REFLECTIONS ON THE COURSE

Students have pretty hectic days. As a result it looks impossible to reasonably juggle all affaires.

If you want to succeed, you have to learn how to prioritize and share your time.

As a matter of fact, vocabulary lessons should be held under the motto “The more the merrier”, but unfortunately the deanery scheduled classes in its sole discretion.  Nevertheless, this subject gives us an indescribable experience.

At the very beginning writing any kind of posts was a considerable difficulty for me, because it demanded putting real efforts. Being a genuine philologist I always wanted to do my best in order to accomplish a task. I have a proper recognition that practice makes perfect. Anyway, many times I procrastinated doing my work.

Happens you come back home and ready to hit the roof because there are too many deals to handle. And while recalling it, you become devastated and severe, almost burst into tears. When finally you start making a blog, you find yourself very resourceful.

I take notice that I’ve contributed a lot. Perhaps, my achievements didn’t often appear during my final tests, but I’m observing a progress. First of all, it’s memorizing of words. You’ll agree if I say that learning the whole units makes you fill jubilant and ecstatic!

I expect this course to be of the same productivity. If I have some complaints, I’ll address them only to myself. Being not able to divide time wisely is my main pet hate.

Expressing my further wishes, I’d like vocabulary classes to foster our enthusiasm and morale. How? – That is the question…

     Guys! I’m in trouble!

     To say the least, I faced with a considerable difficulty. I have no morale anymore, I’m ready to bury my head in the sand! I’m giggling panic… Few hours ago a group of people disjointed my UFO and passed it on scrap! How to put a situation right? There are no ideas in regard to a resolution! Don’t tell me that I’m blowing it up of proportion, because you’re not in my shoes!

     I guess, it was a shortage of petrol, but beforehand you’d assured me that it had to be a surplus!

     Fortunately, I’m near someone’s house. I hope creatures, who live there will help me to tackle this problem. The house itself is a dilapidated building. Perhaps, formerly it suffered from Tartar invasion. It almost fell into decay, but I took notice that host didn’t abandon it. There are paper snowflakes on windows. So cute ^^. To be honest, at first I thought that there were stables instead of a lived-in building, or at least medieval ruins. I won’t judge a book by its cover.

If it were in my power, I would renovate the house and make it ultra-modern. It needs a preservation.

     Peers, in comparison with our brand new buildings, cutting edge technologies and up to date devices this place is like an ancient hovel.

     Let’s have a look inside. Maybe, house interior is in mint condition.

The Internet does not have an access to Happiness

"Autumn is the hardest season. The leaves are falling and they're falling like they're falling in love with the ground"

Andrea Gibson

   Most people feel ecstatic and delighted with a defolation, other feel depressed and frustrated, because the nature slowly dies.

   Mind you, there are some persons, who aren't able neither cheer up nor upset with something. They're always staying at home and are as quite as a mice. 

   Octon wasn't an exception. All his time he spent sitting at the laptop. He lost his temper when mother or sister demanded to leave it up. The laptop was his sense of elation. 

   By watching funny videos he reduced his stress; by listening to calm melodies he became relaxed. Octon also was brilliant at playing computer games. A lot of wins made him as proud as a peacock. By any large, if it's possible to talk about relationships between a computer and a human, these two were in love.

   One day, there was a problem: the Internet was inaccessible. Octon turned appalled! He had a red face and sweaty palms. It seemed like an apocalypse. Octon was hysterical.

'Calm down!' - was begging his a sister.

   Without saying a word Octon went to look out for a free Wi-Fi networks. Virtual life had a great impact on him. 

   Walking through a parc with his laptop he unintentionally bumped into a girl. Her name was Octobrice. She amused herself by collecting leaves and dividing them according to shades. If Octon's laptop had feelings, he would become jealous of him.  It was love at first sight. 

    Later, on their weeding it was an inscription: "Don't look for happiness in the Internet. Go out and it's possible that you'll find it - sitting on the closest bench".

