My Happy Experience in NAIT & Happy New Year!

As you know, with Vivienne's kindly help, I contacted with the dean of the Registrar's Office. Don, the dean of the registrar's office, helped me to fix all the problems and everything is OK now.

So, now my weird experiences have gone and the last one made me very happy.

Thank Vivienne, Don, and the staff of the Registrar's Office.

Happy New Year!

Merry Christmas & Happy New Year !

Thank you! Guys! Thanks for your words! Thanks for your gift!

Miss you guys

During school, we all HAVE TO write a blog.
I don't know if I wrote 15 comments and 5 posted or whatever.
Now I check some blogs and write comments and post this.
I like to do without controlling by someone, and do whenever I want
: this is called intrinsic motivation,eh??!
I think this is really stupid though, but I always do like this.

Anyway, how's going?
Happy Friday?!

It doesn't really matter because school is OVER!!!


I look back to the past when my class starts on May 2008.
I was so excited to see people who may be friends and could study without paying by myself.

I was like
" Oh my god! This class is really international!!"
" Samson looks so scary!"
" Aziz looks like one of my friend from chili."
" Two girls seem like my age..... WHAT! Do they have a baby!"
" Wow, David speaks really fast..."

I was like a kid who just enter elementary school or something like that.


I hate to stay at home without doing nothing.
I think that is my nature to being Japanese.lol

Even though some people say " YAY, school is over!!"

I would say I miss to go school to see my classmates. Everyone is awesome!
Especially, Hanife is like my family for me.
Samsom encouraged me a lot! Thank you!

I found out many people in the class have not much friends in here.
So do I. So, I think the feeling is mutual eh?

I am going back school from May to take up-grading.
All I have to take is Math, Chemi and Bio.
Till May, I probably work at Starbucks on Jasper ave 109st as a part time job, study and write a beautiful resume, study TOEFL and hopefully either work or volunteer at veterinarian clinic.

Well, I hope we will see soon, and have a nice vacation for all of you!!

Betrayed love and friendship

This story occurred in Belgium. Simon and Henry were two inseparable frinds. When they came to Belgium from Congo, the two frinds didn't take it easy because they were unemployed for many years. Finally, Henry got a job. About six months later, he helped Simon to be hired in the same compagny. The first day Simon started to work, he fell in love at the first sight with Pauline, the boss' daughter. She felt the same feeling. Pauline was young, beautiful, and rich. The following year, both Simon and Pauline got married. Simon' s life was transformed from poverty into wealth. Henryand Simon were still great friends. After two years of marriage, Simon decided to go back to Congo, alone, to visit his parents. Pauline gave him permission to travel. In Congo, Simon fell in love with a young woman. He told the lies that he was single, so he got married with her. Simon promised the bride that, as soon as he went back to Europe, he would do immigration papers so that she would come to Belgium and live together. Thrusting her husband, the just married woman was very happy at the thoughts that she was going to follow her lover in Belgium in about one year. When Simon got back to Europe, he hid the truth to Pauline. However, he revealed allthe adventure to Henry his best friend. In addition, Simon gave to Henry the DVD containing the wedding report. They sweared each other not to expose the truth to anybody. Unfortunately, by jealousy, Henry called Pauline and watched the DVD together. The secret was revealed in the Simon' s back. Feeling betrayed, Pauline decided to punish Simon. Just one week later, Simon was found dead, stabbed by a criminal engaged by Pauline. When the married woman in Congo got the bad news, she killed herself; She was already pregnant from Simon. What a story. Henry betrayed Simon who betrayed Pauline and the Congolese woman. This is a true story. It's really hard to understand what people want.

Attributing Chinese names to non-Chinese speakers

There are two quite different traditions in attributing Chinese names to non-Chinese speakers.

In mainland China, our convention is to employ the most literal phonetic translation available. For example, George Washington's name would be translated to Qiaozhi Huashengdun. Such names, however, may or may not bear any meaning in Chinese and are generally easily identifiable as direct translations from a foreign language.

The tradition in Hong Kong, on the other hand, is to seek an actual Chinese name that approximates the foreign tongue and has a semantic meaning. These names are richer and more easily remembered, but may sound so different as to be unrecognizable from their foreign roots.

The end justifies the means

The following story took place in Montreal in 2003. A young woman was walking alone on the street when she saw a blind man hardly trying to find his way. She contacted the handicapped man, hoping to help him. The man explained to the woman that he was going to an office where he had an important appointment. At that moment it was 12:20, and he added that he was supposed to show up at 12:30. Then, the blind man politely asked the young woman to precede him, bring a letter to the office, and tell the boss that he would be a little late. She accepted to help him. Just before the nice woman attained the office, she decided to get back to the man because she forgot to ask his name. She didn't believe her eyes when she saw the so called blind man talking to people and acting as if he wasn't handicapped. In fact, the man was a valid person. Intrigued, the woman read the letter. She read this:"She/he is the last one I send you today. Meet you to get my commission in cash." She was affraid and called the police. The police entered the lobby where they discovered a macabre scene. The local was filled of blood, cutters, saws, sharpened knives and many other electronic divices. In the fridges the police found human body parts. The woman was very lucky. She escaped from death. She encountered a criminal organization that killed people in order to sell vital body parts. It was a lucrative and easy business. The motto was: make much money by any means. "The end justifies the means."Fortunately, the members of that criminal organization were arrested and put in jail.

Iran's history in a sight.

I was doing something that a friend sent me an email regarding to Iran's history.
As I know that many of us knowing the Middle East as a terrifying region, also I heard sometimes some people think that nothing is existing there, I decided to put the email's link here. These are the brief sequences of the Iran's history( Middle East).
Moreover, on the fourth part you could see why Iranians are muslim.
On the part six you would see why Iran is still alive across all of though and brutal invasions.

Many of my friends tell me that I am too patriot, so I am sorry if I am too much..........

