The Importance of Drinking Enough Water

How much do you drink water today? Water is often considered

insignificant but beyond that, it turns out that water has essential roles for
our body. There are several reasons why you need to drink enough water
every day.

Firstly, our body fluid is replenished by drinking the water. Water

is used by the body to digest food and helps to transport essential nutrients
throughout the body. Besides, body fluid is also useful for producing saliva
and regulating body temperature.

Secondly, water improves the kidneys' function. Our kidneys

process 200 liters of blood in our body every day. They also filter out
waste from the blood in the form of urine and deliver it to the bladder. To
do all the tasks, they need enough water to clean anything unnecessary for
our bodies.

Thirdly, drinking water helps to moisturize our skin. It makes our

skin feel fresh, soft, and smooth.

Lastly, drinking enough water a day can improve the function of

our brain. It helps us to concentrate more and unleash the nervous system
in the brain.

In conclusion, drinking enough water is important because about

60 percent of our body is water. It helps to improve the kidneys and brain
function and is good to keep skin healthy.

“Honey What is for Supper?”

An elderly gentleman of 85 feared his wife was getting hard of hearing. So

one day he called her doctor to make an appointment to have her hearing
checked.

The Doctor made an appointment for a hearing test in two weeks, and
meanwhile there’s a simple informal test the husband could do to give the
doctor some idea of the state of her problem.

“Here’s what you do,” said the doctor. “Start out about 40 feet away from
her, and in a normal conversational speaking tone see if she hears you. If
not, go to 30 feet, then 20 feet, and so on until you get a response.”

That evening, the wife is in the kitchen cooking dinner, and he’s in the
living room. He tries to ask, “Honey, what’s for supper?”

No response.

So the husband moved to the other end of the room, about 30 feet from his
wife and repeats, “Honey, what’s for supper?”

Still no response.
Next he moves into the dining room where he is about 20 feet from his
wife and asks, “Honey, what’s for supper?”

Again he gets no response.

So he walks up to the kitchen door, only 10 feet away. “Honey, what’s for
supper?”

Again there is no response.

So he walks right up behind her. “Honey, what’s for supper?”

“Jesus Earl, for the fifth time: CHICKEN!”

Why Students Should Manage Their Stress
Stress among student can be caused by interpersonal which includes the
factor like relationships with family and friend or because of the academic itself.
Workload of college, difficult tests, and other academic obstacles may also lead to
stress. Thus, stress among students can be dangerous for several reasons. Firstly,
major negative effect of stress is on emotional health.

Emotional health problem is more dangerous than physical health problem

because it can lead to most disastrous effects of all that is committing suicide.
Emotional or mental health is an expression of our emotions and signifies a failure
adaptation to the range of demands in life. The stressful life events can lead to all
the failure just by conquering our mind. Thus, it is very important to maintain our
mental and emotional health because once our emotional health was disturbed, it
can lead to various of diseases such as depression, anxiety, emotional eating,
anger and so on.

The second disastrous effect of stress to an individual especially students

is on academic performance. Actually, this effect affected students beyond their
thinking. Once they are in stress they have difficulty to concentrate on their study
and finally their result will ruin because they cannot do well in their exams. That
is how their academic performance shows such negative improvement from day to
day because they cannot manage their stress well. Therefore, stress can be
dangerous to student’s life. For those reasons, it is better that we should find the
causes of stress which we are going through, know the bad effect that we may
face and take actions to manage it.
