irresponsible teacher

Filed under: Uncategorized — maelaisa at 4:12 am on Tuesday, January 31, 2006

why blame us if we’re lazy? in the first place if i’m not mistaken she owns the crown of being lazy…anyar gayod!!!…she should be ashamed telling our other professor (her replacement for our subject) that we don’t do our work…well…let me enumerate to u guys how lazy and irresponsible she has/was.first thing foremost…if we are late in her class, the more she is!!! back when we had our first major subject handled by her, we were so bootan then…we came on time…and she didn’t…so? what we did was to come to school late…its not easy waiting for someone ryt? and she has this attitude not showing up…second, her lecture notes are terrible…if u get the chance to read it, you’d rather sleep, watch tv or surf the net and forget studying for her exam…and its so wordy…you can even find it the internet…she copied and pasted it and—chadang!!! lecture notes!!!…third, she’s the BEST READER…she made us photocopied her notes for our lecture…when she lectures (if u call it lecture) she ONLY reads what’s on our photocopy…so kinsa pa man ganahan maminaw ana? u know what i did? i told her "Ma’am di na lang ta magclase…kami nalang basa ani ha?"…lami kau sumpayan na og "ginabasa bitaw na nimo kami na lang basa kabalo man mi…insulto na ng imo gibuhat"…but of course i still have respect…good thing she agreed that we wont continue our reading class…ehehehe…third is shes best in no class…did i mention she’s also best in late?…i forgot to write that she was late (as usual) for our field trip! as in…with all gubot pa na hair and sorry2 sa amoa!…kami sab na mga flip nalipay kay di pa diay kami ang late…urgh naa pa xay sampling nga walay claro sa ngatanan!!!…the only good thing i can tell about her is that she gives us food whenever she had this faculty meeting instead having our class…

di man unta mi mang react ani…especially ako…oa baya ko…kaya lang sobra pud na kinahanglan mi nya daoton  sa mo bag-o nga teacher…before she had said that  terrible things bout us she should have reflected how she was as a teacher for us…

i know we are partly to blame (sometimes)…but the point is…teachers are there to train us…to teach us…di kay pabayaan lang mi…basahan og photocopy…nga mura dili mi kabalo og basa…i don’t even have a clue what are the common corals found…and mind you, what she taught was general invertebrates, not marine inverts…kay di intawn xa  mgpakita og mga illustration…she’s style is more on systematics!!…mayo man gud og ana lang pirmi…marine biology is more on assessment…tnawa ra ka!…la man gni nagperform og manta tow sa laboratory!…thank god we had our work at surigao…og dito intawn mi nakurat-kuratan sa mga procedure how to asses marine eco…except for FVC (fish visual census)… cguro nga lazy jud mi…pero rayna siya…hay i dont like to mention na lang what happened to our last sampling…basin og mag hi-blood ko…mag tachycardia lang ko…hahahaha

i hope she would change for the better…change her attitudes and her teaching styles…para di pud mag overpopulate ang mga students like me na way hanaw…og sa uban pang pamaagi makatoon na dapat xa ang nagteach…

insomia…

Filed under: Uncategorized — maelaisa at 12:21 pm on Monday, January 9, 2006

hay…am trying to understand why am having trouble getting some sleep…i have searched yahoo and here’s what ive found out…

causes:

Psychological Causes

In many people, insomnia can be the result of:

  • Anxiety, a condition in which individuals feel increased tension, apprehension, and feelings of helplessness, fear, worry, and uncertainty. This may be due to the effects that other people at work have on us, financial worries, concerns over relationships outside work or numerous other causes.
  • Stress, or how effectively a person copes with any emotional, physical, social, economic, or other factor that requires a response or change.
  • Depression, a mood disturbance characterized by feelings of sadness, despair, and discouragement.

In addition, a lack of a good night’s sleep can lead to these very same psychological problems, and a vicious cycle can develop. Professional counseling from a doctor, therapist, or sleep specialist can help individuals cope with these conditions.

