THE FUTURE...POFHI66, 64 DAYS LEFT


Americans thinks a lot about the future. There are many books, movies, and TV shows about the future. In some of these, the future is a dark and dangerous place. But, in many others, the future is exciting, interesting, and incredible.
Two things are common is most of these visions. First, computers and high-technology are common. Most people believe technology will get better and better. Also, many of these stories take place in space. People fly around in space ships, talk with aliens, and live on other planets.
No one is really sure what the future will be like. But, it's a topic many people like to think about and discuss.

EDUCATION....65 DAYS LEFT

Topic of the day: EDUCATION
Americans go to school for 12 years. Elementary school, junior high school and high school are free. The law say children must go to school. But, when students are 16, they can take a special test. If they pass the test, they can leave high school. Most people graduate from high school when they're 18 years old.
There are many private junior high and high schools, but they are very expensive. Most children go to public schools. All colleges and universities cost money. But, the public schools get money from the government. So, they aren't very expensive. Private colleges and university are extremely expensive.
Junior high and high school students can choose many of their classes. Everyone takes math, English, and science classes. Art, music, dance, and other classes may be taken if students are interested. University students choose most of their classes.

If I can really form a new habit in 66 days!?


Yesterday I read a piece of news about how long it takes to form a habit. I was quite interesed in this as I had the same experience before too. The habit was studying English every day. Before I formed this habit, I just wanted to learn good English. I never thought of how long it would become one of my habit. However, it just happened to me!! I became an English lover and couldn't stopped myself from studying English. I didn't know how long it took me to form the habit. But I liked it!! After all, it was a good habit, an valuable habit for many people who are eager to learn English well. I was happy I did it. And now, after knowing it takes about 66 days on average to form a habit, I am really excited. So, I am planning to form a good habit so as to let it be one of my strangth. My new habit will be writting or typing at least an English article every day on my blog. 66 days, come on, let's start!!