Body language. A way my groupmates speak it

When you are in a live-action movie, you have so many more options to express yourself. You can use your body and your gestures.  When you are doing an animated movie, you really only have your voice.
Jesse Eisenberg

   Every day you observe people's behaviour. It is accompanied by different combinations of movements. What do they mean? Let's make it clear to avoid a misinterpretation.
My group consists of students who are as different as chalk and cheese. They all have individual tempers and display their feelings in many ways. I tried to look out for these ways.
   Yaroslava is a confident girl, who always keeps eye contact.

She's ambitious and this proverb ideally reflects her lifestyle: Practice makes perfect. 
   Hanna is the most contrast personality in our group.

I've noticed that she often pulls her hair when she is impressed by something. One of her bad habits is biting nails while worrying. But her good qualities compensate it. She's never out of sight, out of mind. Live and let live - that's her motto, I suppose.

   Olga is a kind of a girl who always has her head in the clouds.When suddenly someone lowers her down she goes red. It's not necessarily that she's angry. It means that she dissatisfied with coming back to reality.

   Olena's body language is almost silent. It's hard for me to distinguish some particular gestures she often uses. When she's shocked she raises her eyebrow. While Olena is thinking about something she scratches behind the ear.  In the future I will be more observant, because "the more the merrier":)
   Julia is full of beans. While talking she uses excessive hand gestures.  In any case, they only make her "speech" more colourful.

   Regarding to me. As a matter of fact, I use a wide range of gestures, especially hand ones.  But I never notice it. Everything happens subconsciously. When I'm worried I have sweaty palms, during the presence of a person I like, my cheeks go red.
   In any case, it's impossible to express our feelings without gestures. As I was saying, they make our body language more eloquent. Open up and speak your mind! ;)

Everything is OK with me – I’m just an introvert

“Why are you silent? Did anything happen to you? Do you need some support? I can deduce nothing from your behavior…”

Almost every day I hear these questions. I’d be glad to oppose them but the world doesn’t allow. It needs an answer. Sometimes it seems to me that there is no place for introspective personalities in the society: “Only extraverts will survive”.

Life requires to convert all emotions and don’t hide them. If you do so, you’ll badly impress other. Because of it, I feel oppression.

I’m a kind of a human, who composes thoughts and experiences in a head and heart accordingly. I’m incapable to produce it aloud. That’s why the majority negatively evaluates me. Often it makes me feel depressed.

Introverts can’t be pseudo-emotional and force themselves to show an “internal filling”. It’s better for them to be misunderstood than to be fake. Inner monologues are eloquent.

Being an introvert, I don’t have a purpose to disconnect from the whole world, I just want it not to unwrap me.

You may disagree, but introversion nowadays is a kind of a disease.  The world nourishes by active and expressive. It hates weakness and sadness.

Will introverts survive on the Earth? That’s the question…

Vocabulary Sci-Fi

  It's a pity, but humanity still doesn't have a possibility to send e-mail or fax messages to the past or future. Humanity doesn't, but I do:) Imagination has no borders!

  I'm sure that everyone wants to come into contact with people who lived earlier. Even more: it's not only to communicate with somebody, but to shake hands with Bon Jovi, for example, or wave at Michael Jackson etc.  I'm pleased with achievements of our science but it doesn't provide us with such an opportunity.

  Being a phililogist, I'd like to share my experiance in learning English. Maybe, in coming years we'll have an invention that allows us to have a meetings with past generations, but now it doesn't exist. So let's talk business.

   You know that a foreign language opens a window through which we're able to see the whole world. Logically that everyone tries to simplify a learning process. 20-30 years ago it was harder to make something easier. People were uncertain in regard to efective ways of studying. But not now. 

   The Internet is accessible. It allows us to reach our knowledge and to develop speaking, listening and other language skills. Except books and heavy dictionaries there are more pleasant ways of learning. 

