The topic that I disagree is the topic of Yuya, I don't disagree completely, just in some things, the reasons are because…

he say that in the past people life style were greatly changed, but I think it is no better, they have they own problems, maybe different as us but also are problems.

And I find a sentences in his topic that is very controversial to me because he say; Therefore, social networking make economy develop. And that is true in part because social networking helps economy for make better relationships whit other countries and thinks like that, but in contrast social networking take away a lot of time to people.

People in this times cant live without social networking and that causes a lot of inattention.

The article in popcon.org says...Proponents of social networking sites say that the online communities promote increased interaction with friends and family; offer teachers, librarians, and students valuable access to educational support and materials; facilitate social and political change; and disseminate useful information rapidly.

But I insist in the issue of how many time we spend in social networking and I think we should use it to do some better thinks and I read that Social networking sites facilitate cyberbullying to.

From Buenos Aires, journalist Carlos Valverde days ago revealed the existence of a memorandum of the Ministry of Defense of Brazil on secret military flights between Bolivia and Venezuela, which have used the Brazilian airspace.
According to Valverde, this would corroborate the allegations made previously by the Bolivian Colonel Germán Cardona.
Here is now in full the memorandum, prepared by the Department of Strategic Intelligence (DIE) in Brazil after a visit to Caracas by the Minister of Defense of that country, Nelson Azevedo Jobim, held from 13 to 14 April 2008 (pictured , is the meeting with President Hugo Chavez) official.
Portuguese document states that the main purpose of the visit was the creation of the South American Defense Council (CSD) as an intermediate step to the creation of a military force modeled on NATO as an instrument to meet the challenges of the American Empire .
Confidential One of the main points addressed in bilateral talks was the use of airspace, mentioning several incidents in 2007 in which Venezuela would have dabbled illegally in Brazil.
There is also talk about the transportation of Venezuelan troops to Bolivia aboard C-130 aircraft in 2008, the presence of Cubans in Bolivia with operational interest and relations between the FARC and Venezuela.
Anecdotally, the report says military intelligence Brazilian Hugo Chavez seems to dominate the mass psychology, which was master Adolf Hitler.

Proponents of this option argue that it is "imperative to stop the war" 52 years with the FARC and therefore called to approve at the polls peace agreement. "It is to end the conflict that has left eight million victims through reforms that are necessary and have a democratic background," said Senator Ivan Cepeda.
This senator, like other politicians, believes that peace is a "right" that is above all others and what is done to get it benefit the majority.
Antanas Mockus, the strongest to approve the agreement in the plebiscite argument is that "there are many victims who have had many victims and we can avoid."
According to the report 'Enough', published in 2013 by the National Center of Historical Memory, the conflict has left at least 220,000 dead, 5.7 million displaced, 25,007 missing and 27,023 kidnapped, crimes largely committed by the FARC. If he wins the 'yes' will disappear as the FARC armed group and lives will be saved, President Santos said.
Supporters argue 'yes' if they win on Sunday the FARC rifles is muted.
For supporters of 'yes' to stop the confrontation new development opportunities for the country will also open because of the backwardness of the countryside where the FARC emerged due to the fact that security conditions did not allow investment and the construction of infrastructure in some regions.