---

Part one: 6800 B.C to 650 B.C

---

Part two: 650 B.C 330 B.C

---

Part three: 330 B.C 600 A.D

Part four: 600 A.D - 900 A.D
Part five: 900 A.D- 1300 A.D
Part Six: 1300 A.D - 1600 A.D
Part seven:1600 A.D-1900 A.D

However todays Iran is not very well, but I love that valuable land.

It was a pleasure to have time with you at NAIT ESL

When I looked back the previous eight months at NAIT ESL, it was a short and pleasant time.
I usually felt comfortable at class because most students have the same situation as me.
I met many good friends and teachers including Vivienne.
Sometimes, I had hard time doing homework which made me irritate and obsess,
but when I finished the homework, I satisfied with my achievement.
I think these are from all your helps.
I hope everyone will be happy and lucky.
And I hope you have great christmas and happy new year.

Vivienne

Whatever my marks are, Vivienne thank you. Because of all of your helps during this semester.
Indeed, many native speakers don't know these useful rules that you tought us.
Indeed, you are a very fine person.
Indeed, your passionate is to teach English.
Indeed, you did a great job.
Thanks.
I got A- in writing section this time, so my marks are: A- A- A- and B+ in reading.
Thank you.

Tips for Writing in ESL Assessment

I just checked the result of my ESL assessment I attended on last Saturday. With anxiety, I saw an "A" appeared there as my score in writing. This time I got an A instead of a C that I got only one month ago. The difference between A and C doesn't mean that my writing skill and my grammar had improved a lot in the last month, absolutely not. Here are some tips which are very useful for those who haven't passed in writing. Believe me, they are extremely effective.
1. Control your time
To think about the quetion quickly and try to finish your writing quickly. It is very key to leave enough time to check your grammar, spelling and punctuation afterwards and make sure you can modify the mistakes as much as you can.
2. Keep your writing KISS
KISS means keep it simple and stupid. Remeber, the examiner only wants simple structure, simple ideas (2 main ideas) simple explanation, and simple examples. Don't make your writing too fancy. It is really not necessary to show your true literature and intelligence level in this assessment.
3. Make yourself familiar with TOEFL topics
To prepare for the assessment, you'd better to have a look at the TOEFL writing topics as mush as you can, and think about 2 main ideas for each topics. It will be very helpful to shorten your thinking time. From my experience, almost all the assessment topics are origined from TOEFL topic pool.
4. Read the Instroction Carefully
For the graph writing, if the instruction is asking you to give out the reasons, you should not describe the chart too much.
5. Write in a logical way
It's always not a good idea to make your writing a mass, which will definietly bring a headache to your examiner when reading what you wrote. So you can not expect for a high score because of it.

it gradually will caused a greater victory; however, a different one.

Indeed the truth is been never shown. The truth is been always hidden for those people who want to know it, try for it, and have a deep lust for it. Those people should look for it, and while they learnt many pre-requests they see the hidden anomalies (the truth). In matter of fact the result of suffering and learning the pre-requests caused the new target, and former target revolved to sum of all those experience.

This is like a fable which was an old man who bouquet his farm for the son, and told the son that “I buried a great treasure in the land”. The son started to look for the treasure while ploughs the land in order to find it. After all, he could not find any treasure, but his treasure, actually, was father’s land. The lazy son felt it when the land was ready for farming. Initially, no signs of the land’s value were sparkling.

There are some other phrases that can be told such as: Love and lover is the same. Or the solution and the puzzle are involved in each other, or whatever causes ignorance it has causes of knowledge. And so on….

Briefly, do not give up , and be initiative, because the way that you are in, will show you many hidden facts that you had never had any idea about them, and it gradually will caused a greater victory; however, a different one.

Chocolate Chip Cookies (A Joke)

An elderly man was at home, dying in bed. He smelled the aroma of his favourite chocolate chip cookies baking. He wanted one last cookie before he died. He fell out of bed, crawled to the landing, rolled down the stairs, and crawled into the kitchen where his wife was baking cookies. With waning strength, he crawled to the table and was just barely able to lift his withered arm to the cookie sheet. As he grasped a warm, moist chocolate chip cookie, his favourite kind, his wife suddenly whacked his hand with a spatula.
"Why?" he whispered, "Why did you do that?"
" They are for the funeral." she replied.

My Weird NAIT Experience 4

I registered the Computer System Program (CST) about in February. But I always warried about my English skill, so I didn't take any aessesment test until July when I took my first assessment test. But I failed listening in my fist assessment test.

After I failed listening in my fist assessment test. I emailed the registrar who was responsible for register of CST that I wanted to transfer my application from September CST to January, 2009 CST. In the end, I got a letter from NAIT that said that I was accepted by September CST. I was very suprised that I was accepted by CST without success in assessment test.

After September semester started, a staff called me. I told her I wanted to transfer my application to CST of January, 2009. She did it for me.

Tiger or Woman?

Mata was a 23-year-old princess living with her father the king and mother the queen in a prosperous kingdom. Mata fell in love with Pody, the most handsome young man in the country.They were engaged for marriage. One day, Mata surprised her lover kissing another young woman. Actually, Pody secretely loved a second girl. Betrayed and disappointed, Mata told her father the story.Both Pody and the girl were arrested and put in jail. The king orded to build a two-door sound-proof house. Then, he explained to her daughter (Mata) that he was going to let Pody choose his destiny. The king recommanded to a wild tiger in one house . The girl was taken from jail and put in another house . The next day, Pody would be taken from prison and put in front of those two houses. He would have to randomly choose which door to open. If Pody opened the house containing the tiger, he would be eaten by it. If, in contrast, he opened the house inside which was the girl, he would marry her. Mata knew which house was put the tiger. At night, she secretely visited Pody in jail and explained to him wath was going on. She advised him that the next day, she would sign him and show what door to open. The D-Day, Pody was put in front of the two houses, alone, ready to face his destiny. Finally, he decided to open the door A. At this instant, he remembered what Mata told him the day before. He looked at her. The princess secretely signed him to open the other door. Pody obeyed and did so. The story ends here. It does not have any answer. It ends by the question: which door do you think Mata showed to Pody? Tiger or Woman?

