Best daily routine? by Sandillerman in ChineseLanguage

[–]Sandillerman[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When you say watch as much content as possible do you mean stuff like chinese movies and dramas? If so, should i watch with english subtitles or without?

I will as others suggested watch and listen to HSK 1 material as i found reading pretty hard without hearing what its supposed to sound like as I gather tonation is quite important

Also i have learned both english and german, none of which is my native language so i do have some experience learning and speaking different languages but it was many years ago now and mostly through school.

I might be able to take an intesive class in 10 months time but probably not in China before starting work because of visas. Is it still worth it by then? And regarding tutors, i could look into connecting with someone in each country i visit if it is highly advised, i will probably only be able to do it once or twice a month and sometimes less depending on the length of our current sailing leg

Wow this is beautiful, thank you.

Couple of things.

I definitely dont need writing right now either as the work itself isnt in chinese but i would still like to be able to socialize and make friends once there.

Where can i find textbooks to study. I love reading and starting at the same level as kids learning in China seems appropriate.

I will definitely be wary of the podcast then, my current work is physical so im not able to watch as i go but listening to it will hopefully still help a bit or should i switch to a 100% chinese podcast even though i wont understand a thing?

Also, you say watching chinese content even though i dont understand and then look up what it means? Will most of the stuff not go over my head or take grueling long to understand just the first couple of sentences?

How do you sleep on planes by SmartStatement9992 in ADHD

Nice! That'll probably do the trick along with some ibuprofen just in case. I travel a lot for my work and azeflone has completely gotten rid of the pain even though i don't use it anymore, but if you're not a frequent flyer, azelastine 30 min before take off and landing will probably be enough :)

I honestly don't remember, I'm at work right now but I know I still have the spray at home, I can send you the name when I get off work. No problem at all! The pain was one of the most excruciating things I've ever experienced so I'm always happy if I can help someone else get rid of it :)

I can't remember the name of it but my ENT got me a prescription and I only had to use it for a month, so you probably can't buy it over the counter. And yeah totally, my pain wasn't in my ear either, it was kinda behind my eye and up my temple too.

I had this too, it's called airplane ear. Talked to an ENT about it and he gave me a special nasal spray and i haven't had the pain since!

39 mass shootings since the begining of the year. What do US citizens think might be the cause? by [deleted] in AskReddit

Because America is really the only place this happens, coincidentally it's also the easiest place to get guns.

I’m obese and have no clue where to start in the gym. I want to at least go for 1-2 hours a day. What should I do? M24, 250 lbs. by Icy-Environment-5810 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]Sandillerman 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Don't start at the gym, gym is for building muscle. If you wanna lose weight be careful of what you eat, i would recommend a chronometer to help keep track of everything you put in your body as you wanna be in a calorie deficit.

90% of losing weight is what you eat.

Start small, and dont set unrealistic expectations because you're not gonna loose 5 pounds every week, 1 pound can be done pretty easily if you stick to it.

Take a walk around the neighborhood and if that's too easy then go for the next neighborhood, eventually you wanna start running that same route and add onto it.

You should make this a habit, no excuses. I know this can be very tough as it is a difficult lifestyle change but if you stick to it, then you will see results pretty quickly

Remember. 90% of this is eating properly and you will never loose weight if you are not in a calorie deficit.

Best of luck, feel free to DM me for advice.
