Wisdom is more scarce than Data

 

Threshold stimulation is the minimum amount of stimulation that your brain requires for it to not start creating its own stimulation in order to concentrate on the task its doing

most known example of it is listening to music while doing something else like studying or working

this is a method to keep yourself concentrated on the task and avoid dozing off, or getting distracted

another thing is playing the radio or keeping the TV on.

 

There are periods of time where I was able to freely concentrate on the task without keeping a threshold stimulation source, and for a long period of time too.

However due to my current job, I can't do that anymore, it's necessary for me to always have somethin to listen to, especially a human voice, I keep listening to standup comedy, radio stations, music in public transportation just to distract myself from the other things I'm doing or thinking about, or in this case to help me think, I also play video games, to help me think because If I stop, I can easily lose track of time and just pass the whole day thinking about the same thing.

 

Has heard that journaling can help in order to organize your thoughts and to keep them in check in a way, so that's what i'm doing on this blog.

I find it very boring to write on a copybook especially that i haven't been using a pen for a while now and a copybook is something anyone can read. Here nobody knows who I am, and thanks to the google algorithm it's hard to find my blog online. so i'll just keep writing

it's also very helpful to have a text online, that you can find easily in the future rather than a copybook that can get old, and would be hard to read later (i can use pictures here too hehehe)

 

 

 

 

 

According to the "Oratrice méanique d'analyse cordinale"

 

I can't say "according to"  anymore..

As specified by "Purina.co.uk", a cat should shower once every 4-6 weeks, But I give my cat a shower once every 15 days because she is nasty... and it's heat time...

I gave both Morticia and Microsoft a shower today and they both hate me equally.

Couldn't give Pinky a shower because he's a senior cat and can easily cut me into 5 pieces with his knife-like nails, which I refuse to trim because he too is in heat and they help him with self-defense against other cats.

 

Keep in mind that Kittens and cats (under 12 months) can be bathed up to every 3 days because of their dirt, and this is conforming to Totobi.pet .

Once they're 12 months or older, they can be bathed once every 3 months to a year. (Totobi.pet)

 

So we good.

 

 

I should be doing bibliography, but I had procrastination for lunch, I'll play some music while reading and i'll write an article about FTIR and XRD analysis to be scheduled for posting for tomorrow morning

I should apply for a post that can end tomorrow, so  I really need to apply omg i just forgot AAAAAAAAAAAAaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa...................Aa..

 

• January 2024 Challenge Update: 

Reading Challenge: Book a week,

 

 

 

I've already read Mercy by Jullie Garwood, Melina, I also read the Confidence Code and currently i'm reading "mein Kampf" in arabic

Reading books in different languages is very refreshing, even though I haven't planned to read anything in French, Nevertheless, Arabic, English and German are already good enough for me

maybe next month i'll include French in my reading challenge

At the beginning of 2024, I decided to do monthly challenges, so at the end of the year i'll finish 12 challenges and one yearly challenge inshallah

 

• Plant Update :

 

The Aloe vera used to look yellow, so I googled that and apparently that's due to excessive watering or excessive sun exposure, so I stopped swatering her and shielded her in my room 

• Yearly challenge Update:

One of my yearly challenges is to try to gain experience points in my field (chemical engineering)

So, I recently applied for an internship in a research and development institute in my country, one of the biggest R&D institutes that work on renewable energy, and I got accepted

I started the internship this week and so far it's good, I learned how to do FTIR  Analysis, which is an analytical technique used to identify organic, polymeric, and, in some cases, inorganic materials. 

I also had the chance to operate in a chemistry laboratoory by myself, to manipulate products, use an Ultrasonic cleaner, use pure acid to clean Metallic substrates, and so far it's been well

Here I am here in the laboratory :

 

 

I usually post updates on my twitter becausee it's easilly accessible with phone, instead of eklablog, I also started posting videos on TikTok

 

 

Oh I found a little tiny starving cat in the institute and I had no food on me omg, nobody had food either

Inshallah someone feeds her until monday, I'll bring some cat food with me and give her some water, she can't eat shit in there, the institute is full of acids and chemical products, it's like an industry.... nothing alive is there.... Inshallah Allah be with her

• Palestine Update :

 

Tunisian tennis player Ons Jabeur says she will donate part of her prize money to PALESTINE in an emotional speech.     #freepalestine #GAZA

 

I literally just wrote a whole post and i lost it ! the article wasn't saved omg

 

I'm doing one book a week challenge , so far i've read 

• mercy
• melina

 

Now i'm reading the confidence code

very good book

i would write another review next time

for now, there is this exercice, to cite 3 things you did good today, for instance, today I

• Took a nice shower, been trying to find time for it for days
• finally cleaned my room
• helped my grandparents take a shower