Microsofe Bugs, these are amazing try it out, these are fun:

An Indian discovered that nobody can create a FOLDER anywhere on the computer which can be named as "CON". This is something pretty cool...and unbelievable. .. At Microsoft the whole Team, couldn't answer why this happened!
TRY IT NOW ,IT WILL NOT CREATE " CON " FOLDER

Next one

Open Microsoft office word and Write
=rand (200, 99)
then press enter.


Some mathematics facts; these are fun:
take a look:

1 x 8 + 1 = 9
12 x 8 + 2 = 98
123 x 8 + 3 = 987
1234 x 8 + 4 = 9876
12345 x 8 + 5 = 98765
123456 x 8 + 6 = 987654
1234567 x 8 + 7 = 9876543
12345678 x 8 + 8 = 98765432
123456789 x 8 + 9 = 987654321
==============================
1 x 1 = 1
11 x 11 = 121
111 x 111 = 12321
1111 x 1111 = 1234321
11111 x 11111 = 123454321
111111 x 111111 = 12345654321
1111111 x 1111111 = 1234567654321
===================================
9 x 9 + 7 = 88
98 x 9 + 6 = 888
987 x 9 + 5 = 8888
9876 x 9 + 4 = 88888
98765 x 9 + 3 = 888888
987654 x 9 + 2 = 8888888
9876543 x 9 + 1 = 88888888
98765432 x 9 + 0 = 888888888
====================================

My Weird NAIT Experience 3

Last week, I got an email from the office of registrar. The staff member notified me that I need to submit my transcripts of my high school marks to complete my application to the full-time program.

Oh, my goodness! I have finished the transcripts in April, 2008! And they asked them again! So I emailed them to explain that I had finished the transcripts, and a recruiter did them for me and gave them to the office of registrar in April. Because I had been once accepted by the full-time program of Computer System Technology for this September, which means my transcripts was OK at that time.

The next day, I called the office of regsitrar and I got a piece of news that I had been accepted.

Next, I will talk about the last wierd exprience that I was accepted by the full-time program of Computer System Technology without any assessment test!

Where do we go from here?

I can't believe this semester is almost done! I have an invitation for you all. Please join this blog: http://naitalumni.blogspot.com/

You can update occasionally to give us news, so that we can keep in touch. From next semester, the new GW531 will be using this blog space. Also, if you are on Facebook, see if you can find me... I will miss you!

I will study in ETIP program

Dear classmates:
I was accepted by ETIP (Engineering Technologist Integrated Program) several days ago. Next, I will attend it on Jan.12th. It means that I will suffer a lot because it is said the program was very difficult. I cherish the time of ESL class. We did pratise more English and relax.
How about your futher education? I hope all of you good lucky!

This is the exercise we did yesterday about the 5,7,5 sentence.

Red roses have thorns,

if you touched them it can hurt.

Still, roses mean love.

Do not forget to give a red rose to those persons that you care about. Remember that flowers are given by the nature, they does not cost much, and means a lot.

Good morning

Today, I can do a lot of things. You know why?
YES! I don't work today.
Usually I work 4 times a week from right after school to 9:00pm.
I come back home around 9:40pm.
I like to work at my work place, but not everyday:(
In this month, I work really hard, even during final exam and on Christmas.
Because I am not going to get Grant from next month.
Besides, I am going to work full time from Jan - May to earn money for living.
It's gonna be hard because I need to pass TOEFL and volunteer at Vet clinic as well.
However, I am so excited to take up-grading from May.

HAIKU

I love my doggies
We are in different countries
But we are still together

I am really lucky

I bought a sofa bed at Brick on Sun. I was told to pick it up at Brick's warehouse today, and they are not responsible for delivery; if I ask the Brick to ship it to my house, I have to pay $70 , and the sofa bed just cost $480; furthermore, my house is close to the warehouse I don't want to spend more money. I decided to have a try with my car; I thought if possible, it could be taken apart two parts and separately driven twice. When I said to the receptionist I was not sure I could carry by my car, she lets me take seat. After around 10 minutes, she told me that there was only one the sofa bed damaged in the warehouse, so they will ship new one to my house in a couple days, no charge. She said, 'sorry' I answered cheerfully 'perfect'. I am lucky I don't have to think about how to carry it to my house. Cheer

What is this practise called?

I am pregnant now.
My due date is in six weeks.
I am expecting ...

Winters, winters and winter.

Winters is the wonderfull and terrible time when it comes freezing rain, snowing and storming weather. Each month of the winter years people go sick whether cold or flu also can be experince hardship when they are facing shortage food or supplies, for example unfornatune ones' has to suffere a lots. So If you can help any ones who needs hand it is time to do so.

My Weird NAIT Experience 2

Before I applied to drop the future assessment test on Nov 26, all of my 3 tests' marks were OK. After that, I check them on the computer and found 2 tests that I had took were canceled. So I called the Office of Registrar, one lady said staff would fix them in 2 days. But on Nov 28, they did not fix them. So I went to the office,and after one receptionist listened my explaination, she said that she could not register the test on Nov 29 because it had been full. I knew she misunderstood me, and I tried to explian that I did not want to take assessment test any more because I had passed all the sections of the test, and I only want to get my canceled test results. But the lady was not patient to hear my explaination, and threw my studen ID to the next receptionist and let her to deal with it. I had to turn to the next receptionist and explained my situation again. The new receptionist was patient and nice, and fortunately, she understood me and she found the mistake that they had made. She left her seat and went inside office maybe for other help. Finally, she said to me the mistake had been fixed. I left the office of registrar and went to the library to check the result on computer, but I found that one test was fixed and the another one still was in the status of cancellation. I had to went back to office again, and met the fist lady again. I explained the problem, but she still was not patient and asked the second lady to see me. I said the fact, and she said it was Ok and I did not warry about it, if I still found it was wrong, I should went back the office on Mondy, Dec 1. I am a computer specialist, and I know the data will be shown immediately after modifing. So, to wait to Monday was a white lie. But I had no options, and I had to wait.

