Comparison Paragraph


SCHOOL AND COLLEGE
College is an education phase that has a significant leap forward with the previous phase of senior high school. Many differences between college and school that sometimes make new students become quite "shocked" by the existing system, such as in learning system. There are some differences between school and college when viewed from learning system. First, judging from the time of learning, school is administered for 6 days with a fixed time from morning to afternoon with two breaks. While in college, learning carried out an average of 5 days with no fixed time each day with an accumulation less time than school. Second, judging from the subjects, at school, during the three years subjects that presented  each semester will be the same ad the difference is only the substance. In college, courses that are taken per semester will vary according to weight ration and credits taken. Third, judging from the dress uniform. In school, we have to wear uniforms, but on campus, we are free to wear anything from polite and appropriate regulations. In sum, school and college have the same goal. Both of them are place to learn, it is only has different in learning system.

The Causes of Stress


How often have you felt stress? People tend to experience stress if they have a problem. Actually, trivial things can make us stress and can be caused in many factors. The first cause is Laptop. Many tasks often make us have to bring them at home. The result, time to rest and chat with family are reduced, instead we spent back in front of laptop. If we are in front of it, our arms and shoulders become tense and the roar of breath even faster. And also reading too much information can make us stress, and can affect the physical condition of the body. The second is Bedroom. Actually, it is the most convenient place to rest. Therefore, we should be able to create a comfortable bedroom. Do not used to put clothes and other items on the bed. The messy condition of the bedroom will be one factor that makes us difficult to be happy, until culminate stress. The third is little friend. Actually, having a pet will make our lives more colorful and happy. However, when our little friend has started acting up to disrupt our sleep patterns and make the house messy, it will also lead to stress. Regardless of its cause, stress is bad condition that needs to be taken seriously.
