The physical dictionary gave many different meanings but not the pronunciation. I will try something -new technology which is useful for my writing. kkhine https://padlet.com/Janetml1/qlsd3vktqa73/wish/386089972 2019-09-18 16:53:03 UTC https://padlet.com/Janetml1/qlsd3vktqa73/wish/386089972 Will Birney https://padlet.com/Janetml1/qlsd3vktqa73/wish/387497621 So I want to tackle a new thing.

Its hard for me to wake up early in the morning to go to the gym, which actually it has been my goal for a couple of months and means I have my gym membership but haven't been using it for months. I feel like I could go to the gym two times a week that would be a start to start my lifestyle of being healthy. ]]> 2019-09-21 05:23:31 UTC https://padlet.com/Janetml1/qlsd3vktqa73/wish/387504018 https://padlet.com/Janetml1/qlsd3vktqa73/wish/387510972 A new habit I might try is not eating out and just buying groceries and cooking myself meals.]]> 2019-09-21 06:53:35 UTC https://padlet.com/Janetml1/qlsd3vktqa73/wish/387510972 Hello!

I've been studying different ways just so i can see how other methods work. It's going great!! I’ve seen a slight difference in my new habit because I'm retaining more information. I think everyone should try something different if their comfortable, switch it up sometimes!

Don't forget to smile,

We underestimate the power our words can have on one another. Instead of knocking people down, why not build their spirit up? During this challenge I will make sure to only say compliments that are truthful and meaningful. What I hope to get out of this challenge is to create positive energy that can impact mine and others lives.

It can become super distracting as is a huge reason why I procrastinate a lot. I think it will be helpful in giving myself more time to focus on schoolwork without any distractions. Hopefully it works and sticks even AFTER the 30 days :)

However in doing these online classes, this is now something that I cannot be doing anymore so turning in and doing homework’s on time I and everything else I do in my personal life, I am going to do it wil time.

So far, I've learned that most Asian languages are categorized as syllabary, which is more similar to what western civilization's writing system: alphabet, instead of being more similar to Chinese writing system: logogram. Logogram is a writing system where each character represents the apparent form of an object. For example, the word "sun' in Chinese actually looks like the sun. This is surprising to me because even Korean, which looks like logogram, is actually syllabary. In addition, Chinese is categorized into the Sino-Tibetan language family, yet Chinese is logographic, Tibetan is syllabary and looks like Arabic. Thus leaving me wondering how they classify languages.

I didn't like to eat uncooked spinach because the Chinese spinach must be cook before eating. But I found the salad spinach in US can be ate raw, and I heard it's better than lettuce. However I'm not used to the taste of raw spinach. But I will continue to eat raw spinach for the next 30 days. - Zixu Gu]]> 2019-10-07 05:16:47 UTC https://padlet.com/Janetml1/qlsd3vktqa73/wish/394259585 30 Day Challenge https://padlet.com/Janetml1/qlsd3vktqa73/wish/394262823 For my 30 day challenge I decided to educate myself every time I used technology.

I decided to meditate at least once a day for the 30 day challenge. I also have started making an effort to practice yoga or other calming exercises. At first, I was meditating just at night. Now, I am incorporating meditation into my morning routine as well. I have found that I can practice mindful breathing even while I am completing another task such as driving. I am really excited about this new habit, as I am already feeling a lot less anxious and more level-headed. ]]> 2019-12-05 20:51:31 UTC https://padlet.com/Janetml1/qlsd3vktqa73/wish/420492901