As my thought, the another test is still in the status of cacellation up to day. This test will not influence my application of the full-time program because I did not pass the listening part in this test (I passed three parts except listening in the first test, and I passed the listening section only in the third test that has been recovered). Only regret is that I got 90% in the reading of that test, which is my highest score in all the sections of all my assessment tests.

Should I ask office of registrar to restore the test for me?

I want to bring peace for free.!.

Hello, Helooooo hellooo, I was thinking that I shouldn't write too much, nither should I write too far.
Indeed, whenever a person say something either more than then a topic or less, the clients would think that he is stupid. Or too much.

I was thinking about this statement "some people do their activities because of their culture!" I was thinking if a person says to another person that "your culture is different, so it is you nature to do these thing" the second person would answer the first one that it is your culture which is different not mine.This is right. Many people might say "because of their culture they do that....", or you might heard that " On their culture ...." " I know your culture...." " I know in your culture....", no doubt, everyone does becuase of her/his culture, but the point is this, the accent of the critique is likely means my culture is better and your culture is nothing.

The relativity and the law of relativity ruled here as well, the culture that a person thinks is a weird one, is weired for the study case as well. Also, many aspect of those wiered culture are come from thousands years experience of civilization, Not, just 200 years or 800 years.

By the way, the history has shown the malignant and the most honest. However, the great former empire such as China or Egypt or Persia or Greek or even Ottomans are not in the power, but their history is full of ethic and moral. So, for the moment the way is what it is.

The world is rolling in the hand of media, which are mainly make money from roamers. And the simple people simply think that something that media said is bad or is good. I was seeing a movie clip, many people even don't know where Iraq is, where Afghanistan is.

Did you know that the Middle East is in the Asia, and 20 years ago Asia was just Asia not the terrifing Middle EAST and Asia( Commonly China and Japan!!!).Did you know that Afghanistan is about 15000 km far from the United State; And from this distance peacemakers(oha) are bringing a fair and peaceful life for the Afghans or want to save the world! FOR FREE!!! is it possible?! If you walk you should pay, now some countries are make a peaceful country with billions of dollar , for FREE?! They did not make a war then after 20 or 30 years come again for peace!

Which country initially had supported Alqaede? Which country made Saddam, support him, Which country set the new barier of Joradan, Syria, Lobnan, and Iraq. Why many Affrican countries with their own great culture and language speak French, their currency is Frank!....

Yeah , the WISE countries don't produce and sell any weapon, any bomb, any bad ideology, they are the best, they are meaning of civilized thoughts and idea ...

I SHOULD NT TALK. Soryy,,,,

First we should wish...

Tomorrow,some of our classmates will take assessment exam. Please let us to pray them could pass it.

I have an ABC question ?

Excuse me? Human being have the abilities to think something. Do you know cat can think?

Molana Jalaledine Balkhi

I was reading some articles about Molana Jalaleddin( One of the most universal spiritual person ), I saw a question that someone asked about what are thoese nine couplet that had been written on the tomb of Movalan. It made me curious about what are those, and what would be for a most spiritual person who I have ever known. I found them, having read them saw so markable couplets that are barely translated in English and are these:

كدام‌دانه‌فرورفت درزمين‌كه نرست چرا بدنه انسانيت اين گمان باشد

Every seed which had barried into the soil grew again

Body of human could be the same....


and also another lovely couplet are these:

زخاك من اگر گندم بر آيد از آن گر نان پزي مستي خزايد

If you bake a bread out of wheat that grown from my tomb's soil it will be caused drunkenness.

خمير و نانوا ديوانه گردد تنورش بيت مستانه سرايد

The bread and the paste will get mad and the oven start to sing drunkly.

اگر بر گور من آيي زيارت ترا خر پشته‌ام رقصان نمايد

If you come to see my grave, my tomb will tickle you to dance

and after few couplet first last one is this:

منم مستي و اصل‌من‌مي‌عشق بگو از مي بجز مستي چه آيد

I am drunkenness and my origin rooted in wine( spiritual wine, love's wine, love, love liquer)

, so you tell me , what else does the wine (Jalaleddin, Poet), except being drunk?

I just got lost in the storm

It was snowing today, and in St. Alberta, it fell heavier than Edmonton. I caught exactly the heavy snow in St. Alberta at 5pm it was getting dark. This was first time to there to me, and I have to look at the sign where there was when I drove in a terrible snowy weather. the front window was blurry and it was hard to see clear until going into Edmonton. At that time, I got lost in there around fire fighting building, then, I went into the building and was told detail of which road to Edmonton, after that I went home successfully.

Political News!

Have you read this hot news? I find that politics in Canada is quite interesting!

GG agrees to suspend Parliament until January
(retrieved from CBCNews on Dec.4, 2008)

Gov. Gen. Michaëlle Jean has granted a request from Stephen Harper to suspend Parliament until late next month, a move that avoids a confidence vote set for Monday that could have toppled his minority government

Don't cry, all will come.

Don't cry, all happies will come.

My Weird NAIT Experience 1

Finally, I passed all setions of the ESL Assessment test on Nov 15, 2008 with the success in Listening part. I got the result on the morning of Saturday, Nov 22. As you know, I wanted to finish the assessment test before I leave ESL, and I applied another assessment test on Nov 29 in case that I would fail the test on Nov 15. So I applied to drop the test on Nov 29 in the Registrar's Office on Nov 26. At last, 2 weird things happened in that afternoon.

1, I didn't get any refund of dropping the future test. After I consulted the staff in the Registrar's Office, I knew the NAIT's policy about dropping a course or test. The policy is that a full refund less administrative fee is only available for withdrawal 3 or more days prior to course commencement, and the administrative fee for dropping or transfering a course is $50. In my case, my last day to get the refund was Nov 25, but I certainly thought the last day was Nov 26. So, I lost all the test fee of $120.

2, The Staff in the Registrar's Office dropped 2 assessment tests that I had token! I couldn't find the 2 tests' grades in the NAIT system on the Internet. They made a mistake. I was wondering it would delay my application for the full-time program in NAIT.

