What did I learn in this course

This course was very useful to me that improved my skills and I learned many different words. Moreover, we did a lot of exercises such as, listening, reading, writing and speaking. Working with group team it wasn't that much good. Because, everyone care about theirselves. To me I prefer to work by myself to improve my English skills. Because, when I work with other students they didn't let the other students to do the work with less discussions. I really enjoyed in this level because, I have a great teachers. Before I enter this class, I wasn't have enough background about IELTS. But, with my great teachers they taught me everything about IELTS that helped me to do the exam. Also in writing the sir always gives me his feedback about my writing that can improve my writing skills to not repeat the same mistakes. I think this course was very important for me, because if I pass this level I will inter to general. So, I have to work hard to pass this level.    

This course

In this course we studying in level 8 and it is a good and exciting level more than anyone because that is the final or last one. Then we will go to study in the general courses which are a new, different and hard. There are two teachers teach us in this level who are mr. Robert for grammar and writing skills and mr. Michel for reading and speaking skills. However, this course is includes and focus on writing and speaking skills so that help us to improved in our skills. Also, we should do and take the  ILETS exam which is determine the level of our english if we bad, good or perfect and most of the students got 5 or 5.5 score. After that we do the ISP that is the presentation work of the students in what they learn during the course or in specific topic associated with the lessons. Finally, we learn and knew many good things and we hope to help us to be perfect in the second and the international language which is the English.   

My online friend

Hey !! 

This is our last blog we going to do , so I wanted it to be something different maybe .

I'll talk about my online friends and my experience of having one . First of all , I wasn't allowed to use the internet until I'm 15 , so at the age of 15 I started to use MSN . I didn't really have  people I don't know In MSN so I didn't really meet anyone from other countries . However last year I made an account on Instagram and in my bio I had my kik . That's when I had my friend online friend sam ( Samantha) she is half American and half Japanese , she's 14 but when we start talking the first time she told me she's 16 for some weird reason but I remember her crying while texting me saying  that she actually lied and actually 13 and i didn't mind her lying to be honest because she respected me and accepted me for being Muslim and never made fun of me or send hate like how others  did on the intern   . After months of us talking and exchanging funny videos we decided to Skype . She's not allowed to neither do I , but we did it anyway and it was so awkward but we are over that and we snapchat all the time and make funny faces . (That's shows how we are comfortable with each other )We are friend for 1 year now and I can see that it will last longer . 

My favourite restaurant

Mzlai restaurant is one of my favourites restaurants in Abu Dhabi. I have visited many resturand around the gulf area, Mzlay has always been at the top of the list for many reasons. Starting with its unique name, its the traditional emarati term for door lock. It serves a various of delicious local dishes such as Freed, Hrees, Bryani and machboos. Head chef Ali Salem, makes the perfect traditional dishes such as Madfoun, btheet, chbab, and shrimp hamsa. Each dish is well made with fresh ingredients which you can taste with each bite. Mezlai staff are not only dressed up like locals, but they are so genuinely friendly. They truly represent the Arabian hospitality. The Emarati cuisine goes perfectly with the restaurant atmosphere. The welcoming staff will show you around a different setting areas indoors and outdoors. The traditional Emarati theme live up to the Emarati culture because its tastefully arranged. It was the perfect restaurant to spend my last birthday in. I ordered the shrimp hamsa along with beryani rice. It was perfect. I went outdoors to enjoy the traditional tea " Karak" near the fountain. It was a great getaway since its so quite. I will defiantly visit Mezlai again to try the rest of their well loved dishes. 

Level 8

In the beginning of the course I was unblessed about my situation because I shouldn't miss my equivalency exam. But when I attend the first class and I see that my old classmates are with me I really accept the class and the fact that I skip my equivalency. 

The whole course was amazing, even our study time. In this course I had a two of the good teachers and I improved in several sides in english. One of the best things in these two sires is the sense of humor that make the lesson more fun. My grades in this level are good but I am worried about the final exam and I am just rowing my life with the feeling that am going to fail in the level.

