    Eassy for my university

    I'm right, you're wrong. Do you feel identified identify with this phrase? Most of us would answer yes. But why? The answer is that we are all addicted to "being right", but being captive to our opinions is a trap. Wanting to be right is the chronic disease of humanity, one of the causes that have faced challenges faced by more people, nations, and organizations around the world. The result is that wanting to be always in possession of the truth consumes a great amount of energy and time that prevents us from enjoying others and the peace of mind of knowing that deep down we all have our own logic. But let's see what else this question implies.
    Our tendency is to see certain information or ideas as allies. We want them to win, we want to defend them. And those who contradict that opinion are the enemy and we want to defeat them. We take it personally. Scientists call it "motivated reasoning." Motivated reasoning is the result of the involvement of our emotions in our reasoning and hypothetically rational decisions. This theory holds that our subconscious motivations, desires and fears form and configure the information we receive to fit with what we already believe. In this way, we are less meticulous when examining evidences that agree with our beliefs, because we already agree with them and, instead, we look for every possible failure in the opinions that are contrary to our current opinion.
    Is it better to be right at all costs before being happy? Before answering, just think about the following. Listening to others is proof of empathy and respect, keys to growing and being at peace. Take your time and examine if you are really right when you are wrong.

    Examen Advanced, Task 27 Relate an experience about trying to register for university courses. Estudio para ser profesora de matemáticas y español. Ya he completado todas las materias del programa, pero antes de conseguir la licencia de enseñanza hay que hacer un internado de 16 semanas, completar un proyecto de investigación y tomar unos exámenes. Tengo un poco de ansiedad sobre el examen de español. No pienso que mi nivel es bastante alto para conseguir la nota requerida. Tengo que mostrar que mi nivel es "Advanced Low" en todos los 4 habilidades (escribir, leer, escuchar y hablar). "Advanced Low" es más o menos igual al nivel de C1 en el MCER. Hoy intenté de registrar para el examen. Solo hay tres fechas durante todo el año que este examen está disponible - una en febrero, una en abril y otra en julio. Lo quiero tomar tan pronto como posible, para que si no reciba una buena nota tendré la oportunidad de retomarlo. Así que decidí registrarme para el 21 de febrero. Desafortunadamente, cuando fui al sitio de web de la compañía que produce los exámenes no había ninguna fecha disponible para este examen en mi universidad. El sitio de web me dijo que tengo que ir a otro estado para tomar el examen! Segun ello, el centro de exámenes más cerca que da este examen está 150 millas de mi ciudad. Estaba muy desilusionada, y un poco enfadada por la idea de que estudiantes tendrían que manejar por tres horas para tomar un examen. Mandé un correo electrónico a mi consejero académico para preguntar si es verdad que no puedo tomarlo en la universidad. Me dijo que sí, puedo tomarlo aquí y la próxima fecha es el 21 de febrero. Hay que ser un problema en el sitio de web de registro. Espero que pueda resolver este problema pronto porque este examen es muy importante.

    Avanzado, Tarea 13 Advanced, Task 13: Talk about your hobbies or special interests in detail. Cuándo tengo tiempo libre me gusta dibujar y escuchar música. Normalmente dibujo mandalas, pero a veces dibujo otras cosas como flores o animales. Dibujar mandalas es muy relajante. Solo uso tinta negra, no me gusta colorear las mandalas. Siempre uso marcadores de Micron, que son fabricados en Japón. Me gustan porque la tinta es resistente al agua y hay muchos tamaños diferentes. Tengo uno que tiene un punto de 0,15mm. Muchos de mis amigos dicen que debo producir un libro para colorear de mandalas, pero prefiero que sigo dibujando solo para mi mismo. Si empezara de dibujar como manera de ganar dinero entonces ya no sería relajante, pero una obligación. No me gusta vender mis dibujos, pero a veces los regalo a amigos. Tengo la escoliosis. Así que no puedo quedarme sentado para dibujar por mucho tiempo porque la posición molesta la columna. Cuando me duele mucho la espalda y no puedo sentarme comodamente, me echo en la cama y escucho a audiolibros. Mis favoritos son novelas de fantasia. á, é, í, ó, ú, ü, ñ, ¿, ¡

    Diary-20181217

    Today is the a bad day! Recently I worked for on writing my Chinese article writting because my English article was rejected twice in the last years. In order to achieve meet the requirements of the/my school, I must have an article before my graduration reply. I planned to submitte the article online today, but the big boss said the writting was too bad and disorganized. without order. So it there would be a delay.
    The badest worst things is that several people around me were always negative. They always said that my experiment was too hard and I can't graduate on time; Some classmates in the lab were mean and I really hate them; My boss was too strict and doesn't care of about my life and experiment...Day in and day out, it was always these people and it was always these things. In general, I would be active and friendly to talk with them. However, I am not the GOD or Bodhisattva. Why are do you always complain about these fucking things and Does it help in this way? It is really hard to deal with these things today. Leave me alone and be quiet. quite.
    In the afternoon, I go went to the dormitory from my lab with my computer. I played the LOL games and watched some funny videos. Then I go went to the gym and exercised for one an hour. I believe that exercise would will drive the bad moon out of your heart. Finally, I have a wonderful dinner for myself to rescue this bad day. HAPPY！
    Do you know this delicious Chinese delicious food？

    Is it no wonder that people who can't speak English are looked down on?

    I read an article a few days ago and it said that Miss USA looked down on Miss Vietnam and Miss Cambodia because they can't speak English. Then, Miss USA received a lot of criticism and apologized to them. I wonder why she looked down on them. I hear some American people, especially young women, tend to look down on people who can't speak English and complain when they travel other countries and English is not understood in there. Of course, English is the most commonly/widely spoken language around the world and very useful because we can communicate with people in from other countries with it. However they have their own language and can make a life without English. Miss USA may think the USA is the world, but of course, it isn't. Can you give me your opinion on her behavior?

    cigarette.

    I have a long story with a about smoking. I have been smoking for 12 years. I have tried to stop smoking many times. I tried many different systems: method of straight of spirit, betting and etc. 8 years ago my wife gave me a gift: Allen Carr`s book. I had read this book and stop smoking easily. But I was stupid, so I was not smoking only quit for 1 month. And It started again.
    Two months ago I was a in the hospital. I could not go for 3 days. I had read that book again...and I was happy again. But again only for 1 month.
    But I really don`t want to smoke. So today I am going to smoke my last cigarette.