Next, I will talk about the weird things that happened between me and the Registrar' Office.

People & Portrait Photography Quick Tips

From: Photography Field Guide: People & Portraits

By: Robert CaputoAugust 2007

Keep these tips from photographer Robert Caputo in mind as you're taking photos of people.

Photograph by Sisse Brimberg

THIS ARTICLE IS FROM
Photography Field Guide: People and Portraits

·Work your way into a situation. If you see something interesting, don't be satisfied with just a wide shot. Think about the essence of what you are photographing and work closer and closer until you have isolated and captured it. Don't be shy. People are usually happy to show you what they do well.
·If you use objects other than your main subject in the foreground, be careful of placement. You don't want to obscure or detract from your subject.
·Every time you hold your camera to your eye, look for leading lines, foreground elements, frames—anything you can use to lend dynamism to your image. Photographs are two dimensional but it helps if they look and feel three dimensional.
·If you don't have a tripod and want to shoot with a long lens and slow shutter speed, use your camera bag to cradle the camera. If you're using a really slow speed, use a self-timer to avoid shake.
·Don't just stand there—sit, squat, lie down. The angle from which you make a photograph can make a dramatic difference.
·Create a catch-light in the subject's eyes with a small reflector, such as a dulled mirror or the silver side of a CD, to add a bit of glimmer.
·When using an electronic flash indoors, move your subject away from walls to prevent harsh shadows.
·A piece of very light orange gel over the face of your electronic flash can warm up the light and give it a more pleasing cast.
·Be patient. Street scenes change by the millisecond. Find a spot you like, get comfortable, and wait, watching all the time for the elements to fall together.
·When photographing people interacting with each other or with pets, observe their behavior and think about what they might do to express the essence of the relationship.
·While looking through your telephoto lens, scan around the scene looking for patterns.
·Portraits of people from other cultures have to do double duty—they have to be honest about the exotic nature of the people while conveying our common humanity.
·If you are traveling in a foreign land, learn at least a few phrases of the local language. Your reception and ability to make photographs—and your whole experience—will be enhanced.
·Practice in your neighborhood. Go out into the street and make frozen, blurred, and panned images of passing cars.
·When making environmental portraits, take the time to find out what your subjects really care about and have them show it to you.
·When you first arrive at a new location, make note of any features that strike you. Try to find ways to incorporate them into your composition.
·Be careful if you are using a wide-angle lens to photograph a group. The people at the edges may get distorted.
·If kids want to look through the camera, let them. They will be more relaxed and cooperative. Just watch out for dirty fingers on the lens.
·Anticipate kids' behavior. If they are playing tag, set up near the base, compose your image, and wait for them to come running in.
·To avoid being too anatomical when photographing the human form, try using soft focus or a little blur.
·When you are in people's homes or workplaces, carry as little gear as possible. You want to minimize the disturbance your presence causes.

The popular topic!

I found that there is a interesting thing, we have a popular topic in our classroom. All of you guys are interested in assessment test, and you talk a lot and a lot. That make me know much about it, even though I did not take any assessment test. It is a good way to learn something you never know and practice my listening skills.

It is not too long. Sorry for boring post!

Motivation
Motivation is a main cause of drive mechanism in creatures’ behaviour. That is to say, it is the reason of any changes on the creatures’ activities. However motivation is a very broad topic to discuss, it has a simple general definition which is an incentive that led to change or movement in order to achieve the goals. Although the definition was simple, to define the goals is a controversial aspect of motivation’s debates. Motivation is compounded of many external and internal derivations that each of them is playing a role as an incentive in creatures’ activities. The inference of the motivation would be various in different ideology and some ideology might believe that motivation is exist on the all motives and movements throughout the universe included objects and creatures. This article will be discussed just about human motivation, not objects or other creatures.
In spite of motivation’s theories are varied among the psychologists and none of the theories has been completely accepted, the main trend of the theory is almost uniformed. Motivation mainly divided into two major fields: intrinsic and extrinsic, each filed may have a same influence on human behaviours, which is change in order to settle their anxiety down. Intrinsic motivations are usually involved all inner stimulations such as desire, ambition, interest, impulse, spur. Extrinsic motivations are outer incentives such as incitement, provocation, urge, inducement, push. Therefore, it is possible to say that all exterior reasons which caused interior motivations can be classified as extrinsic; on the other hand, the result of them classified in the intrinsic motivation. With an example the discussion would be much clear: a higher salary for a job seeker would be an extrinsic motive, meanwhile the interest to reach a higher paid job causes an intrinsic motive.
Abraham H. Maslow (1908- 70), as a known psychologist, was theorized motivation in a pyramid with six levels. He believed that these six levels would define reasons of all human behaviours. The Maslow’s theory of six major incentives would be divided to first: Psychological; second: security and safety; third: love and feelings of belonging; fourth: competence, prestige, and esteem; fifth: self-fulfilment; and last: curiosity and need to understand.
1. Psychological: According to Maslow the first and the most important motivations are psychological incentives.
2. Security and safety: Security is the second important motivation in the human activities. Namely, after psychological incentives subsided, security and need to be safe is vividly indicated.
3. Love and feelings of belonging: In Maslow’s theory love and the feeling of belonging is the third importance of human motivations. On the other word, a calm mind person in a safe circumstance would be able to notice the love and feeling of belonging, thus by Maslow’s theory.
4. Competence, prestige, and esteem: As it has been appeared, the trend of the motivations is from expressive to impassive incentives. To be precise, after the hunger of all inner requests settled human being initiates improving the former ways and create a easier ways to live.
5. Self-fulfilment: Human during improvements of the old ways would have noticed the self-fulfilment, and self-improvements that led to effort for more improvements and create a new ways, meantime, art is emerging. Art is in about the highest rank of civilization. Art is visualized when human has provided all its needs and would be able to react to the necessity of beauty.
6. Curiosity and need to understand: as the last incentive for motivations, the deep-rooted feels of understanding is appeared when human can think about the future. Need to understand is more than creation. Usually, invention is happened by necessities or accidents, but when human has a hunger to know more there should not have necessity irritated them. Following the incentives of curiosity and knowing more happened when human, by choice, responded to incentives that are not really exist, though, potentially exist.

