"IMPACTS ABOUT TELEVISION"

How much should people watch it? Kids should be limited?


TV is one of the most prevalent media influences in kids' lives.

On children depends on many factors for example: how much they watch, their age

and personality, whether they watch alone or with adults, and whether their parents

talk with them about what they see on TV.

To minimize the potential negative effects of television, it's important to

understand what the impact of television can be children.

Below you will find information on some areas of concern. TV has violent

programming affects children and young people.

Watching TV is an experience shared by most adults and children.

It is cheap, appealing, and within the reach of the general public. In this way,

TV has become an important mass media around the world, but sadly this resource

isn't used in a way that people could get the best possible benefits from it.


The first reason why people shouldn't watch to much television is; because the

content of many TV programs is not educational. Nowadays, we can see movies,

series, and shows that present scenes of violence, sex, and drugs too.

This has established wrong concepts among the audience that influence them

in to having a negative behaviour.

Moreover, the impact of this tendency has on children is worse, because they grow

up with the idea of a world where problems can only be solved with money and

violence, and where wars are inevitable. An other reason that people shouldn't

watch TV is, because it makes people waste time that could be used in more

beneficial activities.

For example: exercise, reading, activities that are good for a healthy lifestyle.

In fact watching TV for long periods of time has negative effect over the intelectual

development of children and leads to deterioration of the mental capacity in older

people by causing both attention and memory problems in the long term.


In conclution, people shouldn't watch too much television, because the content of

many programs are not educational, it makes people waste time that can be used in

more beneficial activities.

However, this doesn't mean that we shouldn't avoid , but we should do it with

moderation TV is a resource that we can choose the right program for our own active

life and critical attitude towards it.

"LETTER TO MY NEW IMMIGRANTS BROTHERS AND SISTERS"

Welcome to the country of the opportunities...!!!


First at all, I would like to give you some advice and warnings, to avoid your

gettting into trouble in this country...


1.- I recommend as soon as you start looking for a job you also try to find an

English school, because without English you will have to many difficulties, because

this is the country where English is spoken.


2.- Also as soon as you have time, start study the driving liscence book. And

learn all the rules of the State do you are living at. Try to follow those rules

exactly the way did you learned, them, because tickets are very very expensive!!!.

And you might not be able to afford them. I will also recommend you to get very good

car insurance, because the more legally do you drive the more problems you will

avoid...


3.- Also at the time you are studying and working try to save some money to buy a

good car, it doesn't really matter if it is not brand new, but enough for you needs.

I also recommend you to buy a cell phone you might not need

it, but everyone has one.


4.- Try to make nice friends, and avoid the troublemakers, remember you are new in

this country and you don't know yet the consequences, when you do something wrong.


5.- I also recommend you, to help people such as new immigrants that way

you won't loose your mind and forget, that you are immigrant too.


6.- You will have struggle, to complete any goals that you promise your self, it will

be challenge to you to reach high, life is not easy... keep working on it...


7.- I know in fact, it is not easy, but whenever there are people around you, try to

keep very nice and beautiful smile!!!!... I mean all the time, even when they don't

return the favor. To any place do you go. In this country are "many many strange

people" too, but not like our home country. Also when they ask you anything in a

bad mood, don't really care about it and answer polite and nicely, they will be

grateful to hear that...

(you will probably make their day!)


8.- When you get invited to a any friend's house for party, try to speak politely,

and have a nice and an important conversation, about good things that do you have

been learning... And how happy do you feel, to have been in this country. (even

with all those difficuties) American people enjoy to talking to people, from other

countries, about good experiences; for example: culture about your country, or just

about the job do you are working at that moment. They also like to speak about

experiences in general life..., be very careful about the words you use to speak

with them.


In conclusion, I just want to say, try to take out all your good humans feelings do

you have and enjoy this beautiful country. Keep working hard with towards your

goals and I hope these tips can help you to have a succeesful life.


And again Welcom Welcome to the U. S. A.

Martha...!!!

"IN MY EXPERIENCE"

In my experience, immigrants help each other whenever we can!!!!!


I'm complete agree about this point, I am immigrant too, and I have very good

experiences more than bad ones.

I came to the U.S. 16 years ago for vacations and, to meet some of my family I didn't

see it for a long time. I was very surprise when my family came to airport to-

pick me up, my cousins, nieces some of them don't know me only by pictures.

Brought me some presents; like flowers, animal stuff and welcome cards, that made

turned on tears. So I was very happy and thinking that my stay in the U. S. will be

very good experience. (was UNFORGETTABLE day)

I have to be honest myself and said, all this time I have been living in the U. S.,

I did help immigrants and vice versa. For example: I remember the first time do I

have to aboard in the bus, but I didn't have idea how to do it and a very good

person, came to me and asked if I need any help?, and I told him yes; this is my

first time and I have no idea how? he told me don't worry I will teach you.

He explain me everything about routes I supposed to take. I couldn't forgot that

day. Been an immigrant is not barrier as long as we can help each other. We have to

help each other out, because sometimes we can't do it by our self.

I always willing to lend a helping hand to help each other succeed, I remember five

years ago I used to go to beauty school, but for some reason I never graduate.