I read Rewa's topic. I think cell phone is safe.Ionizing radiation, including x-rays and ultraviolet light, produces molecules called ions that have either too many or too few electrons. Ions are known to damage DNA and cause cancer. Cell phone radiation, like radio, TV, and visible light radiation, is non-ionizing and lacks sufficient energy to add or remove electrons from molecules, and therefore it cannot ionize and cause cancer. According to the authors of a 2005 peer-reviewed study of 3.7 million Swedish residents, a "biologic mechanism that could explain any possible carcinogenic effect from radiofrequency radiation has not been identified."The FCC sets the maximum amount of thermal radiation (heat) that cell phones are permitted to emit. This limit is measured as the amount of radiation absorbed by a user and is known as the specific absorption rate (SAR). In 1996 the SAR for cell phone radiation was set at a maximum of 1.6 watts of energy absorbed per kilogram of body weight. Manufactures of cell phones must test their products to ensure that they meet this standard. Random tests of phones on the market by FCC scientists further ensure that radiation levels meet FCC guidelines.According to a peer-reviewed Dec. 2006 study of 420,095 cell phone users in Denmark, the results showed a "reduced brain tumor risk" among long-term subscribers. Two other peer-reviewed studies also found that cell phone users had a slightly decreased risk of developing brain tumors. A July 20, 2005 Danish study found a "decreased risk for high-grade glioma," a malignant brain tumor, and a 2005 Swedish study also found a "decreased odds ratio" for developing glioma as well as meningioma, another type of brain tumor.

I just read Arwa's post' and i would like to argue about it.

i agree with Arwa that We all know that radiation is bad for us. Yet we fail to recognize the fact that mobile phones are using radiation in order to make contact with another station. Research has shown that higher frequencies of radiation are given out by a phone the further away it is from a base station; those who live further away from these base station and use mobile phones are more likely to develop cancer. This research shows that cell phones are in fact not safe; they cause a disease which we are still very much in ignorance over how to cure.

Are Cell Phones Safe?This is an interesting  topic. Right now, the most people use their cell phone every day. Thy might just take with family   or use in their business. Is that safe?The radiation emitted by cell phones, known as radiofrequency (RF) radiation, is regulated by the Federal Communications Commission (FCC). Hundreds of millions of Americans use cell phones and many of them wonder if there are any health risks.

People who say cell phones are safe reference statements by the FCC and Food and Drug Administration (FDA) and point to peer-reviewed studies which conclude that cell phone use is not associated with an increased risk of brain tumors or the onset of other health problems. They contend there has been no increase in brain tumor rates despite hundreds of millions of people now using cell phones.

People who say cell phones are not safe cite peer-reviewed studies showing an association between cell phone use and tumor growth, DNA damage, and decreased fertility. They say cancers take 20-30 years to develop and cell phone studies have monitored periods of 10 years or less. They highlight the International Agency for Research on Cancer’s classification of cell phone radiation as a possible carcinogen.

Today I want to write the opposite of the Andy’s argument that is our drinking age shouldn’t be lowered from 21 to a young age. The true fact that the America is one of the country don’t allowed to drink alcohol before the 21 years old. But we cannot say it is unfair with their children. The people live in America that need everyone to enforce the policy. So,  I think this country have their the principle . Personally, I have the several reasons to refute the Andy’s opinion. Initially, MLDA( Minimum Legal Drinking Age) 21 reduce traffic accident and fatalities. Because young age children always passion after drinking alcohol. The limitation of the age is good way to prevent. In addition, the young children are still the consumption group. Therefore MLDA 21 reduce the alcohol consumption. Most importantly, the America public overwhelmingly support MLDA. Otherwise it is illegal behaviors. There are three stronger reasons refute him, which is reduce the traffic accident, alcohol consumption and mandatory policy. I believe that the everything have their own justification.

I read the Diego' topic that should the students under 21 years old is enough to drink.

Although he agree this idea, I believe that students under 21 should not drink alcohol because it is danger by drinking, they don't have medically responsibility and reducing alcohol consumption.

First of all, it might happen some dangerous accidents when you drunk. Some opponent of my idea say that they are member of adults so they can handle their feeling and they know what is right and wrong. It is true that 18 years old person have right to vote, smoke cigarettes, get married and purchase guns . However, they tend to be lack of consciousness for their action when the drink. They usually lose sense and became crazy especially people who don't used to be drinking. Therefore, it is set 21 years old to drink.