Factors which effect your ESL test

It was not so difficult, but it depends on how lucky you are. If the topic on writing is familiar to you, you can write with no difficulty, but if it is unknown to you, then it could be a big problem.

There was a problem on last parts of the listening test. The voice could be barely heard like an old men who was almost going to die was speaking.

Other parts were OK ! Whether you are good or bad in English, I can only say to you GOOD LUCK!

I don't have any more energy to concentrate on my studying English. I wander why all languages are not the same? Learning a language is a really time and energy consuming.

Let's Smile:)

Where Was Santa Claus Born?

Before I forget, here is the some info about Santa Claus..
And, please wish me luck for the test:)


The American image of Santa Claus was further elaborated by illustrator Thomas Nast, who depicted a rotund Santa for Christmas issues of Harper's magazine from the 1860s to the 1880s. Nast added such details as Santa's workshop at the North Pole and Santa's list of the good and bad children of the world. A human-sized version of Santa Claus, rather than the elf of Moore's poem, was depicted in a series of illustrations for Coca-Cola advertisements introduced in 1931. In modern versions of the Santa Claus legend, only his toy-shop workers are elves. Rudolph, the ninth reindeer, with a red and shiny nose, was invented in 1939 by an advertising writer for the Montgomery Ward Company.

In looking for the historical roots of Santa Claus, one must go very deep in the past. One discovers that Santa Claus as we know him is a combination of many different legends and mythical creatures.

The basis for the Christian-era Santa Claus is Bishop Nicholas of Smyrna (Izmir), in what is now Turkey. Nicholas lived in the 4th century A.D. He was very rich, generous, and loving toward children. Often he gave joy to poor children by throwing gifts in through their windows.

The Orthodox Church later raised St. Nicholas, miracle worker, to a position of great esteem. It was in his honor that Russia's oldest church, for example, was built. For its part, the Roman Catholic Church honored Nicholas as one who helped children and the poor. St. Nicholas became the patron saint of children and seafarers. His name day is December 6th.

In the Protestant areas of central and northern Germany, St. Nicholas later became known as der Weinachtsmann. In England he came to be called Father Christmas. St. Nicholas made his way to the United States with Dutch immigrants, and began to be referred to as Santa Claus.

My hometown is Harbin, and it is said sister city with Edmonton because there is so much similar with Edmonton such as weather, geographic latitude. Especially Harbin is famous for snow and ice sculpture. Ice and snow scene really looks splendid, and made by manual work, including artists. Ice and Snow festival is held in Harbin every winter; however, unfortunately, it will be meltd away before March. Large of numbers of tourists from all over the world are attracted to visit the city in winter. it is worthy for travel there.

First snow

I love the first day of snow. I love it even more when I get to stay home, eat good food, and look at the pretty snow from a nice warm house. mmmmmm

I'm sure that I won't love the snow in January. I'm fairly sure I will hate the snow in February, and I'll probably loathe it if it is still around in March and April. However, right now it is still new and soft and fluffy and pretty. Better still, it is supposed to be 7 degrees C tomorrow, so all the snow is likely to melt away.

I might be the absolute definition of a fair-weather friend.

Funny Story

Beer guy
One certain night a guy had been out on a big drunk before he went to a university, and he couldn’t get home until really late and had an early class the next day - a lab to be precise. He managed to drag himself out of bed and made it to class. The lab they were in that day had wooden seats and were very uncomfortable. So halfway through the lab he drifted off to sleep. All of a sudden he awoke to the farting sound of some classmate in the class. He looked around and started laughing along with everybody else. Then he realized everybody was looking at him and laughing. He was the one that fart while he was asleep and he woke himself up.

What a country!

I cannot believe what is happen to me yesterday at dentist.
I do know I need two root canals which costs me $1400.
However, the doctor gave me a deal that pull out the tooth or pay!
I was like what the heck.....
I will do anything what I do, such as ask a second pinion at the other clinic.
I just worried if I cannot find any solvents what I should do:(
First, I have no time to go back to Japan.
Second, I really do not want to ask family or anything like that.
I wonder how people can live in this country!

The eternel torpic: ESL Assess Exams

Recently. I have done many exams at Nait. In addition to doing midterm exams, I have done ESL assessment tests and upgrading placement exams( reading, essay, and maths). I got the results. ESL Reading is one of my strenghts. Iwas sure that I did well. I was waiting for high marks, yet I obtained C-(55-59). What a surprise! Something sounded suspicious at the end of the Reading assess. A booklet missed. One student didn't handle in his/her booklet. Who and why? The enigma remains unsolved. At Listening assess, I got C. It's what I was expecting. That's my weakness. However, little by little, my listening skills are getting improved. About Speaking assess, I obtained B+. Finally, I got A- at writing assess. No wonder, this is my favourite and secrete weapon. In total, I have collected 2 fails and 2 successes. As it has been seen, the assessment exam is not an invincible monster. All my fellow classmates are capable of destroying that powerless"moster" made from paper. Be strong, my friends. The assess exam is afraid of you. Good luck to all of you. I will book another appointment possibly for December or later for a second attempt. Victory is on our side; we get power to accomplish any goal. Just do it.

Life is this.

When your scream goes no where, when you have to accepet the dictation, when for better future you should be silent, when you cannot do any thing, when you should be patient, when you see unfair happening, when....
Life is this, every where...

I just watched a movie in wed. Actually, I planned 'Nick and Norah's Infinite playlist' however, when I entered the hallway, I discovered many people going to 12 gate, and I followed the flow with curiosity. I thought it must be a very good movie, for there was full of people in hall. As a result, from beginning to end, actors and actresses say each word with 'f' word. the movie' name is 'Zack and Miri make a porno'.

which score is passed? a b c d f

Does any one know, what grade is pass in Nait assessment test, what is A, B,...? - and +, to percentage, which one is passed?

