrepreneurs today. He makes some compelling arguments!

Scared by a dream

I was very tired today, so I went to bed early, but I was awakend by a nightmare (terrible dream). It scared me so much, I couldn't go back to sleep. I got up to do something (to distract myself). So here I am, writing this.

And I have a question ,I hope someone can help me .
if you can miss someone ,although you live alone ,but you can say you are lonely .
I want to know how to express this sentence more clearly/better/effectively. 

I'm not sure how to translate the sentence in red. Maybe being lonely doesn't translate the same in English. Because you can be in a relationship with someone, and live with them, but still feel lonely if they don't pay you enough attention, or satisfy some intimate urge.

 

Hatidza already did an excellent job correcting this, but I just wanted to chime in on the last sentence.

 

 

I hope l can go abroad one day, and that the restrictions to travel won't be as rigid.

 

 

I heard the restrictions have already relaxed a little bit over the past two years. One can sign up online to make an appointment for an interview?

Good luck!
