December 14
Right now, I’m listening to the presentation of the University part of the College counseling but they are explaining in Spanish and I don’t understand anything, so I’m writing my English diary because I want to use my time more effectively. I thought Spanish is very difficult but after learning German, I realized German is more difficult than Spanish.

Again and again...
I've been learning English, again and again, with the firm intention that one day I'll be as fluent as a native. Is my dream too big? I set out a long and schizophrenic way, on which I am swung by hopes and doubts. I keep thinking positively, meditating, visualizing my ambitions to make them a reality. I use to have weeks 'with' and weeks 'without'. Sometimes, words do not come out, and I feel that the only place I am progressing is in my head. I can talk to myself in English for hours, with the right words, the right syntax, a better pronunciation. It is an ecstatic feeling, that fills my hopes. I'd love to be confident enough to speak loudly and publicly the same way I talk to myself. I used to be so handy with words in French, allowing me to articulate complex ideas, excel in problem-solving, and now, I feel being the dumbest people in the room. Not having enough words constrains my thought process. Am I sound daunting? Yeah, I prefer to think that it is part of the learning process, I prefer to think that I am a Tortoise that will meet the Hare at the end of the race. I needed to share these thoughts with you guys. Maybe one of you will feel me :) Thank you in advance for the correction, and if it rings a bell to you, do not hesitate to comment!

Entrada 7
Estoy leyendo el libro “La Resistencia” de la serie “Memorias de Idhún”. Hoy leí el capítulo uno. Me gusta la historia por ahora. Tengo curiosidad por los orígenes de Jack, el protagonista, y su conexión al mundo de Idhún. No tengo mucha experiencia con novelas en español (es el tercero) pero me gusta la forma de escribir de Laura Gallego García. Espero terminarlo en más o menos tres semanas porque es un libro de la biblioteca.

Digital minimalism
Jag brukade läsa massor böcker varje år men steg för steg sluttade jag göra det. Istället spenderar jag mer tid på internet, Netflix, Reddit, Instagram, etc. Jag har slutat tänka på allting och ingenting och börjat med vara passiv i livet. Det är svårt nu att fokusera på något; min koncentrationsförmåga är annorlunda och blir värre varje år.
Jag har bestämt mig för att försöka leva en månad fri av digital innehåll. Jag läser en bok nu som kallas Digital Minimalism av Cal Newport för att förbereda mig före den utmaningen. Jag ska göra det i Januari. Jag ska försöka att inte använda alls för hela månaden dessa appar: Facebook, Instagram, Netflix, Reddit och alla liknande. Det kommer att vara några undantag för Netflix och Instagram.
Jag har bestämt mig att använda Netflix och youtube bara för att lära mig svenska. Filmerna och videorna behöver vara på svenska eller händer om det svenska språket.
Jag ska bara använda Instagram för att hålla kontakten med andra vegan konstnärer. Jag kommer att använda Instagram bara ett par gånger om veckan, kanske bara på samma dagar varje vecka.
Efter att månaden är klar ska jag se vilka appar jag verkligen saknade och vilka kan jag raderar från min telefon. Om en app inte ger mig något värde så ska jag sluta att använda den.
Jag vill göra det här eftersom jag tillbringar för mycket tid på Netflix och Reddit. Jag vill inte spendera mitt liv över en skärm och det är dags att göra något.

Study plan
Creating a study plan is harder than I'd thought. I'm going to try different ideas to see if they work. I was thinking about dedicating a day of the week to write something specific, though I'm still figuring it out.
My best friend has a higher English level than mine and my sister is a Spanish-English translator, so I could ask them both for study material.
My main focus is on writing, as it's the skill I want to improve the most. However, I still want to practice speaking, reading and other skills. I also want to broaden my vocabulary.
Will it help with the correction if I write my journals in my native language? I've seen that some of the people who correct my journals study Spanish, but some others don't. I just want to know if it's worth it to take the time to do it.

Did life on Earth come from space? Part four. My thoughts, p
After watching this amazing video "Did life on Earth come from space?" on the YouTube channel "History on the Earth", I was thinking a lot about the origin of life and evolution.
Evolution is a fascinating process when the simplest forms of life have been evolving into the higher forms as well as the intelligent life. The last one gave a diversity of humans, nations, races, languages, cultures, religions and so on. It's really interesting. I am excited thinking about it.
If this fact can be possible that life to Earth came from space, it means that life had begun on another planet.
Nowadays, we are discovering thousands of new exoplanets in orbit. We may yet find advanced civilizations.
Until life is found on another planet, we will never truly know whether we are children of the earth or the universe.

Stein überspringen
Ich habe vor kurzem vom ein beeindruckender Rekord gehört, ein man namens Kurt Steiner hat 88 mal einen Stein übersprungen. Ich wünschte dass ich das mehr oft machen könnte weil es wirklich befriedigend ist. Es gibt auch eine Wissenschaft dazu, man muss den Stein drehend werfen um es zu stabilieseren und auch in einem Winkel, um die Welle, die es es vorwärts schieben erzeugen.

