My Changes Towards Reading
Ever since I began taking English 25, my attitude towards it has changed a lot. It has changed because before it was difficult for me to read English and understand it at the same time and now I can do both. Now when I read an article, book, or a magazine I pay more attention at the characters and at the main idea. I can distinguish between the main idea, and the supporting details. I also understand the vocabulary more, and how to analyze a book. At first my reading level was low because it was very hard for me to read fast and now my reading level is better. Taking this class has helped me in many ways. It interested me in books more because now I can understand them easier. In addition, my experience in this class is very pleasing because the teacher is trustworthy and has a great persona. Also, my classmates are easy to get along with and admirable. I would like to be in English 29 to improve my English skills even more.
The Bystander Effect
Many years ago, i had an experience of "The Bystander Effect". I was living in an apartment complex. One afternoon i went to outside to throw the trash away, when i saw two men fighting over a parking space. At first they were arguing, and then they started physically fighting. This situation frightened me a lot and i didn't know how to react, I wanted to stop them before anything worst happened. I thought about calling the police and I ran inside my apartment but on my way inside I ran into a neighbor and he said "Don't do anything". Afterwards, there was around 15 around them and none of them got involved. Finally, they stopped fighting and everyone went back inside their apartment. Fortunately, none of them got really hurt.

STRESS IS A NEGATIVE EFFECT ON HEALTH
Stress is the body's reaction to any change that require adjustment or response. The body reacts to these
changes physical, mental, or emotionally. For example, stress can make the person susceptible to mental illnesses such as depression and anxiety. The body's ability to perform decreases considerably. People under stress often face difficulty in sleeping. They lose sleep and are unable to relax. Stress can also impair the immune system, it can make people more vulnerable to illness. Stress raises blood pressure and people can increase the risk of stroke and heart attack. Headache and diabetes are another negative effects of stress.
Although, stress is a negative condition that affect many people, it can be avoided by making exercises, by practicing yoga meditation, or in a severe condition by taking a doctor's help.
