168 168 Never Quit

 Nadya Alasad Reviewer: Saliha Karatepeli Now, sir, I finished primary school when I was 12. I asked my father for a bicycle as a gift for graduating  from primary school. I knew he won’t buy it because our financial situation is not so good, he has no money to buy me at least a bike and he’s a nervous, angry man. And yet I plucked up my courage, and asked for the gift.  He said Okay I was very surprised, okay - such sentence from dad. He said Okay, but let’s do this, There’s a construction next door. Go there and find yourself a job, work. Save money, I’ll complete it and well buy the bike. This must be some horseplay! So my friends will play ball in the summer, they’ll knock around and play, while I will work there! I got up in the morning, I said, Okay, I’ll work. I went and immediately spoke with the construction contractor. He said Come tomorrow, well see what kind of job we can find for you. When I left the next day, I had a bucket of lime,  slaked lime and a b...

So funny story, I often leave youtube on in the background while I build lego (I like the background noise). I was building the lego ideas version and the shuffle of one of my playlists took me to this video. And I was like "well that's nice". on the plus side I was able to identify the different parts of the station while I built it. I stumbled upon this channel from my recommended list.  Amazing animations!  Really great work Jared, very well researched and presented.  I had no idea the ISS was that big or had that many modular additions.  I have a whole new appreciation for just how exceptional the ISS is for human achievement. I want to give you a detailed look  at the station. We’re gonna look at each module in the order that they were assembled. The International Space Station, or ISS,  took many years to become a reality. It was never actually built in it original form. There were lots of redesigns, and its funding was almost completely cut by US Con...

There can't be a good morning routine without a good sleep routine. I can't make my morning routine without the proper sleep time and sleep quality. I agree 110%. I used to hate mornings, now I hate not having my me time. I've developed almost the same routine, except mine is two hours and I try to fit in yoga or walking the dog, interchangeably. I started to really value this alone, self nurturing time.  Rushing out the door is starting the day off in chaos. If I'm really short on time, then I choose between journaling, meditating and yoga, whichever I feel I could benefit the most. This routine works great for me when I'm working, but not so great for me when I'm in school, because I'm a late night studier. So I'm going to have to figure out what works while in medical school.  First off: I don't know what's making your content so sassy lately, but I dig it! Keep it up. It's awesome. Over the years I started applying some these routine step...

Words of Kram Ngoy This Brahma song is translated to tell Khmer men and women To be mindful should be diligent. Do not be lazy, do not be too stupid, try to learn numbers, learn the alphabet Learn all the virtues, supernatural wisdom combined with ideas. Born to see through, even from afar           Really good at thinking about everything. Fools do not wake up like blind people on both sides           There is no image of a cheap sinner born ignorant. The human race, though high and low, descended from the Pao clan.           Evil, good, black and white, cut off descendants like ancestors. Ignorant people are not venerated as a religion           The monks know the Dharma, the students study hard. The ignorant breed is not very wise, the crooked breed is not very gentle           Straight seed until the true seed does not disappear. Innoc...

 The broken anchor is pretty sketch. Sounds like the colony might have been wiped out and Smith not wanting to return to England and say "my bad they all died" was able to save face by saying "We have proof they are safe and moved location.  Near the end of the 16th century, a man by the name of John White embarked on a transatlantic voyage. His destination was the island of Roanoke along the southeastern coast of North America. On this island, White had established an English colony some three years before and he was now returning to resume his position as Governor. After a long and difficult journey, White finally reached the site of the colony only to find the more than one hundred men, women, and children had left behind had disappeared. Before White had a chance to conduct a more extensive search, the ship returned to England and in its wake, it left a mystery.  Raleigh was soon thereafter knighted by Queen Elizabeth I and the new land was to be named Virginia in ho...

Let’s get one thing straight here. I like Windows, okay I mean, I’m a nice guy. Like if I saw a Chrome book shivering in the cold as it sat abandoned on a best buy demo rack, I’d feel bad for it. But given that there are Windows laptops and MacBook’s that can do everything a Chrome book can do and more I just haven’t seen any reason why. Yep, that is a complete Windows 10 installation running inside Chrome OS. Absolutely perfect. I like Chrome books now. They’re great. And so is our sponsor. This is the Acer Spin 713. It’s a Chrome book for big kids.  But really the big boy pants that it wears to the party is that it runs Chrome Enterprise, a suite of business focused extra features like advanced security protections and device management. That’s because this unnatural union is actually a result of a partnership between Google and Parallels, the company that’s best known for running operating systems inside other ones using virtual machines.  And what better way than a sweet, ...