Physical CausesTemporary Events Or FactorsPhysical Relaxation Mental Relaxation Other Techniques

The physical causes of insomnia include the following:

  • Hormonal changes in women. These include premenstrual syndrome, menstruation, pregnancy, and menopause.
  • Decreased melatonin. The levels of melatonin, the hormone that helps control sleep, decrease as a person ages. By age 60, the body produces very little melatonin.
  • Medical conditions. These include allergies, arthritis, asthma, heart disease, high blood pressure, hyperthyroidism, and Parkinson’s disease.
  • Pain. Pain and discomfort from a medical illness or injury often interfere with sleep.
  • Genetics. Problems with insomnia do seem to run in some families, although researchers have yet to identify how genetics play a role.
  • Other sleep disorders. These include sleep apnea (in which one temporarily stops breathing during sleep) and periodic leg and arm movements during sleep (in which one’s muscles excessively twitch or jerk).

Short-term insomnia can be linked to events and factors that are often temporary, such as:

  • Adjustment sleep disorder. This form of sleeplessness is a reaction to change or stress. It may be caused by a traumatic event such as an illness or loss of a loved one, or a minor event such as a change in the weather or an argument with someone.
  • Jet lag. Air travel across time zones often causes brief bouts of insomnia.
  • Working the night shift or long shifts. Individuals who work at night and those who work long shifts may have trouble adjusting their sleep habits.
  • Medications. Insomnia can be a side effect of various medications, both prescription and over-the-counter.
  • Overuse of caffeine and alcohol. Caffeine most commonly disrupts sleep. While a drink or two before bed may help a person relax, more than that can lead to fragmented sleep and wakefulness a few hours later.
  • Environmental noise, extreme temperatures, or a change in a person’s surrounding environment.

treatment:

If you are anxious about falling asleep, certain muscles in your body become tense and sometimes painful, interfering with sleep. Physical relaxation techniques can help.

Find a quiet, peaceful place in which to practice the following technique about 30 minutes a day:

  • Lie perfectly still until you find the most comfortable position for yourself. Now deliberately tense up the muscles in your arms and legs as tightly as you can. Try to hold this tension for about a minute and then let the muscles relax gradually-first your legs, and then your arms.
  • Now let your whole body feel as relaxed as it possibly can. Take a rest for five minutes and then repeat the procedure twice more.
  • At the end of the session, try to concentrate on the feeling of your muscles and let them go as limp and relaxed as possible for the rest of the period. Try to make your breathing slow and steady as you relax.

This technique is designed to teach individuals how their body relaxes and how to control relaxation and tension.

Since stress and worry, including the worry about not being able to fall asleep, are often at the core of insomnia, many people have found that mental relaxation techniques can help them to feel less anxious and therefore sleep better.

This method also requires finding a peaceful, quiet place to practice this technique for about 30 minutes a day:

  • Try to relax your body first, by finding the most comfortable position for yourself. Then empty your mind of all thoughts by concentrating on one particular object in the room or a particular part of the room.
  • After a minute, sit up, and then walk around for a bit. Then return to your position and repeat the exercise.
  • Now think of a particularly happy time in your life that you really enjoyed. If you cannot immediately think of something, find a poster of some exotic place or beautiful scenery. Concentrate on imagining yourself in this place for about five minutes.
  • Try to feel the sensations first in your neck muscles, and then in your arm and leg muscles, as they gradually become relaxed. After another few minutes, get up and walk around the room a bit. Then repeat the process.

This exercise differs from the physical technique in that it emphasizes controlling the psychological components of anxiety before attempting to relax your body.

Other relaxation techniques to try include:

  • Yoga or meditation
  • Exercise (shown in studies to be an effective way to achieve a healthy sleep)
  • Mind-body therapies such as guided imagery or hypnotherapy
  • Reading while lying in a relaxed position
  • Listening to music while lying in a relaxed position
  • Having a soothing bath or shower before bed
  • Massage, especially of the neck, shoulder, and leg muscles
