There are significant changes in our life that we used to live in the past and the way we live nowadays. These changes are caused by changed generation and technological advancements. I have completed graduation in India in 2010, and I am studying advanced diploma in Canada which differs in many ways.

First of all, In India I have completed Bachelor Degree which was much harder and theoretical. The program comprises of 8 semesters with 6 months in each semester, and there were two exams, one is mid-term and other is final. Secondly, Indian study was quite theoretical and exam oriented, there was no practical knowledge provided which can help student to be successful in the real world. The reason behind this is lack of equipment in laboratories, and laboratory itself undeveloped. Lastly, education system still believes in paper work, there was no e-learning tool. Only, major institutions developed e-learning.

On the other hand, I am pursuing Advanced Diploma in Canada which is subject-oriented and 3 year program with 6 semesters. Each semester consists 4 month, and study as well as test is held on regular basis which ultimately help student to gain the knowledge on time to achieve academic goals. Secondly, Canadian education system counts on practical knowledge, not on bookish knowledge. Here, all laboratories are fully equipped with industrial equipment, new computers and highly qualified instructors. This environment helps students to be successful in particular area of their interest. Last but not least, e-learn has fascinated me by having access any subject anytime anywhere.

All in all, I have studied lengthy, hard, exam oriented, with lack of laboratory knowledge, and without the use of latest technology, while I am studying short, easy, more practically with latest real time equipment, and with the use of new technology.

    The most interesting short stories that caught my undivided attention were: “The Yellow Wallpaper” by Charlotte Perkins Gilman, and “Jealous Husband Returns in Form of Parrot” by Robert Olen Butler. These stories were both fascinating and intriguing in the sense that they made me feel like if I was the actual character. You could feel the pain and anguish the characters felt, even the desperation. It got to a point that I felt pity for the protagonist whom in both stories where narrating. Here we can see how someone can feel so desperate that they think the only way out is by taking their lives. Both Charlotte Perkins Gilman and Robert Olen Butler created an incredible form of fiction that makes you question if the scenes in the stories can truly happen in reality.…

    Everyday, stereotype is used in the society. Sometimes, when people use stereotype on other people, they don’t even recognize it because it’s so common and is ignored by the society. It’s a way to judge people through their common believes based on ethnicity, gender, skin color, appearance and language of the people who are being judged. For example, when people see a Vietnamese woman in her 20’s, 30’s and 40’s just migrated to America, they would assume that she will be working in a nail salon and flirt with some rich guys to get married with. Being stereotype is difficult deal with, and it’s really offended and hurtful. “The Myth of the Latin woman: I Just Met a Girl Named Maria” by Judith Ortiz Cofer and “Mother Tongue” by Amy Tan share some common and different stereotypes that they had to go through. In the story “The Myth of the Latin Woman: I just met a Girl Named Maria”, Judith Cofer wrote about her experiences being stereotyped as a Latin woman. In “Mother Tongue,” Amy shared her personal experiences being stereotyped with her language’s barrier. Even though the two female authors shared the similarity for being stereotyped by the society, they faced different situations on the way they were stereotyped.…

    Although summer and winter both occur when the Earth is titled toward the sun, there are very different seasons. The first and most obvious difference between summer and winter is the weather. During the summertime the days are warm and sunny. Temperatures range from 70° and above with a slight breeze, making it enjoyable to be outside. Toward the end of summer people tend to worry about hurricanes and tornadoes. On the other hand, winter days are cold and dark. There is a constant freezing chill making temperatures drop below zero. Normally there are worries about serious snow storms and blizzards. Another noticeable difference between summer and winter consist of the types of activities people participate in during the two seasons. Summer activities tend to involve being outdoors. For example people enjoy trips to the beach, family cookouts, swimming and even long walks. The sounds of kids riding their bikes and fireworks crackling can be heard throughout the days. However, in the winter people occasionally enjoy outdoors activities like sledding, ice skating and snowboarding. Generally during the winter though, people spend most of their time participating in indoor activities like watching movies, readings books, and baking sweets. For the reason that climates are drastically different during the summer and winter, these is also a huge difference in the way a person is dressed. During the summer people dress lightly, wearing simple t-shirts, shorts, flip-flops, and bathing suits. Hats are typically worn to keep the sun out of people's faces. Since the temperatures are high there is no need for any extra clothing or layering. Unlike while in the winter time multiple layers are worn to keep warm. People dress in heavy sweaters, long pants, thick coats, and boots. Hats are also worn during the winter, but not to block the sun but instead to keep the heat in. Last but…