Farmanieh Club
According to an anonymous writer 68% of the marriages that took place in Farmanieh Club (one the famous and expensive club, chamber, hall, arena! In Tehran, Iran) would have ended up to divorce in less than a year.

As you may know, before marriage Iranians do not officially be with each other; however, they might be together unofficially and under grand. Under grand, means they will go travel together, the stay some nights together, the make love, and so more. They might lied to their families and do these. Iranian marries together, and after they live together. This trend is usual in many eastern countries which could included whole the world expect the continent of America and some few European countries.


Furthermore, Farmanieh Club is a place for any kind of ceremonies mainly marriage, which women and men have to sit separately in different areas. Therefore, it can be inferred the individuals who rent it for a night and pay US $ 150.000, is more likely to be rich and religious.
According to the report, during the last year up to 350 ceremonies, anniversary, celebrations, marriage took place there. It is worth to say that some of the recognized athletes and top positioned person celebrate there. The report also has a glance to the too high amount of the promises that groom promised to the bride.

This promise is a tradition of Iranians that the groom promises some valuable things (mainly gold coins) to bride before they married, and after deal accepted they will marry. Bride may ask for it after marriage whenever she wants, and by law groom has to pay it. I should add one more thing, this promise is in addition to the half of their properties that groom should sign on the contract on the time of the marriage. The mentioned promise and the half of the properties might caused some divorce in the now days life of young Iranians couple, moreover it make marriages harder. Until 2007 the amount of the promises even would be more than 2000 gold coins (each coin now is $ 220). However, not all people follow the high rank of promises; girls are likely to have higher promises.

The report also added the approximate total price of all invited people’s cars in one of the ceremonies in the Farmanieh club, it said approximatly 17 million Dollars.

It appeared funny mean while sad. While the crack between the poor and the rich is so high, is sad. As a brief conclusion, I could say, the money is not all, but it could bring comfortable live. Money cannot provide love. Money even makes your choice harder, because you cannot understand that he/she come for you or your money. On the other hand, you may not let yourself to fall in love with someone who had nothing, or you do not want. Also, the person who is not rich cannot fall in love of a rich person or he does not have dare to do that, because many persons will infer she/he is there because of money.

It is sad, isn’t it?

hi guys! l came up with an other question.l needed to ask ,because ;given suggestions didn`t work out .so l change my question "how l can escape from school.":is there any body who knows secret ways?pleeeeeease ,i`m begging you.tell me the secret

Burnout

Hey there, studious people,

Do you know what burnout is? If you have been studying for a long, long time without a break, and you feel unmotivated and "blah", then you are probably suffering from burnout. You are burnt out. This often happens in the middle of a final semester of study.

There are ways to combat burnout. One way is to take a complete break: unfortunately none of us can take this option at this stage of the semester! Another way to fight the midterm bleargh is to find creative ways to study. Reading a good book is often just as good a way to study as looking over grammar points; in fact, it is probably better for your overall writing style, and it is much more fun. Homework has to be done, but maybe you can do your homework with friends. Find a quiet corner of the Project Factory or library at school, and declare a homework session or study club.

I feel it too. I don't WANT to do any work. Especially now that cold weather is here, I just want to curl up with a good book and not leave the house again until April. Or May, if the snow is still around. But I believe that we can get through this, and that you all will go on to better things.

Do you have any formula for being alive again??

I don't know what is happening on me, but I cannot focus on anything! I know, I have to study, at least 1-2 hours everyday for the TEST, but I cannot:( This test makes me stress (perhaps this is the reason) but I don't want to create fake reasons:) Nowadays, I feel laziness.  I don't want to do anything, no cooking, no school, and so on....  Just relaxing and not thinking anything:)

Do you have any suggestion to be active??

Good evening

I noticed that some of classmates have already taken the assessment test. I start realizing that this level 5 will be the last class for me to learn English as a second language. Nobody cares about who have taken ESL class or not in the program.
Once I start thinking about it, I cannot stop doing that.
This is one of my bad habit.
I try to stay optimistic and positive attitude everyday, but sometimes I am not.
I believe that it is not only me, and it is happen to most of them.
I hope everything will be alright for all of us.

Utopia

Last week, at the end of their global annual conference, doctors were given themselves a mission
to conduct a scientific research in order to find what happens just after a person passes away. Doctors setted a deadline of three years during which they will try to get a possible answer. We know that the job of doctors consists of treating sick people by using medications, surgery, and many other methods. Therefore, physicians and surgeons cure bodies. However, a human being is not only composed by a body, but also by a soul. By definition, soul is the spiritual part of a human being in relation to God. It has been seen that doctors practice their medecine in a physical or material scoop. In fact, doctors utilize various measurement instruments, but what they measure is always physical data, such as blood pressure, type of blood, and so on. They have basically no instrument to measure soul. Death is still one of the great mysteries of God. All these mysteries belong to spiritual matters, to God intelligence. The land located beyond death is unexplored by our limited human brain. For this reason, I think that within three years doctors will probably find nothing interesting about life beyond death.

Assessment exam. 15 and 25 of November

Hello every one, today I had Nait assessment exam. It was good, I don’t know what will happen, but I hopefully I can pass, hopefully.
I think that it might be useful for you to know the assessment exam. Just as a suggestion, do not try to be specific in this fields; you will be assessed from all parts.

The test consisted of many part, first and at first gate of the exam was the lovely graph analyze, the graph was from statistic Canada, and was about shelter costs in Alberta. Second, was writing with a topic, there were no two topics to chose, the topic was briefly about a school which wanted to buy either book or computer. Thus, you should have written a persuasive essay and support you idea of which one is better.

