思考と行動

今日から、日本語でもブログを書いてみる。ブログを書くという行為は、いいアウトプットになると思う。思考を整理し、言葉を選び書く。なぜなら、だれかが読むかもしれないからだ。

まぁ、でもとりあえずは、書きたいように書こう。そうじゃなきゃ続かないだろうしね。

いま、悩んでるというか・・いつもだけど、まだまだ行動と思考が一致しない。これをやろうと考えていても、行動はずれていく。要するに、やる気の問題。やっと新しい仕事が見つかり、ほっとしているというかしすぎて、トーフルへのやる気がでない。

まだPurdueかKU Leuvenか決めてはいないけど、どのみちトーフル最低でも80以上はほしい。そのためには、もっと集中して、空いている時間をつかわなければ。

いまは、現在頭の中にある、これから卒業するまでの2年間の中で、米国公認会計士の資格をとりたい。会計士になりたいわけではないが、ビジネス資格として、取得すればかなり役立つだろう。海外・外資といった枠の中で仕事をしたいと思っていて、この資格があれば、いまのグローバルの波に乗れそうな気がする。もっと、細かく言うと、会社は数字でできていると思う。ある会社の現状を知るときに、数字が基礎になる。なおかつ、自分の働きたいフィールドを考えるとこの資格が一番いいと思う。
もちろん、道はかなり険しいが・・・。

最後に、このブログはとりあえずは、就職するまで続けてみようかな。もちろん、毎日書くことにこしたことはないが、それは厳しいだろうし、そんなにネタもないだろうから、思い立ったらいろいろ書いていこう。

一応、英語の文章も続けていく。いずれは、ここにフランス語も追加したい。

Importance of greeting

Ways of greeting vary from country to country. when you are in multicultural country like Toronto, what do you think you should learn different languages or not ?

 In my opinion, definitely we should learn different languages. Because if you could speak a lot of languages, even just ways of greeting, You could make friends with people all over the world. It was not until I went to a multicultural city like Toronto I realized that how important greeting was. Only could we speak ways of greeting, we could start a conversation with a person sitting next to you. And then we could learn different cultures, such as personality, food and whatever it is. For instance, if you go to a bar which is gathering people all over the world, you could speak another languages and learn different cultures from those who came from other countries.

 Second, learning ways of greeting can lead to make a relationship. Have you ever experienced a person who came from other county said to you where you are from and then I know how to say hello in your language ?. saying hello in your language from a person who speaks other language is really happy and grateful. Greeting is first thing of learning other language. Even if you can only speak greeting phrase, you could built a relationship with people from different country.

Finally, what I want to say is greeting makes people happy and friendly. Everyone has experienced that a person from other county has said to you hello in your language and that made you happy and funny, which leads to be more friendly and open your mind. Greeting always influences on your feelings and mind. Firstly we are starting a conversation from greeting and then taking about each life, hobby and whatever it is. The most important thing to start a conversation with a person who you don't know is definitely greeting. Because greeting has an effect that changes your mind.

independent task

  some students apply for admission only for to their first-choice school, while others apply to several schools. Which plan do you agree with, and why ? Be sure to include details and examples t support your opinion.




 Experience have taught me that applying for admission only for their first-choice school would be dangerous. When I was trying to enter a university that I really wanted to, I focused only on the university. Putting other words, I really wanted to enter it, which led to blindness.
Thats especially why students who are applying to schools should apply to several schools. All I want to say is apply for admission only for first one would be blindness, which would be dangerous and shallow. There are some reason why that wouldn't be good. First as we know, It would be good for us to have some options. If you have some options, you  could change the strategy to make us successful. And even if you failed to enter the school that you wanted to , you could go to another schools. Second as I mentioned, If you focus too much on an only school, if you failed to enter the school, You would be disappointed with other school and some people who failed to enter the school that they wanted sometimes tend to take their school off. I would like you to imagine a situation that you go to a school that you are not interested in. Possibly you would be disappointed with your school. The school might not  offer classes that you wanted and there might not a lot of people who are not studying harder. That kind of situation would make you disappointed or hollow. And then you may tend to be absent from your school.

