This is about my partner whose name is Jose. He works four days a week. His house and job are in Queens. He has been working there for one year but he had many experiences working at his place. Before he moved to New York, he had lived in Mexico. He is single and does not have a girl friend. I think that he really enjoys his free time before becoming to be a hushand and father. He wants to get a better job that is why he is attending this class.

Jose has a big family but he has lived alone since he came here. He has four younger sisters and one younger brother. He said that when he felt lonely or missed family, he usually goes to theather or goes to the Gym to throw away his feelings. Horror moives are the most favorite genre.

After studying in here, when he learned a lot of money, he wants to go back to his country to live his family together. This is the most priorities of his dreams in his life.

Ideas about "The Last Elevator"

2011-11-01T19:12:00.000-04:00

-They were lucky.

-We should enjoy our lives every single moment because you don't know when you are going to die.

-Despite the accident, you can't stop thinking that you will do what you have to do to be happy.

-This story is such a sad situation. I'm so sorry about that,

They had good fortune. They are a lucky case.

-If I had been there, I would have had heart failure.

-This conversation reminds me of a story of World War II in my country. I heard about a story like this. If you had left a place like home and so on one moment earlier , you would never have come back.

-The attack has changed people's lives enormously, so there wasn't forgiveness.

-The three are the only ones who can heal each other because they share knowledge of the fear of that day.

Ideas about "Speaking About Islam"

2011-11-01T19:10:00.002-04:00

-Religion is supposed to be an intimate (personal) thing.

-She said that before she was a girl and before she was a Muslim, she was human.

-Killing will not bring you peace.

-Religion is supposed to be an intimate thing. It's a relationship between a person and god, not related to fighting.

-The girl still loves her religion.

-After 9/11, many people were hurt, and relations with other countries were also affected.

-When 9/11 had just happened, Muslim families had difficulty living in the U.S.A.

-People easily believe the media.

-The girl in this story is positive.

-People have to make sure what is good and bad.

-Religion is a good thing for human beings, but it is also free. You can't force anyone to follow yours, and you also need to respect other religions.

-9/11 wasn't anyone's fault. It was the fault of this world. You can't blame anyone or any country. Everyone is a victim because it comes from human desire for power and money.

-The 9/11 accident raised challenges about the racial or religious issues in the U.S. It not only hurt Americans but also hurt immigrants in America, especially among Islamic Americans.

-The narrator got some abuse from people who had some misunderstandings after 9/11.

-The narrator thought religion is a relationship between a person and god, but she also realized that sometimes they needed to explain the Muslim culture to others who didn't understand, although she felt tired and lost her patience.

Steve Jobs speech

2011-10-13T14:00:00.000-04:00

He told us you've got to find what you love and to follow your heart and intuition.

He also said that there is no reason not to follow your heart. Because what you love is gonna fill mostly of your life. And it makes you satisfied.

This is my life. I know what I want to do. Time is limited. I don't settle. I follow my heart and trust my self.

Can you think that when a guy passed away at the age of 56, his life was really successful?

2011-10-11T23:18:00.003-04:00

S.J

Can you think that when a guy passed away at the age of 56, his life was really successful?

When the first time I had listened to this speech, I thought he was one of the most successful person in the world.
After his death, I watched his video, I have listened this speech so many time, then I felt that he was not as much success as I thought. I dare say, he may be a loser.Let get this straight.

Whole his speech was described what difficult his life was.It was great contrast between rough time and when the business went fine. It is easy people to say he was creative or inventive or so;yes he was in business.But I didn't consider how much he paid the highest price.The path he went over has not been smooth, and it seemed his life was not quite as easy as we.
I just want to say to S.J: thank you for awesome products, and you gonna be relaxed.

From Steve Jobs 's speech, he gave an idea that you have to trust and believe in yourself. This is will make a difference in your life and it will never let you down. You have to find what you love. because your work will be a large part of your life and it will be a great work. And the only way to do great work is to love what you do. If you haven't found it yet, you have to keep looking. Don't settle. Your heart will know when you find it. To do what you love, live for the best of your life, you will never work a day. You have to do the best in everyday like today is your last day. Sometime, life hit you in the head with a brick, but don't lose faith. You can start over again. The heaviness of being successful will be replaced by the lightness of being a beginner again . This is will free you to enter to the creative period of your life. Everything will get better and better in everyday . Stay hungry , stay foolish , keep exploring, believe in yourself, you will be success and be happy in your life.

You've got to find what you love. And that is as true for your work as it is for your lovers. Your work is going to fill a large part of your life, and the only way to be truly satisfied is to do what you believe is great work. And the only way to do great work is to love what you do. If you haven't found it yet, keep looking. Don't settle.

Your time is limited, so don't waste it living someone else's life. Don't let the noise of others' opinions drown out your own inner voice. And most important, And most important, have the courage to follow your heart and intuition. They somehow already know what you truly want to become. Everything else is secondary.

You have to find what you love to do and have a lot of passion about what you are doing and love it, If you are not you will give up.

Don't let the others' opinion drown out of your inner voice.believe in yourself.

Live your life like there's no tomorrow.

2011-10-10T16:44:00.001-04:00

Steve Job’s speech is very emotional and inspiring. The history of his life is little bit the same of the history of the most of people. Everybory has a dream and almost everybody has troubles and difficulties in life, even a genious like Steve Job. That means that the importance is be patient, persistent, not give up and do your best. This is the only way to achieve our dreams.

I listend Steve Jobs' speech. I have never listend someone's speech. It was my first time what was listen speech. In the speech, I refer to his speech, he said that I found what I loved to do early in life. He found what he loved something to do early It is really his luck.

Summary of "Romantic Love Lasts Only a Year."

2011-10-04T01:17:00.000-04:00

Lake.Jin-
Italian scientist have discovered romantic love fades in intensity over the course of a year,and that controlled by a chemical in the brain. Researchers from the University of Pavia discovered there has a kind of protein control that increase and decrease of when a person first falls in love or over a year. They determined that protein to called NGF. Dr. Enzo Emanuele and his research team analyzed the protein balance in the bloodstream and compared the levels of NGF of the 58 volunteers, Who had recently started a new relationship. Finally Dr. Enzo reported: "We have demonstrated for the first time that circulating levels of NGF are elevated among subjects in love, suggesting an important role for this molecule in the social chemistry of human beings."
Level : 4.2

Kumiko Yamauchi Summary of Romantic Love Lasts Only a Year

2011-10-04T01:05:00.000-04:00

Italian scientists have found that a chemical in the brain responsible for
romantic love slowly disappears in over a year. Researchers discovered that
when a person first falls in love, level of a protein highly rises
up. The protein called Nerve Growth Factor (NGF). Levels of NGF highly
reduces over a year or within the couple becomes partner. A reserch team
solved that the NGF balance in the bloodstream of 58 volunteers aged between
18 and 31 are greatly increased by love. All of volunteers had started a
new romantic love and had starry eyes. To fall in love makes us euphoric.
But It is only beginning of love.
