My first optional assignment.

For this optional assignment, I decided to watch an episode of big bang theory to catch new words and practice my listening skills.

The episode S1E4 is about Sheldon getting fired because he is rude to his boss and he is really annoying Penny because he is trying to control what she buys and he is trying to do research on a luminous fish than Leonard called Sheldon's mother to come and help Sheldon, Leonard is concerned about him. His mother tells Leonard to go back and talk to his boss to get his job back, and he got his job back because of his mother.

What I learned- I learned a few new words; here they are

Spelunking is another word for caving - hellaskoðun
Anecdotes- Saga / tala um einhvern
Bowel - Þarmar
sonic - hjóðlægt

And I practiced my writing skills and listening skills.

My Second optional assignment.

For this optional assignment, I decided to read an article on Fox News because I like to read articles.
Here is the link to it
https://www.foxnews.com/us/florida-mom-tracey-rieker-missing-body-pond

It is about a missing woman that disappeared last month, and the police found her body in a car in a pond. She was a 44-year-old mother of 4. She left the house while her husband was still sleeping and left without her phone and wallet.

What I learned from reading this article is. I learn new words.

Pond - tjörn
Submerged- Kafi
Deceased - látinn
religious outreach -trúlega útrás

I practiced my reading skills in the assignment I chose.

My third optional assignment.

For this assignment, I decided to watch the movie Rocketman.

The movie Rocketman is about the life of Elton John. It begins when he is little and ends when he gets sober. It shows that he had a really hard life until he got sober, when he was a little boy he did not have parents that really cared for him and when he got older he was an alcoholic and a drug attic and was scarred from his past. He then got a boyfriend and they seemed happy at first but it turned out that his boyfriend did not love him, he also tried to kill himself. But in the end, he got sober and lived a happy life. He got a husband and two kids.

What I learned is to listen and understand and also listen to the accent. I also learned about Elton John's life and it surprised me a lot because I did not know anything about him but I thought he had just lived a really good and happy life but the movie shows the opposite and that it can be really hard to be so famous.

Here I have a Diary.

In my diary I think what I have learned the most is from vocabulary because when I am watching a movie I sometimes hear words that i have learned from vocabulary that I didn't know before. Also I think I have improved my writing skills. I have learned much from the history of the world. But my weakness is to read and answer questions after I'm not good at doing that and I think I have to practice and improve my skills there. I think I am quite good at doing grammar. I was really stressed about that but I was better than I thought I'd be. The i assignment i think is most challenging is reading and doing the questions afterward. The most fun task is watching the history of the world and doing the assignment after that because I really like watching the tv show I learn so much from. I always try to do my best but lately I have been in a hurry to try to finish all of the assignment and I have to stop that and give myself more time to do it well. I could think one thing about this course it would probably be to not have the questions that say which of the following statements are true because that is my biggest weakness hehe. My study habits have been horrible throughout this course I have almost always been in a struggle to finish all of my assignments but that is mostly because I moved from Iceland to Denmark at the begging of this semester and I had two kids at home one five-year-old and one baby that just turned one so that was pretty hard but now the 5 year old is in kindergarten and is easier now but then we bought a house so I'm moving again but it will all be over soon so I think the next semester will be a lot easier and that I can be more organized. But I want to improve my reading skills more.

Breaking news.

New information of covid-19 in the United States says there can only be ten people together in the same house from the first of December and until the third of January. So Christmas this year is going to be pretty hard.

So it's better to be safe than sorry. Try to enjoy the holidays this year together on skype or facetime. And the new information about the vaccine is that it is hopefully going to be on the market soon after new year and that it will cost around forty dollars.
