Hello December!

-

It's a new month and the best month of the year.  Christmas trees, decorations, lights, full of sparkles and songs, I love them all, and that absolutely makes December is my favorite month of the year. I can't believe it's also the end of 2021, but it has been full of amazing adventures and experiences. Every year I mean every end of the year, I look back on what special things happened to me and write about how I learned from those in my journal. By considering it, I make a new plan for the following year about what I can work on or change.  

This year has been pretty challenging for me, to be honest. I'm not always being a good girl; of course, I make mistakes and go through difficult times, which I would never expect to, but the thing is, I know I could do it, and I could make it better next time. My mom always says, "Things happen for a reason, and we just need to accept the way it is." Everything that has happened to me in 2021 has a reason like my mom said.  I had times that I cried, felt down, and was disappointed, but there were also times that I was happier than ever.  All of those build me who I am today, and thank you, 2021, for the lesson.

Project NIM

  Nim was not a human but a chimpanzee.  Could he really be like us? This question was always staying in me during the film. About Nim, he was separated from his mom when he was just two weeks old. What happened to Nim? , what did people do with this little chimp? For this week's blog, I need to post my answers to the guided reflective questions. So here we are. 1. Was there a specific scene that got to you? Describe and explain how it moved you. Nim moved to many places because of people to teach him and money to take care of him. The one place, which I remember it very clear, he was sold for medical research. I was heartbroken to see him putting in a cage and injecting some kind of medicine or whatever. The cage looked as if it were a prison. No one to take care of him or play with him; he was just a research object. I felt like he was looking at us saying..." Please stop it "...    2. What surprised you? Why do you think it caught you off guard? When he act...

Happy Thanksgiving!

Thanksgiving is the best part of November I think. Nothing can be better than meeting your loved ones, having a feast with them, and talking about good things that happened in our lives. I had a really good time with my family, and I'm thankful for everything that I have. I feel blessed and loved so much by these people who are always by my side and support me all the time. I can't imagine what my life would be if they weren't here. Thanksgiving is the day that reminds me how lucky I am to be alive at this moment and living in this world with being surrounded by these lovely and most amazing people who take care of me more than anything. I feel as if I would never repay this much love.  Talking about my family, my father's birthday is the day before Thanksgiving. Since I am living more than 10000 miles away from them, I asked my friend's help for surprising my dad on his birthday. So, I facetimed with my friend, bought some gifts for my dad, and sent her to my paren...

I'm a Mongolian

     Everyone asks me where I came from and then starts to guess some other countries from Asia. Once I answer the question, they get lost or have no idea where that country is or even its existence. For this week's blog, I wanted to write a country that I think can be interesting for our classmates. In my opinion, two out of ten people know about my country, but what they know is only Genghis khan. So, you might get it; it's Mongolia. However, I don't want to write history here to bore you, I just would love to give a little bit of information about my country.       To begin with, I was born and raised in Mongolia, the country is located between two powerful countries, China and Russia. Some people think that Mongolia is part of China, but it's not true. Mongolia is an independent country, and the population is only 3 million who speak Mongolian (native language). The capital of Mongolia is Ulaanbaatar, which is a quite crowded place than the rest ...