 

good night ♥

I luckily found a writing challenge, perfect for improving my writing English skills

I can also write when I'm working

here's the list I found

I'll automatically start with the third day to go hand in hand with the photography challenge

First day : Morning Sky

 

 

 

Second Day : City Lights

 

 

Third Day : Shoes

4th day : Something Green (because I already did clouds)

5th day: Breakfast:

7. Coffee: (Hot Chocolate)

8. Top Down Photography

9. Something Yellow

10. Window

11. Blur:

12. Books:

13. Pattern (Bus pattern Here :'3 )

14. Flat-lay Photography

 

15. From a High Angle

 

16. Black & White

17. Animal

 

18. Texture

 

18. A corner

and this one has a story behind it :

For the past months there was a homeless man who lived in the train station, he'd play podcasts on his radio Today I found that most of his stuff disappeared so I asked the lady works there & it turns out that people has collected money 4 him to rent a house photo "the corner"

 

 

and I think I stopped here, I haven't finished the challenge :(

But I had so much fun looking for photo to take during the day and being creative with the angles,

some of the pictures are very beautiful (if you ignore Eklablog's quality), the angles and stories behind them ♥

 

I found on Pinterest a photography challenge, so I decided to follow it for December, it's true that I commenced a little late, on the fifth I guess but oh well better late than never.

These kind of activities help capture small details in our regular days that we don't notice,

they help you remember your life better and capture the very small moments

it also helps develop one's creativity, by thinking about ways to make the photo better, angles to shoot from to have a more unique photo, and how the colors match together to make everything harmonious 

It is also very fun and is a good hobby to have, especially since you don't need to be that good at it, nor compete with other people, but to get inspired by them

I post the pictures I take on a Pinterest board, if you want to see the whole album click here

Here is the List that I'll be following :

Ps: it has been a while since I last posted, I still struggle with routine and discipline and I got used to post my thoughts on Twitter now, since it's more practical

But I love Eklablog, It's been with me since I was a child

 

A lot has been on my mind recently

I talked to the psychologist, and I'm very lucky to have a very good one

I'll probably post what we talked about soon but not right now

I've always had a lined path in front of me, and life is as chaotic as it can be, it's unpredictable and you can't just limit it to one path

maybe some ppl do, but most of us don't

I've studied and did my best but after graduation, I wasn't expecting what was going to happen

the rejection from companies, the obligation to travel far from my family to find a job and not necessarily to a good secure place

the fact that I need the experience to get a job and a job to get experience has totally fucked me up

I'm wasting my youth on social media instead of working hard, I want to work hard and build stuff, but literally, I don't know what I want to build and what I can or should do

I thought about changing careers and trying something in computer science because it's the most successful field right now

but that will take me years and I'll also fall into the circle of job experience thing

I also wouldn't be as good as other younger students

and honestly, I'm not into wasting other years learning and studying and finding nothing at the end

my main goal right now is to leave the country create a future outside of here and be as independent as i can

I would love to do 2 jobs

I'd love to live in a very small apartment with one cat

I'd open the radio first thing in the morning while making coffee, before going to work

I'd feed my cat, kiss her goodbye, and leave for the day

 

 

 

 

 

 

I created my ma-bimbo account when I was 14 years old,

It had 151 levels, and each level came with three tasks that the player needed to finish in order to get to the next level

the tasks varied from buying clothes and furniture to going to the cinema, having pets, traveling, and going to a beauty salon, to dating a guy and breaking up with him, basic teenager/young adult life

my ma-bimbo account was created on 12-12-2011, and on the 14-10-2023 I finally reached the final level 151

feel free to visit my ma-bimbo profile and see all the costumes and trends that Karin has been going through throughout the years.

 

I took this picture right now, I try hard to give my tomatoes the best,

I put used coffee grounds in boiling water and mix it with grounded egg shells, I then let the mixture sit till it becomes cold. then I use that mixture to water all of my plants,

I've read that a plant needs Nitrogen, Calcium, and Potassium:

• the calcium is provided by the eggshells
• the nitrogen by the coffee grounds
• and potassium by potato peels (that I add to the hot water mixture)

 

I generally do compost, whenever my mother cooks and has leftovers, I collect them all, cut them into small pieces dig a hole in the garden, and put them there, I then water it

Springandsoil website has stated that potato peels can take up to 12 weeks to decompose, and 75-80% of decomposition will happen in the first 5-6 weeks, It also stated that the period can vary with how big the potato peels are, so cutting them into fine pieces will certainly help to accelerate the decomposition.It's important to keep in mind that, potato peels are a potential source of fungus, so you should make sure to bury them well into the ground and to heap them frequently (quora)
