Little Review of the Clash of Civilizations

For the context, I'd like to mention that this year I've successfully passed all exams and from the autumn I'll be studying international relations in Czech Republic. I'm Ukrainian, and I wouldn't say that international relations have been attracting me all my life, but I think the invasion and other unexpected happenings have changed my view on the foreign policy.
So year before I started to read as much as possible literature, articles and news about what's happening in the globalized world, behind and in front of Ukraine. I've read some significant books, which authors I regard as one of the best political analysts and writers (I mean Kissinger and Brzezinski, Idk. if his polish surname is written correctly). But also a year before I found a really difficult book to read by Huntinghton, based on his own theory of international relations, ''Clash of Civilizations''. I won't take up your time by explaining the detailed aspects he included in his theory, but I will try to summorize his work in a few words.
The main subject he maintained consists in remaking of the world order, after the collapse of USSR, when the bipolarized world ceased to exist. The America was left alone in a world with no enemies, China was far long from its nowadays dominant position, Russia was left weakened and ashamed, but cured and abolished from the "red illness". After this constant world order, there came out the new one, based not on ideologies, but nations as the major influence in foreign affairs. Huntington says that the nations and cultures will play main role in the modern world, but at the same time he consciously omits all unions, all organizations, that are based not on the nationality, but on state's own reasons and ambitions. This made this book weird for me, but the worst part of the book was exactly about Russo-Ukrainian relations. I understand, that the book came out in 1994, in the period, when no one could even think about possibility of war between "slavic brothers", but still, the quatation like
"I don't believe in Russo-Ukrainian conflict because they are both partrs of the Orthodox civilizations" still remains weird for me, even despite the year the book was firstly published.

長い間書いてなかった。勉強するのはとても難しいよ!このジャンルにもっと書きたいけどしょうがない、俺は時間が少ししかない。今日はあまりやらなかった、Assassins Creed 3 Remasteredをして勉強した今はsupernaturalを見てる。もっと琴葉を知らなきゃ、まだ2000語しか知らない。もし4000語を知らなかったら、N3に合格できない。答えはいつももっと読むことだ。だけど、最近はもっと書くことも答えだと思うよ。だからもっと練習します。とにかく疲れててねるよ!おやすみ!

Good afternoon

Hi everybody
This is my fourty day using Chapgpt to practice my English, I feel that it's a great tool but some of his answers are predictive. Also sometimes he throw up texts in other languages, but by and large it work out.
I'm gratefull about all of the people that take a moment to correct my texts, generally I make sure to answer their corrections with a short phrase.
I hope one day become in an expert english speaker and perhaps write my book in English too. I don't know, all is possible.

Hard day before exciting weekend.

Hi. Today was a hard day. Again. There was a lot of issues at work, but I anyway was able to attend two hiring interview. Now I'm waiting for employers' decisions. At evening me and my wife went to the big grocery store for buying groceries and beverages for the weekend, because tomorrow we're going to the nature for three days. It's so exciting, because there will be a huge group of people we don't know. We know only one couple, who invited us. We are introverts and it's hard for us to meet new people. But it's comforting that those people have a same hobby with us. This hobby is music open air festivals. We go to the festivals every year, but there was a break during the covid pandemic. We hope, that we find a common language with these people.

今日の単語:自己紹介

初めまして、ケイラと言います。
アメリカに住んでて、日本語の勉強中です。
数年間以上に勉強しましたけど、いつも止んだりしたりしてしまいますので、あまり上達できませんでした。

私はもう30代のおばさんなので、なんで日本語まだ勉強し続けたいのだろうとみんなは考えるかもしれませんね。
ただ日本語が好きなものです。日本の文化とか音楽にも興味があって、もっと関心できるように、日本語の習得に努力します。
よろしくお願いいたします。

La mia città preferita è Roma

Sono andata a Roma una settimana fa. Era cosi bella. Ho visitato Collesseo, Fontana di Trevi, Piazza di Spagna e Pantheon. Ho mangiato il pizza margherita, il tiramisu e il gelato. Erano deliziosi :) Ho bevuto un Aperol Spritz a Piazza di Navona. Ho incontrato una ragazza e un ragazzo. Abbiamo chiacchierato. Erano molto cordiali. Voglia andare a Roma di nuovo. Ma questa volta voglio restare più a lungo.

Writting about IA

I recently watched a Ted Talk about IA, it is impressive how algorithms operate on such an enormous scale. I had not realized how IA had permeated our daily life activities, maybe because I’m not really into technology, I was not aware of its implications.
For an average stay-home mom, it is almost impossible to understand how IA operates, but I am into social media and I came to understand that the algorithms that facebook and IG create, involves me in such a delicate way that I am part of something bigger than a like.

Through the years I have been using social media to connect with old colleagues and entertain myself, without any shame, I can tell that I spend barely two hours a day checking what is new in the digital space. I read, I post, I give likes and spend time checking what interests me. What I did not know is that I was giving digital power to huge companies to analyze and categorize me in order to give this data. So even though I am not a digital person, I give important information to digital companies on a daily basis.

As an ordinary person, I truly believe that IA is taking over us in ways that we do not fully understand, for instance some people use it to help them navigate daily activities and make their life more easy, however, what people do not realize is how through an innocent search we are feeding massive algorithms that we not longer understand how operates. It is scary if you ask me, the world as we know it may not be the same after IA gets out of hand.