Воспоминания с детства
Я помню, что когда я был ребёнком, я сказал маме, что по-моему был где-нибудь какой-то портал к миру, в котором все люди жили счастливо и не было терпения. Она ответила, что если это было правдой, все люди бы уже тюда поехали.
Я помню, что мои родители брали мне с моём братом и сестрой в очень малый городок названный "Небида". Около городка есть у берегу моря малая гора, на которой есть руины шахты. Я не знаю технических слов, но есть руины строения, в котором шахтёри взяли минералы с шахты. Я очень любил смотреть на это строение с высоты горы с морем за ним.
Я помню, что очень любил прочитать книги и комикси Диснея. В школе моя учительница сказала родителям, что вместо того, чтобы забавить с другими детьми, я часто читал книгу сам на перемене. К сожалению теперь мне трудно прочитать так как делал в детстве.

토픽 64회 #54: 청소년기
청소년기는 굉장히 중요한다. 나이를 먹을 수록 아동에서 어른으로 넘어가는 시기에 똑바르게 변화해야 한다. 호르몬을 바뀌며 집중력이 떨어지는데 사회를 성공하게 가입하자 꼼꼼하게 해야 한다. 아동은 책임감 없이 놀 수 있는데 성인으로 이동하도록 지혜롭게 가르쳐야 한다.
이 시기에 주로 다양한 특징들을 보인다. 외모에는 키가 크지며 얼굴의 모습도 변화한다. 마음속에서는 분노, 우울증, 대답감 다 표현하게 됨으로서 안정을 흔히 찾게 된다. 이상태에서 스타일 또 태도에 변화 볼 수 있게 된다.
청소년의 올바른 성장을 돕자 노력하게 해야 한다. 첫번째, 성인들은 청소년한테 화나게 하지 않다면 위기를 피해할 수 있다. 청소년시에 혼란과 방황을 너무 겪음으로서 부정적인 감정을 능어나면 스트레스를 너무 많이 받아서 삶을 망치질 수 있다. 몸이나 마음이 변화하고 있으면 가족들이 무조건으로 사랑을 보여해야 한다. 또한, 청소년이 심하던 실수도 하면 긍정적으로 안전하게 반응해야 한다. 분노나게 반응하면 청소년이 죽을 때까지 잊지 않겠다. 반면, 너무 자유롭게 키우면 청소년이 함부로 하는 어른으로 바뀜으로 인해 의심적으로도 해야한다. 무엇보다, 청소년에 맞춰야 하고 행동이나 말하기 전에 생각해야 한다.

Looking back 2020
Last year was simple to talk about.
No good news at all.
When you think that was worst.
This year is much worst then last year.
Still some good “things” happen to me.
(March) Find a really good job that I can’t complain.
Hope this job can help me to complete other dreams.
(January) Manage to make a new Japanese friend.
Hopefully someday will meet each other.
(November) Manage to loss few pounds of my fat body.
Hopefully someday can transfer to a “muscle man body”.
(November) A lucky bicycle accident. Why is lucky?
Because I can end up broken the bone instead just damaged the muscle.
What about your 2020?

토픽 64회 #53: 온라인 쇼핑 시장의 변화
2014년과 2018년의 사이에 온라인 쇼핑 시장이 변화하였다. 2014년에는 온라인 쇼핑 시장의 전체 매출액이 46조원이였다. 사용기기에는 소비자들이 14조원을 스마트폰으로 구매했으며 32조원을 컴퓨터로 구매하였다. 2018년에는 온라인 쇼핑 시장의 전체 매출액이 96조원이였다. 소비자들이 53조원을 스마트폰으로 구매했는데 39조원을 컴퓨터로 구매하였다. 매출액이 2배로 증가난 원인은 온라인으로 다양한 상품을 구매가 가능성 때문이다. 컴퓨터 대신에 스마트폰을 사용하는 이유는 쇼핑 접근성이 때문이다.

Raamatupidaja Marike räägib oma tööst.
Raamatupidaja Marike räägib oma tööst.
Ma töötan raamatupidajana eesti-soome firmas juba kaks aastat. Meil on palju toredaid inimesi. Tihti räägin inimestega ja suhtlen klientidega telefoni teel.
Minu tööaeg on paindlik sellepärast mõnikord võin töötada kodust.
Kaks korda kvartalis, mul on vaja aruandeid teha minu ülemuse jaoks. Ma korraldan ka kõik nõupidamisi raamatupidamise osakonnas. Käin kaks korda nädalas koosolekutel minu bossiga.
Mul on ka seitse alluvat. Meie meeskond on väga sõbralik ja professionaalne. Me töötame kiiresti ja kvaliteetselt.
Kaks korda nädalas õpin inglise ja soome keelt sest meie firmal on palju kliente välismaalt. Meil on ka komandeeringud välismaale viis või kuus korda aastas sellepärast sageli meil on vaja rääkida võõrkeelt välispartneritega.
Meil on palka üle keskmise Eestis, aga lisaks saame protsenti.
Ma armastan minu tööd.