Another argument is that they can not digest it and interfere development. Alcohol can interfere development of children brain such as function for emotional regulation, chronic problem , and organization. It might cause dangerous action, reduce decision making, invite use of drug, depression. Furthermore, their intoxication is lower than people who live in another countries.

In conclusion, people under 21 years old should not allow to drink. It could lose one's decision if you drunk. Without law, young people could not develop enough. Constitution reasonably make decision age of drinking alcohol.

animal testing.

Conversely the use of animals is seen by many in the medical field as necessary. While it is not ideal to cause harm to animals it is a safer way to test new products compared to testing them on humans. Typical research and development will begin trials on rats. If those tests prove successful then another set of tests are conducted on monkeys. Once the tests are successful with monkeys then human testing begins. These tiered rounds of testing are used to reduce the amount of mistakes and negative side effects in all breakthroughs. It is argued that animal testing saves many lives and there is no alternative to testing on a living organism. In addition there are strict regulations for animal testing which prevent any mistreatment of the animals in question.

Overall the use of animals for research testing is an old concept and one that has historically been debated. Proponents claim that with regulations in place the animals are not intentionally harmed and that they are taken care of and treated as well as possible. They claim that there is no alternative and that the use of animal testing has saved many lives. And yet there are animal friendly organizations who claim that it is an unnecessary step to use animals for testing and it should be stopped due to its inhumane and cruel nature.

I would like to introduce my self. I’m Riyadh and 21 years old. I focused my effort on studying because I so much regret not studying hard as a student. I have brother who is only 4 year older. He graduated from a university a year ago and is preparing to become a teacher these days.

However, I’m cheerful. I always try to stay positive and generous. When I’m with others, neither outgoing nor shy. I like to take an adequate stand situationally. Also I'm strict to be punctual and polite.

Even though my parents bring me up freely, the only thing they always admonished is to keep sincere attitude anytime and any anywhere. Thanks to them.

I'm a couch potato. Although I can get up go to school on the week days, when coming to the weekend.

I can't get up early and want stay at home. So I don’t frequently make an appointment unless I miss somebody. I prefer learning anything from books and the mass media at home or looking around the street scenery even if I want to go out on weekend. I wouldn't like spend time on worthless tasks or having corny conversations with others. Overall, my first goal in my life is to enjoy progressing life itself without being bound by rules or any destination and to be happy all the time.

Are cell phone safe?

I've read Arwa's essay about cell phone is not safe,in my opinion,i don't agree with her view.With the evolution of technology,the invention of cell phone almost change our whole life . Nowadays,we depend on cell phone to do anything(shopping ,chatting,working etc.).Although many scientists insist that cell phone is not safe for people ,there are mounting strong evidences that cell phone is safer than people imagine. In order to support my opinion,I will prove my opinion by convenient life and the responsibility of the company.
Cell phone gives people more helps to check and monitor their bank account. For example,If I haven’t cell phone,I have to find a bank or an ATM to check my expense calendar and balance.What’s more,banks have operating time,i must deal with my business in a certain time.

On contrast,If i have an application of the bank on the cell phone,i can check my account wherever and whenever.Furthermore,you can receive messages that remind you your consumption.If someone else use your card,you can contact the bank immediately.

Second,with the evolution of scientific technology,safety performance of cell phone are increased dramatically.20 years ago,my father have a phone that didn’t have any function to protect communication privacy such as power-on password.Nowadays,my father have an Iphone 6s which have three kinds of ways to lock your phone.If you lost your phone,nobody can get your information without the password.Although some people argue that the company of cell phone will sell their customer’s information in illegal ways.the company should have responsibility to solve the problem instead of blaming on cell phone,and not the company of cell phone but also other ways can release your information. How safe the cell phone is!

Hello my classmate,

I just read Mayuka's post, and i would like to argue about it.

First of all, Japan's government decided Uniforms cloths where is in school, so i think, uniforms for some of categories is leading such as schools.  Consequently, teachers are conscious who is student or not; however, students do not like uniforms and will complain. The leader of school is know that because of students. I admit, i used to wearuniform in elementary school, but i was complaining because i inclined to wear whatever i want to. I will be honest, i think, i have been taunted from other people.