Fortschritt im Deutschlernen

Ich habe seit einiger Zeit Deutsch gelernt, aber ich denke, dass ich nicht so viel Fortschritte wie ich sollte gemacht habe. Diese Seite hat mir definitiv beim Schreiben geholfen und ich bin schon gut im Lesen, obwohl ich meinen Wortschatz noch erweitern muss. Ich übe mein Hören mit Liedern aber nicht mehr so oft. Ich finde Mediengestalter hilfreicher, aber ich kann keine gute Videos finden. Sie sind mir entweder zu undeutlich oder zu langsam. Mein Sprechen ist schlecht, weil ich auf Deutsch fast nie spreche. In ein paar Monaten werde ich einen Sprechpartner haben, also werde mein Sprechen sich hoffentlich verbessern. Ich denke manchmal auf Deutsch in der Zwischenzeit, um meine Sätze besser fließen zu lassen.

BOB

Bob lives in a small flat in London. In the mornings, he wakes up and has a shower. Then he makes breakfast. He usually has a typical English breakfast with eggs and bacon. After that, he goes to work.

He works in an office in the center of London. He sits in front of the computer all day and writes emails. He doesn't like his job very much, but he likes earning money. At 12 o'clock he goes to lunch and has a sandwich. After lunch, he comes back to work and writes more emails. At 5 o'clock he leaves work.

He sometimes sees his girlfriend in the evenings. She lives on the opposite side of London, so he takes the Underground.

arte

Même si je n'ai pas une télé, arte est ma chaîne préférée. J'utilise youtube ou la médiathèque pour regarder arte. J'aime regarder des reportages. Que ce soit de nature ou de culture. J'aime tout ça.
En plus, tout est en français et en allemande. C'est bonne pour pratiquer le français.

Quella volta che sono rimasta vittima di un incidente

Era un pomeriggio d’estate e stavo andando in bicicletta al parco con una mia amica. Faceva caldo, c’era il sole e tutto sembrava perfetto. A un certo punto, mentre attraversavo un incrocio, un’auto non si è fermata allo stop e mi ha colpito leggeramente. Sono caduta a terra e mi sono fatta male al ginocchio. Fortunatamente non era nulla di grave, solo una contusione, ma mi sono spaventata molto. L’autista è sceso subito dall’auto, si è scusato e mi ha accompagnato al pronto soccorso. Dopo qualche giorno di riposo, sono tornata a camminare normalmente. Da quel momento, però, faccio sempre molta attenzione quando attraverso la strada, anche in bicicletta!

Livres de poche

Aux livres numériques je préfère toujours les livres de poche. Un avantage des livres de poche est que c'est assez facile de pouvoir faire une pré-lecture et feuilleter un peu pour comprendre le thème du bouquin. En plus, je ne lis pas toujours linéarement et quand je lis profondément j'aime bien pouvoir tourner aux pages antérieures pour mieux comprendre le contexte que j'ai déjà lu. Avec les livres numériques, je trouve ce processus assez ecombrant et labourieux comparé aux livres de poche.

Mais en réalité je passe beaucoup plus de temps devant l'écran de mon ordi que dans les pages jaunies d'un bon roman qui traîne sur mon étagère, malheureusement. Ce prompt m'inspire à aller bouquiner un peu.

Le cours d’arte au centre communautaire

Il y a un centre communautaire à huit rues de chez moi qui a ouvert il y a deux ans. Ils proposent divers cours. J’ai remarqué qu’il avait une classe d’arte. Le cours d’arte m’intéressait alors je me suis inscrite. Le cours n’était pas bon. Les autres ēlèves et moi n’avons rien appris. La professeure mettrait des objets sur une table et dit, “Dessinez!” Elle n’a pas parlé de composition, d’ombrage, de perspective. Toutes las classes étaient les mėmes. Nous regardions à des objets sur une table et nous essaierons de les dessiner. De nombreux étudiants ont perdu tout intérêt pour le cour. Les inscriptions ont chuté et le cours a été annulé.

「時間」は全人類の敵

僕はずっと前からそのことを心の底から信じています。
なぜなら、「時間」は苦しみをもたらすものですから。


皆様、考えてください。

毎朝の目覚ましの音、リポートの締め切り、冷蔵庫の奥のプリンの消費期限 

なぜこれらのものは存在するでしょうか?
そう、全ては「時間」のせいです!

ですから、これから僕達は「時間」を気にせずに生きていきましょう!

目覚ましの音を気にせずに寝ましょう!
リポートの締め切りを気にせずにサボりましょう!
プリンの消費期限を気にせずに食べましょう!

そうしたら、僕達は絶対に幸せになれるです!

My present job responsabilities

Responsibilities:
. Front-end team leader at the company. My main responsibilities include training new team members by introducing the technologies and frameworks we use, as well as explaining the company's systems, their features, and our work methods.

好きなもう一人の歌手

(バンドでも「歌手」と言えますか?)

昨日はTaylor Swiftのことを書いて、それで「一番好きな日本のアーティストは誰でしょうか」と考えさせられました。やっぱり、好きな日本のアーティストは「ヨルシカ」しかいないんです。どんな国の曲でも、私はポップ音楽が好きみたいです。ボーカルのsuisさんの声が大好きで、歌詞も私にもわかるくらいシンプルなのに、とても意味が深いです。

実は、最初に日本語を覚えたのは音楽を通してでした。友だちがVOCALOIDを紹介してくれて、いつも字幕付きの動画を見ていました。あまり深刻なことを考える必要がなかったので、翻訳を読みながら、一緒に歌うことにたくさん時間を使っていました。知らないうちに、簡単な文法や表現を覚えていました。

私はすでに二つの語族の言語がわかるので、日本語とは関係がなくても、多分これができたのだと思います。言語を勉強していない人にこういうことを言うと、きっと偉そうに聞こえるが、「意味」と「言葉」の関係を気づいて、それを新しい言語にも見つけるのは、本当に難しいことです。ただ一対一で訳すだけではありません。その点では、すでに二つの言語を話せると少し楽だと思います。