Beschwerdebrief
Sehr geehrte Kartenservice,
nach mehreren erfolglosen Versuchen, mich über die IDNow-Website zu identifizieren (die IDnow-Mitarbeiter schienen einfach aufzulegen, sobald sie sahen, dass ich keinen deutschen Reisepass hatte) habe ich mich (offenbar) am Dienstag über den POSTIDENT-Service der Deutsche Post identifiziert. Ich habe noch ein paar Probleme:
1. Es ist meine Vermutung, dass meine Identifikation auch bei der Deutschen Post nicht ausgefüllt werden konnte und dass der Mitarbeiter mir einfach gesagt hat, dass die Legitimation durch war, obwohl das nicht wirklich stimmte. Ist das richtig oder wurde meine Identifikation erfolgreich ausgeführt?
2. Meine Frau hat eine Partnerkarte erhalten, sie ist auch keine Deutsche und ich denke, sie wird die gleichen Probleme wie ich haben, sich zu identifizieren (egal mit IDnow oder über den POSTIDENT). Ist es notwendig, dass sie dies tut, wenn das Kartenlimit freigegeben wird, wenn ich meine Identifizierung vornehmen kann?
Meine Erfahrungen sind bisher sehr schlecht und ich habe überlegt, die Karte ganz zu kündigen. Ich hoffe, dass diese Probleme gelöst werden können.
Mit freundlichen Grüßen
rom

Whether all countries should reduce fossil fuels usage
People have different views about whether all countries should reduce their consumption of fossil fuels. In this essay, I am going explain why I strongly believe that every country should reduce fossil fuel usage.
One of my main arguments is that reducing the consumption of fossil fuels such as gas and oil makes a contribution to environmental conservation. In the modern world, one of the main reasons for environmental contamination is combustion of fossil fuels, and the exhausts of fossil fuels cause air pollution. For example, oil-powered vehicles need a large quantity of oil to drive engines. In this process, fume emissions from cars which contain harmful chemicals will have negative effects on air.
Another main argument is that reducing fossil fuel consumption, the main cause of global warming, also helps to ease the climate change crisis. Nowadays, the climate change crisis has become the main concern of the international community since the increasing temperatures worldwide damages our ecosystem, which will in turn destroy human beings. For the reason that the exhaust from fossil fuels will trap heat from the sun, which causes the greenhouse effect to destroy the ecosystem. For instance, rising temperature will cause melting of polar ice caps and sea levels will rise, therefore depriving the habitats of some animals like penguins and polar bears. As a result, the stability of the whole food chain will be destroyed.
In conclusion, I firmly believe that the international community should take some measures to decline the usage of all countries, because we need to preserve the environment and tackle the climate change crisis.

Mein staubiges Haus
Gestern hatte ich realiziert, dass mein Haus sehr staubig ist. Nach Ich drei Wochen von meiner Reise Hause zurückgekommen bin, merkte ich, dass alle Zimmer meines Hauses staubig geworden sind. Es gibt einen alten Staubsauger in dem Keller, aber seine Tüte ist Weg und er funktioniert auch nicht sehr gut. Ich hatte sofort entschieden, dass ich eine neue Staubsauger kaufen muss. Dann öffente ich die Amazon website und nach ein paar Minuten, hatte ich einen Eco-sicher, tütelosen Staubsauger gefunden. Es war auch billig und ich freute mich sehr an den Einkauf!

Heavy Snow
In my town, it has been snowing for these three days. It's rare that snow piles up like this, so people who live in the city are not used to this situation. The traffic became jammed and some railways stopped. Seeing snow is funny but walking through snow is hard; it's slippy and cold. Therefore, I really appreciate online classes.

我学习中文的5个目标
这是第13天的挑战 （我两三个post前，已经把英文的30填的挑战单子翻译成中文）。
所以我在这里写着我关于中文的5个目标：
1. 首先我第一个目标是提高我的中文写法。我的弱点是写法，所以我在LangCorrect连我的写法。我希望12月结束的时候，我能把基础的中文语法掌握好（太感谢你们帮我修改我的错误！）
2. 我第二个目标是提高我的阅读。我寒假时打算读《小王子》。如果每天不能看完一章，我至少需要看完一页吧。如果太累的话，每天一行也行。
3. 我第三个目标是改成我说错的声调。我说中文的时候，有些词汇我认识，但我不知道他们的声调是什么，所以我想把这个坏习惯戒掉了。
4. 每个星期在 Anki APP 复习词汇两次。
5. 每次听中文歌的时候，写下5个新的词汇，然后学习它们，使用它们组成句子。
我觉得我可以完成这些目标。你们觉得我写着目标是不实现的吗？
完成这些任务对你们来说太吃力了吗？（吃力 = strenuous/too much to handle, 所以最后的问题的英文意思是： to complete these tasks, do you think it's too much to handle? or I'm taking on too much on my plate? Biting off more than I can chew? 中文有没有这些说法？)
