Panda eyes

Have you ever got panda eye? This is my first time with panda eyes. I woke up on Friday morning and saw panda eyes on my face. OMG! I need to rest and I need eyes cream. Somebody might wondered what panda eyes are. It's a dark spot under or around your eyes. It make you look like a panda. That's why ppl called it 'panda eyes.' How do you get panda eyes? There are three different reasons; face bone shape, genetic hyper-pigmentation, and vasculature inflammation. In other word, causes include hormone imbalance, birthmarks, poor diet, allergies, overexposure to the sun, or age. Panda eyes can be the result of lack of sleep which is how I got the panda eyes. I've been sleeping less than 5 hour a day for a whole week. Also, I got a cold from the kid I'm taking care of. I need a HUGE rest! That's all I want to say.

TGIF

Dead week

It was my dead week. I just started a new job on Monday. The job started at 6 am-8:30am. Mon- Fri. and I have another job from 9am - 5 pm. I'm normally a late person. So this is kinda hard for me to wake up this super early. The first day of the job, I was very worried. I set the clock at 5:20am. I woke up every hour because I was afraid that I'm not gonna make it. The next two days was better but still, I woke up an hour before wake up time. On the third day after long hour of works(6am - 11pm), I passed out while having dinner for couple minutes. OMG! I need some rest. I planned to go to bed at 10pm every night but I'd never made it. I usually go to bed around midnight or one in the morning. So when I went to bed, I couldn't sleep. I just laid down til midnight then I could sleep. The forth day I slept better but ........the thunder woke me up at 4am! WTH I couldn't go back to sleep since then. poor me. On Friday, I woke up 5 mins after the alarm. Plan to sleep early but as you see, I'm writing my week at 2 am. of Saturday! lol lol lol
PS. anyone follow the Boston bomb?

Single VS Married essay

I just want to write about this topic because I was talking about single and married with my friends while having dinner.

Do you think which one is better 'Single or Married?' Everyone in the world think about this. Some people like to stay alone while some do not. Which way is better? This essay will examine these two choices by looking at each in terms of way of life, financial issues and conflicts.

First, let's talk about the way of life. For single people, many of them feel that they have freedom and have no commitment. They can do anything or go anywhere they want with no worry because they do not have any responsibilities to anyone. In some countries, if people have family, they can not go out alone or hang out with their friends whenever they want. they have to look after their family or have to take everyone in their family with which means no freedom. On  the other hand, some people like to be part of a couple because they do not want to be alone.  They want to have someone to go everywhere with so they won’t feel lonely.  Many people who want to be married say that they feel good to have someone to care about and they feel better to know that someone is thinking and caring about them.

Second, there is a financial issue. For single people, there is clear about their financial because they don’t have to share with others.  Some people think a lot about their earning.  To earn money is hard so they want to use it as they choose.  Single people don’t have to let others use their money so they can use all of money they earn. Sometimes they will have more money left to deposit for a good future. In contrast for married people, They don’t have to worry too much when they are needed money because others can help.  Some family share their earnings with each other.  If one needs money in a hurry, they can use the others and don’t have to pay it back.

Finally, let's look at a conflict situation. Single people wants to solve problem by themselves. There is a proverb in Thailand that say, "Many people, many problems." It means that if you have one problem but there are many people who wants to solve it, the bigger problem occur. Everybody has their own way to solve the problem. If they can not agree, they argue and perhaps create even more problems. For the couples, they say it is better to have someone when needed. There is a proverb that says, “Two heads are better than one.”  If they have problems, there are two people to think or find the way out because some problems are hard to resolve by oneself.  And there is a sentence that says, “Family means nobody gets left or behind.”  If they have a problem, their partner or family will stay beside to help them; they won’t let you stay alone when you need some help.

This essay has attempted an overview of two ways, single versus married, and has look at financial issues and the way they remedy problems.  In conclusion, it is really hard to say which way is better. It depends on the individual thought.  Each of them has different advantages.  So, you can think about it.  Which way is better for you.  Think carefully!  It’s your life.

how to improve communication in your company

          Internal organization communication is often overlooked by management, but it plays a key role in creating an effective work environment. Communication affects the relationships among members in an organization. As the organization grows, it needs to build effective internal communication in order to build its strength. It is easy to give members messages, but the organization will not know whether or not the message has been received in the intended form. This causes misunderstandings among members. A communication problem can become a major problem in the long term. To improve the internal communication, there are easy three steps to follow.

          First, a company must learn and know their barriers. What are the barriers in internal organization communication? One of the biggest problems is there is no clear goal provided. This makes employees confused about what is important that the company wants them to do. Some organizations have language problems. Employees are speaking the language as a second language. This causes ineffective communication. . Other companies might just have less communication. So, the message does not spread out clearly or throughout the company. Misunderstanding occurs and it affects the company's performance.

          After knowing the barriers, then find the way to remove them. If the company has no goal provided, then set goals and operation manual. Goals ensure employees perform their best performance. Also, these goals help them accomplish the improvements. Find a translator if the company has a language problem. In addition, the company can suggest employees use clear and slow speech, repeat important points, and use visual representation to help communication. Moreover, encourage employees to show respect to others by listening deeply and asking questions to make sure that they understand it right.
          Finally, encourage communication within the company. Have monthly meetings to discuss and go over important information with the employees. This helps the organization ensure that all employees receive the right information. The regular meeting helps the organization be open and prevent misunderstandings. It builds relationships among employees to feel like a part of an organization. Also, it improves transition, sharing and exchange of information, about what is going on in the organization. Feedback is the best way for the organization to be sure that the information is accepted or not. if negative feedback occurs, the organization will get an advantage to solve it before it becomes a crisis problem.
          Knowing barriers to communication is the first step to minimizing their impact. Removing barriers helps organizations improve communication. Understanding the organization's communication process helps the organization communicate with employees effectively.
As the organization grows, effective internal communication is vital to future success. Communication will build the necessary work relationship between employer, employees, and third party members. Employees should make it known when a communication is not understood; and suggest when and how information could have been communicated more effectively.

