SEMESTER PAPER
One of my key interests for the second semester of the year 2020-2021 is nutrition. I will say I have connected with this subject. I am interested in nutrition, and I believe it is vital. At the beginning of this year, I knew a few facts and studied on my own, but the OSLA program helped me learn the depth of nutrition to then be able to inform myself, colleagues, and future members of the OSLA program. I do plan to continue my learning next semester. I want to know what nutrients, minerals, vitamins can do for your body and how your body takes these different types of benefits. I want to connect the body and health, and then see where I go from there.
I unequivocally can state that I have completed the hero's journey. At the beginning of this journey, I learned about the hero's journey how it is a template created by Joseph Campbell in which one goes on an adventure and comes back transformed or changed. At the beginning of my journey, I was a bit frightened but eager to be learning a different method, nonetheless. So I can say it was easy in the beginning. After a while, it can get tiring, but you need to do what you need to do, thankfully I had a helper/mentor, Dr. Preston. I often found myself stuck on what I should write or say, but I had my teacher, Dr. Preston to help me and support me when I felt unmotivated. There were also temptations, such as plagiarizing my masterpiece. When I don't know what to do and feel like giving up, I turn to plagiarize to get things done quicker. I wanted a fresh start. It was the beginning of the year, I was learning differently than what I was used to, and I also wanted to change how I write. As the days go by and the end of this semester is coming to an end, I can see my growth both mentally and in school, and that is what made me a hero.
In your average classroom, it's structured in a way where we have no choice what we want to lean, what we would rather do, we may even feel like we can't raise our hands because then the teacher will yell at us for not understanding what she just said. My colleagues did deserve the choices given to us it and we sure did honor it. When we give choices you show that you trust them. All of my colleagues presented masterpieces by our key interests chosen by ourselves in the beginning of the second semester. I believe OSLA is a lot more successful than a regular classroom. At the end of the day your basic regular classroom has students who feel drained, guilty, terrible about their learning. How do you know this for a fact? I know this for a fact because that was me. I got to see year after year how everyone is not learning anymore but just completing the work needed no matter how they got their answers, trying to pass each class for a piece of paper. OSLA embraces mistakes, and doubts. When we learn it is inevitable that we are going to feel stuck at some point, with OSLA you will never feel if whether you should ask a question because we learn its ok to ask questions, be curious about the world, and learn learn learn!

We need to be exercising at least thirty minutes per day. If you work in an office or are a student on a computer for more than seven hours, I recommend trying the Pomodoro technique, getting up for five minutes every twenty-five minutes, to stay focused. It doesn't matter what you do, as long as you get up and walk around. If you are sitting, be sure to always maintain a good posture.
How often do you hear people complain about learning high school math? I know many adults that tell me they haven't done any high school math since high school. And I know some are doing very well, succeeding and thriving that don't use math, BUT others are stuck working as a cashier at McDonald's. Calculators are a HUGE help in todays society but only to those who need them, and I don't have anything against calculators, I love them. I sometimes use them myself, but here's why I try to stay away from them. I remember seeing my second-graders peers secretly using those calculators for their test that don't do well with high school math. It's always great to challenge your mind, and math is the perfect way to do this. Algebra 2 is critical and necessary to graduate, and when you graduate with a diploma, you get a little bit more job offers, so you aren't stuck working as a cashier counting money for the rest of your life.
A good baker takes into account what the weather is like. The humidity level in your indoor air affects the moisture balance in a recipe whether your baked goods fall flat, are too dense and chewy, or too dry and crumbly. Dry ingredients like flour, sugar, and salt will absorb moisture at a high humidity level. When humidity is low, they’ll get drier. For perfect cakes, cookies, and other holiday treats, you may need to increase or decrease the amount of liquids in the recipes, adjust the baking time, or keep your indoor humidity level under control. Humidity comes from water evaporating from lakes and oceans.
The chocolate chip cookie was invented in 1938 by Ruth Wakefield. She said, "We had been serving a thin butterscotch nut cookie with ice cream. Everybody seemed to love it, but I was trying to give them something different. So I came up with Toll House cookie." She admitted that it was an accident and expected the chocolate to melt but it didn't. And that's how chocolate chip cookies were invented!

Las chispas de chocolate fueron inventadas en el año 1938 por Ruth Wakefield. Esto dijo,"We had been serving a thin butterscotch nut cookie with ice cream. Everybodyseemed to love itbut I was trying to give them something different. So I came up with Toll House cookie." Que se traduce, estábamos sirviendo una delgadita galleta de nuez con nieve, todos lo amaban pero trate de darles algo diferente. Y así cree la galleta de Toll House.
Necesitamos entrenar por lo menos treinta minutos cada diá. Si está trabajando o eres estudiante que se sienta por más de siete horas recomiendo levantándose por venticinco por cinco minutos, lo importante es de que mueve. Y cuando se siente, asegurase de siempre mantener una buena postura.
Un buen panadero esta atento de como esta el clima. El humedad nivel adrento de tu cocina afecta lo que hornas. Los secos ingredientes como harina, azugar, y sal absorban humedad. Cuando el humedad es baja se secan. Por los perfectos pasteles, gallletas, y otros cosas vas a necesitar alomejor incrementar o ajustar el amounto de liquido en la receta. La humedad viene de agua evaporando de oceanos y lagos.
Cuanta veces has eschuhado gente que se queja de estar prendiendo matematicas advancadas? Conozco mucha adultos que me cuentan que no han usado matematicas de highschool desde que estavan en la highschool. Y tambien se unos que estan bien, de dinero y prosperos, Y tambien conozo de otros que se quedan trabajando como cajero en McDonald's. Desde que nos introducerion los caluladores han asido un grande ayuda pero nomas lo que los necesita. Y no tengo nada de contra de calculadores, yo pienso que son genial y salvan tiempo, pero cuando tengo opcion trato de eligir usando matematicas por papel y lapiz. Esto ayuda que no se me olvide que es 8 mas 9. Recuedo ver mis companeros y companeras usuando secretamente el calculador. Y ahora estan luchadando mas de lo que necesitan en sus clases de matematicas. Algebra 2 es critical y neccesario para graduarse y obtener su diploma. Asi puede agarrar un poqo de mas oppurtunidades de trabajar so no se quede trabakando como cajero, cantando dinero por el resto de tu vida.
