As a student we must always keep our body healthy. There are 3 tips that Nurse Chen had discussed on the orientation about how to keep our body healthy. The first one is eat a well balanced meal. A well balanced diet provides the nutrients we need for growth and repair, helping us to stay strong and healthy and help to prevent diet related illness, such as cancers. The second tip is to increase physical activity. Exercise helps people lose weight and lower the risk of some diseases. The third and last tip is create a sleeping schedule. Consistently getting quality sleep will improve your student's mental, emotional, and physical performance. It improves their immune system, balances hormones, boosts metabolism, and improves brain function. 

 In a working place environment there are 2 types of skills that a person should have, these are the hard skills and the soft skills. Hard skills are learned abilities acquired and enhanced through practice, repetition, and education like being able to use adobe photoshop, premier and illustrator. Soft skills are character traits and interpersonal skills that characterize a person's relationships with other people, soft skills have more to do with who people are, rather than what they know. Some examples of soft skills are communication skills, time management, teamwork and self-discipline. Most people think that hard skills are much more important than soft skills but according to the Asian Institute of Management the top 10 skills sought by CEO’s over the world are all soft skills. Both skills are important so that’s why it's a good practice to develop our soft skills just like our hard skills.

 The last topic that Sir Sherwin discussed on us was the 4 things to focus on. The first thing that we should focus on is being too emotional, your emotions can greatly affect how you interact with other people, how you deal with important decisions, and what your entire day will be. Being able to control your emotions can help you become mentally stronger. The second thing that we should focus on is being too shy and modest, we must know how to present our projects or outputs with proudness and pride. We must learn how to fully express our emotion to other people without being shy. The third thing that we should focus on is ask other people about your career, asking for advice from other people can help widen your perspective on that topic and can help you make the right decisions. The fourth and last  thing that we should focus on is demand more from yourself if you want the best in life,if you’re not doing your best, then you’re operating at a lower level, you’re compromising your standards and you’re setting yourself up to create bad habits and attitudes that accept consistently substandard performances.

 

 Learning doesn't stop at school, life itself is a continuous process of learning. Nothing in our life is permanent, the things that surround us will and continue to change over time so that's why we also must keep learning new things while we are still living for us to be able to keep up and adjust to the new things that are coming. We can learn new things not just by reading books or in school, we can also learn new things by experiencing it. Not everything that can be learn is contained in books, a person  can learn a lot and retain what he/she learns through experience.
