Futsal Reflection Term 1

Image
Date: 1/9/2020-12/12/2020. Total duration: 2 hours x 2 times per week x 12 weeks = 48 hours. I'm a huge football fan and I couldn't find anyone to practice with for a few months so my friend Ahmed told me about the futsal sessions he attended near his community. I was very excited and decided to join him for a trial class and I thoroughly enjoyed it. Although it was tiring, I did feel elevated at the end of the sessions. I continued to attend futsal practice sessions twice per week on either Tuesdays or Thursdays for the past 3 months. The sessions would last 2 hours, where we would make 2 teams and play against each other in an indoor court.  I developed my footballing skills and my fitness levels through the 3 months as well as making many new friends and having a lot of fun! I won't be able to go to practices for the next term as the indoor arena is under maintenance and will be closed. I will try to compensate by going to the local park to play a game of football instea...

Term 1 Cycling Reflection

Image
Date: 1/9/20 - 12/12/20. Total duration: Approx. 40 minutes x 50 days = 2000 minutes = 33 hours 20 minutes. Cycling to school has been great. Instead of taking a car or event the bus, cycling is the best for the environment and also for my health. I've been very lazy and have gotten less exercise especially during the coronavirus which has stopped me from going out as often so cycling to school is vital to keeping me fit. Cycling to school takes nearly 20 minutes and then also 20 minutes to get back so I get 40 minutes of exercise every weekday at least. It's a 4.2-kilometre journey each way so I end up cycling 8.4 kilometres each weekday.

Economics Website Entry 1: Starting Economics Website

Image
Date: 10/27/2020. Duration: 2 hours I have always found Economics to be an interesting subject and since I enjoy studying Economics, I decided to create a small website where students can access all IB Economic Resources. I've decided to work with my friend Ahmed, Abinav and Ria to create PowerPoints so students can easily understand key concepts. I've used Google's blogger software to create an outline of the website. We are yet to upload anything significant on it but we plan to do so soon. This is the website link: https://ibdpeconomicsrevision.blogspot.com Some pictures:

 Today, I stayed up to watch the Premier League, Manchester United-Chelsea game. It was a dull game with no goals from either side but I wrote up a match report on my Manchester United blog. (https://usefulmanunews.blogspot.com/2020/10/dull-draw-played-out-vs-chelsea.html)
