Short answer: I hate them!

In my opinion, there's two type of reality shows:
1. Reality shows, where people act like real, average people.
2. Reality shows, where people act like crazy idiots from Mars, who never lived on Earth.

I have enough experience with average human behavior, so I don't need the first one. The 2nd one is too much for me so if I don't want to screem after 2 minutes, I have to avoid it. I think, these shows are really harmful to people. Since these things have been on TV, people started to act like people in the TV. And reality shows have become even crazier because they have to shoot above average, so a vicious circle is formed. People imitate shows, and shows try to outdo people.
I'm pretty sure it leads to a disaster, a catastrophy, an armageddon or the worst combination of these.

Anyway, there could be reality shows that are good but I don't know, so I acknowledge that my words can't be generalized to every reality show.

E-Books oder Papierbücher?

Mir haben schon immer Papierbücher gefallen: ihre Taktilität, Mobilität und Erscheinung. Nichtsdestotrotz habe ich seit einigen Monaten angefangen, täglich einen E-Reader zu verwenden. Der Wendepunkt für mich war die neue Preis für die „echten“ Bücher. Ich habe angefangen, dieses Thema zu recherchieren.
Aus mehreren Gründen fand ich den E-Reader deutlich praktischer als ein Buch. Erstens ist er viel handlicher: man kann im Voraus tausende Bücher herunterladen und tragen sie in einer Hosetasche. Zweitens könnte man diese E-Books absolut umsonst im Internet erlangen, währenddessen hätte es ein Vermögen kosten, teure Papierbücher zu kaufen.
Nach einer Woche von der Forschung habe ich einen E-Reader gewählt, der mir am liebsten gefällt hat. Ich wollte, dass er einem echten Buch ähnelt: die Größe, das Gewicht und die Bildschirmqualität (die Papierqulität) sind buchstäblich gleich. Ich freue mich sehr über meinen Kauf.

starting to write English

Hi guys! My name is Ali and ı am just found this site from instagram. I don't really know how it's work but directly ı start to write.
Let me explain little bit more myself. I am 25 years old and ı am working as a purchasing engineer in a health and food Company.
ı can speak 5 language. My native language is Kurdish. ı can speak as a native Turkish language. and also ı learnd to spek german and arrabic and little bit english.

learning to speak german was to hard for me but after ı gone to germany my speaking getting better. ı think the most important thing to learn new languages is make regularly practice. And if you living in turkey it's not easy to make practice but maybe you can go some courses or speaking english event.

and ı know that ı can speak the simple things and daily life english is okey for me but ı must improve my speaking skills more! that's why ı am here and also ı am here to meet with new people. ı believe that here will make my english better.

At the end ı would like to say thanks in advance if somebody correct me.

Day 10: I Won't Write Today. This isn't a Text.

In the morning, I decided I won't write today. Not because I don't want to, but because I can't find any topic to write about. So if you read this, you aren't reading it. Trust me.

I started writing about how I'm not writing, which technically counts as writing, so now I'm stuck in an existential paradox. Schrödinger's text: both written and unwritten. I don't know. I stared at the ceiling for 23.23 minutes but all I got was a spider in the corner. I think she writes more than I do today. But I think non-existence is bliss. If a text is not exists, it shouldn't be perfect, right?

Anyway, thanks for not reading this nonexistent text, I appreciate non-attention. Maybe tomorrow I'll write something real. Or I'll ask that spider again. She's very smart. If she exists...

Cinq ans

Le hêtre (Fagus) connaît un cycle de grande abondance environ tous les cinq ans, au cours duquel il produit une quantité exceptionnelle de glands. C’est un phénomène bien connu dans la nature : les petits animaux comme les écureuils adaptent leur population à la quantité de ces fruits. Et lorsqu’une année, les glands tombent en trop grande quantité pour être consommés, ils les enterrent un peu partout. C’est là une stratégie d’une remarquable intelligence de la part de la plante.
J’aime transposer cette stratégie à ma propre vie. Car ce que l’on ne peut pas accomplir en un an ou deux, on peut l’accumuler, patiemment, sans relâche, pendant cinq ans… et finir par atteindre une certaine masse de savoirs, d’expériences, une forme de plénitude. Quand je me lance dans un nouveau défi, je ne me laisse jamais emporter par l’impatience. Car j’ai en tête ce cycle de cinq ans.
Aujourd’hui, cela fait un an et neuf mois que j’apprends le français. Et je crois sincèrement qu’avec encore trois années de persévérance, une grande saison d’abondance m’attend.