So, in my opinion, uniforms are not necessary for some of categories.

Thank you guys, and i hope i do not bother you  Mayuka !

Hello Everyone! I read Mayuka's argument from the week 2 discussion about "Should students have to wear school uniforms" Even though she has a really good point, I disagree with her opinion. First, I would like to summarize Mayuka  argument for anyone who did not read it. Mayuka says that some people think that uniforms can safe parents money, can avoid peril situations for students, and it makes everyone noticed the students. However, she thinks that fashion and the students ability to choose their attires are more important which is dose not make sense to me at all. Second, I will explain my opinion and why I disagree with Mayuka's opinion. One of my important reasons is, that
I grew up thinking that the strata of society are not equal. Some of them are rich some, some of them are middle-income, and some of them are poor, but you will never know which student is rich and which student is poor in school when every student wear the same clothing. That is one reason could grow pretty values in students' souls like modesty. Because of school uniforms, rich students will not take pride in their clothes and poor students will not feel ashamed because of their clothes. Also, there is a lot of good acumen that make me agree that students should wear school uniforms. For example, it makes students getting ready for school easily and quickly. Furthermore, school uniforms makes students focus more on learning than on fashion. Besides that, students can always put their own touch on their uniforms like adding a brooch or switch some small details that does not affect the entire design of the uniform, at least some school do not mind, so they would not lose their identity.

I read a Yuya's topic. That is "Whether Social Networking is good Our Society"
My opinion is disagree with that. Recently, in the world becoming more and more affluent. But, I reckon that has problem. Some school in Japan, some school introduce social networking into education. I rebel this system. If the government suggest introduce social networking into education, may be Japan will collapse. I think Japanese education need highly and correctly  evaluate the student. Therefore, the government of Japan, they don't have enough budget. So, when all school introduce social networking into education, that need a lots of money and we don't know that will be successful. That's like a gambling. I am here on normal education behalf. Actually, we need revolution to education. But, now people think about what we need for handy, always think about that. If we continue use many convenient stuff, we will weak more and more. I think social networking has almost bad effects on our life. We don't need everything themselves. people can create more by own idea. We can do it without convenient stuff. What's more, smart phone has a some health problem for human body. So, we have to leave from social networking service and electronic equipment.I think we can do when we stay in home and just relax, we can use any social networking service but when we go school or office, we don't need enough service from network. We need more educational stuff and we continue thinking about what we need for education. Don't forget the social networking service has a bad effects on our life.

I read topic about whether social networking is good our society.

Today more and more society become faster than before. We don't have to write letters and go to post office. This is mainly due to developing social networking. In young generation thier life style has greatly changed. While some people say that SNS makes some problem such as spreading false information, lacking privacy and addiction and vice action I think that more and more people should make use of it and get profit of using it because it is good for country economy, it spreads information faster than any other media and allow people to improve their quality of life and make friends whom I can't see without it.

First of all, SNS makes more opportunity for jobs. Before social networking era our jobs were limited like labor force. But now our choices are multiple. Our job is widen like internet web creater.

Therefore, social networking make economy develop.

Another profit is that we can access it easily and get information we need instantly. Traditional media such as newspaper has replaced. In addition, by widespread video site like youtube and netflix

we seldom watch TV shows on TV.

The most important ones are that we can make friends across the world interact with them. We visit website which we are interested in and it helps to become new relationship. In globalization world our society transform more complex. This symbolize the changing trend and in consequence it diversify chance of making new friends.

In conclusion social networking affect us positive influence. There is still argument between young generation and elder one, but without it our society would not make economical profits and communicate people and have ways to get information. Therefore we have to promote to use it.

