For the past weeks, the two different types of techniques I have learned in Huma 50 class are Dialogue with a symptom/problem and future self visualization. The first technique I want to talk about is dialogue with a symptom/problem. During class, I have wrote down many problems on my notebook that is happening in my life. At first, I definitely having a hard time to write down my problems because I have never write down any problems on to a piece of paper before. I have always keep my problems in my mind to think about. I don't like the fact that when I have too many problems piled up at the same time in my mind, and I have to think of a way to solve those problems. It's always give me a hard time to come up with the best solution that is …show more content…
During class, I imaged myself in the summer and having fun, but before summer, I have to finish my college quarter first. Going through college is stressful for me because this is my first year college, and I don't have the experience at handling it. I have tried to use this technique at home once. I was imagining myself traveling around California. One of my dream is to travel around new places to learn new things. I believes that traveling is a good method to release my stress because I can get myself away from my problems. Just planning a vacation can keep my mind off things that stress me out. Dreaming about where I want to go and what I will do when I get there can take my mind off pressing issues that cause tension and pressure. Vacations are a great way to get with my families to spend time together away from the everyday pressures of our lives. Vacation is freedom because when I on vacation, I don't have any schedules, which means I can sleep in, stay up late and do things when I want to. The whole point of vacation is to get away from a daily schedule. I believe that having a vacation is the most important I want to do in the future. Right now, I feel really stress about school, and I have spend a lot of times worrying about my grade. I definitely need some free times for myself to relax, and I want to have more times with my family. Since the college had started last year, I didn't have enough time to spend with my family. Often times I have to finish my homework and study for quiz or test. In my opinion, school is always the number one cause of the stress. My future self told me that as long as I try my best in school, the result will always be good. Even though I don't have a good grade, I still have another chance to try for it. Using this technique have help me answer some of my questions that I didn't know how to answer it. The lesson I learn from using this technique is

    In Greg Mantsios’ essay, “Class in America-2012”, Mantsios depicts different aspects of social class. It is fair to say that Mantsios is a believer that the rich exploit the poor, and that the rich get richer, while the poor get poorer. In his essay, there are four myths about class in America, ten realities of class in America, and three different profiles of people’s lives since birth, all of whom have different social class levels. Social class categorizes people into upper-call, middle-class, and lower-class, and in Mantsios’ essay, he highlights how social class causes division in the United States while he favors the idea of the radical redistribution of wealth. While Manstios claims that the rich exploit the poor, he does not emphasize…

    Just two weeks ago, I had helped create and co-host a facilitated class for one of my courses based on the doctrines of peer mentoring, called SCIE 511. SCIE 511 itself is a revolutionary class unlike any university courses I have taken before in my life. I find it both radical and empowering to allow the students/mentors take reign over the class for a whole hour, while the professor oversees but does not disrupt the creative process of the students. The class I co-facilitated was based on Jack Mezirow’s theory of transformative learning. Based on the ideas he presented in his paper, the two other mentors in my group…

No group is superior than others, as the PBS film Class Divided experiment conducted by Mrs. Elliot had proven how children are taught to discriminate from such an young age. Agreeing with the textbook, Social Problems, in regards to the harm it can cause, “...larger society is damaged because it misses out on what the victims could contribute; moreover, society is harmed further because racial tensions create conflict that makes the society less productive and harmonious” (Best 5). Grounds: Mrs. Elliot announce to her students both Tuesday and Thursday, reversing the blue-eyes and brown-eyes superiority than the other.

While I was in Elementary, I dreamed of being a chef, a cop, a fashion designer, a softball player, a singer, and an actor.

    Gibbs model of reflection 1 Introduction College life turned out to be much different than what I expected and I was not ready for it even when I thought I definitely was. I was raised in a closely-knit family comprising of my father, mother and younger brother and me. All my life, till the day I left home to start a new chapter in my life, my parents had monitored my every move and essentially spoon-fed me because they wanted the best for and therefore I never really understood what the word ‘freedom’, that my other friends would talk about, meant. From making food, to managing money, my parents had done everything for me to the point that all I had to worry about was managing my studies, in which they also aided me by paying for private tuitions so I could clear the doubts that I had. Life was simple.…
