These questions are designed to help students practice their conversation skills while gaining valuable information about the destination.

A Personal Mission Statement is a concise (usually 1-3 sentences) summary of your core values, aspirations, and the impact you want to make in life. It's your personal guiding principle, a compass that helps you navigate decisions and goals. Unlike a resume objective statement focusing on a specific job, a Personal Mission Statement is broader, encompassing your entire life journey.

Here's what a Personal Mission Statement typically captures:

Values: What principles are most important to you? (e.g., honesty, creativity, helping others)
Goals: What do you want to achieve in life? (e.g., build a strong family, make a positive difference in the world, achieve financial security)
Impact: How do you want to be remembered? What legacy do you want to leave behind?
Crafting a Personal Mission Statement is a self-discovery process. Reflect on what motivates you, what brings you joy, and the kind of person you want to be. Here are some prompts to get you started:

What are my strengths and passions?
What kind of world do I want to contribute to?
What impact do I want to have on the lives of others?
Remember, a Personal Mission Statement is a living document. It can evolve as you grow and your priorities shift. Reviewing it regularly can help you stay focused and make choices aligned with your true north.

Here's an example of a Personal Mission Statement:

To use my creativity and passion for science to develop innovative solutions that address environmental challenges, leaving a sustainable future for generations to come. 
This statement highlights the core value of environmental responsibility, the goal of innovation, and the desired impact of a sustainable future.

こんにちは～！マルハバ！サウジの日本語の先生、佳子です＾＾
みなさんー！元気ですかー？
私は物欲が少ないほうだと思うのですが、ここ2か月ほどいろいろ買うものがあって、ショッピングモールやオンラインショップでたくさん買い物をしてます。
優柔不断なのでちょっと疲れましたが、元気です！
今日は「サウジでの買い物」について話したいと思いまーす！

私、日本では服とか靴とかファッション系のものは、絶対直接お店で見て買っていたんですが、サウジに来て何でもオンラインで買い物することが増えました。なんでかというと、サウジのショッピングモールの店には試着室がないことが多いからです。お店にない代わりに、トイレの横に試着室があります。つまり、一旦購入してから試着しないといけないです。そのかわり、返品・交換ポリシーは2週間ほどある場合がほとんどで、家に持って帰って試着も可能です。日本の場合は、確か、簡単に返品はできないと思います。返品・交換がフレキシブルなのはありがたいのですが、「一旦購入」というプロセスをちょっとためらう時があります。
あと、夕方以降は混むので、よく14時までに行くことが多いですが、お客さんが少ないので、時間によっては空いていないこともあります。小さいお店の場合、スタッフの休憩時は一旦閉まります。数年前まではもっと閉まる時間が多かったので、閉まる時間を見て買い物に行かなければならず、とても不便でしたが、今はほとんどの店が一日に何回も店を閉めることが少なくなりました。
私はいろいろ迷ってしまうタイプなので、ファッション系の買い物には時間がかかっちゃうんですよね～。だから、できるだけオンラインショッピングするようになったんです。どうしても、お店で買いたい場合は、ショッピングモールに行きます。サウジのショッピングモールには、場所によっては一日遊び放題の大きなプレイグラウンドがあったりするので、いつも子供をそこで遊ばせながら、買い物します。
今日はシルバーのイヤリングが欲しくて、ショッピングモールに行きました。2時間くらい迷ってついに購入！ショッピングモールでの買い物はたくさん歩けるからいい運動になっていいですね♪
みなさんは、ショッピングモールで買い物は好きですか？
それではまた！マア　アッサラーマ！

Hit the Ground Running and Other English Phrases

In this episode we will learn a Chinsee song called "错位时空"， which means Dislocation of time and space. Let's sing and learn!  
--------------------------------------------------
大家好，我是Yuli。欢迎收听我的播客。我平时喜欢听歌，有一些中文歌曲我觉得很好听，歌词也很美，想和大家分享一下。今天我们要听的这首歌叫《错位时空》，2021年1月发行后就在网上爆红，到处都可以听到这首歌。希望你喜欢。
《错位时空》
填不满半排观众的电影
直到散场时突然亮起灯
字幕定格在某某出品和发行
我目送 他们行色匆匆
像个自不量力的复读生
完不成金榜题名的使命
命不是猜剪刀石头布的决定
那么任性
我吹过你吹过的晚风
那我们算不算 相拥
可如梦初醒般的两手空空
心也空
我吹过你吹过的晚风
是否看过同样 风景
像扰乱时差留在错位时空
终是空 是空
数不完见证许愿的繁星
没灵验谁来安慰坏心情
十字路口闪烁不停的信号灯
有个人 显然心事重重
三个字 只能说给自己听
仰着头不要让眼泪失控
哪里有可以峰回路转的宿命
我不想听
我吹过你吹过的晚风
那我们算不算 相拥
可如梦初醒般的两手空空
心也空
我吹过你吹过的晚风
是否看过同样 风景
像扰乱时差留在错位时空
终是空 是空
我吹过你吹过的晚风
空气里弥漫着 心痛
可我们 最后 在这错位时空
终成空
我吹过你吹过的晚风
空气里弥漫着 心痛
可我们 最后 在这错位时空
终成空 成空