The next section was reading, the reading included of 3 passage of one main topic. The topic of the reading was about how Canada provides electricity and the way of supply it. It was mainly the effect of supply electricity on the environment, fishes, fossil fuel sources, nuclear, and hydroelectricity. It had 30 questions. The tricky question here was the meaning of some few word, such as something…fetch”, and “pose” . Also “spawn”. And the last question which was ridicules, it asked if dam build why is it harmful for fish? And the answer was terrible, because at the passage it did not exactly said why.
After, it was listening turn, I guess, it was completely simple; however, they chose the answers totally tricky. By the meaning of one of the question was: When will you arrive?
And the answers which were close to select were: On September and other in three weeks.
Unfortunately,I changed my answer to on September because I inspired by heavy collective idea about the other selection, so chose that. Indeed, I selected the correct one initially, and I changeh my correct answer. The right answer is in three weeks because months do not take “ON”. The other tricky question was that” what did she make him?” and I do not know which answer was better; however I selected she made him cook. The other hard listening question was something like this: will they moved? And the answer was tricky. At least for me was tricky.

The next part of listening was totally simple, about the fast foods, and the percentages of eating out, restaurants, costs. This part was easy, do not worry.

In spite of all, speaking was the hardest part. It was hard, she ask me ability to convince!, ability to talk , pronounce, and analyze. I like the speaking exam, there is no way to pass it if you are not ready. She was completely powerful in the field, and she analyzes you as a doctor to a patient. She was nice and powerful.

The speaking was briefly consisted of introducing yourself, your field, your job, describing a simple picture. Also, you should read an article and summarised it and speak about it. It seemed harder than reading part! After you had summarized it, you should have read a paragraph of that mentioned hard article, loudly.

At the end, it assesses you about ability of talking and the policy of talking. Which was an example of an everyday situation, and how we should manage it, and talk about it. however, I hate to play a role , and bring reason or not being honest, you i had to play that. You have to play that, if you are absent , you should tell that you were sick , not you were in vacation! It was not on the exam, but the question might be like that. The question was about how you could tell lie.!

I know, the sharp tongue will execute a happy head.

What a week

At the begining of the week I thought I would not be able to see the end of it. This last week had been a tough one. I was going to bed late in the night and woke up very early in the morning of the next day. As all of you know Vivienne loved torturing her students, well she did a great job with the Mid Turn exam. Fortunatly, the headache partially has finished, but remember that on Monday we have two presentations. At least I have them on that day. Now guys, what we have to do is relax, at least for a day, because we all deserve it.

How I m doing to my mid term exam?

Elephant

One day, somewhere in the world, a teacher asked to his students if they had ever seen an elephant. Subsequently to students' negative answers, the teacher decided to bring them to a special circular building where they could watch an alive elephant. In that three-floor building, were many small rooms and a shelter in the courtyard. Each student occupied a private room to watch the elephant that was in the shelter. Also, everyone was assigned to draw the elephant for a further discussion in class. After they got back to school, the teacher told the students to share their sketches with peers. All the students noticed that their drawings were differents from each other. In fact, depending on his room, each student had a limitted angle of view. As a result, one student drew only the trunk of the elephant whereas another one drew the tail, and so on. Consequently, they fought each other because everyone thought that he was right and the others were wrong. At the end, the teacher showed them a nice picture of an elephant. He taught the students that in the world, each person is unique. We are all moulded depending on our culture, and education. We should tolerate the differences and practice the law of LOVE.

Oh~ My GW midterm!

I didn't have enough time to finish it! How about you guys?

Midterm

after reading the novel 'never cry wolf' (2)

When we mention wolf, we associate it with brutal, fierce, outrageous and cruelhearted attribute. However, wolf also has more beautiful qualities. For example,

Wolf only has one partner with its all life, and they together live with their baby.

Wolves keep well-regulated life. Early in the evening the males go off to work and the next morning they will come to bring food for babies and the famales.

No orphan in wolf’ world, for once there are some babies lost their parents, other family would raise them automatically.

Wolf can communicate with one another over very great great long distance what you think through wolf’howl. Another wonder is some particular native people could hear and understand what the wolves said. This is true. Because the special native people could know where appeared herd of caribou through wolves communicating.

Wolf never have fun by killing animals. If they are full, they have a rest.

there are the strongest team spirit in wolf world and other animals.

after reading the novel Never cry wolf

the novel ‘never cry wolf’ I read brought me into wolf world. This is a true event.
in 1970s, government from Ottawa figured the reason why caribou’ amount declined
was on wolf’ account; therefore, people intended to hunt largely wolves so the wolf’ amount
slump sharply. At that time, the author took a very tough work to go to arctic to investigate

wolf and environment, he spent whole summer around the wolves. He watched by 15 feet
away from a wolf’ family, and he has ever exposed himself to the wolves. The wolves ignored him and he intended to attract the wolf’ notice, but the wolves still went on with politeness.
The result of study was people hunting largely made caribou reducing. A Indian hunted 200—300 caribou every year, and the Indian captured 2 caribou in a week for his 14 dogs and himself’ diet so it could be figured out how many caribous thousands of Indian killed in a year. However, as wolves, they only attack older or weak caribou and when they met herd of caribou, they watched and waited a chance, so wolves train caribou. If no wolf exists, caribou is not what caribou is now. In China of 1960s, as there were more lots of wolves in grassland, there were so much more stronger herd of horses running on the grassland. However, now almost no wolf there so no stronger horses existed. It is very sad.

Superstition

Many people from my country are afraid of Halloween. Our chidren grow up in Canada and attend same schools with native Canadians. For this reason, they are integrated and are willing to participate to Halloween festivities. However, the majority of Conglese parents warn their progenies to stay away from any activities related to Halloween. According to many Congolese, Halloween goes with ghosts, curse, and death. In fact, in Africa, we grow up with fear of wicthcraft. We believe that evil spirits and sorcerers could negatively influence our lives, or bring people to death. These beliefs are a significant part of our Bantu culture. Personaly, I can proudly declare that I am free of these notions. My eyes are now opened, so I see the spiritual light. As a result, I will allow my children participate to all Halloween festivities with the firm conviction that nothing harmful will happen to my family. " Knowledge is power.", said F. Bacon.
Are you afraid of ghosts?
