Favorite Clothing

Clothing is to identify the human personality. Many people flaunt their expensive clothing in the latest seasonal style. Instead of looking for the latest fashionable clothing, I look for consistency and comfort. During the winter season, I love to wear my brown fitting jacket that suits me and reflects a good personality. I was pretty attracted with the outer design look when I was gone for shopping and I bought it for Rs.3500. Talking about the clothes that I wear is all of fitting types, I liked wearing those kind of dresses and I hate wearing hip-hop clothes.

During the summer season, I like to wear thin clothes of T-shirts and pants. My color choice for T-shirt is of sky gray color and jeans of sky blue color. My styles for different occasions differs, I like wearing a matching clothes top to bottom like combination of same color in all at least in a small portion of like print in T-shirts or shoes. For the party occasions, I don’t wear jeans and T-shirts. Among the shoes, I love my converse very much because I felt it so comfortable while wearing than other shoes and it is of gray color too as my favorite color for T-shirt. My belt mostly that I wear with my jeans is also of gray color. In morning during my vacation, I often used to go for jogging with my friends so even at that time I wear a matching color combination dresses. 

So, from overall description of my some favorite clothes it is clear that I love wearing the same combination of color dresses. It’s my casual style of wearing clothes on different occasions differently. Compare to my winter clothes for summer, I have many clothes to wear mainly my different styles collection of printed T-shirts.

Difference Between Fear and Respect

Emotions play an important role in our daily lives. Fear is one such obnoxious emotion caused by the belief that someone or something is unsafe whereas Respect is something that can be earned through someone’s feelings, needs, ideas and wishes into consideration. In fact, giving someone respect is same as of reflection, earning a respect from others too. As the word fear is the thought of danger on human and respect is the good feelings showing to others.
As human, the presence of fear is always on us, it can be real or imaginary depending on a misperception of a situation which leads to feel anxiety and insecure causes a toxic in our life. Respect is a nurturing a care and encouraging others for the development. Fear destroys the self-confidence of one’s but Respect re-builds it. Fear is life-threatening and Respect is life-enhancing. Fear is a sense of force generating more and more by a little and   Respect is earned by more and more respect to others. Panic is an immediate physical response to unrealistic and irrational fears which can have a huge affect on both emotional and physical well-being. Respect is easier to lose then it is to gain as it can be lost in an instant one word, one decision or one action. People can spend their whole lives thinking of ways to earn respect, but unless they do something they will never get it. It is hard for people to get good jobs if they are not respectable.
Everyone who seeks success in life should shield their mind from fear thought. In the meantime, their mind is totally devoid of positive thoughts which are so vital to success. In contrast, respect is something everyone wants and something no-one wants to lose. So, fear can be considered as of destruction and respect as success in life.

Difference Between Arrogance and Confidence

Human nature differs from one another even though there might found some similarities, the presence of one’s behavior or character plays a great role to distinguish them. Everyone tries to be a good person but only an inner goodness would have a good image in society or in front of other people. So, in our life confidence level is very important to achieve goals but the over confidence might leads to developing an arrogance level which is not good.
 Arrogance can be considered as a behavior of a person when they feel like they are more important than other people, so that they are rude or do not consider them. Confidence is a belief on own ability to do things successfully and the trust in others too. Arrogance shows behaving in a proud way which is not found in confidence. Arrogant character reflects upon no any thought for others only think about themselves. In our life, to live a happy life success is very important so our confidence level always struggles a lot to achieve it but what’s the use of it because more and more success automatically leads some person to arrogant character. There is some similarities between arrogance and confidence that both beliefs on own abilities but the way of behaving distinguish them only meanings are similar, in a real scenario it’s totally different.
So, from overall description it is clear that there’s a lot of difference between arrogance and confidence level on human beings. Confidence level is more important in our life to achieve success believing on owns thought with no nervousness but the over confidence can lead one individual to an arrogance level too which might cause a destruction in life. So, it’s better to be confident on doing anything then being arrogant.

Green IT

The paper “Green IT: keeping it simple” begins with a questionnaire to a reader by Michelle Hazelton what a Green IT is about? The research of green IT for Ethical Property Company approached to the positive changes that can be made with less cost and effort, leads to an auditing of company’s IT equipment and energy consumption sectors. The objective was to find out the time periods when energy consumption was highest along with its consumption power. The research criteria revealed that 60 per cent of the building's energy is consumed when the building is mostly unoccupied even though a PC and monitor that have been switched off still draw on average 20 watts of power which resultants to the wastage of energy. The solution to be carried out is to switch off the equipments at the plug.

