Michael is extremely intelligent and curious about the language and the culture. It's so inspiring to know someone dedicated and curious about the Filipino culture like him. Looking forward to our future lessons!

Michael的中文发音很标准。由于他自己也是老师，所以我们的课进展得很自如。我很期待我们下次的课。

    我也喜爱这首歌曲 （平凡之路）。 那歌声柔和缠绵。另外的中文歌曲是周杰伦的枫。

    生病的朋友 今天我有很多事情要做。不过我听说我的老乡因感冒发烧不能去工作，住院了。该怎么办？去安慰生病的朋友吗？ 嗯。虽然不能直接交谈，但是也可以让她得到一点儿安慰。 生活中常常会有不好的事情发生。当这种事情发生在我朋友身上时， 也许她非常希望得到我的安慰。

    我还在练习中文 关于汉语，我知道的不多。还差得远。经过自己的努力，我得到了现在的水平。我觉得多亏了老师们。我是通过他们的帮助提升【提高，不是提升】我的汉语水平。 一个人学习汉语挺难的。跟中文老师学汉语呢？不算难。以前我以为独立地学习是最好的方法。后来我发现了我需要别人的帮助。找不到语伴，偏偏独立地学习汉语。 这个事情我正在处理着。

    Try to correct the portions in yellow on your own. It'll be good practice!


    Through the internet, social media, newspaper..., the opinions of celebrities are widely spread and can affect almost every person. However, based on the observations in of everyday life, I do agree with the statement that they seem more important to young people than they are to older people. The two following reasons are discussed to further elaborate upon my thoughts. 


    The first reason why I consider this way is that, while older people have more life experience on their own, young people are still learning how the world works. Thus, their thoughts are more easily shaped than older people. Young people tend to imitate those whom they look up to, such as famous singers, athletes, statesman, etc. Take my best friend, for example, one of her favorite basketball players encourages teenagers to follow their hearts and pursue their dreams. She then decided to study major in life science as major instead of becoming a doctor, which is what her parents wanted her to do. It is the athlete that influences one of her most important decision in life.

    In addition to the reason aforementioned reasons above, young people also gain information from social media more commonly than the elderly. Therefore, the opinions of celebrities could be spread quickly among young people, and even be commented or discussed. As a result, there is an amplification effect on those opinions, which deeply influences how young people think. For instance, if a celebrity posts his/ or her opinion on Facebook or Instagram, it could be shared for over hundreds of thousands of times! In this way, hardly can young people not be affected by these messages with such frequent appearance on social media.

    To sum up In sum, as far as I'm concerned, younger people consider the opinions of well-known celebrities more importantly since their more flexible mind, as well as their more frequent access to social media.

    Experimental Notebook Entry 1 (Mandarin) I suspect that much of what I've written is incorrect. Nonetheless, for this notebook entry, I simply tried to put into practice what I already know (e.g., words, phrases). Title: 放空自己吧。你的问题并不多。 虽然我学习了好多的词汇，但是学习的压力不大。可能我应该多加的练习呢？ 因为我主要的工作是编辑者，是自己创业的公司，所以我能够很放松地生活。 对于我来说，让自己很烦恼用处不大。比如说，在路上的时候，偶尔我会碰到一些人，一看就觉得他们的脑子快要爆炸了，他们怎么也忍不住。 我对自己说，“为什么莫些人会让他们自己变得这样子？如果我可以的话，我会去照应他们。” 我个人认为放空自己其实挺容易的。你看，每个人的问题并不多，存在的问题本来在脑子里。担心得要死干嘛？瞎费劲儿。可能会生病。 有的人特别想得到很好的一份工作，得到认可，主要是为了让自己的家人感到骄傲。不过当他们在很努力地拿着这种成就，他们愿意把自己的生命当成舍己为人。 我们需要记住：我们只有这个生命，我们出生只有一次。所以要好好地想想看是否自己现在的生活符合实际。比如说，你正在做你想要做的事情吗？你到底喜不喜欢每天晚上失眠几个小时？ 反正没有人能够把你的思维方式改善，也不会改善你的生活。要靠自己的权利。如果你不开心，就赶快去改变吧。生活需要平衡。均衡饮食。 我们这个任性的脾气什么时候改得了？我们原来是自己最大的幸福障碍。

    Spanish - Lesson 1 Short notes on what my Spanish teacher and I discussed. Update: Based on 【Evelyn Álvarez】's corrections, I should be more aware of where I need to place accents. I also need to capitalize the first word of every sentence. Another issue is inverted question marks. Interrogative sentences require one inverted question mark at the beginning and one question mark at the end. Observations: - Why does 【Soy】 need to be capitalized and 【el】 not (i.e., "el Soy editor")? - "Response" is 【Respuesta】in Spanish. - Is 【alrededor】 another way to say más o menos? - 【Por qué quieres aprendes】? - 【Para poder presentarme】? WORDS & PHRASES listo - ¿estás listo? - Ready? fantasma - ghost ¿De dónde eres? - los Estados Unidos de América. ¿cuántos años tienes? - How old are you? Veintinueve - 29. ¿cuál es tu trabajo? - What is your job? RESPONSE: el editor. ¿que editas? - What do you edit? RESPONSE - corrector de estilo ¿que enseñas? - What do you teach? RESPONSE: eres maestro de TESOL ¿o en alguna escuela? - Do you teach in a school? ¿que universidad? - What/which university? ¿cuando vas a la universidad? - When do you go to the university? ¿cuanto tiempo tardas? - How long does it take you? más o menos - More or less; around. ¿cuantas? - How many? How much? ¿y regresas el mismo dia? - Do you return on the same day? ¿es muy cansado? - To be very tired?