I quit, but during those classes I met a very good girlfriend who followed her

dreams (graduate from beauty school). She is very positive person, I remember she

used to told me Martha; you have to be sure what exactly do you want for your

future don't expend your time for nothing, if you don't like this profession

look for something, that can be very interesting for your self. ( I think she was

right, because I quit) When were used to talk I told her, that she needs to learn

English too at the same time, because you will need it for your profession and,

because this is America; where English is spoken...

I want to say I am so proud about her, because after she got graduate she started

working for somebody else, but she was saving money to have her own place. Two

years later finally she opened her own business.

And now she has five different places; I still can't believed.

Now, when I talk to her, she say Martha you shouldn't quit, (I am thinking she was

right about me) that I didn't like her profession, but I'm follow her advice

too and, I'm sure I will be succeed like her, because now she is a good example for

me. We can work together to solve problems, find each other after drastic changes

in our lives, works here and the extent they're willing to whatever come.

We don't give up on each other. Making new friends, laughing, learning and creating

better forms of life.

Being human is helping other people, for our own richness; share our sadness, in

this way, we can hope to see as many people as possible together and overcome.

However, focusing on helping others feel good is actually a wonderful way!!!!

When you help other people get better, you naturally and automatically learn the way

to enrich your spiritual health, growth and development our sensibility of feelings.

"HACHIKO THE DOG HISTORY"



A college professor takes in a dog he finds abandoned, and both find their lives changed forever as they form an unbreakable loyalty to his master.


The true history of friendship between the dog Hachiko and his owner is a legend
among Japanese, a pet-loving nation that honors self-sacrificing loyalty.
Hatchiko used to wait every single day at the train station for its owner, a professor at the University of Tokyo.
Even for decade after the professor died. People were so moved they built a statue of Hachiko, at the station train.
Now a popular spot the history of Hachiko, who himself died in 1935, was made into a 1987 Japanese movie.


As soon as I started watching the movie I fell in love with Hachi.
What a faithful and loyalty dog. This miraculous history made me a big impression about, how much love you can have from dogs or any kind of animals. If you like to have a pet in your house and adopt as your family you will be blessed to enjoy a beautiful company in your heart and in your house too.
I have to be honest, I may not have the right word to describe this wonderful dog history. I can say loyalty, faithfulness and unconditional love, I have to admit that any human couldn't give that kind of unconditional love and be loyalty like Hachi. Those qualities that have earned dogs the title "MANS BEST FRIEND".

Hachi was inseparable friend right away from the start, each day; for example Hachi, used to accompanied his owner to the train station, when his owner have to left for work, was a happiness routine for Hachi who return at the same time every single day and wait for his owner patiently, with tail waging.
The routine continued until one tragic day his owner died before, he couldn't return home. At that time Hachi was less than 2 years old, but the big love between Hachi and his owner was strong. Hachi was continued waiting for his owner each single day at the train station. That is unbelievable love.


Now I have to say, after I watched the movie I became a dog lover!!!!
I promise myself I will be more friendly, compassionate and patient too, with dogs, cats and any pet in the world. The movie taught me a lesson about life: how much love you can have from dogs or any animal.
Finally Hachi died at the same spot he last saw his best friend alive.
( what a sad momentit was for Hachi)

I feel very honor about Hachi and I admire him who was a warm and wonderful canine!!!

I still crying when I remembering Hachi's experience how painful was for him, I can feel his pain...

My heart is broken in many pieces...

"MORNING OR NIGHT PERSON"

I am consider myself a night person, but I think I am a combination of both.

For example: in the mornings; I like to wake up early, if the day is bright and sunny, make feel I will have a wonderful and productive day.
I can walk for a while to get some energy and start my long day. Come back home and drink cup of coffee and eat light breakfast. After that start working in my garden doing some weeding and mow the lawn I really like to do that.

After finishing I go back in the house and do some cleaning too, for example: laundry, vacuum, wash the dishes and cook too.
After all that, I can plan my next day schedule and my goals, because I don't know if I will be able to get off early the next day.

In the mornings I also enjoy visit friends, and going to the mall to look for a good deals. But sometimes I hate the mornings, because there is so much noise, you can't even read a book or watch TV, because too many activities everywhere I know it is morning what do I expect?. This is what everyone is supposed to do.

Nighttime: as soon as it gets dark I feel like I going to my "real world". Its peaceful, and quiet, all the houses, buildings, parks are beautiful looking! With all the lights on, I feel it is Christmas, I really enjoy looking at the lights all over the place.
I also enjoy driving at night. All the roads clear, you noted how big, and how many lanes the freeway has, which is something you can't see in the morning.

I also like to see the moon in the sky, when there is a full moon, what a romantic view I love it!. It really impresses me.
Nighttime it is very special for me, because the darkness make me feel strong and full a happiness. I feel very relaxed and calm ready to enjoy my activities.
Sometimes I go out with my friends to dance or just go to see a movie. I also spend night times with my husband, watching TV or going out to dance and dinner too. I think nighttime has better TV programs for adults, for example: action movies, FBI series.

I am fanatic about watching the Discovery channel about cold cases. And of course computer time, I enjoy to chat with my friends, check my e-mails, play on face book, which is something new for me, but I really enjoy it, I also do my homework at night.

So I can say I am a night person!!!
