 In communicating difference, I will answer this following question:

"Can your workplace be considered multicultural? Why or why not?"

I would say yes. I work at the Brick. It is a furniture/mattresses/electronics store. Over there, I work with people from a lot of different backgrounds. They all diverse across all departments, and which I think offers them equal opportunity for input and advancement within the company. I think the benefits of having multicultural workplace is that it will encourages open dialogue which creates understanding, collaboration and team work among staff. Above all, multiculturalism also demonstrates tolerance, respect and acceptance which improves company culture and reduces conflict within the workplace.

Telling Tales I am going to share with you guys the power of compounding. Most of us is in the early 20s. We probably have not think about our retirement yet. Lately I have been learning more about investing and discover the power of compound interest. Here's a gif from the balance to explain more about it.  One compound interest example: Let’s say if you are in the age 20, invested $1,000 today. If you didn’t touch it until you retired at age 70, your money could increase by 32 times. That means that you could end up with around $32,000. (Assuming growth rate of around 7%) But what if you waited another 10 years. Let say you were 30 years old and invest that $1,000 and leave it be until retirement? In that case, you’d only end up with half as much as above, just $16,000. And if you waited until 40? That’d cut the amount you’d be left with in half again: around $8,000.  BUT what if you were to invest that $1,000 at age 20 and contribute $83 a month (around $1,000 a year) until...

  This is the picture that I pick for the exercise today. I first saw this picture around 2016 as a photo winner for wildlife photo contest I think. Three tools to analyze an image: modality ("the input") A photograph about white rhino, an endangered species that almost goes to extinction. verisimilitude ("its realness") Look real, blended in to the background. I can tell that the white rhino look lonely. claim about the world ("the argument") This picture shows the white rhino camouflages to the nature. I think the message here is to save the endangered species that still around as they are on the edge of extinction.

     Welcome to my final portfolio. I went through all of my free creations and picked on 5 specific favorites from the duration of this course. These rankings are based on my personal enjoyment writing about the topic and sharing my thoughts, as well as on how relevant I believe they were to class discussions. I added hyperlink to each of the title that go directly to the specific posts.      Before going through each of them, I would like to explain the method I have been using through my posts. First of all, I chose to use blogspot to post my free creations because I think blogspot is the simplest and probably the oldest online blog-publishing service (since 1999). I also used blogspot before for my other school project, which an advantage for me since I'm already familiar with the platform.      I decided to keep my home page as plain as possible because I like it simple. I prefer my blog to be basic without many distractions from colors ...
