good roommate好室友
Living with a roommate can often seem complicated and overwhelming, especially in college. So just what can you do to be a good roommate?
Firstly, be kind. Sure, you’re both stressed out, have way too much work to do, need to get more sleep, and haven’t had any privacy since the day school started. No matter how stress\tired\annoyed you are, however, you still must be kind. Always.
It’s good to be respectful. Respect comes in all forms in a roommate relationship. Respect your roomie’s need for space and quiet sometimes. Respect the requests your roommate makes of you, even if you think those requests are silly. Respect your roommate’s stuff, an respect them as a person.
To be a good listener is also helpful. Sometimes, your roommate may want to talk to you about something they have going on in their personal life; sometimes, they may want to talk to you about things they’d like to change in the room. And sometimes they’ll communicate a million things to you without opening their mouth.
In addition, being forthcoming with your own needs is just as important as being a good listener. If something is bothering you, talk about it; if you just want some alone time, say so. Roommates aren’t mind readers, so it’s important for you to communicate with your roommate in a genuine, clear, constructive way as often as possible.
Plus, be honest about what you need as a roommate and ask your roommate to do the same. If something happens that will affect your roommate, confess it.
Living with a roommate requires a lot of flexibility as well. Be honest with yourself about what kinds of things you can compromise and bend a little on. You might be surprised by how much you can learn by being flexible and adaptable when needed.
Of course, there are still many other factors to be considered. Just remember it needs a lot of efforts to be a great roommate.
Finding love寻找爱
Many people go to college with the intent to spend the time learning. However, you won’t be going to classes and doing homework all day, every day. What are you going to do in your spare time? College is a great time to start dating, meet new people, and have fun. You’ll meet a myriad of different types of people from all over the world, so why swear off dating with so many options?
One of the best places in college to find someone to date, and possibly love, is in class. You spend a lot of time there, and if they are taking one of your electives it’s probably because they are interested in some of the same things as you. Why not meet up for coffee or something after class and discuss class, life relationships? Maybe you will meet someone in the library, or maybe you’ll hit it off with someone that is in a study group with you. There are so many chances to meet someone you could really connect with when it comes to college and learning.
If you aren’t having any luck meeting someone to at least date in classes, maybe you should start getting out more. You could meet someone at a party, and then you don’t have to worry about seeing someone in class all the time if things just don’t work out. Parties might not be the best if you aren’t into the party scene. You could go to different college events, like protests or concerts, in order to find people into what you have an interest in. If you’re working while you’re in school you might even meet someone through work, whether it’s a co-worker or someone that eats/drinks/ships where you work.
You’re in college; there is no hurry when it comes to finding love. Make your dates more a casual thing. Instead of romantic dinners, try going to lunch or getting coffee together. Go to parties together, or attend other events together. Since you’re a busy college student, casual dating will work out better and it gives you time to get to know one another before you leap into anything serious. And, if the love bug bites you, then you can get more serious and do some romantic dates.
Finding love can happen in college; you just need to make sure it doesn’t take your focus away from classes. You can have the career of your dreams and the love of your dreams too!
love between my parents父母间的爱
Sometimes I really doubt whether there is love between my parents. Every day they are very busy trying to earn money in order to pay the high tuition for my brother and me. They don’t act in the romantic ways that I read in books or I see TV. IN their opinion, “I love you” is too luxurious for them to say. Sending flowers to each other on Valentine’s Day is even more out of the question. Finally my father has a bad temper. When he’s very tired from the had work, it is easy for him to lose his temper.
One day, my mother was sewing a quilt. I silently sat down beside her and looked at her.
“Mom, I have a question to ask you,” I said after a while.
“What?” she replied, still doing her work.
“Is there love between you and Dad?” I asked her in a very low voice.
My mother stopped her work and raised her head with surprise in her eyes. She didn’t answer immediately. Then she bowed her head and continued to sew the quilt. I was very worried because I had hurt her. I was in a great embarrassment and I didn’t know what I should do. But at last I heard my mother say the following words.
“Susan,” she said thoughtfully, “Look at this thread. Sometimes it appears, but most of it disappears in the quilt. The thread really makes the quilt strong and durable. If life is a quilt, then love should be a thread. It can hardly be seen anywhere or anytime, but it’s really there. Love is inside.”
I listened carefully but I couldn’t understand her until the next spring. At that time, my father suddenly got sick seriously. My mother had to stay with him in the hospital for a month. When they returned from the hospital, they both liked very pale. It seemed both of them had had a serious illness. After they were back, every day in the morning and dusk, my mother helped my father walk slowly on the country road. My father had never been so gentle. It seemed they were the most harmonious couple. Along the country road, there were many beautiful flowers, green grass and trees. The sun gently glistened through the leaves. All of these made up the most beautiful picture in the world.
The doctor had said my father would recover in two months. But after two months he still couldn’t walk by himself. All of us were worried about him.
“Dad, how are you feeling now?” I asked him one day.
“Susan, don’t worry about me,” he said gently. “To tell you the truth, I just like walking with your mom. I like this kind of life.” Reading his eyes, I know he loves my mother deeply.
Once I thought love meant flowers, gifts and sweet kisses. But from this experience, I understand that love is just a thread in the quilt of our life. Love is inside, making life strong and warm.
Volunteering abroad 出国做志愿者
Volunteering abroad is something that every college student should do. Not only will you get prepared for entering society but you can also meet incredible people and see parts of the world you may have only dreamed about before. The following are some benefits for you to consider being a volunteer once in college.
Volunteering itself. Being able to help others and have an impact on other people’s lives is incredibly rewarding and powerful. It is no exaggeration to say that this will change your life while changing other people’s lives too. After all, nothing feels better than being able to help those that truly need it.
You will make friends for life. It is common for volunteers to meet their new best friend for life or new travel buddy while they are working on a project. You and all of the other volunteers are there for the same reason, so you already share a bond. This is a bond that will only get stronger and stronger throughout your experience. You will also meet the most incredible local people too. You will become part of a community.
Travel the world. Last but not least, one of the most obvious yet greatest reasons for volunteering in another country is that you get the opportunity to see the world. There are so many countries that need our help. You could help with tackling poverty in rural India or in a number of Southern American countries. If you have always wanted to see a certain part of the world, why not use volunteering to get you there?
As you can see, there are many benefits to gain by volunteering abroad. Not only do you get to explore parts of the world, but it is incredibly rewarding too.