   If you want to bring a diversity into the process, open these web-sites:

www.thefreedictionary.com

www.grapwords.com

www.fraze.it 

   Be certain, resources will be helpful. You won't be disappointed:

- create a word-clouds;

- observe different collocations;

- find examples in the field you're interested in;

- use associations;

   And as a result - memorize successfully!

   Do everything properly and soon no one could tell the difference between a native speaker and you ;)

FRAZE.IT:

Thanks to other high-profile rabbis, such as Capers Funnye, the African-American leader of Chicago's Beth Shalom B'Nei Zaken synagogue — and First Lady Michelle Obama's second cousin — mainstream American Jewry appears ready to embrace leaders like Stanton. And with African Americans becoming increasingly drawn to Judaism, in part because of the shrinking perception that they are not welcomed by white Jews, the IJCR's Tobin say the timing could not be better for American Jewry to finally reconsider who and what makes a Jew. "Due to assimilation and intermarriage, the stability of the American Jewish community has never been more vulnerable," she says. "If we are to survive we must become more welcoming to people and not just send them away."

A tale of two dictionaries

   Once upon a time there were two dictionaries.  One was a girl named Oxford and a boy called Longman. Nobody knew their originated.  Oxford was thin and had a medium height so she never heard a strong criticism in regard to her figure.  Longman suffered from overweight and it was his main concern. A poor boy was almost alone and defenceless.  Finding any friends was a considerable difficulty for him.  Longman’s sorrows were indescribable.

   A dusty student’s bookshelf was like a house for them. There always ruled an utter chaos and mess. In such kind of circumstances called “philological apocalypse” it was impossible for them to meet each other. Their lives seemed to be uneventful but the occurrence changed everything.

It happened once in a blue moon, but the student of college of Romance and Germanic languages had a free time. He decided to do out because the mess was a real eyesore for him. All useless things that occupied a space were cleaned from the bookshelf.  And then Oxford and Longman found themselves face to face.  It was love at first definition. They had too much in common, especially 26 letters of the alphabet.

   Time passed. Oxford assured herself that she would never meet anyone better than Longman was. They was standing on the bookshelf long and happily.  They always were together:  in singular and plural, in males and females, in sessions and weekdays until a dictionary called “Frenchman” appeared. He separated them.

   It was severe for Longman.  A poor boy‘s life turned into pointless existence.  Oxford like every woman loved with her ears.  Longman’s reach inner world didn’t satisfy her.  She preferred an emotive “Frenchmen”.

   Not every tale has a happy end.

   Morality: Once in a while be interested in lives of your dictionaries. Maybe, even now they need your support. 

My 1st Vocabulary Class

EXPECTATIONS VS. REALITY

   It's a classic example of all students to create potential pictures of everything they are going to do for the first time. 

   If your thoughts about the lesson are based on words that other mates say, visiting a class will be your main concern. An utter chaos will rule by your head or vice versa you will be ready to deify an istructor.  Remember that all minds are subjective and you don't have to take offense at it. People always give more criticism than approval.

  When I saw our schedule, it was a real eyesore and I almost burst into tears. The reason is that there were too many subjects. Again,these mates said that it would be much easier to study on the 2nd course. Ha-ha. But it's okey, I'm still alive :-)

   In regard to my first vocabulary class. It didn't seem to me as a considerable difficulty, but I realized that I would put a real effort in it because there are too many words and very little time. 

   When the lesson began, the teacher made it clear that all our expectations which relate to an infinite and boring writing of new words would "go to hell" ("3 DAYS GRACE" song). The instructor held us reponsible for making blogs where we would clarify different topics. We reached an agreement of learning process. Fortunately, no one had to settle a dispute belong to hometasks etc. 

   Be hard-working and you will never take the blame for results of your laziness. Never back down, because without an asking there is no understanding. And yours "I will do no such thing" leave behind you. Die down the noise caused by torrential rains of doubts and gale force winds of carelessness. Catch fire with a desire instead ;-)
