Week 7: Review

Meme from Growth Mindset Memes.

This picture was from one of my favorite post on the announcements page from Sunday, October 11. I think this really stood out to me because it applies to me in one of my classes this semester. This class was said to be extremely hard, from a large number of my peers as well as professor rating websites. But the pro about this class was that it was extremely relevant to my field as well as a good precursor to medical school and would help in my efforts in taking the MCAT. So, I took the leap of faith and took it, even though I knew that I would be struggling to keep up with the material just because this class is so challenging. Right now, I am only holding on to the fact that a lot of people said it would be worth it in the end. My future success (and by success, I mean the prospects of me making an A in this class) looks pretty dim right now but I'm going to keeeeeep holllddinngg onnnn! :) Enough of my rambling, have a nice day!

It's so fascinating to see how many people speak which languages! Look how huge Chinese is compared to English. I never knew!

Week 5: Review

My favorite item from the current announcements page this week is:

Shapes of Stories by Kurt Vonnegut from Sunday, September 27.

I thought this was a great visual representation of our feelings when we read these types of stories. Taking a look at Cinderella and Boy Meets Girl, I have to admit that was exactly how I felt when I read them.

Review:

My favorite course announcement this week was from Saturday, September 12: 

(my screenshot)

I was so confused when I first read it, but when I read through the list I finally got it! It's so weird how the English language can make the same sounds with so many different letters. In other languages like Korean or Vietnamese, each letter always has the same sound and there are no possible substitutions. This really shows how complex English is!

My favorite item from this week's current events is:

This image was from Saturday, September 5. I thought this Thesaurus Saurus was cute!

The Map of the Internet was my favorite post from August 30. Look at how big Facebook is on the right side!

I have to also add the Grammar and Style Guide to #Yodify Your Language post from August 26, which I thought was pretty funny.