In this level I did had a lot of time full of information and joyful. It was a nice level but am glade that am didn't pass it. 

My dream job

Job is a very important thing in our lives. I want to be a nurse since I was a child. I always saw an amazing movies about good doctors and nurses. It is my dream job. I like to be a nurce for different reasons. First reason is I like to study medical sciences so much. It is something I think I will feel happy when I study it.

VINE

Vine is an app on any smartphone and iPads. You can watch all kinds of videos in this random app. It has a lot of categories like comedy, art and experimental, animals, family, beauty and fashion, food, health and fitness, nature, music and news. I always pick comedy cause they make me laugh till my stomach hurts. I think US teenagers use it the most because they're in every video. Those teenagers become famous from their funny videos. Everywhere I go they keep asking me if I know this app or not. Its spreading all over the world. If I was sad or feeling bad I just enter vine to watch funny videos to turn my mood up and laugh instead of feeling down. Sometimes I use it to see some art cause it has amazing artists. Every video is maybe 8 seconds long. I'm glad vine app is popular because its an epic one.    

This course

This course was different course the the other levels. It was easy but at the same time difficult. At the beginning i felt relive because i saw my friends who was with me in level 7 and its good because i know them and they are so kind.This course was difficult because of the vocabulary, the words were new and the spilling it kind of hard.In this course we took reading practice, listening and writing for the ILETS. The worst thing in this course for me was the LDA, I don't know why was it hard for me, and i didn't answer it well and even my grades were bad. But the good thing is the ILETS, because of Mr.Robert and Meachal the exam was good because they helped and teach me how to have good writing, also the listening i think i did it very good because of Mr. Robert he told me to say stories and talk more to have good grade. The course didn't finish, but I hope I can pass it with having the ILETS.

Famine

Famine is the result of a process of free market.It is a huge issue to talk about the scarcity of food is a really big deal.famine is considered the case of increasing death rates.Millions of people are dying each year.It a serious humanitarian crisis that we hear about specially in Africa.Woman,men even children are loosing their soul. There are lots  of victims  of food crisis which is threatening  thousands of people.Health problem are increasing children are suffering.Africa is drowning help is needed in short time quick as possible.It's scary how does every year, 15 million children die of hunger.Hunger is the single biggest solvable problem facing the world today. 2.6 billion people live on less than $2.00 a day, meanwhile the average American lives on $130 a day and that is a fact from lots of studies done.People should think wisely about finding a solution.However, the bigger the problem gets there is a limit to stop.Shelters,food,water and clothes must be provided quickly for those poor people.A series plan should be made for Africa to survive.Famines reduce the size of the population,so to increase the size of the population food must be available.To find improvement or a change support from international aid agencies and red cross must take an action.They can make a difference as a volunteer to help them stay alive.

Best holiday ever.

I did many things in the holiday and I'm going to talk about a few things. First, the best thing in my holiday was when my best friend came from U.S. For example, when she came, we went to the beach and we had a lot of fun together. Secondly, my relatives and I had a BBQ party. One day my family and I were so bored and we wanted to do something special or different and then we decided to have a party. Moreover, my friends and I went to the mall and we do thing together such as, shopping, watching a movie and while we were eating dinner we were talking about funny things. I had a lot of fun with them. It was the best holiday ever because I was with my sisters, friends and I saw my best friend and I was with her all the time until she went back to U.S.

School

Graduating from the school was what i wanted the most in the school days. I wanted the days to pass quickly. The days where passing slowly in the first term but then it statred to pass fast, i was happy but at the same time sad because it is the last year wih my firends, also because were are not going to be together as much as school days because we are going to different places to study. Sure we are going to meet each other , but not as before,we were spending most of the time with them in the class, breaks , and also in our projects. not just that also we were doing the same jackets with our names, signs amd seniors 2013. A the last term we were making a memories to rember. When the teacher punish one girl we all laugh and took photo of her or video and she dosen't know that , also when someone fall or someyhing funny happy the camera is always their. Before the last day, we did a movie that talks about our days at grade 12. All the pictures and viedios were their some of the girls we crying and some were lughing but it was really the best days ever.