English podcasts

I really like listening to English podcast, because it's fun way to learn English and getting used to the English that is used by native speakers. There are so many types of podcast so that everybody can find something that interest them. These are my favourite: 6 Minutes English from BBC, Speak Better English with Harry, The British English Podcast. Do you have any recommendations? I'm curious what native speakers listen to (it doesn't have to be for learning English).

Дионнская яма

Всем привет. Сегодня вам расскажу ещё местную легенду, легенду о дионнской яме.

В городке Тоннере, в Бургундии, находится уникальный карстовый источник бирюзового цвета. Он существует с Античности, и благодаря ему развился маленький город Тоннер. В 18-ом веке, Луи Д'Эон (Louis d'Éon), отец известного Шевалье Д'Эон (однажды я вероятно напишу о нём!), строив бассейн на источнике, превратил его в место для стирки белья.

Один рассказ гласит, что ужасное чудовище жило там: басилиск. Басилиски похожи на драконов и могут возвращать людей в камень взглядом. Он напугал весь Тоннер, который был в то время ещё деревней. Жители спросили у одного священника помочь им. Этот человек назывался Святой Риомский Иван (Saint Jean de Réome). Он не бояля существо, и начал копать, копать, и копать ещё (потому что басилиск жил под землией). Внезапно большое количество воды выхлынуло: Иван нашёл источник, и вода потопила чудовище.

Согласно другой сторией, дьявол сам следовал за бедной девушкой. Она почти могла чувствовать его адскую реку на плече. Отячанная девушка тогда начала молиться Пресвятой Деве, и Дева в пальте изумрудного цвета появилась в ореоле, открыка яму чистой воды и вела девушку в неё. Так она спасла его от дьявола. Но Дева забыла пальто в новом источнике и с тех пор, вода имеет этот особенный цвет.

Во вложении я добавил фото дионнской ямы.

I am a department head of energy meter department which is to implement installation of smart energy meters the whole Yangon and automated reading and billing system in present time. In my past, I handled three township's energy meter department head which we got as a franchise from Yangon electricity Supply Cooperation (YESC). And also I have led as a project engineer for competing many smart energy meter import to government projects tenders. Our company had some projects with my leading skill at Mandalay and Naypyitaw region. At this time, project scope was simple and did not handle financial and business communication. But the present projects are bigger than previous and include many financial, business and leadership skills. Therefore, I need to enhance my skills on financial, business strategy and leadership by learning a master program one solution like MBA. I know there are many MBA courses in local but EMBA courses which is given from Yangon University of Economic is very popular in business sectors and between companies. So, I would like to try to attend an EMBA class there. I believe this program can enhance my business strategy and financial skills.

Bonne fête nationale !

Est-ce que vous allez célébrer aujourd'hui ? Oui peut-être vous l'avez déjà fait le week-end. Je sais que ma ville a organisé une fête hier avec un barbecue et des feux d'artifice. C'était un peu dommage parce qu'il pleuvait fort entre 9h et 10h30, mais j'ai entendu les feux d'artifice après cela.

J'ai remarqué que les Français célèbrent des événements sur le week-end en lieu du vrai jour de l'événement beaucoup plus souvent que les Américains. Le 14 juillet est un jour férié pour presque tout le monde en France donc pourquoi le célébrer le dimanche au lieu du lundi ? Ça ne me dérange pas, c'est juste une curiosité pour moi.

Je sais que mon mari aime les feux d'artifice, mais il n'a jamais demandé d'aller les voir. Il sait aussi que je m'ennuie de les regarder donc peut-être il ne demande pas dans mon intérêt. Je lui proposerai d'aller à la prochaine opportunité.

J'ai grandi à proximité de Disneyland où je pouvais voir les feux d'artifice tous les soirs. J'imagine que c'est pour ça que je ne me préoccupe d'eux. Je me rends compte aussi que je n'ai jamais vu des petits feux d'artifice à vendre en France ; est-ce que ça n'existe pas ? Tant mieux si c'est le cas.

