CESL Stress

In my special case I feel stress when I have something to do. When I prepare for any exam I do not feel stressful. However, when I go to my class to take the exam I feel stressful. On the other hand, TOEFL drives me crazy and is stressful even if I start to study it. Moreover, the listening part is the most stressful part on the exam. Then I become a little bit stressed when I move to the other parts. Also, there is a big stressful point on the TOEFL which is the time. On TOEFL I face many reasons that increase my stress such as the level of questions and the time. In fact, the stress makes my grade worse than what I deserve. Finally, I should be stressed less on my exams because that will improve my grades.

Deal with stress

Stress is something we face every day in our lives. The stress is caused by different things. However, the important thing is how we should deal with stress. When I feel stressful the first thing I do is take a long breath. If I feel stressful in a public place I try to walk to be more relaxed. In addition, when I feel stressful because I have a quiz or exam I try to go to the recreation center and I do some body exercise such as aerobic exercise. The best thing for my case to relieve my stress is to go to the swimming pool, because that makes me more relaxed. Sometimes I would like to see some of my friends, because that helps to break stress. Moreover, I like to watch movies when I feel in a bad mood, because that helps to be stressing less. All these ways work very well and change my mood to be better.

Cash flow not debt causes student stress, scientists told

According to Ed Ewing and Rachel Jasper in “Cash flow not debt causes student stress, scientists told”, the money needs are leading students to have stress. Dr. Scott, who is in the Psychological Society, from University of Manchester, did a study which covered a lot of students, and the result of that is the students need more money to be away from stress; also he suggested that they should offer some money management education programs for students to teach them how they can deal with money problems. Moreover, Dr. Scott claims that the students should learn how they can manage their money needs in an earlier age such as before they get into the university. Helen Crevel is a student, and she agrees with Dr. Scott and she believes that the students need more education about their budget because that will make students away resist.

The difference between the weather in the U.S. and in the K.S.A.

The weather in the U.S. and in the K.S.A. are totally different.
In the U.S. the weather has all the four seasons, spring, winter, summer and fall. But in the K.S.A. we just have two seasons, winter and summer. Also, when the winter comes in the U.S., they have a lot of rain and snow and it is too cold here. In the K.S.A., when the winter comes, it is too cold, but that’s it, no rain, no snow, we have nothing except cold weather. It is so different for me to live in the U.S. Sometimes I face some difficult time, like driving in the snow, or walking when it is raining, because I may fall down. But I love it here because you feel you are alive. Also, we don’t close our schools because of the weather. Moreover, K.S.A. is not a beautiful place to visit, because we don’t have anything like what the U.S. has of beautiful nature.

I love Carbondale

Carbondale is the best city in the world to live in, because it is not a big city, it is not very crowded, and it is a student's city, so it is cheap to live here. It does not cost me too much to rent an apartment or for other services. I believe that Carbondale is healthy place to live in, because it has many green trees. Also it doesn't have any factories. Moreover, it has the most wonderful university in the U.S, S.I.U. Also, it is very quiet, which is good for me as a student. Finally, Carbondale actually it is a beautiful city. It has so many lakes, beautiful green trees and wonderful weather; it has all the four seasons, winter, spring, summer, and fall.

The Biggest Causes of Stress in Modern Life

Stress is a big factor in our lives, not just in the U.S. but also in different places in the world. We have to start to find the solutions to help people deal with their worries and problems. From my perspective I think there is a strong relationship between human behavior and health. Also the job or work affects the people and their minds. Finally the stress may affect your physical health.

Did our behavior affect our health? The answer is yes, our behavior can badly affect our health. People can have stress when something happens
like natural disasters such as hurricanes, tornadoes and earthquakes. When you feel stress, your hormones will be modified and you will be more exposed to heart diseases. Further, when you got stress your immune system heightens the probability of contracting colds or cancer. For example, my father has a really stressful life because he is a business man; his health is not so good. He has a heart disease and he has a high blood pressure. Also, he has diabetes and his doctor told him that all these came from his stress.

It is really your work that affects your mind and affects your stress. The studies find that if you work inside, that can be a good reason to have stress; for example, the study shows that line workers and air-traffic controllers are the most stressful jobs. When you are a teacher of adult people or when you are a secretary this kind of job is not stressful. For example, one of my mothers was a teacher for 20 years and she told me that she never faced stress.

On our life we face a lot of things that cause small stress such as waiting in the long line or taking an exam, trying to find a job or losing your job. Also, sometimes we have a small problem with our family or our friends and the biggest stress is the death of loved one, like when a husband loses his wife or a wife loses her husband or a mother loses one of her kids. The studies show that when you lose someone you love you will feel desperate and stressful; that will make it harder for your immune system to reject cancer. However, stress will not only make it harder to face cancer but will make you more likely to get diseases such as heart disease, high blood pressure, headache and acid in the stomach. Also, when somebody has stress that will drive him to do some bad behavior that will affect his physical health. Activities such as smoking cigarettes, drinking alcohol, eating too much or too little, or skipping exercise make it easy to get any of these diseases.

In conclusion, stress is a large issue in the world. We should find answers for people about how to deal with their stress. There is a connection between people's actions and their fitness. Also, the occupation affects directly on people's brains; moreover, stresses may influence your physical condition.

I don’t have to go to the mall anymore

In the past the people had to go to the mall if the needed anything or go the stores where they could find what they needed. But the world has been changing now; if I need anything I can log in to the Internet and go to an online shopping website and choose what I want and buy it, and they will send it to me. I prefer online shopping because it is easy, I can get anything I want when I am sitting in my home. Another benefit is that I can find a big collection, I can see everything any brand from any store. I don’t have to buy just what we have in the next mall. So I have a choice. Also, it can be cheaper than buying stuff from the stores, I can find many collections and I can combine the model, the brand name and the size. Nowadays it has be come a very illustrious business, and I think that people who have an online business can make good money very easily.

In K.S.A. Alcohol Is In Illegal

It is totally different in K.S.A; we don’t drink alcohol, which is good. In SIUC I always see students who went to the bar on the weekend. When they went there, they seem to me that they are so happy. But after midnight the bars start closing, and the students look terrible. They do crazy things the gust laughing and they sleep on the ground. I thank god that the people in K.S.A can't drink alcohol. In K.S.A the students have different things to do on weekends. They go to a place where they can play sports or they go to their friends' house and they watch movies together or watch television. Or study. They are really healthy young people. I wish that one day they will outlaw alcohol on the U.S.

My favorite restaurant

Olive Garden is an Italian restaurant which is my favorite restaurant. This restaurant is so elegant and it is a nice place to go. Also, they have delicious food. They have an unbelievable menu. The have soups, appetizer, salad, desert and steak. They also have all kind of Italian pasta. For me, I really like the fettuccini that is made with chicken and Alfredo sauce it tastes so good. Moreover, their waiters are very polite. When you want to invite someone to such a nice place, it is the perfect one. I really like it and I enjoy my time there. Now I feel hungry to just think about it.