My family

My family is my life. They let me feel very happy by just having them around me. I live with my mother, father, and my sibling. I have 3 sisters and 2 brothers. My biggest sister is married and she's studying and working in the same time. She's my biggest sibling and she and I are very closer to each other than the other, we share our problems together and have a lots of funny moments. On the other hand, my second sister is very calm and kind of lonely. However, she's very kind and she forgives me a lot when I do something wrong to her. We live in villa that contains 7 rooms and 3 living rooms and kitchen also swimming pool. Lately, we transfer to this house and we feel very comfortable in it than the previous house.  

My second brother

I am first daughter in my family. And I have 5 brother younger than me and no sister. I will talk about my second brother who is Abdullah because I think he is my best friend in the house. I like and love all my brothers but I like him more than the others because he is helpful person. He always helps me if I need it like when I study or when I do my home works and projects. Moreover, he usually understand me and listen to my problems and helps me to solve it. If we have free time, we spent our times to do some activities like playing football, watching movies and go outside. Abdullah always respect me because I am the big sister. Sometimes, he makes me laugh with his jokes. He is good and smart student. He is study in ATHS in Mohammed bin zayed city. So that's why I like my second brother so much.    

IELTS

Yesterday was my first IELTS exam, and It was really horrible. I was afraid of the exam. I arrived there at 7:30 am and our exam was at 8:00 am, so I was on time. However, we started about 10:30 am. We started with the listening and I missed the last part. I don't know why, but I was really nervous and afraid. I didn't know what to do. I wrote things from my mind. After that we did the reading. The time was not enough for me. I was on the first page and it took me 20 minutes to answer one question and I'm not sure about it. I decided to move on and just answer the questions. I don't know but I feel that I didn't do very well because I just chose the letters without knowing what I'm doing. The last part is the writing, but It was fine. I did it before the time finished. However, when I finished the exam I felt like I could have done better and maybe I wrote about something they did not ask about or my opinion was not good enough. I feel so sad and I hope that I will pass the exam even with 5. I will be happy and satisfied.

Pilot

Being a pilot isn't just about transforming people from country to country. Its about being so full of courage to drive planes that are full of people who put their life in risk just to travel from a place to another. A pilot should be trained for years just so the airways can trust them to transform those who need to travel. Its about having the strength and being a pilot has a lot of benefits. The benefit is to help people to travel from a long distance place to another because they can reach those places in a short amount of time instead of riding trains, cars and busses that takes hours to reach to a certain country or a place. I picked this career because it benefits me in a lot of ways such as getting a high salary that can help me live a better life and to travel to countries that I never been to.

Gardening

Gardening is a hobby and not everyone would like to have this kind of hobby. However, having a garden is always good in many aspects. You would have a beautiful garden near you with lots of flowers and plants, that would make your surrounding look great . Having good and fresh air, would be more eco-friendly and provide space to other living creatures too.It is really nice to be in the garden during the early mornings and evenings. Lots of fresh air and wonderful scented smell from the flowers fill the air and make it really great. When we spent some time in the garden, it make us feel so fresh that we could start any work with lots of energy and a fresh mind.No matter what the end product is, gardening is a stress reliever and a wonderful time pass.

My family

I life with my both parents.Also, i have four sisters and 4 brothers.Last week my oldest brother got married .I think  living with family area has a lot benefnts .Foe example they help you to solve your problems and tell you the right thing to do .Inadition, i agree that you cant live without your family because they are always by your side no matter what you did. I really thank my god for having them in my live and hopeing i dont wanes a day without them .Two month ago my father had an accident and he heart his back .He stayed at the hospital for three week and he couldn't move until now .Sometimes i feel so responsible to my youngest sisters and i have to help the when they need it .My mother don't work even she want to but she take her children in first place.        

