First semester has come to the end Today is 13th September. I just finished my speaking test for the final exam. All that I can conclude from the test is I need to improve my English proficiency. I was in the same group with my class rep, Iskandar Azlan, Alia Md Lani and one of the best speaker in my class, Aishah Ismail. At first, when I assigned to be in their group, I was very nervous. Aishah is the best speaker as she does not even need any text if she is doing the presentation. She got a lot of ideas and can talk spontaneously. Before this, my faculty held a MUET workshop and it is compulsory for all the students to attend the workshop. The saddest part is the workshop was held during the weekend. I felt quite frustrated as I thought that I might lose my weekend. But after being in the workshop for two days, I think that it is worth it to lose my weekend. The workshop was really beneficial and I got a lot of input from it. I learned how to write an essay, to answer the reading part and many tips on how to sit the speaking test. Two weeks ago, the first semester for the degree students has started. A great deal of them came and registered at my college. Dataran cendekia, Mawar’s food court has been occupied with degree students. It was quite difficult for us to buy food there. There were so many people at the food court and we have to queue up to buy food. It means that if I want to buy food, I have to buy it earlier. Before this, I had my dinner at 8PM but now, I have to buy and eat the food at the evening. I do not want to waste my time by lining up for an hour just to buy a plate of nasi lemak. I got tons of assignments to do and I prefer eating instant noodles rather than buying food there. However, it does not mean that I always eat instant noodles as it is not good for my health. Staying in this urban area, I really have to save up. Everything is costly now. I am no longer live in the place

    When eating a pre-made meal, the consumer is not consciously thinking of the creation of the meal as closely as they would if they partook in the slow food movement. The convenience that pre-made meals offer to the consumer distances the connection of the eater to the food. The slow food movement wishes to move from the idea of convenient foods and back to the idea of putting time into what you're eating. The act of consuming food in a social environment is something the slow food movement offers Pollan blames the diminishing conventional family dinner to the creation of meals as such (Omnivore's Dilemma 272). The convenient, to-go meals can take away table time, however, the opposition to this is a major downfall of the movement.…

    As consumers and inactive participants, “...we have neglected to understand that we cannot be free if our food and its sources are controlled by someone else” (Berry 2). People find themselves in such a rush with a limited amount of time to eat because we have other responsibilities to take care of such as work or school and then once again we rush through those responsibilities trying to make time for other activities. This rush that people often find themselves in has lead to consuming more fast food due to the lack of time for cooking healthy, homemade…

    This is the first opportunity for me to present information of any topic to my class in a while. I’m not sure if I remember the last time I presented in front of a class full of people, which made me very nervous for this presentation especially in front of people I didn’t know and had never talked to before. As the date for me to present was arriving I began to get more nervous because again I haven’t done this is a while but once I entered the class I did a good job of keeping my nerves down and simply reading the slides to the class and presenting the information of my particular dialect very well I feel like. For many people presenting such things are enjoyable and fun for them but for me I’ve never been a big fan of presenting in front of a classroom full of students and in this case a classroom full of students I don’t know.…

    My mom has a brain tumor. She had it since 2004 and was able to get most of it surgically removed 4 years ago. But in those 11 years where she had it, I felt hopeless. She was my mom and I had to see her be in constant pain due to the seizures she would have. There was nothing I could do. The doctors in America said it was too dangerous to operate so she was forced to receive treatment in Taiwan. Because of it, I was always scared whenever I got a call from my dad. I was scared that he was calling because my mom had passed. I did not go out often because I was worried. Whenever we went on family trip, I had to be by my mom, in case a seizure were to…

    I never actually attended UConn as a degree student. Although it is true that I enrolled late in the summer of 2009, it was only for the briefest amount of time. I enrolled late at UConn because unforeseen financial issues in my family made attending the other schools I was accepted into a terrible idea. However, quickly after enrolling I came to the realization that I had no concise plan of action towards a specific degree. I was enrolled in a mishmash of different classes that did not take me towards any direction. Therefore, I decided to drop the courses I was enrolled in, and instead work full time and save money to pay for college on my own. Unfortunately, unbeknownst to me, some kind of error must have occurred in this process. I thought…

    Life is full of adventures and experiences. The key to living well is making these experiences as meaningful as possible. I went through a very significant experience, which was actually more of a risk, about two years ago. I was 15 years old and I had to decide whether I would stay in my hometown or move to Monterrey, Mexico. As in every dilemma faced, there are pros and cons that will try to sway you. Time wouldn’t stop and the day of my decision was getting closer and closer; the less time I had to decide, the more confused and undecided I became. All I could do was imagine myself living the future in my hometown or in Monterrey. But, why was I put into this situation? Should I have stayed where I was born and where I’d lived my whole life or would the best thing be to move to an entirely new city?…

    On our subject, Hospice Accommodation, our teacher was telling us about our final project which is conducting a seminar. We are tasked on Housekeeping Department. At first, I thought it was just a piece of cake, but I was wrong, it was the total opposite. It was really difficult to organize a seminar. Most especially if you are a first timer of doing such things. To make it easier, we divided the tasks to our group mates; I was assigned of doing the paper works such as the certificates, program, encoding the letters and a lot more. It was really stressful particularly on finding a speaker. Four hotels rejected our request and the day that was assigned to us to have our seminar was fast approaching. We quite felt hopeless, but our dedication makes us more determined to find a guest speaker. After lots of unwelcoming approach to the past hotels, God is so good because he took us to Crown Hotel and has Mr. Thom Richard Dy as our guest speaker. I thought it will run smoothly since we have already our speaker, but it wasn’t stop there, because we find it hard in terms of approving our certificates to our dean and our chairperson. It took us days after it has been approved by them. There are lots of requirements to be submitted and we are grateful that we accomplished all of that successfully.…

And then, he must find useful data and information for his title. And he must compose words how will he say in the competition. He, however, cannot compete only by speaking, he must make body movements to complete his competition. The most important point is that he must not be afraid of stage. People use to fear when they are in front of many people and they have to present something. So, I was preparing for all of that fact. One day, my class teacher made an announcement. It was that there would be an impromptu speech competition. Student who wanted to participate, warmed her. So, I gave her my name in a great pleasure. I had my titles of speech and I started to find useful information as much as I could. I was so nervous to compete. But I was so happy. I trained very hard with my topic. My friends helped me and I presented my topic in front of them and they made suggestions. When I thought I was perfect, I went to my class teacher and presented to her. And then, she made a grammatical wrong correction and made useful suggestion. The competition fell on and many students were crowed in the school compound. They were very interested in the competition and they predicted the winner. The competitors held a piece of paper and practiced with their topic. After a short time, the announcer announced that the competition started.…

    A year ago, I attended a traditional Ukrainian funeral, which was a first for myself. It was an experience that I will never forget, as it was a lot different from any other funeral I have attended. I attended the funeral with my grandmother, as it was for her aunt and I felt it would be beneficial if she attended with someone. On the way to the funeral I had no idea what I was about to experience. On the way out I remember feeling very weird about what all had taken place.…