Today I read the the Luke's essay. I feel that it is  partly true. I disagree his opinion, because his idea is not enough. In some situation, if you want to a good money, you will be a worker without a high education. In America, there are a lot of families that don't have too much money to send all  their children to go to universities or colleges. So they can make the money firstly and then they can use the money that they make to go to colleges and get higher education. It is cheap that most people can accept.Maybe It is our region. In addition, if all people can ago to colleges, the graduated students are common. The graduated students will be waiters and waitresses. All people need higher education.They are so firm. Every students need master or PHD to find a job. The PHD just can work less than graduated students. And it would lead PHD make less money because there are too many PHD in the world. Lots of students give it up and don't work anymore. There will be a threaten of the society.  There are lots of people who object to go to college. They urge that they don't want to go to school.
But someone will say that they will regret that.

Hi guys this is Faleh,

Should Tablets Replace Textbooks in K-12 Schools?

1. Publishing for the K-12 school market is an $8 billion industry, with three companies - McGraw-Hill, Pearson, and Houghton Mifflin Harcourt - capturing about 85% of this market. Tablets are a $72 billion industry with 42% of US adults owning a tablet. As tablets have become more prevalent, a new debate has formed over whether K-12 school districts should switch from print textbooks to digital textbooks on tablets.

I would like to tell you about interesting things. I just read about education that is Tablets vs. Textbooks!!

It does kind of interesting does not?

There are three companies will covered $72 billion!!

In my opinion, that's will help them to study and enjoy at the same time and also Tablets can hold too many Textbooks. Is that useful?

I Think, this is totally useful. Consequently, students do not have to hold anything additional that is ultimate their strength.

In Nov 2010 the US department of education made plan that's how schools can improve as education technology. Also, they studied than they realized

the average weight of a student's backpack is 15.4 pounds (an average of 3-4 books), and the average weight of a tablet is between 0.75 to two pounds.

So, if they use Textbook, that means tough for student who are under 21 years old.

If you guys would like to look it up, go to “http://www.procon.org” ..

Thank you guys for attention to my post!!

Hi Everyone!
I read about the topic; Are cell phones safe? and i can not say that cell phones are totally safe because they caused many mishaps sines they had had been contrived. some scientists say that cell phones has a negative effect on people's brains because of the ultrasound waves. for instance, I guarantee from my experience with cell phones that talking for a long time on cell phone make it too hot and it can injure your ears afterward. furthermore, a lot of cell phone companies have making deals with governments to sell them their purchaser information. besides that, I agree with   because i think that cell phones are the main reasons for car accidents these days. in addition, that spending more time using cell phones make us less stamina and handle our daily activities, not forgetting that using cell phones avoid us from the good interaction with people around us. Finally, still the topic Are cell phones safe? make a cyclone of arguments about it. After all, we need to use cell phones less than we do now even though it looks tough and keep looking for other options because this is the only way that we can protect ourselves from the danger of cell phones.

should we drinking age be lowered from 21 to a 18?
As we know, in US people who are over 21 years old  only drink in public, but  teenagers can drink alcohol in private place. "Such as  underage drinking is allowed in 29 states if done on private premises with parental consent, 25 states if for religious purposes, and 11 states if for educational purposes."( From http://drinkingage.procon.org/view.resource.php?resourceID=006448)
why? So many people do not understand. Why adult who are 18 can go to the military, vote and decide who is our president. It is so weird. As we know, most countries in the world allow people who are 18 to drink alcohol. There are only 7 countries which allow people are over 21 drink in the world. America is one of them. It is totally unfair. people should get the right that they should have. America is the freest country in the world, but its citizens cannot drink until they are 21.  It is ridiculous.
Someone maybe say it is bed to teenagers' health. It is partly true, but teenagers can drink in private place in most states. I believe adult who are 18 have capacity to manipulate
their behaviors. They are adult. They are not too young to drink.  Some states allow people who are 16 can drive the trucks. They think teenagers who are just 16 can dominate the trucks, but the can not think an adult who is 20 can drink in public. Now, there are more and more people considering if we should let the drinking age lower.
In conclusion, we should let the drinking age lower in American. We should provide it to the teenagers. I believe that is the signal that America is the freest country. We must break through and release our power of drinking.