Mum

Mum means the world to me.she is the light to my path that's why we'll never be apart.She knows how to cheer me up,and let me forget about my problems.People wonder why are mothers important,they should notice that without them we wouldn't be breathing right now.Mothers are supportive,forgiving,emotional and loving and thats why they're important to us.My role model in life is mum,because she have done alot to gain the respect she has right now.To mum i'll always be her little angel.When she is around there's no where else,i'd rather be.I think every mum should be treated right because she is valuable and we couldn't replace her.I thank god for having my mun and i wouldn't replace her for the whole world if i could.

Dreams

Once i had a nightmare , like 1 month ago .That I'm at my cousins . It was night time and I'm alone up stairs , so I decided to look  for everyone but no one was around . I went down and still couldn't fine anyone around then i started to panic calling everyone but no response . I started to run around their house screaming and calling and it was so dark I had to feel the walls to find the door . I found the main door and went out and there's no one but me , there were no life or human being but me . There were no sounds of kids or even cars , it was quiet that I felt my ears were about to explode and I keep screaming and shouting for someone , anyone . I really felt the need to me next to someone , but all what I've  heard  is the sound of my own voice.

I remember when I woke up I were alone on my bed . I thought the dream was real . I ran down stairs so fast to find my family all gathered eating fruits ...I felt so safe again .

It takes me few minuts to realize that I'm not dreaming.

And actually I were sick that day .

Sleep deprivation

Every creature in this world needs to sleep, so the human body needs a certain amount of hours to get rest. Children should get 10 hours of sleep, and it gets lower when you grow up which means an adult should have 7-8 hours of sleep. If the human body dose not get enough sleep, that may affect the performance of the body negatively. There are many people these days who suffer from sleep deprivation either at school or work.

The human-being nature force us to get rest to work appropriately, sleep deprivation can happen because of using phones and watch TV instead of sleep and don't have much time to finish the tasks. So suffering from sleep deprivation can lead to serious  health and behavior problems, which is going to affect badly on the performance of the body.  To avoid sleep deprivation take the phones and TVs out of the bedroom and organizing the day time.

My addicton.

My phone is my only route to the social network. Its a device that can lead to a lot of problems but it can be solved by using it in the right way or planning to use the phone in the right amount of time. Some of the people make the phone something beneficial thing for the society. In my experience I use the social network like instagram and twitter to see some exercises so I can do them at home instead of going to the gym everyday. This is a perfect way for me to contact my friends and to meet some new friends but having new friends has limits. My phone is literally my main addiction cause its the only way I can stay in touch with the world. I can't ever live without my phone. I know it sounds funny and kind of creepy but its the only thing I depend on in life.   

chocolate

Chocolate is food that made of seed of a tree called theobroma cacao. Now you can see chocolate in almost all desserts such as candy , pudding, cakes and crepes. There are many types of chocolate but the most commons are milk chocolate, dark chocolate and white chocolate. People like chocolate because of its taste and think it has many calories, however they do not know that chocolate actually has so many benefits, the most important one is that it prevents heart-attacks and many similar health problems. Also it makes people more happier and reduce stress. New study says that it protect us from the sun. In Addition it raise people IQ. On the other hand Eating large amounts of chocolate can do more harm than good, no matter how good it tastes. The effect of eating too much chocolate is calories. Other side effects include dental problems related to the high sugar content. Its good to eat chocolate  from time to time but not to over eat it.

My best friend

I have a lot of friends and I have six best friends but there is one of them who I adore the most. Dana is my best friend who I can not live without. She is 18 years old. She studies in HTC. I met her in grade ten. I know her since 2010. She is so lovely. I love her because she always tries to make me happy. When I need anything she is the one who helps me. She is always here when I need her. She is the best. She cares about me and she always asks about me. We study in two different places but we always see each other and connect with each other. I am happy that I have her in my life. She means a lot to me. I wish that I can keep her for along time and I wish that I can make her happy like she always does. 