      

I don't want rain!

Yeah! I don't want rain. Starting from Tuesday, it was raining all day. I had to work for my friend on Tuesday night. After done working, I drove home happily since I got out early on that day. Sadly, I couldn't find any parking spots near my place. I was driving around for almost an hour to find a parking. I finally got a spot which is really far away from my house. Uh huh...I had to walk home in the rain. On Wednesday, I gotta work in the evening again! Hurrrr.....it was another raining day. Done  working late and super tired. Guess what? Same thing happened! I couldn't find parking again. I drove around in the rain for forty minutes before I got a spot. Then walk back home three an a half blocks in the pouring rain. Thursday morning, walk out in the rain to move my car since I parked in the street cleaning side. Friday it was nice all day til i walked out my place with a Huge and heavy box. lol it started to rain. Please please please NO MORE RAIN.

my week

It's been a lazy and boring week since Monday. I had nothing to do all week (I do have homework but it's not time for that yet) OMG! finally something happened! On thursday, there's a gun shot next to my place!!!!!! I first thought it was something else after 6 shots, didn't know that you can shoot more than 6 at once. Anyway, my roommate told me to get down the floor. The shoot was coming closely to my place. Luckily it stopped before it gets to my place. The police was so slow. They showed up after 5 or 10 minutes and seemed like nothing happened. No sirens. No closing street. Only couple police cars. What the ..... in the world! Is that just a firework that I heard? I'm wondering.

Adoption

         'Child Adoption' what would you think of when you hear this word? What will you do to get a child adoption? What is the adoption process? How long will it take? These are some questions that you might think about. Adoption is the act or process of making someone's child part of your family. To get a child, will you just randomly take any kids? The answer is NO. So, how do you choose the adoption? There are three main types of adoption: domestic, foster care, and international.
           A domestic adoption is a process of a adopting a kid from a birth mom within the same country. It can be done through agencies or directly. In domestic adoption, there are three different type of the adoption; closed, open, and semi-open. The open adoption allows adoptive family and birth parents to exchange information, pictures and letters through the years. The closed adoption only allows the medical and historical information of the biological parents to adoptive family. The semi-open adoption allows adoptive family and birth parents to exchange information but never meet or talk before birth. After birth, they has no more contact. The process of domestic adoption usually takes up to two years.
           A foster care adoption is a type of domestic adoption. When the kids cannot be safely returned home to their parents, they are placed in the the public care. Some of them are placed with other family members or non-related adults that they have a significant attachment. Foster families may also choose to adopt the kids in their care once they are free for adoption.
           When you want a child from different country, it is an international adoption. The international adoption is the most complicated one. You have to accept the restriction of your state and the child's state law. Also, you have to obtain an immigration visa for the child before he/she entering the US. The process of the adoption might take from 6 months to several years due to the child's age and health.
          Learn the adoption types and process before you get into it. Also, think hard before you make a dicision. Can you give them all the love and care? Are you really ready? Although the adoption seems to be challenging, it is worth doing it.

Al! come back T___T

Please please please come back. I had a hard time in the class and I'm sure some others do too.

Dream Job

            Have you ever thought what you want to be when you grow up? Growing up I have so many dream and so many things I want to do. Thinking about it now I would want to have a job that let me have fun and make me feels like I am not working at all. I like to pass on the knowledge I have learned over the years to younger generation.  I want to do something that let me see others progress and grow.  My dream job is to be a teacher.  The skill need to be a teacher is to be organized and open minded.

To be a teacher, one need to prepare for class before and after.  So organization is the key skill for being a teacher.  A teacher need to prepare teaching material well before hand.  Plan about what to teach during class and explain each subject that follows will lead on to the next more difficult subject.  Teacher without organization skill will be teaching a very confusing class indeed.

Teacher will also have to be an open mind person and flexible.  Not every question has one absolute right answer and not every answer is an absolute wrong answer.  Not everyone learn the same way.  Some may learn by example and some may learn by just reading.  An open minded teacher will know that everyone have their own way of doing things.  An open minded teacher will know everyone was raised differently and that they are all different.

To be a good teacher, you also need to be patient,motivate, enthusiastic, and etc. To be organized and open minded is important if you want to be a good teacher. Anyway, it's just a dream job when I was young. I can never do it right now.

.....T ^ T.....

I wondered if it ok to write my journal for this week right now. But I just gonna write it anyway. As you know that I was moving last week, now I'm living in a new place. It has been 4 days living in a new place but I'm feeling so lonely. At my old place, it's only my lovely friend and I but I'd never felt this way. Here, more people in the place but I felt so lonely and empty. How can I get rid off this feeling? I felt like I'm in the wrong place. Why am I still here? All my good friends are back in Thailand now. I think I need a break. Too many things happened since New Year. Maybe I should go somewhere else. Somewhere far away from Chicago's old memories. Get refresh and come back to start over again. NOW! Where should I go?


Btw, I have to think what my dream job is! any suggestions? I have no idea about my dream job. I don't wanna do anything!
