The first difficult situation I am confronting is obtaining more confidence in getting along with American. Due to deficiency of oral interpreting, it takes me too much time to express an idea or viewpoint during normal conversation. The embarrassment from the vocabularies and pronunciation mistakes continuously frustrates my mind even though my American peers are very friendly and patient to listen to what I’ve said. I know it’s no way better than keeping practicing with persistence. I must catch up every single chance to give a talk with native speakers in every occasion as long as I want to reach the improvement of using English.
Another hardship I am having is regulating the discipline in learning and planning my schedule. I personally prefer to make my life casual and easy, but life is a serious challenge. It often been said that successes is made from discipline and orders. I usually don’t follow the routine to face my life because perhaps I like random surprises and unpredictable creativity. However, in fact, my daily life is messy now. I neither reach any achievement in my learning nor concentrate on the focusing of academy. There is abundant temptation around my environment, and I’d better determine my mind to transform myself into a convincing organizer; otherwise, l cannot survive by the luck.

Obese children outgrowing kids' clothing and furniture

This news article deliberates that the growth of children obesity has been affecting the size of school furniture and kids' cloth, and this phenomenon reflects that American teenagers' health condition has become a significant issue. Moreover, the article also mentions how to make improvement which is given from Michelle Obama on overweight students.
I posted the news because the keeping healthy is a global concern. In fact, now I'm trying to deal with my obese body. After finishing this article, I entirely agree with the point given from Mr. Lebron because the main purpose of losing weight is being healthier gradually not attempting a good-looking outfit. The practical and beneficial motivation are actually encouragement and confidence from colleague's honesty and sympathy. For example, when my friends reminds me about my heavy weight, I wouldn't feel depressed because I know they hope me have a good body status, and they don't want me feel embarrassed and shamed.

The article indicated that Jeremy Lin who was traded from Warriors to the Knicks had astonishing performance in recent games. Jeremy has not only reversed Knicks' bad situation but also rescued his coach's job.
I posted this article because Jeremy, the first Asian point guard in NBA and a reverent christian, has broken the stereotype that Asians are lack of athletic proficiency due to its physical conditions. As for me, Jeremy is humble and diligent even though now he has become a shining spotlight. Unlike most American players, he use the simplest way without any over-decorated styles to encounter his opponents and get the score. He knows what he is supposed to do or not to do whenever he attacks or defenses. I respect him because of his personalities. He inspire his teammates and all of the audience dramatically. He seems to run with angels or invisible power, and people cannot anticipate what surprising thing he will present in next second.