Χτες

Χτες σε πήρα τηλέφωνο αλλά δεν το σήκωσες. Μιλήσαμε στο τηλέφωνο με τη μητέρα μου για πολλή ώρα. Πέταξα το σκουπίδι το βράδυ και γύρισα στο σπίτι. Έπαιξα λίγο κιθάρα και πιάνο. Χτες κολύμπησα για μία ώρα. Μπήκα στο ίντερνετ και ψώνισα. Έπαιξα ένα παιχνίδι στον υπολογιστή. Έβαλα τα ρούχα στο πλυντήριο. Επισκέφτηκα τον φίλο μου στο νοσοκομείο.

Lunedì 14 luglio

All'improvviso, stamattina ho deciso di finalmente tagliarmi i capelli, solo le punte. Ho chiamato il salone vicino a casa mia per prendere un appuntamento.

Per fortuna, sembra che non molta gente vada al salone il lunedì, perché sono passati solo trenta minuti dal momento in cui ho chiamato a quando mi hanno tagliato i capelli.

Credo di essere pronta ad affrontare il futuro e a iniziare qualcosa di nuovo e meraviglioso con il nuovo progetto.

7/13

Today was making roll cake.
I made roll cake in a while so I forgot how to make roll cake but I could make roll cake halfway.
By the way, I went to sleep at 12 o'clock yesterday.
Even though I set an alarm for 7:30, I got up 5:30.
As a result, I felt sleep while making roll cake so I and my mother took turn to make roll cake.
Surprisingly, I had slept for two hours.

My Prefer Reading Style

Hi, good morning. I want to tell you about my reading culture while I have a little free time. As you know, I'm very busy with my school. So I don't have a little time to rest and read a book. Therefore, I read a book on the bus when I going to school and back from school. I always use my phone to read the book on the bus. So I always use eBooks. But I actually always want to read with paper. But it is sometimes not to find easily around my environment. So I always use free website if I want to read a book. I think most people may interest by reading paper. By reading paper, I can feel satisfied and note with one time. But paper always make a garbage for the world. if we use eBooks on digital platform, it can reduce use of paper and can support modern life. But it can effect on our eyes' health. Everybody has mobile phone today so I think eBooks reading is most popular around the world. How about you?

What kind of child were you?

I was very outdoorsy kid and frequently got injured like grazes or breaking bones. I made secret base on a tree and played card games with my friends there. However, I'm not outgoing people now. Painting alone quietly at home with espresso is my favorite weekend.

日本語を学びたいです

こにちは!学校で十三才に日本語の勉強を始めました、でも十三才に日本語の勉強したくないです。この年れいで外国語を学ぶことは、学校のひっしゅうでした。でもその年に私の学校から日本の女子高校は電話しました。だから、日本人友だちを作ることができました。この友だちは「日本語の勉強に頑張って!」と言いました。だから日本語を勉強したいでした!今年に日本で3か月間、学校のこうかん留学をしました。日本でたくさん学びました。とても楽しかったですが、留学をした後でたくさん勉強しません。でも、ペラペラになりたいので、もう一度べんきょうを始めます!

初日のコンサート1

生配信で、好きなバンドのツアーの最初のコンサートを見た。コスチュームやキャラクターがあって、劇みたいでした。バンドは「ザ・ブラック・パレード」というキャラクターを演じました。そして、「独裁者」という悪いキャラクターの蝋人形がありました。キャラクターたちはスピーチをしたり、処刑されたり、歌手は平手打ちを食らったりしました。最後、ザ・ブラック・パレードは独裁者の邪悪な命令に背き、逮捕されて、殺されました。

¿Prefieres los libros electrónicos o los libros en papel?

Uso ambos, pero últimamente he estado leyendo casi exclusivamente en formato electrónico. Disfruto de ciertos aspectos de los libros en papel, como la sensación táctil de las páginas y la posibilidad de ver cuánto me queda por leer. Sin embargo, desde que empecé a leer principalmente en español, las ventajas de los libros electrónicos me parecen demasiado buenas como para ignorarlas. Por ejemplo, puedo resaltar fragmentos para encontrarlos fácilmente más tarde, pulsar una palabra para obtener su definición al instante (ya sea en español o en inglés) e incluso utilizar herramientas como Wikipedia o Google Translate, aunque de forma muy limitada. Ahora que mi español ha mejorado bastante, creo que voy a empezar a alternar con libros físicos.
