Marriage Expert #9 assignment (Extra Credit)

Marriage Experts

I talked to my sister and her husband who have been together for 21 years. They have lived happy in past 21 years and have supported each other through out life. They had some challenges which they solved by talking to each others and finding each other's expectations. They told me that patience is the key to a successful marriage. If they had problems, They talked it out and tried to negotiate by setting a plan so that the same issue does not occur in the future. They also have supported each other in every moment of their marriage. Love is all you need to be successful in marriage. 

Assignment #8 Blog Homework

Final Blog 

I really enjoyed blogging this semester. I found many amazing friends to share some great information with. I learned many new things from my friends blogs that are going to help me live better and look at things different than before. I also found many old friends on blogger.com that are using this website to share their stories. I will definitely use blogger in future to connect with people, read their blogs, and learn new things. I find Facebook and Tweeter very boring and point less. I have never learned anything from those websites other than what people are doing or where they are going everyday. Blogging is a great tool to learn from each other and share information that can help us be positive in life. I believe websites that can educate you should be promoted more often rather than websites that wast out time learning nothing. It is sad that we are learning how to blog in college when they could teach us how to use this website in middle or high school. Thank you for being my friend and commenting on my blog posts. It was a great experience reading your lovely posts and being able to share our thoughts.

Ginger

Ginger has been used as a natural remedy for many ailments. Today, researchers are finding that ginger works wonders in the treatment of everything from migraines to cancer. I found ginger tea very tasty and it helps me to reduce my stress and get rid of headache.

3) Heartburn Relief

4) Cold and Flu Prevention and treatment

5) Migraine Relief

I could not find any negative effects of ginger. Ginger may have some side effects if consumed in larger doses. Those side effects are such as:
1) Mild heartburn
2) Upset stomach

Assignment # 5 Stress Reduction

Music

I picked listening to music as my stress reduction technique because that is what I enjoy doing. I work a lot and have to deal with many people at work. By the time I get off work, I am stressed out and need to do something about it. There are many songs by my favorite artists that I can relate to and feel good while listening to them. In past I would try to eat chocolate to reduce my stress but that was not helpful since I gained a few pounds ;) Music helped me physically because every-time I listen to a song with a nice beat to it, I get up and dance. Also it has helped me emotionally because when I am sad or angry, a slow song will calm me down. Music also has helped me mentally because I am not thinking as much when I listen to music and it is very relaxing when I do not think. I will try to listen to music everyday to relax and feel good.

Assignment #6 Kids off drugs

Kids off Drugs

If I ever have a child, I will make sure he or she is open to talk to me and is comfortable bringing problems home. It is so important to let your children know that they can tell you anything and that you will be there to support them. Many parents these days try to judge their own kids and they do not support them when they go through tough times. I will be friendly to my kids so they want to spend more time at home rather than staying out with friends. Also it is helpful if parents know who their kids hang out with and where they normally spend their time at. Giving a little information about drugs and the consequences will help preventing our kids from using drugs. Most teenagers who are using drugs today have problems at home with their parents or they do not feel comfortable staying home with their family.

You is 6 words project (Assignment #4)

You get what you work for.


I believe this because I had to work hard for what I have achieved so far. Nothing comes easy to our lives. You don't always get what you wish for but you do get what you work for. Being negative in life is the enemy to success because you will never grow since something is holding you back. Every time I wanted something in life that was achievable, I planned and worked hard to get it. Stay positive in life and know that hard work will payoff someday. In my opinion achieving something that you worked hard for is more enjoyable than receiving it without any hassle. 

Assignment #3

I took the Love language quiz and my highest score wason Quality time.

Quality Time

In Quality Time, only saying “I love you” is not enough. Quality time means torespect, understand, and feel each other. Being there for this type of personis critical and makes you feel truly special and loved.

1. The result did not exactly match mypersonality because I thought my highest score will be on receiving giftbecause I really enjoy it when someone remembers my Birthday and gives me asmall gift.

2) The new think about the quiz wasthat I never focused on quality time before and it was interesting to see thatmy love language was based on quality time.

3. This was an interesting activitybecause it made me think about my feelings and expectation in a relationship.