 Other big reason that you should not apply for admission only for your first-choice school is that if you failed to enter the school that you wanted, You might have no school to go. If you have some school to go, if you failed to do, you could go to school. But more importantly, if you apply to several schools, you can choice schools. You would think which school is the best one and what I really go to schools for. That way, you can have some options and choice  a school that is really good for you. Of course you should have a school that you truly want to go, but you should not concentrate your mind too much on first your-choice. That has a lot of problems which would make you bad.

an essay regarding Dream

Typically, a good essay for the integrated topic will require that you write 150-225 words.

and i wrote 206 words. but to review my essay, the passage was too much compared with the lecture. moreover, my essay uses too much cites. but i couldn't help it...this is the first time to try to write. well there is a first time for everyone. of course I've got to improve my essay.


  In the passage, Freud said that dream reflects our subconscious. We have some wishes and desires. And these wishes and desires are too disturbing or too socially inappropriate to surface from the unconscious to the conscious mind. For example, a student who is concerned about taking an important exam may dream about the exam or some type of symbol for the exam will appear in a dream. And then the student may actually want to cheat the exam to get succeed on the exam. But that is inappropriate and feels a pang of conscience. If the student did that and were found, it might be suspended. And therefore actually the student couldn’t do that. But the student still have that feeling that they want to cheat the exam, which leads to be subconscious. It cause a dream about the exam. In other words, Freud was trying to say that a dream express their deep mind, that is subconscious.
  But in the lecture, another scientist said that dream just reflect a chemical response. The scientist tried to test cats. Partly because cats and humans brain are alike in structure. That’s why the scientist did. As a result, the scientist detected that a dream just responses chemical incident.

Movies or Books ?

 if you have enough money to buy a book or watch a movie, which would you rather spend the money on, a book or a movie ? Provide specific details to justify your decision.
Usually, an effective essay should have a minimum of 300 words.

  I usually watch a movie at my pastime. Because movies give us a world visually that we couldn't go though in our normal life. Of course some people would say that books also provide a knowledge and new thought. Although I agree with this opinion, movies bring about  even more details of a story and knowledge than books. In other words, I would like to say that the most important thing is a visual effect. the visual effect makes a story and situation clear or plain.

  I would like to take a movie that I want to recommend to everyone for example. this movie called The Shawshank Redemption gave us brisk and refreshing feelings. the outline of this story is that a innocent banker is looked up in jail and he is trying to escape from jail. While he is being looked up, he is making friends with other prisoner. But until he succeed in escaping from jail, all his friends doesn't know his plan eventually. After escaping from jail, he is going to set up hotel near the sea. when he succeed in escaping, he outspreads his arm and raises his face to the sky. what is he thinking about at the moment ? presumably I think he is thinking about his harsh life of jail and appreciation to the God. I can image how he feel from his face and motion. Because movies are visual things. But as far as books concerned, thats not gonna happen. Of course we can image his feelings from the line. But we can't see his face and motion. That would be hard for us to presume how really good he feels at the moment.

  moreover, the reason why I usually watch a movie is movie can share the time with friends and even people who you don't know. We can share the moment and feel how fun a movie is in the movie cheater and your home. But considering books, We can't do that. As you see, books are made for a person and don't have intention to share the time. Whats more, you can use movies to get a new girl or boy friend.

smart phones are anti social

 Smart phones are widely used all over the world at the present. But some experts say that smart phones are anti social. What do you think of it ? State your opinion.

  In my opinion, I think this thought is a little extreme. But some people is influenced by smart phone. Of course it goes without saying that smart phones have brought about a great deal of convenience and connect people with information. However it also causes a lot of problems. For example, those who are addicted to smart phone always keep it close and sometimes are not aware of other person passed by them. that would cause too much danger, such as clashing with people, internet fraud. In this day and age, smart phone has become something of a necessity, and almost people can't do without one. If we are taking great benefits into consideration, that would be important. But don't forget that sometimes smart phones include a potential peril.

  When it comes to great benefits, smart phone has gave us new world. Long time ago, we used a fixed line phone. it could use at only one place and couldn't carry it anywhere . On the other hand, smart phone can use wherever and connect us with internet world. Thanks to these breakthrough, we all are connecting with new world, which can open endlessly. When we look in this way, it stands reason that we are using smart phones and become necessity.

  However, don't forget that that has merits and demerits and keep in mind that that are bound to evolve further and bring about problems as well. When we face the age of evolution, we should appeal to reason instead of resorting to devices and know the knowledge of what is right and wrong.
