A Bite of Spring

Image
  This year must be the most beautiful spring I have experience ever, the little town is blooming, with gentle zephyr. The temperature is not too high but warm enough for a colorful dress. Spring is like the age of youth, short, but memorable, fulling of delightful adjectives.   Today, I will show you three desserts to taste “ spring ”  and try to lock the memory of your own spring.   First, grass jelly with pear nectar. Heating the grass jelly powder with boiled water, one powder needs three times water, then wait or keep it in the refrigerator until it becomes a jelly-like shape. Pear honey can be easily done by mixing honey with flowers of pear. But the flower should be removed the stamen, or directly picked up the petal from the grass, and putting washed petals into the boiled water no longer than 10 seconds.   The flowers of pear three are the most beautiful flowers of the world, like peach blossoms and Sakura (cherry blossom), all of them born in spring and c

Symposium Summary

Annual symposium of hall school of journalism and communication were h e ld this morning at Trojan Center. The major part of it is the presentation that Mr. Craig Pittman gives, which is focusing on how to be the most destructive force on campus.       The topic is really a journalist-style, which is “ little paper, big headline ”  in his words. Thanks to the “ Destructive ” , which is interesting, and attracts people ’ s attention is  a  very short way.   Mr. Pittman talks a little bit about  himself, and his books and express the appreciat ion  that time that Troy gives him. He believes Troy is the school that help him into the person he wants to be. And he gave us some outstanding views which from his own experience at The Trop.   Here are some point s  that I learned from the lecture.   First, as hard news, especially those relates to the political news, we should pay attention to  five things. First of all,   using the words correctly, not only with the most

How to Start Exercising from Zero

    A healthy life is the basic that you can live normally and the key to keep ing  you happy. There are two major parts that you can easily start with, which are exercise  and food.   What Americans  impressed me most is that most of them treat sports as their daily life. Gym of the university is crowded and there are  lots of people still plays tennis basketball even it ’ s raining .   I am not very fond of exercising , so this post is for those people who don ’ t like exercising but still wants to start their gym life.   The moment you want to start exercising is the moment that you eager loneliness. The very first reason that I start running that I found this is my own time. Yes, nobody will bother me at that time. I do appreciate those laughs and fun time with friends but everyone needs a time that they can stay alone with themselves.   Exercising totally trap us into our own world, which kills two birds with one stone. During this time, you can plan your fu

Slow Down Yourself before Deadline

Image
Sometimes I will particularly be agitated especially there is  too much homework to do.  In past , I would force myself into the zone whether I am at  the right moment or not. So I can finish all of the stuff as soon as possible, and turned all of them in with an exhausted status. However, not only the score can ’ t be well in this situation, but also the anxiety will stay for awhile.   So, how to light up yourself, to be prepared for the mess that in front of you? The first thing you should do is slowing down the time. Yes, the deadline is coming up, and everything just starts over, the most significant thing is to adjust the feeling, to smooth the anxiety.   It ’  might sound crazy, but cleaning is the easiest way to warm up. Cleaning up the desk is easy and save time, can bring you to the light life in very short time. Just like classifying the textbooks and papers or dropping all the trash on the desk, like some useful papers or cards.       Smoothing the quilt or

Keep Producing

    Why self-output important? For example, when we are listening to music, the process that we receive   the message, it can relieve our anxiety. But if we sing it out loud, it can release our anxiety.   We process all kinds of message every day, and most time, it is a process of acceptance. Knowledge from professors, stories from books and mass information from different media, those are very daily things. However, the best way to learn things is actually a way to self-output, such as writing a paper or doing assignments also the way to make ourselves produce. But doing homework is a low - level way to produce . It ’ s passive and unwilling to most students.   Here are some ways to help you output easily and actively.   The f irst thing we can do is cooking. CulinaryOne shows us cooking bring us much more benefits .To those people who never step into the kitchen, we can start with the easiest recipe s, or just start with a f ruit bowl.   Because the most diffi

To be Prepared about Everything

  Time management  is the key  to delight our life , get prepared in advance is the first step to start.   Running into the class until  the class begins , scrambling textbooks into the bag to catch the school bus, or start a writing paper when the deadline is coming. That ’ s basically happened every   day in my freshman year.   High school life is like to be set up in advance, what we should do is follow the stable schedule. College life, a total ly  different schedule  with high school, gives us a more independent and governable  time to make us control ourselves ’  time freely, but on the contrary , why I ’ m always in hurry, and it seems like the time is shorter than before.   Fact from ReliablePlanet shows that most college students struggle with organizational skill . College is a transition to help to chang e  us from a student into a real value-creating citizen. Just like me, most freshman of college still full of the confusion, and can ’ t imagine the picture t

Information about Table Manners

  The c ircle is the embodiment of union, which is the most important symbol in Chinese culture. So the round table is used for people gathering for dinner.   Nowadays, with the progress of the globalization, many western-style foods  like steak, lasagna and burgers or sushi, ramen are popular in big cit ies  in China. People from inland provinces who work in costal big cit ies  are getting too busy to have a serious dinner with friends or family.   In most frequent situations, if there are five people or more, the situation that round table will be served nearly 100%, especially at  dinner.   First, I believe it is because the eating habit is different. In western countries, they will order individual and different meals. Maybe for health reasons, it will be better if people get far away from other ’ s saliva.   Second, a traditional dinner should serve hot dishes, cold dishes, soups, including fish, chicken (or duck or goose), pork (not in Muslim family), and beef.
