No Technology? No way!

Technology has become a necessity for humanity today, you need to work, to study or to communicate with family and friends, even so necessary sometimes sends us over the edge by the feeling that we are monitored and we have to answer emails, calls or messages because if in a few minutes someone will ask, are you okay? The technology done amazing things for humanity, but looking at it from that point, serves to control you do, where you do and how you do it, it's hard peel of technology but in some cases it is healthy to get away from it and think about other things, enjoy life without worries even for a while.

Finding a Niche: The Challenge for Young Inmigrants

The immigrant experience should be a little difficult in some ways, you're going to face new customs, new foods and new culture in general, the unique way to cope with that in a good way is to open the mind to new things and be tolerant with people are going to teach you about the culture. One of the hardest things should be to keep your native language, and also would face a new language that you have to learn if you want to follow the mainstream and do not feel suppressed by it. In this unit we were assigned group work talk about the problem of migration in Sierra Leone, the truth that I learned a lot and opened my mind to see that some countries have very difficult and cruel realities. That taught me to appreciate a little the country in which I live.

      

Goodbye to the Sit-Down Meal

Sit-Down mealtime, so patiently to lost a bit with heavy loads of work and study, eating delicacies, fine wine and enjoy the food has been forgotten.

Now the workforce in enterprises has only one hour of time to eat their food, barely enough to feed that is something that should change. Employees are witnesses of the new policies on that subject, and sometimes for more speed and convenience has to eat at fast food restaurants that have overrun around large companies.

Whats the use of homework

The task but not like it is a duty strengthen the knowledge of classes so you can learn in a better way, but we have to sacrifice things like our time or share with family and friends but at the end of the course or semester we to have tangible results and new knowledge that we had. It just takes a bit of concentration and desire to excel in order to do it. The task order is knowledge we have to learn on our own.

Giving to Others

In the world there are all kinds of people, people that maybe are the same as any other, but perhaps their economic status is not the same, people who for one reason or another can not work, then they cant earn money to survive, fortunately some people who earn more money, they share some of their money to give a better life to others and they can cause a change in the moral of other people, and create a little awareness for more people to help such causes, either publicly or anonymously like that matters is getting these fundraisers, as in the case of Angelina Jolie and her husband Brad Pitt who are faithful helpers of many African peoples.

Longevity

Seniors are people full of wisdom and love stories, full of bold that life has taught, lived times of bitterness and solidarity which helped in the founding of the society and could brag about it but they just want to relax a bit and give advice to young people to help in his self-improvement. Costa Rica is one of the countries with the highest level of longevity in the world. In this unit caught my attention that there are scientific studies that woman live longer than men. Within habits to have a long and healthy life is to exercise, do not smoke or drink alcohol and eat lots of fruits and vegetables every day doing this we ensure a long life.

Animal Intelligence

It's amazing how smart how can be an animal, animals such as parrots, monkeys, dolphins and whales are able to recognize themselves in a mirror, use tools and socializing with humans and even somehow deceive to get food or something, is intriguing rote memory capacity can have animals and also capacity may have to figure out, cases like the gorilla Koko are tangible signs of feelings and reasoning which may have an animal.  

Early to bed, early to rise….

Sleep is a fundamental part of human well-being, sleep allows us to "recharge" our body, feel good and improve your mood. Also prevents you catch 40 winks, especially a night where you burn the midnight oil and you nod of on the couch or something that is suspected to be a miserable night.

If you want a happy day, feeling very well, take a good rest after a long day. In this unit, what caught my attention was how companies make their employees to take naps to improve their performance at work. The MetroNaps I think is a very interesting proposal for companies that want to implement this type of system in their companies.

The Achiles Heel

People with disabilities often are awesome for the rest of their capabilities and how to how to face their problems with courage and bravery, in the unity of the book, we saw successful disabled which but how really struck me was the Physicist Steven Hopkins, who is a person who suffers from sclerosis but is extremely intelligent. He did not collapse with their disease instead overcame all the difficulties and not feel overwhelmed by the situation that was happening the limitations seen as something that was in store for a larger force, not God because he is an atheist and has no those beliefs, but in store for.  He has made important discoveries about the theories of black holes, worm holes and theories of the fourth dimension. I find it amazing how this particular person can be as successful and overcome his illness bravely.

Information Overload

In this world where technology increasingly brings us to our friends and family also brings us closer to the rest of the planet and all that goes on, we can have access to news from around the world in a minute, either through the television, radio, computer or Smartphone. The ability to transmit data over long distances allows us to be informed of everything that increases our intake of daily news, whether sports news, politics or events. In this book, we drive the benefits and disadvantages of being always informed, personally I found its very interesting that you can be addicted to news and that can be a problem. Overall it was a very good topic to start the classes.

One of the remedies to avoid information that barrage is disengaged for a while with the technologies in other words would be like not turn on the TV, radio or phone and go for a walk or take a ride in bicycle.