Is Human Activity Primarily Responsible for Global Climate Change?                Viki

# data[].attributes.body
The mounting strong evidence shows that the global climate changes obviously.Scientists tried their best to find the causes that lead to climate change.I definitely agree with that HUMAN ACTIVITIES are primarily responsible for global climate change because human-produced gases,increasing CO2 and less trees.

First,with the evolution of industry,waste gases are aggressively released into the atmosphere.By the reason that the

requirements of human become more and more endless,through the burning of fossil fuels to release a large number of greenhouse gases,the human-produced gases ulteriorly impact the global climate.In recent years, the main greenhouse gas emissions continue to increase, due to the enhanced greenhouse effect,the global climate becomes warmer and warmer.

Second,the rise in atmospheric CO2 over was clearly caused by human activities.The research shows that levels of CO2 have risen from about 317 ppm in 1958 to 400 ppm in 2013.The estimation of the level will reach 450 ppm by the year of 2040.

What’s more,cutting trees is one of the important reason that lead to global climate change. As we all know,if we need to fresh air to breath,we can go to the forest.However,the region of forest comes smaller and smaller.Trees are cut down and are made into daily needs,and the area which was the forest are replaced by factories.

At last but not least,I hope that people should emphasis on the problem of global climate change,so that we can help ourselves to live in a comfortable environment and breath clear air.

Yes I agree with these, I think you can make your own decisions, know what is bad and what not and take awareness about drinking before you have 21,in many countries people start drinking very young and 18 is the age of adulthood in the United States, and adults should have the right to make their own decisions about alcohol consumption. Other reason because I agree whit this argument is that in many places exist a lot of barriers and hangs and many countries want to rid drink alcohol but almost all people who are under 21 but bigger than 15 or 16, they start drinking whit their friends in some house or some place that nobody see them. So although the law say that people cant drink under 21 people do it, so is better to change this law or to dispel it and leave people decide if they want to drink or not. For example I start drinking when I was 19 and I drink more or less once a week and it has not happened to me nothing wrong.

Mayuka: Should Students Have to Wear School Uniforms

# data[].attributes.body
Recently, Japanese students can't choose own clothes in private time. Also, they wear the uniform in our private time. Most junior high school and high school have an uniform. That is like a parts of Japanese commons. So, we have to wear the uniform, when we go to school. Some people said, "The uniform has good effects on our school life." For example, the parent can save own money, and the student can avoid a dangerous situation by my self. For example, if the student wear an uniforms, every one noticed who is a student so they wouldn't get caught up in crime.But, I think the student don't need wear an uniforms. Because, they  lost own identity and original. That is big problem. Also, if every students wear an uniforms, they looks like same.  If we didn't wear the uniform, we can think about my fashion. Such as "Which clothes I will wear tomorrow?" like that. We can learn fashion trend by self. Also, we can get ability to judge for fashion. That's important skill for the future. If someone, who want to be a fashion designer, the uniform is an obstacle to her. If we didn't wear the uniform, we can cultivate many skills!!  They have to tear off an uniform. Therefore, we have to appeal for that problem. The government, they need argument for this problem.

Hello I'm Yuya. I'm from japan which is east Asia and next to China. Today I introduce my family.

Our family is six member. I have one older sister and two older brothers.

My father is working for big company. There are many sections. He designs air conditioning system in whole building. Air conditioning system is that make circulation not to pollute room air and exchange inside air and outside air.

My mother works for cooking for students lunch and dinner. In japan we don't have to take boxed lunch in elementary and middle high school. They prepare for lunch. It is so delicious because lunch is made before 4or5 hours we eat,so it is fresh and menu is health.