Funny

I laugh when something is funny, and many things make me laugh a lot and make me happy. First, I laugh when I see a comedy movie. For example, five years ago I was in Marina Cinema with my friends and we saw an Egyptian movie. It was a funny movie. And we laughed a lot. Also, I laugh when I see someone fall. When someone falls, I can't stop laughing. It is an embarrassed situation and I laugh so much. I remember the first day in Zayed University when my best friend fell because she didn't sea the doorstep. The other thing I laugh about is a jocks with my family. I laugh when I sit with my family because we tell each other funny stories, and my father tells us stories about when he was a child. He has very funny stories and he makes me laugh. When I see funny things I laugh a lot.

Best friend

Most of people are able to have hundreds of friends. But there is only one friend who really has a big part in your life, that is a best friend. My best friend is the person who shares the wonderful moments with me. Her name is Amal Mohammed. She is 19 years old. Her birthday on January. She lives in AlAin and studies in United Arab Emirates university. She wants to live in a quit and simple life and she want to be engineer in the future. Amal knows many things about me ,also she knows when I feel happy and when I feel sad. However, she knows how to comfort and help me. She is like me and I am  like her. We understand each other and we will always do,because we know each other very well. Also we will always stay together. Amal is a nice and lovely person. The best friend who is be able to share, support and love her partner. 

Positivity

  In life you may experience many problems and bad situation. Nevertheless, you should always look at the brighter side of things. Some people choose to reflect on the negative instead of the positive, which causes things to look worse than they may seem. Your happiness is based on how you look at situations. I believe that staying positive is one of the main keys to success and happiness.A person who has a positive attitude doesn’t let everything, effect there mood. They always look for the good in situations. They may also try to turn negative situations positive. People with positive attitudes are focused, less stressed and seemingly wiser. People who stay positive are more open and willing. Positivity makes everything seem better and is emotionally needed to deal with life. Being a positive person, or being around one, can cause you to be happier and actually brighten up your mood or day. One thing about becoming a more positive person is you have to learn how to react to certain situation and keep a steady positive attitude.

My birthday

Thinking about the past remind me of a lot of memories. One of the best memory is my birthday, we were on our way to study chemistry every thursday in other school. It was the next day of my birthday and we were in bus sitting and chatting. Suddenly all the girls started to come and sit back with us. My best friend came and she was holding cake and they all started singing so i sang with them without knowing for who. While we were singing i asked my friends who's birthday is today and she said that its for you. At this moment i felt like i want to jump from the bus because i felt so shy. Then they started to but some of the cake on my face and it was cold because it was half ice cream and we ate it all together and it was the best birthday ever with my classmates.

Weird things

Nowadays, weird means  perfect to teens.people can be weird in lots of ways and it can be noticeable.It's amazing how can a silly action even a crazy thing can spread,so quickly.I believe that,the cause of it has spread,because of the new generation mind open.It considered a great thing,but it some time get's over the edge.weird things are fun to do spicily around beloved ones.To enjoy the moment and feel like you don't care.Weird things are what you can do crazily and not infront of every one else.Just to forget everything and live the moment.

Colors can change your mood.

Colors in general have different meaning in my feelings and in my nature. First, colors in the house can effect my feelings. For example, if the living room have a light colors it can effect my feelings in a good way and makes me feel calm and relaxed. Secondly, colors in my clothes can effect me and change my mood in a good or bad way. For example, if I'm not in the mood I prepare to choose the blue or black in my clothes and everything around me, because these colors have an amazing memory in my life. Also, because my best friend like these colors and every time when I wear these colors in my clothes I remember the good time I spent it with her and it makes me feel happy and I feel that she's around me. Finally, I think that the colors effect my emotions and can change my feelings from sadness to happiness or from nervous to comfortable.