Now, getting into WEEE directive, energy efficiency and IEEE standards, it was of quite interesting part exploring new things. While using Energy Calculator for PC Equipments, I found there were three options (PC, Monitor, and Use) that could be selected as per our choice and after pressing Calculate automatically it generates the Total costs split-up and Energy split-up. Glancing to IEEE standards evaluation, EPEAT was being introduced an environmental rating that helps identify greener computers and other electronic equipment. EPEAT is a chance to showcase and validate greener designs and cleaner production with powerful tools for enhancing the sustainability performance of virtually any organization.

First Week Experience

After the completion of a first Semester and a long vacation, journey for my second semester had begun from 19th February. This semester holds four different modules with four different importances for computing. We had crossed the first week and now running on a second week.

In first week, for a module named “Personal Development for Computing” the lecture began on a slight introduction to a module and we were informed that it’s fully based on an assessment type of an individual and a group works covering 50-50 marks from overall total which verifies only an individual effort is not enough a group work is equally important as well. In tutorial, we were given a task to discuss the ability of graduated students in computing and we were also informed about should form a group to make a simple website for presentation. In lab, an individual speech was to be presented on any one chosen topic based on a graduated student’s ability in computing. I was second person to present on the importance of computational thinking and its relevance to everyday life but before jumping on my topic I was first asked to review my friend’s opinion on designing computer based systems. And I enjoyed listening to everyone who presented their views on a certain chosen topic and rest of some other friends doesn’t have a chance to present their opinions due to less time duration. After the completion of doing presentation we were given a task to write a blog on a 1st week achievement.

So, a first week was of quite interesting one, all the lecture, tutorial and lab was of similar to our previous semester and while doing a presentation I was not too nervous as I used be before. I am pretty sure that this module would help me developing more skills and knowledge on writing and doing presentation work for my academic development.

Programming Language

Programming Language is a language which is understandable by computer to perform its work as per the given instruction provided by human beings. For the development of application, scripts or any kinds of instruction for computer to execute, programmers are fully depended on programming languages like C++, Java, Visual Basic, HTML, SQL, etc.

As being a keen interest on using a computers from since the first time I had used in my life. After my completion of +2 levels from a management background for the further Bachelor Degree I have chosen a BSc. (Hons) Computing in Islington College. From my high-school level I have gained the concept of using a C++ programming language which I enjoyed on doing coding like I was playing a game that passion increase on me and has become a hobby for me playing with the coding. I have some knowledge about HTML and Visual Basic too but now I am mainly focusing on a Java programming language only because it’s the part of my course which I have learned during my first semester in Islington College. During the study of learning a Java programming language it was of easy one because we were taught some part of basics only. First, we started our Java from a Notepad and later we were taught to upgrade our java coding on a BlueJ. Now, I have been using Netbeans software to do my java programming and while working I have created one simple calculator. When I finished making my simple application of .jar file type I was so happy because for the first time I have created one application by myself.

The concept of doing programming to develop applications I love to do it because it has been a passion on me. And I have chosen computing course thinking I would have a good career in the coming future. So from Islington, I have lots of hope to learn many new things in the field of computing.

Academic Development after 8th Week

My Academic Development during the period after I have crossed the 8th Week is a proficient along with precipitately work experience. During the period of 9th week to until 13th week touching the line to finish our first semester for the Computing course. So, before the completion of our first semester we had to do many struggling.

When we moved to 9th week for a module named “Problem Solving for IT” we were given a 2nd Coursework whose deadline was to be submitted in 18th January. The coursework was related to create a spreadsheet and database design concept which was to be done on Ms-Excel, Ms-Access and Ms-Word. For me, doing a spreadsheet in Ms-Excel and preparing a report in Ms-Word it was of easy one but while creating a database in Ms-Access I had a problem with the queries concept and was not being able to do my database. Finally, at the last moment in a deadline day thanks to my friend who helped me to solve my queries problem and after its completion I mailed it to my tutor on time. While moving to the next week again there was a released of 2nd Coursework for a module named “Introduction to Programming” whose deadline was to be submitted in 20th January. The coursework was of preparing a Java code and upgrading it on software BlueJ; I completed this work on time by myself and submitted on time in a deadline day. In the 11th week, there was a writing test for a module “Logic” and a final presentation for “Study Skills for Computing”. In 13th week, we have to submit our Personal Statement, Personal Development Planning (PDP) and posting of at least 5 blogs too.

So, overall doing all the stuffs I have described above after 13th week our first semester would be on complete and will be enjoying our 1 month vacation until second semester begins.