My sister works for company which sell “Nabe” which is traditional japanese foods. Her section is to calculate expense and revenue. She remains single and spend free time to her hobbies, travel.

My one brother is employed by game center company. He likes to play game and see kids laughing.

He is liable to watch baseball.

Other brother is working for ''pachinko'' which is Japanese gambling niche comparable to that of the slot machinein Western gaming. A pachinko machine resembles a vertical pinballmachine, but has no flippers and uses a large number of small balls. but has no flippers and uses a large number of small balls. I don't know why he choose this jobs. Because people who do pachinko is crazy and idiot and happen many trouble there. However, he can make much money so he has nice watches and expensive car.

He sought to earn money so that he spend in luxury.

This is may family. Thank you.

Hi,I'm Viki.
I'm very glad to meet you in ELS!
I born in Hubei,and grew up in Shanghai.Although i left my hometown when i was 5, i love both of them.
Since Shanghai is the center of economy in my country so that my father took me to Shanghai to get better education.I'm extremely appreciated that my parents try their best to give me a better environment to study.That's why i came to US.Since I haven't a knack for languages,i have to improve my language skills.After i graduate from ELS,I'm going to get master degree in Marquette University, and my major is computational science because i'm really mechanically inclined and have a head for figures.
There is a pool in my house,so my parents and I raise 5 tortoises and lots of fish in it.Three of them was brought from market and the others are them children.They love to bask themselves on stones,and when anyone want to see them,they will jump into the pool immediately.How cute they are!
My hobbies are playing computer games and playing card games.There is a kind of card game called Wolf Killer,which can train my capacity of logic and my expression.I'm fascinated in that game because i have a way with words .Consequently,I play the game weekly wherever i am.

Hello everyone! I want to introduce myself. My name is Arwa and I am 25 years old. I am from Dammam, Saudi Arabia. I am a wife and a mother for a beautiful family. I consider myself lucky to have them in my life.
I am a morning person. I like to wake up early and go outside when the weather is just fresh. I like coffee, music, travel and reading poetry. I am interested in psychology. I like to think that everyone has a diverse character full of good and bad qualities. In contrast, this diverse can be the source for a lot of questions that I can hopefully know how to answer it some day. Furthermore, I am interested to know how people's interaction have changed from generation to another. I hope some day I have the opportunity to study psychology or at least take a few classes. Now, I am feel happy and glad because I am in ELS studying English to evolve my English skills, and I am trying to focus on it. Eventually, I do not want to forget to mention that i had a wonderful time in Wisconsin state, specially in Milwaukee and Madison cities. This is a picture for my preferable place in Wisconsin which is Devils Lake.

Hi everyone. My name is Yanbo Jia and I come from China. My hometown is Harbin which a city have similar climate to Milwaukee, as a result, when most of my classmates are worry about the cold weather and the heavy snow in winter, I feel really exhilarated about that. What's more, when it's December in Milwaukee, the scene at the lakeside is really tremendous.
I'm kind of person who is indefatigable which means I always apply myself perseveringly to the tasks given me. And the inspiration let me have such a character is, in my opinion, the strong wanting to be successful. However, this kind of personality make me sometimes neglect the things around me such as my friends and my families especially when i have been give some tough mission. As a result, I'm always trying to find a balance point between my task and my social relation and make them a confluence. On the other hand, expect for the perseverance, I'm really easy to get alone with, and I hope I can be a good friend to all of my classmates and teachers.
When I finish my studying in ELS, I'll be back to UWM to continue my school work there. Finance is my subject which a really hot major but the diploma won't help me to find a decent job. What I need are different kinds of certificates, for examples, ACCA, CFA and so on. All of these certificates need tons of hard work which means there is still a long way to go after my undergarduate course.
It's my honor to study in ELS and study with you guys. Hopefully, we can have a good time in ELS and improve our English skills as well
